Chime allowed someone from XXXX XXXX to steal money out of my account. They charge my account XXXX XXXX times at the same time. I got a text messages asking was it me and I said no. I got a response email stating that the money wouldnt be deducted from my account after it drop from pending. After XXXX days of pending it still came out of my account. I could filed a dispute with and agent and after XXXX days my dispute was denied. I called spoke with a another agent and ask to speak with a manager. After speaking with the manager she stated that it looked like fraud or an computer glitch and that she would personally submit a dispute and have it escalated after i submit proof that i was in XXXX  and not XXXX XXXX and never heard of the place where my card was used and after waiting a few days my dispute was denied again. I called again for XXXX  time and spoke with another supervisor and again after filing a dispute it was denied. Chime bank is a scam and they need to be held accountable. This is ridiculous. I submitted proof closed my old card requested a new one and they still won't give me money back. I never dealt with anything like this with any other bank ever. They don't want to help and I feel like they are not investigating and thing they wait a day or XXXX and deny it your claim. After reading some of these testimony on the bbb I now see that I'm not alone and other have experience the same thing. I wouldn't be surprised to see a class action loss suit being filed against them just like the one against XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I will be filing a claim against chime bank with the ( CFPB ) the consumer financial protection bureau. Asap! Times are hard and you can't play with people hard earn money like that. I have been fighting to get my money back since XX/XX/XXXX this is crazy. They really need to be investigeted this in unethical. And bad business practices. How can anyone ever trust them to hold their money.
