Long story short, woke up today to Chime saying that my deposit was rejected and sent back to PayPal due to names not matching. Which they do, I’ve checked both ends and it’s perfectly fine! Contacted chime support, they told me to ask PayPal since it’s technically their fuck up. Contacted PayPal support and they told me to ask Chime because “it went through on PayPal’s side” Does anyone have any advice from here, I need this money for rent and now it’s not in either account and I’m getting nervous.
