<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">(Update, Sunday, March 03, 2013, 12:22 am) If you have received your Chase Bank Monthly Minimum payment Class Action Lawsuit settlement check and wish to leave a comment, <a href="http://thecatwhoatechasebank.blogspot.com/2013/03/chase-bank-monthly-minimum-payment.html" target="_blank">please do so by clicking this link.</a></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rather than Chase Bank showing a modicum of remorse over their hideous actions regarding the monthly minimum payment increase they levied against a million of their most trustworthy, reliable customers, Chase Bank basically threw almost endless legal thumbtacks into the path of the class action lawsuit attorneys, a lawsuit that was supposed to provide financial relief for around ONE MILLION CHASE BANK CUSTOMERS who were put into financial jeopardy back in late 2008 and 2009 by Chase Bank.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Chase Bank basically bait and switched a million of their MOST RESPONSIBLE AND LOYAL CUSTOMERS into monthly minimum payment increases that meant a monthly minimum payment of 200 dollars escalated to 500 dollars, a 400 dollar monthly minimum payment rose to 1,000 dollars.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Chase Bank then hid the best solution from customers who could not afford the sudden increase, <a href="http://thecatwhoatechasebank.blogspot.com/2010/10/chase-bank-balance-liquidation-program.html" target="_blank">which the Cat Who Ate Chase Bank, blog, reported about back on Oct. 07, 2010,</a> I know this from personal experience because it was only through a significant amount of internet research that I found out about <a href="http://thecatwhoatechasebank.blogspot.com/2010/10/chase-bank-balance-liquidation-program.html" target="_blank">the Chase Bank balance liquidation program.</a></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ultimately, Chase Bank also did not allow their customers to opt out of their change in terms!</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">When I called Chase Bank customer service back in 2009 to find an alternative to having my monthly minimum payment suddenly increase by an additional 150%, <b>THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS KNEW NOTHING </b>about their own "Pro Active" balance liquidation program, meaning anyone caught up in the Chase Bank monthly minimum payment increase was given no solution even though the "Pro Active" balance liquidation program would have been an effective compromise.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">The proposed and apparently already agreed upon 100 million dollar agreement works out to around 50 to 100 dollars per customer after legal fees of 25% are subtracted. In my estimation, the agreement should have been for ONE BILLION DOLLARS plus an additional amount equal to all the bonuses the Chase Bank credit card division executives received during the time they put a million of their best customers through financial peril.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Even though I have written over 400 articles about various Chase Bank shenanigans since April of 2009, I was not invited to contribute my ideas on how to get the settlement offer higher. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I did submit a paper of protest about the Chase Bank Change in Terms settlement offer and it is part of the legal record regarding this case. <i>(Edit Update, Nov. 17, 2012, <a href="http://www.daily-protest.blogspot.com/2012/10/chase-bank-monthly-minimum-2-to-5.html" target="_blank">The Chase Bank Monthly Minimum Fairness Hearing took place yesterday, Nov. 16, 2012)</a></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">One thing that upsets me is that I offered my services back in January of 2012 by email, twice, and never heard back. I don't know if my email ever made it to the plaintiffs attorneys however as the email address does not actually state the name of the legal firm or where it was actually going.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">info at chaseminpaymentlawsuit.com appears to be a valid email address, but I never heard back even though I emailed them twice. I had MANY good ideas on how to get Chase Bank to see the light and I have reason to believe that at least some of them were not tried. However, I have come to learn that there is a difference between behaving despicably, and behaving illegally, especially when it comes to how the banks treat their customers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am guessing what happened was Chase Bank was so busy keeping the class action plaintiff lawyers busy with legal challenges, motions to dismiss, and other types of legal shenanigans that the plaintiffs side did an excellent job of meeting those challenges, while possibly missing the opportunity to engage people like me who might have been able to give them outside the box ideas to counter punch Chase Bank hair ball tactics.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">However, it is also possible that my ideas might have been counterproductive in terms of getting a baseline agreement of 100 million dollars.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">It appears that as a general rule class action lawsuits top out well below the real value of the actual damage caused because actual legally defined damage may be different from the actual damage that occurred. Additionally, as the settlement number increases, the risk of losing via a jury trial versus what has already been agreed to has to be considered, and the legal firms spend a lot of upfront money getting the settlement offer higher as they go farther into debt on the case.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I read that Chase Bank keeps a "legal war fund" of around 3 to 4 billion dollars. So if this case should have settled for a billion dollars, Chase bank can instead throw 50 million dollars worth of hairball legal motions that cause the plaintiffs to spend out of their own smaller legal war fund to keep pace.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Eventually, 100 million dollars looks pretty good to both sides as both sets of attorneys will claim victory, even though the consumer in my opinion is the one that has been shortchanged.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Law office of Kenneth Eade has announced a possible precedent setting case by granting a preliminary injunction preventing Chase bank from either collecting or reporting to a credit bureau any HELOC collection or credit reporting.</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Please <a href="http://the United States District Court for the Central District of California granted a preliminary injunction in Case No. CV-116809 DSF">click here to read more</a> about the United States District Court for the Central District of California granting a preliminary injunction in Case No. CV-116809 DSF.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I'm not a lawyer but one thing this case could do is expose the insanity of Chase Bank being able to acquire WAMU for literally a few pennies on the dollar when the amount of equity WAMU had was well beyond what Chase Bank paid.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Furthermore, Chase Bank put a HELOC freeze on many homeowners which caused some people to default on their HELOC's when they may have had several years worth of HELOC funds still available to them.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">In essence, is it possible that Chase Bank buys WAMU for a couple of pennies on the dollar, then suffocates former WAMU HELOC customers into defaulting on their HELOC's, followed by foreclosure on the home! Wow!</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I question the premise that this is a movement that must choose between protest or disruption. I believe that Occupy can be a movement about Protection.</span></div>
<blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Right now 5,000 to 10,000 homeowners are being foreclosed upon each and every day in the United States.</b></span></blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am concerned that the Occupy Movement is more about people under the age of 35 who just don't care enough about people over the age of 35. If Occupy doesn't care enough about the people who are about to fall off the foreclosure cliff at the rate of 5,000 to 10,000 a day, then that may mean Occupy is really more about the protestors themselves than any one issue that is bigger than them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">If Occupy is more about revenge and prosecution of a few wall street criminals while 5,000 to 10,000 americans are foreclosed upon each and every day, then just what 99% is the Occupy movement representing?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">If Occupy could change one thing that would actually have an instant effect and actually help the 99% that Occupy portends to represent, I would suggest changing the banking law that requires a person default before their debt can be restructured.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Change this one banking law and the robbery of main street's wealth can be mitigated. Suddenly Occupy may find that the economy can heal from within and not with higher taxation or more stimulus packages.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Simply allowing anybody who needs their debt restructured to have it restructured without having to default may be the impetus our economy needs to heal from within.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">About a year ago I was told by a reader to ask for the 5 year Chase Bank "Pro-Active" program as one way to combat Chase Banks change in terms on their low interest rate credit card offers. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b></b></span></span><br />
<blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b>Chase Bank basically STOLE anywhere 10 million to 100 million dollars in monthly interest rate savings from its customers. Chase Bank increased the monthly minimum payment on customers low interest rate, life of the loan credit card agreements by 150% above and beyond what their customers were already paying!</b></span></span></blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;">If a customer was making a 400 dollar a month payment to Chase Bank, that payment would suddenly jump to 1,000 dollars a month! If the customer could not make the higher payment, they would default on the low interest rate credit card agreement (example, 2.9%), and the interest rate could increase to as high as 29%! In my opinion this was a criminal act by Chase Bank that to this day has not been rectified. <a href="http://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-kamala-d-harris-announces-suit-against-jpmorgan-chase" target="_blank">(Important update -June 30, 2013), Kamala Harris has filed a state wide class action lawsuit regarding a huge influx of Chase Bank garnishments immediately after they forced tens of thousands of these customers into default! -end this update)</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;"><b>There may literally be tens of thousands of Chase Bank customers who took a huge financial hit because of Chase Bank first changing terms, then not allowing their customers to opt out of the change in terms.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />
<blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Chase Bank went as far as to lobby the new credit card reform act of 2009 so that they WOULD NOT have to notify their customers whose terms had been changed that there was a way out of the mess.</span></span></blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;">Indeed, when I called the number the reader gave me, the five year paydown program was called the Pro Active program. </span><br />
<blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;"><b>However, when I got the Chase Bank welcome letter, I was so upset with Chase Bank (Because the accelerated paydown of this low interest rate credit card would cost me hundreds of dollars extra as I applied extra money to this low interest rate card that could have gone to pay down a higher interest rate credit card faster), that I just sort of glanced at their "welcome letter".</b></span></blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: large;"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Today, I ran across the chase bank welcome letter again and noticed that I was being welcomed to the Chase Bank "Balance Liquidation Program". So even though I was told, and Chase Bank answered to the name Pro-Active, the other name that apparently describes the 5 year pay down program is called the "Balance Liquidation Program".</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">(edit note - Nov. 15, 2012 - 3:20PM, reading this now, the above sounds confusing. My point was that when I originally tried to get help for the Chase Bank 2% to 5% increase in the monthly minimum payment, customer service did not offer either the Pro-Active or the Balance Liquidation program UNTIL I mentioned either one by name. If it is true that customer service was kept in the dark about these programs, this just magnifies the financial damage that Chase Bank did to customers who were looking for a compromise solution.)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I recall banks sending me similar types of 5 year pay down programs, but the interest rate always seemed to be anywhere from 10.99% to 19.99%, or higher. I think two differences with this Chase Bank Balance Liquidation Program is that the regular customer service department may know who to send you to, whereas with the Pro-Active program they may not, the second difference is you may actually qualify for anywhere from zero percent interest to some other single digit interest rate not exceeding 9.99%. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The idea being that whatever interest rate you are presently paying, if you agree to close your account while continuing to pay off your closed account, you will get a low interest rate as an incentive.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">So if you feel you can pay off a credit card debt that currently is at a high interest rate if the interest rate were lower, you may want to consider calling and asking about the <b>balance liquidation program</b>.
