Anyone else?
I just received mine for $500. I thought that was a scam and I called. They told me that was a legit check😂👍

Did you find out if it is indeed legit? I also received a $500 check from Chase with a letter dated Jan 29, 2016 for "their error". I just talked to Chase (not the # included in the letter) and they said I should talk to Fraud because they have no record of the letter or the check. However, they couldn't even pull my account up because my records had been "purged". Don't know what to think at this point. I am holding on to the check until someone here can share their experience after depositing the check.

Any feedback shared would be greatly appreciated!

Got the letter and a check for $500...I used to have a credit card witj them and the last 4 digits referenced on the letter matched. Also the letter stated they were going to delete that acct from my credit report and I received a notification from Credit Karma about it. And this check was mailed to my parents address, where I used to live back on 2013. But I didnt deposited the check in my account, I went to a Chase bank branch to cash it. The teller asked me if I had a bank acct with them and because i didnt there was a $8.00 fee...(really???) Anyways I said Ok! And when she ran the check she said the fee has been waived.
