Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
On or about XXXX XXXX, 2022, Chime unilaterally closed my checking account without any prior notice or warning to me. 

I only learned of the closure when I tried to log in to my Chime account and saw a pop-up message that my account was closed and to contact Chime. I received no prior notice from Chime about the account closure. I also never received any communication from Chime that there was any issue with my account or that I need to verify/confirm anything. 

I had {$700.00} in the account when it was unilaterally closed by Chime. 

Upon learning of the closure, I immediately emailed Chime to confirm what happened ( the email is attached ). Chime responded that they could not tell me why my checking account was closed and that I am " not eligible for refund '' of my own money. Chime did not provide any reason and instead referred me to " review the section titled XXXX and XXXX in the Chime XXXX Account XXXX : https : //www.chime.com/policies/. '' The policy that Chime cites actually provides that Chime is to return any remaining balance in the account within 14 days of closure. Even without this clause in the agreement, I am confident it is illegal to withhold and not return customer 's money. 

I did not do anything wrong or illegal to justify the closure and withholding of my hard-earned money. Again, Chime did not ask me to provide any documents or verifications and did not alert me that there was something wrong with my account. 

Upon learning of the account closure, I searched online and saw that Chime has been in the news for closing accounts and refusing to return customer 's money, and I am among thousands of affected consumers. I also searched the CFPB database and saw that thousands of consumers filed complaints similar to mine. 

Chime violated my trust and I no longer want to have any business with this institution. I only want my hard-earned money back. 

I am asking you to kindly assist me in getting my money ( {$700.00} ) back I had in my checking account with Chime. I am also asking you to investigate Chime 's pattern of closing customers ' accounts and retaining customers ' money. 

Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern : I have made all the payments and more to Bank of America. They have falsified the reporting to the credit agencies, closed my account and hurt my credit. 

I have showed them in their own emails and website that I have paid. They still don't believe me. They said I need to see them in your checking account. I am trying to get the statements and try to show them. Meanwhile they have closed my account and caused harm. 

This along with many other banks is the most dysfunctional bank I have ever dealt with. I need your help to have them restore the account and restore my credit with the credit agencies.
