Chase's main customer service number and what it covers
Chase's general customer service line is 1-800-935-9935. This number handles account questions, fraud reports, card disputes, and general banking inquiries for most Chase customers. The line operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
When you call, you'll reach an automated system that routes you based on your account type and the reason for your call. Have your account number or the card number in question ready — it speeds up routing and reduces the time you spend in the phone tree.
Wait times vary by time of day and day of week. Calling early morning on a weekday typically means shorter holds than calling in the afternoon or on weekends.

Numbers for specific Chase products and services
Chase maintains separate phone lines for different products because each department handles different rules and processes. Chase credit cards use 1-800-432-3117. Chase mortgages route through 1-800-848-9136. Chase auto loans use 1-800-524-6220. Chase business banking customers call 1-800-955-9060.
If you're unsure which line to call, start with the main number (1-800-935-9935) and the automated system will transfer you. It's not faster than calling the specific line directly, but it works if you're not certain which product your question concerns.
For investment and wealth management accounts through Chase, the routing is different — those services often have dedicated advisors, and the main number can direct you to the right team.
What to expect when you call
After you dial, an automated voice system asks why you're calling. Answer as specifically as you can — "fraud" or "dispute" routes faster than "account question." The system may ask for your account number or Social Security number to pull up your information before connecting you to a representative.
Representatives can address most issues on the first call: disputing a charge, reporting a lost card, updating contact information, or explaining a fee. Some issues — like mortgage modifications or complex loan restructuring — may require a callback or a follow-up appointment at a branch.
If you're calling about a payment that's overdue or a collection matter, Chase has a dedicated collections line. The main number can transfer you, or you can ask for the collections department directly.
Alternatives to calling Chase customer service
Chase's mobile app includes a chat feature that connects you to a representative without a phone call. Response times are usually 5 to 15 minutes during business hours. The app also lets you report fraud, dispute transactions, and update account details without speaking to anyone.
The Chase website (chase.com) has a "Contact Us" section that offers email support for non-urgent matters. Email typically gets a response within 24 to 48 hours on business days. For immediate issues — fraud, a lost card, or a payment problem — phone or chat is faster.
Visiting a Chase branch in person works for account questions, card replacement, and document requests. Branch hours vary by location, and some branches have reduced hours on weekends. You can find your nearest branch and its hours on the Chase website.
When to call versus when to use other channels
Call Chase customer service if you need an immediate answer or action: reporting fraud, disputing a charge, replacing a lost card, or discussing a payment issue. Phone representatives can often resolve these on the spot or start the process right away.
Use the mobile app or website chat for account questions, balance inquiries, transaction history, or general information. These channels are faster for routine questions and don't require you to wait on hold.
Visit a branch if you need to sign documents, deposit cash, or discuss complex matters like mortgage refinancing or loan modifications. Some issues require your signature or a face-to-face conversation, and branches can often schedule appointments to avoid long waits.
Use email for non-urgent requests like copies of statements, tax documents, or general inquiries that don't need an immediate response.
What information to have ready before calling
Gather these details before you dial to avoid repeating yourself or being transferred multiple times. Have your account number or the card number in question, your Social Security number or tax ID, and your date of birth ready. If you're calling about a specific transaction, have the date and amount.
If you're calling about fraud or a dispute, have any relevant documents or screenshots. If it's a payment issue, know the payment date and amount. If you're calling about a fee, know which fee and when it was charged.
Having this information upfront means you won't be transferred back to the automated system to provide it again, and the representative can pull up your full account history immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Chase charge for calling customer service?
No. Calling Chase's customer service lines is free. The 1-800 numbers are toll-free, and there are no per-call charges. If you're calling from outside the United States, international rates may apply depending on your phone plan.
What time of day has the shortest wait times?
Early morning on weekdays — typically 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. — usually has shorter holds than afternoons or weekends. Avoid calling during lunch hours or right after the market opens if you're calling about investments.
Can I speak to a specific representative if I call back?
Chase doesn't may provide you'll reach the same representative on a second call, but you can ask the first representative to note your account with a callback request. Some departments will schedule a callback with the same person if the issue requires follow-up.
What if I'm calling about a payment I made that hasn't posted?
Call the customer service line for your account type. Have the payment date, amount, and method (online, phone, mail, or in-person) ready. Representatives can confirm whether the payment is processing and when it should post to your account.
Is there a number for Chase fraud specifically?
Fraud is handled through the main customer service line (1-800-935-9935) — just tell the automated system "fraud" or "dispute" and you'll be routed to the fraud department. Some cards have fraud numbers on the back of the card itself; check there first if you have the card in hand.
