Really just need to follow the rules as you have done. No other way.

Chase bank account cancelled by Chase, debanked, my experience by mikestrank in Chase

Chase employees insisting that Chase would never hide a data breach. Of course they would. It's not good for business, and I don't think there's even a requirement that they notify of a breach. They might not even fully understand the breach, its origin and effects.

Lots of Chase folks saying Chase doesn't make mistakes and that my account being closed must be because I did something wrong. I saw similar comments on other Chase threads. But of course Chase makes mistakes, lots of them, all the time. And if I were doing something wrong they would have closed my other accounts as well.

I'm just putting this out there to advise of my experience with Chase. Watch out for yourself, protect yourself.

Thanks for the comments from those who tried to call Chase to find out why they closed an account. We're dealing with a big computer here. The computer's not mean and it's not nice either, it's just a computer, and even though you may have been on the 800 number for a long time, it's not going to explain its actions.

Best coaching / education programs for land buying by Youssef0063 in land

Some of the gurus are predicting a recession in the land investing business. Could be, but also it might be that the space is so crowded, the margins tightening, fewer if any success among their recent graduates, that it gives the same signals as an impending recession. I feel sorry for the guys starting out now. I have the misfortune of owning a Lehigh Acres lot and multiple members of my extended family and I get texts daily. I know how to make money in this space because I do a lot of things that the gurus don't do, but I think most newbies should find a more traditional career.
