Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Customer service

Recently received a text about a fraudulent charge on my card. They blocked the card and then told me to order another one which I did. Paid the $25 fee to have it shipped in 1-2 business days. It's been 4 days and still nothing. They are saying now I cannot receive a reimbursement because it's already shipped. Customer service is terrible and I've been here for over 10 years. Closing my account and never looking back. Find another prepaid card before getting this one.

Desired outcome: Reimburse my account

Just had the same thing happen to me. Canceled my card due to fraudulent use, ordered the new one and agreed to pay $25 to have it shipped next business day (should receive in 1-2 days). 5 days later, no card and I get a notification this morning 'Your card has shipped'. Called customer service and they said due to high demand there is a backlog. And I was lucky to have mine shipped in 4 days. I asked why did I pay $25? That $25 is for cost of sending the card priority USPS, UPS/FEDEX Next day, etc. Not to make them hurry up. Asked to speak to supervisor or anyone in charge, was denied. Been using this bank for years, but as of today, no longer. Closing my account and having my direct deposit sent elsewhere. Unbelievable.

Had the same thing happen twice. Each about a month apart. First time I did regular shipping as I wasn't in a hurry to get a new card. Instead of the 7-10 days they claim to ship by I waited almost 1 month for the card. Only to have it locked out a second time. Paid for the 3 day shipping fee and I'm still waiting for the card. The only positive thing they did refund the $20 fee.

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Cancelled account

Woke up to an email saying changes were made, called and the rep told me my account had been closed and a check would be mailed to me. They couldn’t tell me why or give me the address where they were mailing the check to. Even after I had confirmed my identity. I have had and used this account for years and this is [censored]. Your Rep kept calling me MR Robert even tho Robert is my first name. I pay the 10 dollars a month for the checking account and all your [censored] fees so I’m really kinda glad this happened. You guys don’t deserve my money.

Desired outcome: For you to treat your customers better and [censored] off.

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank My dispute not being handled correctly

I filed a dispute for 13 unauthorized transactions, totaling $3,153.94. I was issued a percentage of a provisional credit for one transaction that they found error in. But the other transactions which were made in the same building on the same date they didn't find error in. This makes absolutely no sense! The transactions were mainly made at casinos in La.. This company has not done anything to help me get my money back. I have told them that I do not go to casinos and it's like they're trying make be the one to have made the transactions. They took their time with the supposed investigation and on the date my credit was to be issued they up and close the dispute. One representative told me, "I didn't change my pin prior to the unauthorized transactions". Why would I need to change it prior to my dispute when my card was in my possession? My pin was changed after my dispute was filed and I received two new debit cards from this company.

All that I want is get my funds returned to me! I do not have this type of money to just allow someone to steal and receive no help from the company I trusted my money to.

Desired outcome: That my $3,153.94 returned to me

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Ace Flare account

I recently contacted the customer service department to advised of overdraft fees that were still charged to my account regardless of me following the policy to keep balance under $10 and purchase cushion is applied. The rep advised that regardless of that I still will be charged a fee and that the $10 only apply to one transaction which my transactions together equal to $8.83. So, I was charged a total of $40.00 for those small balance transactions. The supervisor stated her name was Chrisey I believe don't think she gave me the correct name and literally hung up on me when I recited her policy and let her know she was wrong. I am still being charged those fees and they should have been waivered. I have not received help for anyone, and this has happened numerous times until I eventually I get someone to assist and resolve. I am reaching out to get this resolved because I shouldn't have to call numerous times to get it resolved.

Desired outcome: The overdraft fees need to be reversed off my account.

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank My account

Ok so u have received my disability benefits in this account for 2 years now, and out of the blue yesterday they closed my account they said due to suspicious activity. When I try to speak with a customer service representative they keep telling me that they can’t find my account. I give them my card number they say that my card number in my social cannot. They cannot pull up an account in with either one of those numbers they can’t tell me anything about my account it’s like my account just vanished but all they can tell me is that I can’t have a netspend account any longer.. But I keep trying to call back and when I keep speaking to the representatives, they keep putting me back to the automated line and then it gets me nowhere they’re running me in circles because they don’t know what’s going on with my account it’s like my account just vanished and thin air the information I give them they told me that it’s incorrect when i’ve had the same information for the past two years with them i’ve only had one card one account and they’re telling me that that’s not correct.

Desired outcome: My desired outcome is for these people to find my account. Tell me what’s going on with it I need answers.

11/1/22- same thing has happened to me this morning. Closed my account for their reasoning of “unacceptable usage” which I have no made any huge purchases other than groceries, and small miscellaneous things like coffee. Dealing with this all at work this morning, and no warning that this was being closed. How is this even legal?! How can you close an account without proper notification and proper reasoning. I was given 2 options, POSSIBLE money gram, needs approval they said, I have to wait 1-2 business days to find out if it was approved if not than a check will be mailed to me within 10 business days. I told them this inappropriate to do and to close peoples account with their hard earned money. You need to do better with giving people their money back asap. We all have families, bills, etc to pay for. They say it is my responsibity to call to make sure on the status of pay back. My responsibility?! YOU closed my account, my account that I have had with you for almost 10 years, this should be your responsibility to give back our money!

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank The blocked card policy and customer service

My card was blocked and cancelled due to a fraud alert. This has never happened to me in the 13 or so years that I've had this card. If there is a fraud alert, normally Ace will contact me and verify details, then they would unblock the card. NEVER has a card ever been blocked then cancelled WITHOUT my permission! This is ridiculous. Then to fix everything I had to speak with 6 different representatives and a manager TWICE! This was extremely upsetting and frustrating to deal with all while at work. I don't know how this can be handled or fixed but I've lost faith in this company without a doubt. I have bills to pay like ant normal person, putting my account on hold while waiting for a new card is extremely unacceptable. The service and the way things were handled is absolutely unacceptable. I need a reply as to what will be done regarding this situation and horrible experience.

I myself understand the frustration. I've never had this problem being with them for 5 years. I've had my card blocked 3 times in less than 3 months due to fraud. And every card I replaced i was charged $3.95. And every new card I replaced the same fraud transaction from marine Corp was going through. I've called and complained to Ace about it and nothing was done just another blocked card and having to wait for a new one to come in the mail. Not being able to pay my bills till then. And not one refund did I get back from these transactions that I didn't do.

I was informed of the negative balance $57and cents. I agree to pay the negative balance. I was then asked would I be willing to pay then the negative balance on card 0207. I was asked to close the account after negative balance is paid. I agreed. I was asked to wait 24hrs. to lift block. still no justice! I called again informed of the situation same process this time asked to wait until Sat. 09/24/2022. Still no Justice! Saturday I reached out to your team again, same process asked to wait until Tues. 9/27/2022 after 12pm. Still no justice!

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Fraud Alert

This is the second time this year I have had my card locked for a fraud alert that I received from Ace Flare. The problem is not with the system alerting you but you have to have your card locked with no money. , and now having to wait for your card. Now my 15.00 dollar fraud turned into to 25 dollar expedited card.

The second card was personalized to keep people from stealing and using it as me. Thank you and sorry if I seem frustrated. I know online fraud is a huge issue for most companies and completely understand.

Desired outcome: Unsure yet maybe putting something in place where a person doesn’t have to have a new card but cancelled the transaction. I don’t know really

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Unauthorized charges and overdraft fees because of them

8/22/22 - 2:10pm to 8:20pm. Chrgs from worldwar3.com Amsterdam NL were charged to my acct which caused the acct to go into overdraft. Aceflare/meta bank/ netspend [protected] refused to remove the overdraft fees until Sept 7th after the investigation per. The customer service reps hung up on me and transferred me into a dead end cue because they didn’t want me to talk with a manager. There names are Trina, Dason, Rose and Cassandra. Mika is the only one that did her job and got me to supervisor Jose (P354). Jose could’ve helped and said he understood but wouldn’t help. He put me on hold for a manager and waited until closing time and said the mgr was too busy to talk to me and vacated the call. I explained that I had a direct deposit coming into that acct in two days and the negative balance that would’ve been positive with out the overdraft fees and 5 unauthorized charges will take much of my paycheck and that I had bills that needed to be paid. They could careless. The sad thing is that I have had this account for many years and have only had one other dispute which was valid.

Desired outcome: Bank fees reversed immediately and money stolen to be returned to my account.

Ace Flare Account by Meta Bank Deposit not posted

I have been an AceFlare customer for well over ten years and up until this weekend would highly recommend banking services to friends. This is no more.

A little back story. In February 2020 a trust fund was established for me with the amount of $1560 to be deposited monthly into my account. Up to June, 2022, on the 23rd (or sometimes the 22nd, dependent on when the 25th of the month fell, I would get a notification that deposit was pending and to call the bank. Did so regularly and deposit was posted within 30 minutes. On July 22nd, received message and called to talk to customer service. Did so and informed that deposit would occur the 25th as Schwab Brokerage designated. Asked why the change in policy and never received a reasonable explanation except that Schwab is a high-risk company (which they don't appreciate). Called and spoke with several CSR's on At 5:17pm CSA Rica Mea wrote to secure inbox that deposit would be posted with July 25.

Overall, I received 26 Pending ACH and alerts about this deposit. Spoke with 9 different bank representatives (#8 told me to have Schwab call to release funds) and yet, here it is the 26th of July and funds not posted,

I do not understand why the company has changed policy without notice and why bank representative didn't post funds. I have bills to pay and need money. In addition, I was assessed a $20 fee on the 24th for overdraw on account though bank holding money hostage.

Needless to say, this is more than upsetting. I am making arrangements for moving my banking to another source after all these years, I can no longer recommend Ace as a reliable system. I feel with the 26 alerts, some coming within minutes of each other, to be harassing, espcially since I had contacted bank. I will file complaint with federal government about this situation

Desired outcome: Post the deposit. Follow rules company has determined,

these are fisching charges, some businesses when someone opens an account with your card info the company charges fees usually only $1 to see if your account has money in it and is active.I have been having this problem ,even after getting a new card,In the last 3 months I have had to get 3 new cards,but as soon as i get the card this time i am going to close the account and have them give me a new one with different routing,I never got back 2 of my 3 unauthorized charges,thye make it sound like you are the criminal not the hacker,Also ACE has a virtual card available,where you can take out money or buy something using that card,so you do not have to give any of your information

Wow I am shocked after reading these complaints. I’m shocked to see that the hacking issues and them keeping your money is such a big thing. Someone hacked my account for months doing amazon transactions for over 2 thousand. I have summer classes to pay for so I was depending on that money. After filing a dispute, they made me wait for 12 days just to say that they haven’t found any errors! It was so obvious. Ima college student, why would I be making Amazon orders 7 times in one day?! Now I don’t know how to get my hard earned money back without involving the cops. This bank needs to be shutdown ASAP!
