NetSpend Deep blue

In April of 2022 I used them for my taxes my card was stolen so I opened a dispute claim. I got the money back but never heard anything more in it. Come 2023 I have a new account and woke up to a text with a problem on my account. I called and was told seven different things. They are charging me the 900 dollars back and took all the money I had in my account which was 193 after I was told they wouldn't be taking it until I got my taxes.

NetSpend Ace Elite/Netspend

I had both a netspend account and Ace elite account. I decided I only needed one account, so I closed the netspend account. Today I received a text that my account was closed and after of being on the phone and being switched around I only got it was excessive use pattern? I have this account for over 15 years I do not understand why this would happen. I could not spend any more time on the call.

Desired outcome: To make sure this does not mark my name with a bad mark for anything else in the future and to be given a detail explaination on why it was closed and to be able to appeal this decision

NetSpend My card will not go through and I recently put $175.00 on the card

Upon trying to get an online subscription It stated,

"Your payment transaction has been declined.

This might have been caused by:

not having sufficient funds on your account or having your card limit overdrawn

your card being expired or deactivated by your bank

your card not having Internet payments allowed

Please make sure you have enough funds available and try again, use a different payment method or contact your bank or card issuer." I have funds on my card because I just put $175.00 on my card.

Upon calling the Netspend customer service no one answered the phone I remained on the phone approximately 30 minutes with no answers. I disconnected to see if someone would answer later and no one answered on my later call, I'm now considering moving to another card company because it stated on line that someone should be there until 8PM. Please assist me with this problem ASAP. Today is Dec. 31, 2022 @1:44 PM. My phone number is [protected]. Thank you.

NetSpend Account locked numerous times

I have been stuck in the Philippines for about 3 years now. I use my NetSpend card to withdraw money from my PayPal. On numerous occasions they have locked my account and I would have to spend $20 to load my phone and call them to unlock it. I have provided proof of identity including, my passport, SS number, front and back of my card too along with other things. This time a rude customer service agent, knowing my situation, asked for proof of address on a home that got foreclosed on because I got stuck here. Now I have a chance to go home to America, and once again I can't use my card.

Desired outcome: Just want my account unlocked so I can get home.

NetSpend Prepaid card

On July 17 2022, I purchased a scooter on eBay for $304 with my NetSpend Mastercard. After waiting three months I requested a refund. Over the course of those three months a had lost the NetSpend Mastercard. Ebay sent my refund to the card that I had lost. The refund was deposited onto card and ebay closed the return. I only have the last four digits of the card that ebay provided, they will not provide any further information and tell me I must contact NetSpend. NetSpend will provide no assistance due to the fact I only have four digits of card number, due to the fact the card has been lost I have no account number to provide or inquire about. I multiple NetSpend accounts, two of which I use regularly and access easily. The other accounts I am denied access to for reasons they won't explain, despite my having valid usernames and passwords. I enter username and password and they tell me there is a problem with account and to call customer service. Upon calling customer service they ask for a card number I don't have because the card is lost. I cannot request a new card because I am denied access to account, despite having valid usernames and passwords. I cannot contact customer service because username and password only access account online. With no account or card number customer will not even tell me if account exists. I have at least two accounts they have locked to online access (despite having valid usernames and passwords) Because I have no card or account number to provide. If online access were possible I could obtain these numbers, instead access is only possible over phone with these numbers due to their security measures. There are accounts in my name I am hopelessly locked out of, I can neither use them nor close them or report a card lost or stolen. It is unethical to have these accounts, my accounts, and deny any access or even information as to what the problems are that they inform me of every time I am denied access online, despite valid usernames and passwords. They have security questions when the accounts are set up, never have they been asked. I have entire purchase history for lost card with dates, as well as last four digits and expiration date. None of this is enough for them to even acknowledge card exists, or if it is connected to the problem accounts I am refused access to, despite having valid usernames and passwords. I am at my wits end, this simply cannot be legal. I'm being treated as if I've stolen my own identity.

Desired outcome: I want to know how many accounts I have open with this company, it is beyond unethical for them to maintain them in some restricted status and refuse any information to the account holder. I also want my $304

NetSpend Netspend hybrid bank account closure process

I have a netspend account since mid 2019 for over 3 years. I had received a netspend hybrid bank account within 1 month of having a prepaid netspend account and had the hybrid netspend bank account for 3 years. I never had any issues with netspend and even though the bank account had fees for various things and there was daily limits of cash withdrawal or depositing cash into the account, I did not mind the fees for the flexibility of depositing funds and withdrawals were more convenient than a traditional bank account. I never had never experienced any issues with netspend until yesterday when I got a random email that had stated I needed to contact netspend customer service. When calling, the first representative did not understand what was happening and could not explain the email and referred me back into the calling queue. The second representative then needed to again verify my information and then after some time of a long hold, had come back and randomly stated that netspend had closed my bank account "stating some sort of accusations of it violation fdic guildlines" and some sort of false accusation of it having suspicious activity. The representative stated I would no longer be able to have a netspend account or have access to my online netspend account. I wanted to do a dispute about the fact that netspend had randomly closed my account and didn't explain what was happening to any of my remaining funds in my account, nor give an accurate reason for randomly closing my account for no reason, especially after me having an established netspend account for 3 years with no issues, nor calls or reference of suspicious activity or anything otherwise. I found all this to be very ridiculous and random and extremely inconvenient since all my bills and monthly subscriptions and everything was linked and tied to my netspend account. I also found the fact that no clear explanation, nor valid reason or proper process was done nor established in terms of netspend randomly closing my account as to prevent this inconvenience and improper reason with no valid proof given by netspend. I would have before given netspend a 5 star review for the 3 years of account service with fees but no major issues in terms of service. But after this experience, I found other customers need to be advised about this process that occurred by netspend so they think twice when considering to get a netspend account due to netspend possible closing their account even after years of them establishing it randomly and with vague unvalid reason and explanation with no proof as to avoid the head ache and inconvenience. It is not worth the head ache to get the netspend prepaid card nor netspend hybrid bank account account card. Beware, netspend might randomly close your account with no notice. I do not recommend getting an account from netspend

Desired outcome: Advising other customers of Netspend process

NetSpend Fraud complaint over $130.00 in fraudulent charges!!!

There is fraud on my account of 130.00 and change and -77.00 and change to put me in the negative, so a total of around $208, so you are going to hell not me for the [censored] fraudulent charges. 60.00 instead of 61.00 at BJs makes sure countrymen are not in hell except for maybe Zane Michael Lumbley. It is therefore 208 not 209 in fraud charges! Please look into all charges and double-check their authenticity. Please investigate ASAP and give me a list of all charges and whether they are from me or not. Send me an email to [protected]@gmail.com as soon as time permits. I am held homeless due to not being able to use my card and I will prosecute for 200 trillion dollars to make you bankrupt and then put y'all countryman in a for-profit prison to pay off the rest of the 200 trillion. Women at Bjs made sure my meal with tip was 60 instead of 61 with the 20 tip instead of 21 due to a slight mathematical error on my part! Get ready for misery in a for-profit prison with uncooked rice, spinach and salt for a meal with loads of H20 and no coffee ever if you ever [censored] with me and do not give me back my money immediately! 1144 characters to put you in hell before this last sentence! Then it was 1208 after that sentence so you are going to hell if you ever [censored] on me again! Now 1300 characters after that sentce, so you have AIDS unless I cure it for ya! Now 1404 characters asfter that sentence, so you are already in hell. AFTER that sentence, 1474, what is GOD for, for putting people in hell! Die after that sentence if you ever [censored] with my SSN in any way again! Now you have HIV because you are totally 0s in my non-big banality heart! It is a common assumption that karma runs the universe in terms of exact retribution, so do nt ever [censored] with ET frogsd in nature or they will treat you with impunity you pugnacious putrid profligates, wastin my time and money recoupig my money from the dole SS! 2000 characters now, now remember I am not Jesus or an ingraciating genius, so watch out! I am the Holy Trinity for only those that deserve the ecstacy which is neither foreordained or preordained redundant! Now 2208 characters, you are going to hell Kenyon West for believing you killed Michelle near the bridge by the beack with a 357 magnum handgun. 2354 characters means Kirsta died of a crystal meth overdose while she was dozing off Matt and Blake hiding in her closet while I molested her pussy you malevolent closeted pussies. Gay closeted queers forever right Blake! 2578 characters you are in hell for a given amount of time then it is oblivion you oblivious idiots! 2690 characters you will never get a 69 in my for-profit prison with a conjugal/connubial visit, just jack-off to youself while looking in the mirror for self-erotic reasons! Sex it up with a reflection with horrible moaning inflections in your voice when you give an O-face. Good job monkey brains when you never jack off looking at achimp or any other 164 or 174 Old World and New World monkeys. There are noany of 174 Godless monkeys in the New World. They do not exist right, just like a human Zeus or Jesus. Who is Zeus now, king of the Gods? Who is now Jesus? Expectations matter like the 1920's movie Great Expectations about the rolling 20's after WW1. Then the Dust Bowl hit Kansas, we are not in Kansas any more Dorothy and Toto, you dodo extict dumd[censored]s with superfluous hits in the octagon. Make it a circle so you can dance around me while work the center saving energy like a centripedal centurion guarding my alliterative women allies while you move with centrifugal "outward force" as I press you backwards against the aluminum fence which is rubberized for protection, so always protect yourself in the octagon. Enough said about physics and physical force in the octagon or the pressure you feel with your hearts in and outside the octagon. Make it the hexagon to hex you all day long in my timbeframe pentagon guarded like 3-eaded Doberman pinscher whern I have all of nature at my house guarded by my spirit always! Milking all animals which make cheese while you just say cheese eating no cheese in the prison I create with authority. !?!?!? 4255 characters you wiseacre characters going to hell spending eternity deterrmining how 255 means hell for you and heaven for women and children! 4455 for 4 fortresses for heavenly women and children and all of nature, so men you will have to yield and suffer the consequences and shall heretofore believe in damnation until I say oblivion if I do not get my dough back soon. Nothing with flor in prison. There are countless natural vegetables and nuts which make flower. You go to hell if I give you caulifower pizza and you utter one word or sentence of nonsense saying I have cauliflower ear due to my supreme Greco-Roman wrasting abilities which is the deadliest martial art known to man and the universe! Peace out not a piece of chip or cracker in prison! Not even piecemeal unless you are licking up salt off the piss and jizz laden floor, good luck with the laden jar full of chemical concoctions called pizz (mixture of piss and jizz) , no pizz(a)! 5270 youare in hell until the restart of the deja vu university Inn, thanks for buying it Mia, ultimate deity and goddess of the University Inn and Universe! ;)!5432 1 more thing Universe, I love Mia more than anyone! 5488 Matt,,it is Mexican Mia I adulterate with jizz very soon. One more character and it would have been heaven, not hell fior Mia and Gratis forever! Cheer up Consuela and Alex, it is just the beginning for you 4 fortress women. I will mention the rest of women like Abby, Ishani, Madison, Felicia and Brittany and Grace soon. Ha, I just mentioned them and I will elucidate on their innumerable exotic qualtities later! The rest of you mus wait and I apologize if I missed 1 or 2 of some of the ultimate goddesses of the universe. There are 10 goddesses mentioed now, a perfect number like the 10-based decimal system! 6109 extreme 69 with 10 beauties. Cheer up Youfit and Atlas Fit and Planet Fitness goddesses as well. Some women had to come 1st for whatever reason, so i treat them with deep reverence and affection! Now all women and children are cured at 136 with this final sentence.

NetSpend Prepaid debit card

My netspend card was lost. After receiving a new card. I went online to activate it. After trying to login to my account it told me there was an issue with my account to call customer service. Which I did two days in a row only to be put on hold and sent to automated system 4 times. I finally received a email telling me my email had been changed on my account. In which also the phone had been changed. None of these changes had I made. Finally after 4 days and several representatives I was told that my accounts were close and I can no longer have an account with nespend due to fraudulent activity and that they would issue a refund check . I was asked to wait on holds so that that they could get verification to issue the refund. I waited on hold for 45 mins just to be sent to automated system again. Now it's been 3 weeks and I have yet to get a refund and have called several times just to keep getting the run around I have $2,791 of my money that netspend will not give me

Desired outcome: Please give me my refund.

NetSpend Ebay Refund

I purchased something from ebay back on 29th-30th on October. I canceled the item due to misleading information and ebay issued the refund on October 31st for $28.44. Netspend keeps saying I received the refund but I did not as I have statements to prove there was no refund in the amount of $28.44. Netspend is trying to steal from me and I need something done about this. I sent screenshot of my statement to show there was no refund on the 31st.

Desired outcome: I would like my $28.44. Thanks
