AccountNow debit card

Account now sent me a card so I decided I was going to upload my school refund money onto the card. At first they put limits on the amount I could take out up until now I didnt have a problem swiping my card or ordering anything offline. On November 13, 207 I tried ordering something from Fashion nova and it declined. I called my card in and he had money on it so. I called account now to speak with a representative and a lady name Rivfhyla asked me to verify my birthday. Which I did she told me my account has a restriction on it because my date of birth isn't the same on file. When I called a couple of months ago regarding the amount of money spent a day my date of birth wasn't a problem. She told me I have to send them a picture of my ID social security card and prove of my resident. I asked her why isn't my date of birth right because any other time I call and verify it's correct. She said she could not give that information over the phone. She also told me she's sorry but she couldn't help me. So I called account now customer service again the lady told me they would send me my deposit through a check. And that I should receive it in 5 weeks she said I didn't have to send my ID information in anymore. She then puts me on hold and says I can just go ahead and send my information in. When she just said I clearly didn't have to send it. I somehow forgot my login information for the online website I asked is there anyway she could help me login back into my account she stated no. They are a bunch of scammers trying to lowering people in to use their cards so they can take your money. I would like for them to take the restriction off of my card or give me back my remaining balance. I do not want to deal with this company anymore.

AccountNow unethical

I am just now knowing that a card that I did not ask for was sent an because I do not know where the card is because it was never received by me, I am now locked out of my account completely with no way to access my online account nor am I able to contact customer service because they are dumb and have this one man on each of the numbers that I have tried calling. I have spoken with a lawyer to action against account now because the funds are in my account belong to me and not them and with them refusing to help or reach out to their loyal customers is a pure shame and will be taking action against them. This is really against the law and if no one from Account Now is willing to help, I know my lawyer will find a way so that they will do their jobs! As soon as my money is withdrawn I will be no longer a member of this association. It is an outrage to have to talk to people who barely understand a word of English when majority of their customers are Americans!

AccountNow my account

On 11/16 account now decided to dispute a charge on my account and never notified me before they restricted the use of my card and online account. They are holding my social security funds, and refuse to give me access to my money this is what I live on each month, I already have $150 in late fees have mo heat in our trailer or food my phone has been shut off and my storage is overdue. All thanks to their stupidity, do you think if I questioned a charge on my account I wouldn't get ahold of them about it, but what gives them the right to dispute any charge on my account. And have sent them everything they asked for on the 28 th of November still no money, I can't find not one single person willing to help me in this whole company. Said am sending a check that will take 5 weeks to get here if they are sending a check why not just release my funds, this whole ordeal is stupid and illegal. Just tell me who I need to go to to get some help please.

On 11/16 account now disputed a charge on my account for $32, they never called and said we have a question about a charge we need to talk to you about it, I found out when I went to get groceries and my card was declined. Now they have had my money the government gives me to live on each month for almost a month, we have no heat .no groceries.. Phones been shut off..storage is past due..and have $150 in late fees thanks to this company. No one has called me yet..no one helps you they are cold and rude they hang up on you put me on hold on Friday at 3:30 till Saturday at 6:45 . That's how they treat you had my account with them for over 9 years and they treat you like that. Now they want to send a check they say will take 5 weeks to get here I can't go another 5 weeks with no oney if they can send a check just take the hold off and let me get my money, plus they took their service charge out of my account when I have no been able to use my account how does that work. Enough is enough going to call social security tomorrow and let them know they are denying me access to the money the government sends me to live on lets see how well that goes over, plus the federal trade commissioner and the treasury department. I am tired and cold and hungry and fed up with them, my uncle ( a federal court judge) told me I am the only person who can dispute a charge on my account.why because it is my account and my money not theirs what they have done and are doing is totally illegal. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Hi Pamela. Appreciate the response.

So to whom was this $32 charge? And is it your claim that this charge was legitimate?

It sounds as if they have a real concern about the account information getting into the wrong hands. I don't know that the entities you're referring to will have much power to do anything for you, especially within the short term. I may have some suggestions of other contacts though.

Look forward to hearing back from you.

I have no clue because it was 2 months ago, I check my online account on the 25th of every month, and use my card all the time I rarely carry cash. Who takes only $32 from someone's account? And if there was a question they should have picked up the phone called me and talked to me about it, I check my account every month if I had a question about a charge I would have called them myself, I do live on a limited income so would have called them, not just take it on yourself to restrict my card with no notification that is totally wrong and dishonest.

By this time, though, I would think that you'd be ultimately aware of why the account was on hold and, if it did have to do with a single charge, you'd be extremely aware of what that charge was and what it was for.

I've got some suggestions as to whom I'd contact, but without a clear understanding of what is going on with the card, I don't think you'd find it a great deal of help.

If you'll accept a little bit of direction, I'd have you start by contacting AccountNow, but not to argue with them to reactivate the account. Instead you need to get a clear understanding of what is occurring. If there is just one transaction that has shut down the entire account, they should be able to tell you what it was for and to whom it was for. IF IT WAS ON 11/16, IT'S BEEN LESS THAN A MONTH. Hopefully you'll remember it, or it will stand out as an illegitimate charge.

As soon as we get that figured out, we'll hopefully get the rest of the issue resolved.

Look forward to hearing from you.

I can tell you're frustrated BUT ANY BANKING INSTITUTION WILL OFFER YOU A LISTING OF CHARGES TO AN ACCOUNT -- GUARANTEED! YOU SAID IT YOURSELF THAT, "I check my account every month if I had a question about a charge I would have called them myself."

Pamela, you have to do something to help yourself. Don't just complain. Do a little research.

AccountNow fake debit card

I took a survey from a popup advertisement (I have no idea why I would do something that stupid) after which I was sent two empty debit cards. Ever since then I've been receiving phone calls from some strange Indian man (I'm guessing that he's Indian based on his accent) who says he works with"The Government". He never gives his name, and he never answers my questions. He always ignores what I say in order to talk about grants and loans that I never applied for. Now, I'm being called by the IRS for credit fraud. I don't know what to do.

Account now representative shut off my card, after I told her not to. I explained that would leave me in hardship, and that I wanted to pull out my money before she did that, and I explained numerous times, to not do that at all. I need my money and now I can't even eat, get gas or even get a hold of them, because she did it right at closing time. Fantastic. Account now deserves a royal boning!

AccountNow unauthorized withdrawal

#1
I had just put 40$ on my card to pay a cable bill.
I tried making an online payment to them but was told the transaction couldn't be made.
The next day I make a transaction at store and the 27$ is gone.
I assumed the transaction for cable went through.
A day later I get a notice saying I must make a payment on said bill.
They claim they didn't receive anything.
So where did it go?
#2
I attempted to make a donation to a friends site for 20$.
I was given the "pay with card" or use papal.
I chose "pay with card" and filled out the info.
Surprise!
He never received any money and pay-pal took 10$.
?
Tried to get an account balance and try to find out where the 27$ went.
And your site claims my 16 digit card number doesn't match the profile or user name.
