Customer Service
I have been trying to report fraud in my acct for days now. Green Dot contacted my on Monday 25th of Sept 2023 that someone was using my identity in order to purchase products from Burlington Coat Factory. I told them my card was on me and I was at home. The sent me verification code and the operator said she would handle it and my account was good to go. 2 days later I find out my account was closed I have a zero balance and no one can help me. Customer Service just hung up and now no one is picking up.
Unacceptable! This has got to get resolved or I'm going straight to my social media platform. I need someone to call me [protected]
Desired outcome: Put my funds back into my account.
Money held hostage
I have had green dot bank for around 12 years now. I am retired and have my retirement and pension directly deposited into my account. 3 months ago, my card was compromised with unauthorized charges to my account from the online website, "Shein". I called green dot and they were able to reverse the charges and cancel my card, which was the desired outcome. However, I have had no access to my money ever since, 3 months now. No matter who I talk to, supervisor or not, I get a different answer and false promises. They tell me that my account is on restricted status, and once I receive my card, and I send them a picture of my ID, then it will be available for use. Every single time this happens, I send them my ID to get verified, and they email back stating my card will be mailed in 7-10 business days, even though I had already received a new card. So I waited patiently for this new card, and once it arrived, I went to activate it. I receive the same response, "your card is restricted and needs ID verification." I already verified it, but I went ahead and did it again. Once verified (which takes another 2 business days), then they respond with, "Your new card is on its way, 7-10 business days." I have been going through this for 3 months straight. My power is about to be turned off, as well as my cellphone. Green Dot is the absolute worst, most unprofessional and uncaring company I have ever experienced, and I warn everyone to stay far away from this company, so that you don't end up like me.
Desired outcome: I would like green dot to over-night express me a new card that can be activated without restrictions, and/or cancel the account altogether and send me my money via check or direct deposit into my new bank account.
Since I deposited money on 23 of September I haven't received my payment

On 09/19/2023 at 2:55 p.m. I bought a green dot debit card from Walgreens 9458 Helena Rd. Pelham Alabama 35124 . I put $100.00 on the card. I've tried to register it many times { [protected] valid 01/25 cvv 125, and each time it tells me the 16 digit number is invalid. I want a refund sent to my P.O. Box 1348 Alabaster Alabama 35007.

Look forward to hearing from Green Dot soon,

Greendot card funds / card ordered without my knowledge
On September 12th Greendot allowed someone to call and order a new card which took 5 bucks out my account that's how I realized what had happened, Someone got my DOB/ social security number and called and ordered a new card trying to get my funds this caused my existing card to not work and me not have access to my funds I called to complain and they shut my entire account and a recording tells me I can never have a account or card with green dot I have over 2000 dollars that I cannot get to and it's hard to get in with someone that understands the magnitude to which the stress and anxiety this is causing me trying to explain and get information on my own card and money be in mind I never lost my card not was it stolen I have my only card that I never lost in my person as I wrote this and I'm behind treated like the bad guy I have never in my life had to go through anything concerning my banks or money in my life .I have with green dot ,no security whatsoever that's all someone needs is your social and DOB and they can access your account by calling the customer service number if they jsd needed the exact card number this would not have happened because i never lost it and they wouldn't have known that information only if it would have been lost could they have gotten that part .. But like I said that never happened they don't have a security measures in place like them knowing even if a person is calling from the phone number on the account or a security question or anytype of system,now they have my money and won't release it to me no one has called me written me im just being treated like a thug,,No the thug was the persin who did this to me and Greendot has let them and now All I keep getting is the run around and if I do get someone on the phone I get transferred to some team they say are dedicated to helping yet no help no money no nothing in furious and I'm presently speaking with a lawyer on behalf of my situation it's as if my money has been ripped straight from my pockets ill never trust another deposit of anykind to Greendot ever or use them or recommend them to anyone they should be no more...I need help ! Does anyone understand this!
Unauthorised discontinuation of credit card
I am officially making a complaint about the Green Dot Corporation service.
On or around 28 August 2023, I requested a replacement card from Green Dot Corporation after losing my original one and relocating to a different location.
I provided them with my new address, and they told me the wait time to receive it would take up to ten business days. I received an early retirement supplement from Social Security for $ 398 monthly.
This payment goes to my direct deposit on my Greendot card, and I didn't discontinue the direct deposit because I was under the impression I would receive a card from them.
After the ten days (and letting the direct deposit go onto the card), I contacted Greendot and informed them that I never received a card.
They then told me I didn't receive the card because I needed to provide them with a picture of my identification or driver's license with the past address where I registered the card. I explained to them that I didn't have a current identification address with that address and that if they had informed me of that when I first applied for a new card, then I would have redirected my Social Security funds to somewhere else because I would have known that I did not have the ID what they were requiring.
I then contacted them and asked them if I could send them an alternative solution, and they told me that I could send them a picture of my ID, along with something stating that I was at my current address.
I sent them what they requested three times, and each time (they would send me an email saying that they couldn't read it or that it was not sufficient).
They kept telling me (there was nothing they could do even though they didn't tell me before I let my direct deposit go to my card when I was under the impression I was receiving my replacement card). I told them that I couldn't suffer for their mistake, and they insisted there was nothing I could do about it and that they would close my account in ten days - which meant I could not contact them or anything because I would not be able to provide the legit card number at the beginning of the call.
Their company is very unprofessional and has a customer service that sometimes doesn't speak English correctly. I hope you can help me get my money from them and (to ensure that this never happens to anyone else).
Desired outcome: Ide appreciate if I could receive access to my debit card.
Customer Service
Hi I have a Walmart Money Card
I had a Pending Hold put on my card that got posted to my Account and now it won't fall off as a regular Pending Hold would. I need this Money and it has messed my account up because it got posted and not left as a Pending Hold. Customer Service won't help they want to file a dispute.
The Charge was on Sept 8th 2023, for 150 dollars. I really need it resolved
How do you even know my name and account number
Desired outcome: Please refund
WalMart Money Card
About the middle of August, 2023, I noticed the merchant names were either partial addresses or completely wrong. I also noticed the list of transactions and balances displayed a balance that was $360 less than my own bookkeeping. Customer service is non existent. The live chat has inept staffing at the other end. They opened with "Haven't received any response from you, let us know if you need more time to respond." They said nothing to respond to in the first place. Nameless, faceless corporate entity that doesn't deliver when things are amiss. Currently I'm trying to debate a $57 charge allegedly made at a Shell station. Their (automated) response is to deactivate my card and lock out my account until the new card arrives. I have bills due long before any card would arrive. This might not be so bad if they ever involved an intelligent human.
Desired outcome: Drastic Improvements in customer service are needed. I want the fraudulent charges back without having to be without my money or ways to pay bills. This is completely unacceptable.
I tried to respond through this website. It always crashes when I send the message.
Got a response from someone who did not identify as connected in any way to Green Dot Bank/Walmart Money Card. Any email with "kindly" reeks of scam. Response sent by what appears to be a brand new account. WTF?

Expired card replacement
I have a gift card from Walmart for $250.00. It has expired and getting it reissued is next to impossible. I cannot get a person on the phone to speak with. I have the card and have not lost it.
I started with Sunrise bank, the bank on the back. I went to Walmart, they say it is a visa problem. But finding a bank to take responsibility for the card has proven to be quite difficult.
Please help!

Prepaid visa card
I have direct deposit set up through my employer. On August 20th, the was a deposit of $500 made to my account. Although the funds are there, my transactions keep getting declined. I have spent several hours on the phone with customer service. They tell me how "sorry they are for the inconvenience. We're working on the issue. We are upgrading our system and it seems to have affected your account. We will escalate this issue and your funds will be made available within 48 hours". It is now weeks later and I am still unable to access my funds. My bills are not getting paid, my gas tank is empty and I now owe late fees and I am behind on rent. I want access to my funds. And I want green dot to compensate me for my late fees. This issue has caused me more stress than I can put into words. I am now $1000 in debt due to this issue. An issue that Green Dot is not resolving. It is completely unacceptable to be in this position.
Desired outcome: I expect access to my funds as well as compensation for my late fees and the hardship this has caused me and my family.
Have not received my provisional payment that they said was sent Aug 18,and no way to find out where it is
On August 2nd my green dot account was hacked right after my social security deposit. On Aug 18th I was told that my provisional payment was there for me, but not telling me how to access it, now it's Sept 4th and still no check from green dot and no way to reach them. Customer service said they cannot help me to locate the money because my card is blocked.
Desired outcome: I need my money back so I can pay my rent and bills, please refund my money
Green Dot review: Green dot took $53,000 and closed my bank account without warning! Help!
I received my refund from my taxes after a couple of days it was locked and now they will not unlock it and it's holding $53000 of mine I've called numerous times. I'm getting the run around the amount is actually missing 18000 which we would be a total of $70000 it's been since the beginning of July and I still haven't gotten this settled when I called they say that they can't do nothing that I need to call the irs. I'll talked to the IRS they know nothing about it please help please help this company is stealing money from everybody and anybody
Desired outcome: I just want my money transferred to my other account immediately
Greendot walmart card
I received a message from Greendot that someone had tried to use my account through Instacart. They said they were locking down account and to contact them. The card should be restored within an hour of call and I tried to do a transaction and it declined. I called back and the second person said there was a glitch in system to try next day. I tried another transaction and it was declined. I called and spoke to third person. They said I should have a new card in three business days and I have not received it. They are giving me the run around and are passing the buck. I cannot even buy my medicine or get groceries because my paycheck is locked down on their account.
Desired outcome: I want a way to get a card or money
Have you had any luck with greendot?
Walmart green dot bank/ waiting 3 weeks for a new card
August 9 2023
I had a fraudulent transaction on my account from Microsoft store. I called green dot to dispute the charges. The rep said no problem and deactivated my card. Then supposed sent me out another card. The card never got to me because there was some technical difficulties. The next week they sent me another card, everyday I called the card was shipped and I had to wait for this or that day. The fifth day I call there was another technical difficulty that transpired. So my called was "expedited" and was supposed to come in 3 business days. Still nothing. I have no money at all. I have my money deposited from work in to the money card (green dot bank). A rep just told me today to purchase another card then they would be able to send my money through the account that was just purchased. That was a lie. I have no money to even open up another account with any other bank. I am so stressed and hurt that something like this can happen with Walmart like this. I will be talking to a lawyer to process legal actions. They hangs up on and have me on hold for 1-2 hours at a time. I am so furious about what is happening. I have bills I am behind in and late fees are piling up. These people need to be in jail for the fraud they are commenting. These people are sadly mistaken if they think I'm not gonna get my money back.
Desired outcome: I will like to get my money out of the account and switch my money and deposits to a real bank. I have read multiple complaints that are quite similar to mine. This is so wrong what they are doing.
