In the year 2000 I acquired a Chase Mastercard.in April I decided to make my payments through a reputable debt consolidation program. I made payments thru this program for approximately a year and a half until July @ which time Chase decided to sue me via Superior Court.
I contacted an attorney to find out what was going on as I was totally surprised by this.in speaking with Chase's legal department, my attorney was told that they had never accepted my payment agreement and also my payments were supposed to be $63.71 in lieu of $56.00. This was news to myself and my attorney as Chase received electronic debits from the credit counseling service each month; however, never did they request the credit counseling firm or myself for an extra payment of $7.71 per month.
Needless to say, I was shocked that a company would go to that much trouble for an extra $7.71 per month; especially due to the fact they never notified us (the assistant in their legal department, Ms. Smith also confirmed that they never notified myself or the credit counselor). At this point, I believed this was illegal in some way. I was then instructed by Ms. Smith that I would be receiving an arbitration agreement in the mail and would have to make payments to Chase via a third party. The paperwork did not come before the next payment was due; therefore, I sent my payment directly to Chase as I did not have the necessary payment information they had promised. Low and behold the paperwork showed up a few days later, after I sent a letter requesting it.
Meanwhile, I decided to retain an attorney to file a bankruptcy (largely in part due to my problems with Chase). I figured if a company was to be so rude, they would not get another penny of my money! I retained an attorney and notified Chase in August. They then sent paperwork in September to garnish my wages, pretending they had heard nothing from me prior. I again notified them of the bankruptcy to no avail. Guess what! The latest stunt Chase has pulled is they attached my bank account! They just don't give up! I would never recommend Chase to anyone!
Terrible work ethic! Dishonesty abounds!
