Consumer Narrative
XXXX Overdraft fee for a fraudulent charge. I contacted Chime they stated that the charges were valid. I expressed that these are not the charges I swiped my card for. Several months had passed, XX/XX/XXXX, I get an email stated that XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXl had refunded the charges due to fraud. Chime refused to update my credit report for charges that they approved. XXXX sent them a check for the entire balance and Chime will not update my credit report or reopening my credit-builder account. Now, months later on XX/XX/XXXX, A deposit from the Small Business Association attempted to deposit my loan for my small business but however, Chime declined the deposit. After denying the deposit 2 months later without an email, a text, or phone call, my account was closed and I am still unable to access my funds. On XX/XX/XXXX my account was closed with no communication of how to gain access to my funds. The only way I knew that my account was closed is on payday XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to pay my rent and my card kept declining. I attempted to log in to the app and it stated that I will have to contact XXXX to get access to your account again. It has been well over the 24 hours the email stated once I contacted the company via the email address. At this point, I will never use chime again. I will be filing some type of charges against them. I don't have any food or gas money. I had money in my account on top of my paycheck and my savings account. This is a thief.
