Horrible bank! I have never dealt with such a crappy bank. I could go on forever with some of their issues, but I will highlight my last experience. I got a new computer and it took me three tries to access my Chase online account for security measures. Then I tried to input an external account to transfer some money to. That took 10 days and three attempts. They finally got it worked out and I verified the account, then I made a small transfer. They denied the transfer shortly thereafter and locked me out of my account. I called the security number given on the lock out notice and was told I needed a debit card number to talk to somebody. It's a business account and I don't use a debit card for it. I finally got through upon the forth attempt. On this occasion, I was asked 3 security questions, including one that involved companies I was involved with in the past. I had never heard of any of these companies yet they tell me I failed the verification. . On the fifth try of calling them, I spoke to a helpful person that took 25 minutes to resolve the issue. He told me this happens all the time and their security system is very "tight" and doesn't let people transfer out of the bank on most occasions. This sounds highly suspicious and more like a play where they want to keep your money and not a security concern. If Chase has trouble verifying another bank at their size, why do all these smaller banks not have any issues doing it???.
This afternoon I am driving over to the Chase branch and will probably spend another hour and a half trying to close my account, but I am out of this insanity. As a point of reference, I have worked for Wells Fargo, Bank Of America, and two local banks. I have never seen Issues such as what Chase has. They take forever to do anything for you, their Customer Service people don't really care, and their system, highly technical, has major issues. Stay away from these people! read more
