JPMorgan Chase Abruptly Terminates 10 Year-Old Girl’s Bank Account, Refuses To Release $2,100 for More Than a Year: Report

JPMorgan Chase abruptly terminated a 10 year-old girl’s bank account for simply cashing a check, according to a new report.

Ten year-old Kinley Maner raised and sold six chickens for a stellar $2,100 at auction, reports the Phoenix-based news station KTVK.

Kinley received a check from the Small Stock Association and initiated an electronic deposit using Chase’s mobile app.

But instead of giving her the money, the bank shuttered her account the very next day.

Kinley’s dad, J.R., says the family spent hours talking to representatives at the bank and were told the check appeared to be fraudulent.

“Their ultimate response is that, sorry, Kinley is not going to get her money back.

And there’s nothing we can do unless we can verify that check.”

Chase told the family it tried to contact the Small Stock Association and determined that the organization – which is legitimate – is out of service.

After the debacle, a full year later, Kinley still did not have her money back.

At that point, the family contacted KTVK.

Just hours after the news station contacted Chase, J.R. says Chase called Kinley and said they would immediately send her a $2,100 check.

“I think, if we wouldn’t have contacted [the media], it was pretty much a dead end. I don’t think we would have got the money back.”
