Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Following was sent to the credit card company, the CHASE Credit Card for South West Rapid Rewards on XX/XX/2022 with Certified Mail to the address shown on the 2nd page of the monthly bill where it says " What to do If You Think You Find A Mistake On Your Statement '', since then they have not replied at all. 

This is to inform you that there is an error in the billing statement dated XX/XX/2022 on my South West Rapid Rewards Credit Card due on XX/XX/2022 which I am disputing. It should be resolved immediately upon receipt of this dispute letter. 

I have made two on line purchases with a PO number XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2022 which is shown on the attached XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. It clearly shows on this document I was charged in the amount of {$920.00} which included the sales tax for the two items. Cost of each item before sales tax was {$390.00} and {$440.00} each. After adding the sales tax cost of the purchase was {$430.00} and {$490.00} for each item yielding to the total purchase amount of {$920.00}. 

Shortly after receipt of these on line items I have returned one of the items back to XXXX XXXX in person as shown on the VISA Statement in the amount of - {$430.00}. However, this amount for the returned item has not been deducted from the total balance due. Both purchase and returned items fall within the same statement period. Therefore, there is a serious error in the statement that I have received, dated due date of XX/XX/2022, this statement did not apply the returned item of - {$430.00} as credit. Yes, it shows it has been returned as - {$430.00} in the statement but it has not been applied as credit against the total purchase amount of {$920.00} and hasnt been deducted from {$920.00}. Total balance on this statement should have been {$490.00}.
