Consumer Narrative
XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) I've had Chime over 3 years if not 4 now and I'm having issues with them limiting my account and holding MY HARD EARNED FUNDS. They put " security measures '' on my account because I made ATM withdrawals ( Even though my DAILY ATM WITHDRAWAL limit was {$1500.00}, DAILY ) to purchases a car because I couldn't go inside a location to make a withdrawal. I got an email asking what I did with the {$7000.00} withdrawals in 60 days which was none of their business but I let them know I purchased a vehicle. Then they asked me the SOURCE of MY FUNDS when I CLEARY get DIRECT DEPOSIT! XXXX got another email saying my account was limited for " unusual activities '' I called and asked for a supervisor and after about an hour finally got XXXX she was very rude and unhelpful. After still not receiving an email from them on XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX. I called back and spoke with a XXXX ( not a supervisor but she should be! ) XXXX was more friendly and helpful than the supervisor even though she couldn't do much, she still typed up a support ticket for me # XXXX. My next step is lawful action. I will warn new comers when you try to email and call to get the issues resolved you only speak to XXXX in XXXX COUNTRY??
