Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I was in contact with Chase Mortgage after my mortgage was accidentally paid XXXX  in XXXX. They advised me they would issue a refund in the amount of {$1800.00} for XXXX of the payments. This payment being made, made my checking account negative {$1800.00} as I was in the process of switching banks when this happened. Chase advised me my bank would have the funds in XXXX business days. When the funds were not received by my bank, I contacted Chase. At this point they told me they were not even able to tell me how the funds were supposedly sent. After about XXXX minutes of telling them that it was unacceptable that they could not give me information about how my money was sent, they escalated this issue to another team. From there I was able to find out that the money was supposedly sent via wire transfer. We did a XXXX way phone call with my bank where they confirmed they had not received any funds. Chase also gave them a tracking number to check with the Federal Reserve, and my bank was unable to find any trace of a wire ever being sent to them. I have had multiple other calls with Chase where they say they will request a refund, they will try to get the routing number and account number where the wire was sent, and I still have not received any of this information. Today I called them and they tried to tell me that they can not refund my money and they still can not tell me where they wire was sent. She said she was escalating this to Senior Management and some back office team to try and get information. Still I have nothing, and they have my money and are refusing to help me or give it back. Now my checking account is going to be charged off since it has been negative for so long, because Chase will not give me any information or give me my money back. I had to threaten legal action to even get this far with them.
