We are moving to Prescott, but still live out of state (some 3,000 miles away) until mid-June. We opened an account online, so we could transfer funds and use the account to set up utilities and such in Prescott. We transferred money into our new account from our current account where we live. Once it was transferred out of our account, I logged into the new Chase account to see if it had arrived. I could not access the account as it was suddenly blocked for suspicious activity. We'd received no notice that it was blocked, so if we hadn't checked ourselves, we would have never known.
We have tried to reach someone on the phone for 3 days now, spending some 6 hours total on hold! Everyone we get through to a human being, either they cannot help us, they put us into another queue (another hour or more on hold), or they hang up on us. One of the reps actually told us that they doubted they could get hold of a manager because it was ALMOST closing time. Realy??? Then, after waiting another 20 minutes on hold, the system hung up on us -- couldn't take our call.
This is the WORST customer service we have ever encountered. We cannot go to the branch for assistance because we are some 3,000 miles away and packing up to move. We have no idea whether our funds ever arrived in the account or where those funds are or why the account is blocked -- because it is blocked, no one can tell us anything and they cannot fix it! Now I have contacted my current bank to find out if they can trace and cancel the transfer. At least they will call me back when it's my turn in the queue.
Totally dissatisfied with Chase Banking!
NOTE: This is no reflection on the actual branch as I have never been there. Sorry -- but I had to put this review somewhere. read more
