<prompt> Human: Im wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Chase Bank refused to reimburse me after a check was stolen from the person I wrote it to. Yes, timely filing of the fraud report and notarized affidavit filed with Chase. They lead me on saying the other bank the thiefs bank was working on their paperwork or hadnt responded every time I went into a Chase branch to ask about it. This dragged on for months and months.TL:DRHere are some links that anyone who is getting screwed over by their bank should know about:Comptroller of the CurrencyConsumer Financial Protection BureauFederal Banking Commission Federal Reserve Uniform Commercial Code, by State - Straight up legal mumbo jumbo, but its here if you need it.Assistant: OP here. My goal, if I can, is to stop this kind of behavior. By the way they handled this problem check, I believe that this delay-until-the-client-tires-out tactic is a business practice of Chase Bank. i.e. they dont reimburse me, laying the blame on the other bank, I complain a bit and eventually will go away. Chase Bank is then never on the hook for what they are legally obligated to cover me. Still trying to look into the law behind this, but it is confusing for a non-lawyer like me. If I can find others in the same situation, the case gets much more interesting for a law firm to take on.Human: So...how much money was the check for?Assistant: 500. Its not about the money. Its the way they handled this case. I was stunned at their arrogance. It took me a while, but I eventually realized that they were lying to me when I went in to check on the claim.  <response>: If you want to make a difference, file claims with the relevant state and federal agencies. But if you really want to, go ahead and contact a lawyer and see how they react.
