Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I opened a checking and a saving account with Chase using a promo code that I will get {$900.00} when I fulfill the direct deposit and saving requirements. But it turned out Chase didnt apply the promo code to my account. I am very sure I entered the promo code when I opened the accounts online. Then I submitted a request for investigation. I got a phone call from the investigation team and the person left a voice message and asked me to call back. I called back within the working hour but the person who left me a voice message didnt put any notes or memo for his colleagues. So I didnt get any updates when I called back. If he has no information for me, why did he ask me to call back and waste my time? I have 2 requests : 1. I request Chase to apply the promo code to my accounts so that I can get the promised {$900.00}. 
2. I also request an apology from Chase for the meaningless voice message that wasted my time.
