Consumer Narrative
I submitted disputes to Chime because I had a fraudulent charge from an online business. I explained I lost my phone and this is when the charge occurred. Chime denied my dispute. I submitted a rebuttal and provided chat history with the merchant explained it was a fraudulent charge and the merchant recommended I reach out to my bank institution. The chime customer service center continued to send the exact same email to me every time I asked for an update or provided more information. I called chime and they read a dialogue off their screen and every representative said the same information and did not help me. The managers all said the exact same thing to me and read a dialogue no matter what I said. They recommended I reach out to the same email that would send me the same response no matter what I submitted or explained. I asked for the corporate number and I was denied this information. I asked for another manager and was always told there was no other manager for me to speak to. I never received help and along with chime I submitted a dispute to my other bank and they closed out the case in my favor with the same information provided. I provided this documentation from the other bank to chime and I continued to get the same response and no further help with my case.
