Jpmorgan Chase Bank
Unclaimed Property

Jpmorgan Chase Bank has turned over $24.3 million in unclaimed property to the State of California across 158,156 separate records. The most common reasons Chase customers lose track of their money include dormant checking or savings accounts after moving without updating addresses, forgotten safety deposit box contents, uncashed cashier's checks, closed credit card accounts with remaining balances, and abandoned investment accounts.

Jpmorgan Chase Bank is one of the largest commercial banks in the United States, offering checking accounts, savings accounts, credit cards, mortgages, auto loans, investment services, and safety deposit boxes to millions of customers. Chase customers typically lose track of money when they move and fail to update their address with the bank, close accounts but don't withdraw small remaining balances, stop using credit cards that later receive refunds or credits, abandon small investment accounts, or forget about contents in safety deposit boxes after many years.

The highest concentrations of unclaimed Chase property in California are found in Los Angeles ($3.2M), San Francisco ($2.1M), and San Diego ($1.8M), which aligns with Chase's significant branch presence in these major metropolitan areas. Given Chase's history of mergers and acquisitions, including the 2008 acquisition of Washington Mutual, some customers may not recognize the Jpmorgan Chase Bank holder name if their original accounts were with predecessor institutions that were later absorbed into the Chase banking system.

The average claim from Jpmorgan Chase Bank is $154.
