JP Morgan Chase Bank Complaint - Let's Make A Little Interest - Chase's check writing scam!

Chase's check writing scam! - Complaint
Review by softie on 2010-11-08
I recently tried to have Chase write my usual monthly checks. The check page would not allow me to go further because it said the date of sending the checks was too soon. I tried to change the date on the last three checks three times, but to no avail. Since their CPU would not let me go past the first page, I closed the session and wrote my checks by hand. That did not stop Chase from sending out the first four checks, and sending 2 checks to one creditor. ALL of my checks were marked as NSF, and I was charged a fee for each one and twice for the double check. Each check was paid with the exception of their interest check (mortgagr) which they could not charge me more interest for.

When I spoke to Chase reps, I was told that this was my fault and I have to pay for everything. This is definitely Chase at it's finest. I'm on S.S. and am 80 yrs young!

Chase-sucks.org is one of my favorite web sites.
You should post your bad experience with Chase there also.

Why do people always feel the need to mention that "I'm 80 and on SS" as if their personal plight should somehow mean they deserve special rules?

I don't know the whole story here. If the Chase website said the payments were cancelled then they are at fault, but most online billpay sites let you verify that the payments are pending and you can cancel them if you do it the same business day.

Hard to really say who's at fault here without more info.

Wouldn't put it past Chase, however, and I'd agree they probably should cut some slack unless you're a habitual overdrafter.

Motley> Amen! I have been preaching that forever on this site, about people tossing in that last bit of personal info, such as being 75-years old, or having their kids with them, mother-in-law waiting in the car on oxygen, etc...as if in some small way that should sway our bias towards them. Leave the personal stuff out, and just state the facts.

I dont know why people feel they need to give their money to these corporate money-hungry banks. Its almost as if these banks think its a "privelidge" to be giving them your money, while they are taking your money and screwing you over AND turning around and screwing OTHER people over with it too! There are so many other choices out there like community banks and credit unions, these corporate banks would be the LAST place i would put my money!
