Hey, guys. I'm a second-year international grad student here. Tbh, coming from a totally different culture and language background has made it kinda tough to blend in and build genuine friendships for me. It's not like I'm antisocial or sth but it takes me a little time to break out of my shell.

Anyone else who's been through this? How do you international grads (or really any grads) handle this? Are there any good spots around campus or off-campus where grad students actually chill, grab drinks, play games, or just vibe without it feeling forced?

Hello, I opened my chime account a few months ago. I am not a US citizen but an F1 visa holder and live in Cincinnati, Ohio. Recently, 1 May to be specific, I traveled to my home country Bangladesh and my chime account got put on hold the very same day. It might have triggered some security issues for the location change, Im not really sure. The app wanted a government issued ID to verify my identity which I dont have. I have only my passport as my valid Id. I tried to use data roaming on my sim to contact chime helpline but it's not working properly. I need to get access to my account for some urgent reasons. Please, any help regarding this would be appreciated. Or if anyone have faced the same issue, how can I reach them other than calling as they are not letting me use the app. How come they don't have a service email that I can reach out to.
