Sincerely, XXXX Chase Email Servicing Original Message Follows : -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- CigProfileId:XXXX NAME : XXXX XXXX XXXX CUSTOMER USERTYPE : PR CUSTOMER TYPE : PER CUSTOMER DOMAININDICATOR : COL SITE : XXXX SEGMENT : POH SOURCE : COL Message Center CATEGORY TYPE : Service Fee Inquiry DOMAININDICATOR : COL ATTACHMENTSIZE:1 XXXX PCUSTSEG : POH PRODTYPE : RBG SMPODID : XXXX SERVICE FEE DATE:XX/XX/XXXX SERVICE FEE AMOUNT : {$1200.00} TYPE : PER ACCT TYPE : CHK This petition of assistance is about my joint account with my fiance XXXX Bank Account No. XXXX.Due to a variance in available cash, I have reviewed the report for XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and YTD : XXXX XXXX XXXX I noticed the high change at XXXX. It appears our most significant present was for - {$1200.00} in a dominoes of overprotection fees. 
First, I take full responsibility for these charges because of the hardship of finishing my XXXX in XXXX XXXX, family estate hijacking from my grandmother s XXXX  in XX/XX/XXXX, and unexpected XXXX  XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. Because of this, I was unable to finish school on time, return to work, or regularly review my wife 's account. 
Until school is finished in six weeks, the chase account is my secondary to my XXXX work and school stipend checking accounts for me to review. To complicate matters, My fianc is a XXXX  and works for the XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX concerns she has the added concern of XXXX which necessitates quite a few meds which can be challenging to routine financial matters. She is very busy, and I have not kept up with the account like I should have. 

This letter this letter is to mitigate my damages before approaching her she tends not to be tolerant of waste but as this account shows in a lack of refunds or calls or anything we tend not to complain. She will be pleased if I tried to resolve this matter in her favor. 

Considering XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX total half of the entirety of XX/XX/XXXX please this appears to be unusually high for her is there any way that you would consider the idea splitting XXXX XX/XX/XXXXholiday fees with me of {$1200.00}? Thereby refunding {$600.00} and putting the account positive. This mitigating act would allow me to retain the account for myself to invest in after graduation. 

approx {$2500.00} for XX/XX/XXXX, and {$570.00} for XX/XX/XXXXyear today. 

I want you to know that your services and tools or fantastic and enabled me to review the account very quickly. I hope this sounds reasonable and I have taken steps for this not to happen again with the XXXX account which seems to be the primary variable. Thank you for your time I appreciate it more than I can tell you.
