Chase cancels a balance transfer for customer that had not missed a payment nor been late in the past five years until a small mistake was made.
Five years of pretty good payment history, never late, and one mistake, so a customer transferred the amount on the account they were late by a couple of days on to Chase bank.
Is this a way to prevent consumers from saving their low interest rate accounts by refusing balance transfers once a good paying customers finally makes a mistake? With Chase Bank, one never knows.

Just another day in the land of Chase Bank is too big to care about lawsuits from their best paying customers who are never late on their payments.

RALLY IN TALLY, FLORIDA HOMEOWNERS GOING to Tallahassee and the Florida State Capitol, APRIL 21, 2010 To Be Heard, and you are INVITED.
The Rally in Tally information below comes from Shame The Banks dot org. You can find the original article by clicking here. Below are the main headlines from Shame the Banks dot org.
If you live in Florida and are a homeowner and want to get involved, the time is now.



If you live in Florida and want to connect with other Florida homeowners who are being heard regarding home ownership rights, learn more about the Rally in Tallahassee, Florida at the Florida State Capitol, up above.
Can we talk? Do you find yourself not saying much about your home ownership situation to your friends and relatives? If you do, you may want to consider increasing your social life to include others who you CAN connect with regarding home ownership issues. Always be careful of the possibly misinformed or a fraud who may want to take advantage of you, perhaps that is done by belonging to a group of like minded, concerned people.
If you don't go out and physically find your own homeowners support group, don't automatically assume your existing friends will be there for you.
- How many of your existing friends might not be able to get past judging you regarding your home ownership situation?
- How many of your friends may be pleased to be doing better than you?
- How many of your friends may no longer want to socialize with you if they found out you were struggling with home ownership issues?
- How many of your friends might be secretly pleased to see you move out of your home because it was "nicer" or bigger than their own, or because they do not have a home?
How did you meet your existing friends? If you met them while socializing, don't just assume they will fight with you or alongside you when the chips are down.
Yes, you may need to choose who your friends really are.
True friends do not want to see each other homeless. How many true friends do you really have?
You will never make a friend on the internet if you never meet them in person, yet you should never expect social gratification or a personal relationship that started from the internet either, predators thrive over those kind of expectations.
Finding people who connect with you and your concerns and whom you can align with to problem solve is one thing the internet can assist you with. But at some point, you should consider physically meeting those with similar concerns if you truly want to make a difference.
Ironically, you should probably bring a friend should you choose to meet people from the internet. Do you have such a friend?

Harris Interactive Poll on Corporate Reputation finds Chase Bank in lowest 13% percentile for Corporate Reputation.





Based on the Harris Interactive Poll for Corporate Reputation, JP Morgan Chase finished near the bottom, position 53 out of a possible low of 60. On a scale of 100 to 1, if 1 was the best score and 100 was the worst score, JP Morgan Chase would have gotten an 87, OUCH!

Jamie Dimon sleazes it up with both the Democrats and the Republicans.
It is easy to connect the dots when it comes to Jamie Dimon and behind the scenes politicking with both parties. Check out what Marcy Kaptur had to say about Jamie Dimon by clicking here, she now seems vindicated as Dimon meets with Ohio Republicans to possibly thwart a consumer protection financial agency.
And lets not forget Dimon Proposed sending thousands of jobs to India in March of 2009.
Now a year later, and Jamie Dimon is meeting behind the scenes with Ohio Republicans, possibly to defeat consumer protection financial reform.

Why can't the Banksters and Barack Obama understand the nobility of a homeowner willing to convert unsecured debt into secured debt?
While 25% of all homeowners are now "upside down" on their home mortgages, that also means that 75% of homeowners are not upside down. Of the remaining 75% homeowners, probably another 25% have some, but not much equity built up in their home.
However, this still leaves 50% of all homeowners who probably still have a significant amount of equity in their home. Homeowners with substantial home equity who are presently out of work are being IGNORED by the Barack Obama administration and the banksters, and it is creating a very uncomfortable situation.
Imagine a homeowner that is in their 50's and who spent 20 plus years paying off their home mortgage that they originally purchased for 100,000 dollars (along with a whole lot of interest payments mixed into their monthly mortgage payments as well), and now their home is worth 360,000.
After the home was paid off a few years ago, the homeowner took out a home equity line of credit, called a HELOC, for 60,000 to help pay for their kids education, make some necessary home improvements, and deal with some unexpected medical bills.
This homeowner still has 300,000 dollars worth of home equity on their 360,000 dollar home. Bad news hits, the homeowner worked in the newspaper industry and their job has disappeared. This person is still 5-10 years away from retirement, but rather than jump into another job right away, they have taken in their elderly parents and will be responsible for transporting both of their parents to all of their medical visits, including hospital visits and staying overnight at the hospital if necessary.
This person wants to take time to figure out what kind of business they can run from home because they don't want to be gone all day with two elderly parents in the house.
Unfortunately, the homeowner did pay a price when they paid off their home, they never really were able to create substantial savings because they instead focused on paying off their home mortgage.
So now we have a homeowner with no mortgage, 300,000 dollars home equity on a 360,000 dollar home, no job at the moment, and they want to take longer to find a job because they want to find something they can do from home so they can monitor their parents.
Being cash poor, job poor, but home equity rich, this person asks their bank for a HELOC increase from 60,000 to 100,000. The bank asks about their income situation and the homeowner honestly answers they are in between jobs and won't have another job for another year.
If the bank agrees to raise the equity line, the homeowner will have an additional 40,000 dollars to spend, plus an additional 260,000 in untapped home equity. THE BANK IS IN NO DANGER OF LOSING ANYTHING ON THIS INCREASE IN THE LINE OF HOME EQUITY. If the homeowner were to eventually default on the entire home equity line of 100,000, the result would be the bank has possession of a home worth 360,000 dollars that only had 100,000 thousand dollars taken out.
Here is what I find strange. What the homeowner is basically requesting of the bank is a conversion of unsecured debt into secured debt (home equity line). For years consumer advocates have been advising against converting unsecured debt into secured debt since secured debt means the bank can sell off your assets to collect on your debt.
However, unsecured debt is more difficult for banks to collect against because what was purchased on credit is generally not considered an asset worth reselling.
The bankster industry has gotten so backwards that rather than embrace a homeowner's willingness to convert their unsecured debt into secured debt that is backed by actual equity in a home, the bank would rather REJECT the request to raise the home equity line.
Keep in mind that the homeowner is going to use an increase in the HELOC to keep paying their monthly bills. A SIGNIFICANT portion of their monthly bills includes sending checks to the banks for monthly credit card payments, checks to insurance companies (closely related to the banking industry), another check towards the monthly payment on the equity line (again back to the bank), a check may go towards a payment on the car (once again financed by a bank somewhere). Even checks made payable to the local water and power company usually help the bottom line of cash starved cities who usually oversee water and power!
Do you see the part here that doesn't make much sense. The homeowner is basically parceling out their SECURED ASSET, built up home equity that may have taken as long as 30 years to build up, so they can be responsible and keep paying their monthly bills.
The homeowner is actually converting their unsecured debt into secured HELOC debt while NOT endangering the banks ability to collect on the overall HELOC debt because the home is still worth much much more than what the HOMEOWNER is borrowing against. The borrowed HELOC is easily recoverable by the bank should the homeowner default at a later date.
If the banks won't work with people who have built up a lot of home equity but have no job at the present time, perhaps the banks stand to gain by simply prematurely suffocating a customer financially by not letting them gain access to the secured wealth they built up through years of making their mortgage payments on time.
The too big to fail banking behemoths that were recently bailed out by the taxpayers are not allowing taxpayers to access their own homeowners sweat equity when it becomes necessary, even when an increase in a home equity loan poses virtually no financial risk to the bank and actually benefits all the vendors the homeowner can keep paying.

John Clinton, On the streets Protesting a Major Bank and their Practices.
The bankster revolt appears to be growing. Meet John Clinton. Click here to read the story at Huffington Post written by John Delaney.
I'm not sure that putting protest stickers on someone else's property is a wise idea, but I can understand the frustration that can lead one to want to do something when they see that government is too afraid to tackle the consumer credit card debt issue head on.
You can visit John Clinton's website by clicking here. I emailed John Clinton about adding links to other credit card and banking protest sites. I'm trying to get everybody to link to each other. If you want to encourage Mr. Clinton to put up links to other credit card and banking protest blogs, I sure would appreciate it.

Washington Post Article "Five Myths about America's Credit Card Debt"...
However, this article, and the media in general are still afraid to connect the destruction of local economies all over the country to "too big to fail" national banks that are taking the interest they charge on consumer credit card debt and either pocketing it as billions in bankster bonuses, or reinvesting the money anywhere but in local U.S. Economies.
The article also does not then show the link between the 15 billion dollars a month being stolen by banks in the form of interest rate charges on EXISTING credit card debt and the increase in home foreclosures.
Sadly, the banks eventually may make out ok since they can take over ownership of foreclosed homes for pennies on the dollar, and either hold on to them or simply resell the foreclosed home to those whomever they like, while still sticking the original homeowner with the entire debt based on the original price of the home and what they gave the home away to in auction.

Regulate Me! Credit card edition | Washington Examiner
It appears that Barack Obama is having as much success at protecting consumers from the banks as OJ had in vowing to find the murderers of his wife.

The Bankster who broke Glass Steagull, Sandy Weill, has a Trophy that reads "Glass Steagull Shatterer".

The former head of Citibank, not to be outdone by the middle aged slobs that go to Africa for canned hunts, apparently has a Glass-Stegall "shattered" trophy specially made.

Controversy arises over Chase Bank Facebook Charitable Organization contest, boycott of Chase Bank is called for by some non profits.
An interesting development has occurred over the Chase Bank Charitable program giveaway. Chase Bank is funneling a tiny fraction of the money they STOLE from their own customers when they raised their monthly minimum payment on life of the loan, low interest rates from 2% to 5% and is giving that stolen money to charitable donations.
A couple of days before the Chase Bank Facebook contest was over, the public tally of the votes was removed from the Chase Bank Contest pages. A few groups that were in the running suddenly fell out of the top 25 and are now protesting Chase Bank.
I actually have empathy for Chase Bank over how they divide the miniscule percentage of the grand total of money they have stolen from their own credit card customers. Sure these Chase Bank customers had their low interest credit card rate, life of the loan agreements changed so that they to come up with 150% more money every month for their monthly minimum payment obligation, but Chase Bank needed a small portion of that stolen money to generate positive publicity for themselves!
Apparently, Chase bank was concerned that some of the charitable organizations were political groups and they did not want to get caught making donations to politically charged 501c groups.
So in this one instance, I do feel a touch of empathy for Chase Bank being blamed for trying to do the least politically explosive thing. Too bad they don't treat their best, never late paying credit card customers the same way.

Chase Bank Pulls the All Time Grinch maneuver, steals from own customers then gives a fraction of the looted goods to non-profit Facebook Groups.
Chase Bank has just played the roll of the Grinch who stole Christmas, but with a deviant twist that would curl the chromosomes of the original Green with Envy, Grinch.
Rather than giving back the stolen presents to the families that the Grinch had originally stolen them from, Chase Grinch hightails it to the next town, a town called Charityville USA, and gives a small fraction of the previous townspeople's stolen loot to the Charityville townspeople.
When Chase Bank accelerated the monthly minimum payment of over a million of their never late paying customers by 150% per month, (all of whom had super low, life of the loan interest rates), Chase Bank basically absconded with millions of dollars in monthly interest rate savings from these customers.

New Blog Announcement, Parallel Foreclosure is now online and will be used to link to other Chase Bank Watchdog Blogs.
Great News, you can now use the Parallel Foreclosure Blog to keep track of several Chase Bank Watchdog Blogs, plus other blogs that carry info about parallel foreclosures.
The Parallel Foreclosure Blog will list easy to find links to several other Watchdog blogs. By simply bookmarking the Parallel Foreclosure Blog, you can maintain easy access to several other home modification banking watchdog blogs, plus chase bank watchdog blogs.
Parallel Foreclosure is a phrase that sounds sophisticated, but has potentially life changing consequences for those who get swept up in its path. Banking institutions can honestly look you in the eye and attempt to help you re modify your home loan even while a different banking division within that same bank is filing all the necessary paperwork to foreclose on your home!
But it is even worse than that. In some states banks can then actually get ARMED law enforcement officers to show up and evict a homeowner based on the word of the bank and with no judicial involvement of any kind!
As of December, 2009, there are 10,000 foreclosures every day in the United States, wow!
