Greendot Identity Verification when registering card
I purchased a greendot re-loadable debit card in order to pay my bills online due to Covid -19. I loaded $500 cash when I made my purchase then proceeded to register card to activate. Upon registration I verified my email and phone number. I then received the alert that my identification was unable to be verified and my card was limited to in person purchases only with restriction to use the mobile app. When I called the greendot number I was told there were no options that my card was locked with no ATM access, no online purchases access. This money was specifically for bill pay - which also is not an option now. I need you to manually verify my identity and unlock my card immediately please. I would have never loaded my cash to pay my bills on green dot if I had any idea that I would not have full access. Many offices are closed due to covid mandates and in person payments are not an option. Please assist and resolve this problem please.
Desired outcome: Card ending in 1579 Verify my identity by me emailing you my drivers license or what ever documents you need and unlock my card.
wal-mart credit card
I opened a checking account with credit card.I have $3, 300 in account.card was blocked.can not withdraw my money.have called several number.they just tell me call this number .have called 5 diffirent numbers without any resolutions.I would like my money.open account so i can with draw or send me a refund.i also called wal-mart they also gave me a different number to call.
Desired outcome: send refund
Similar experience just happened to me as well, stating that they were unable to verify when I registered my card it blocked all services except in person transactions.
Charged for a cancelled purchase/order
I purchased grocery items at Walmart.com from my local store on Feb 3, 2021 in the amount of $90.14.
I was notified via text message the following day that my order had been cancelled and the money would be credited back to my account.
As of today, Feb 9th, I am now being charged for an order that was not only cancelled, but for items I never received. I contacted the customer service number on the back of the card and was told that they cannot and will not credit the money back to my account. They are allowing the charge to go through and I could call back in a few days to dispute the charge.
This money had already been credited back to my account the day the order was cancelled and now I'm again being charged for the order.
They have also declined purchases to a merchant I have purchased from several times over the past year, claiming that there was "potential fraud" from the merchant and they would not be allowing charges from said merchant.
I have been paying my internet bill with this card as well and in the past, the payment immediately went through. Since I am now having issues, the payment I made on my internet bill earlier today is still "pending" instead of going straight through.
I shouldn't have to worry whether or not my bills are being paid when there are funds in my account
Desired outcome: Credit the $90.14 back to my account and stop limiting where my purchases are made
Greendot
Greendot took my money. I had to quickly get the greendot sevice so I could receive my decort deposit . My employee used quick books service to make a deposit . The routing number and account number I had was not the same as what my main account was because some how there was 2 acctive accounts one of which I had no idea about . The greendot customer service is a bunch of run around unprofessional liers .. I have all my documents and still got no where . With my funds my account still is blocked and now it's been over 7 mounts . With yet still no access to my funds .
Receiving a green dot debit card
Called customer service 3 times for a new card to be mailed to me. Each time its in the mail; waiting 6 month of complaints to green dot, still no card
Its been very unsuccessful, I cant log into my account since I do not have the debit card to reset my password, it requires the 16 digit number on the card.
Since I don't have the card in the first place, I cant reset password, theirs money in this account that I can not access, the card that i'm inquiring about looks like the image provided
Desired outcome: need new debit card
Green dot card service
I have 2 accounts with Green dot. My direct deposit is sent to one account that I cannot find my debit card for so I order a new one. I even agree to pay extra to have it sent priority. A week goes by and nothing. I have 3 kids and not a dollar to my name. When I contact customer service they tell me that as of yesterday 1/28/2021 they just found out there is going to be a delay for the issuing of the debit cards. No date as of when and they have no possible way to transfer funds from one account to the other. The only option I have is to close my account and have them send me a check. This is outrageous and I need money to feed my children.
Desired outcome: to transfer funds and get my debti card asap.
This EXACT thing happened to me. They keep telling me to wait another day andI paid for expedited shipping for no reason. So if you cancel the account, they will send you a check?

Desired outcome: Return my money and a class action lawsuit put them out of business
Blocked Account
My account has been blocked since Jan 6th since a deposit was made from CO Unemployment. I submitted my drivers license and my document submitted was denied. So I submitted my drivers license again along with a copy of my social security card, 1099 and Unemployment determination.
Green Dot has opened up several cases all different numbers and have given several reasons for blocking my account such as fraud, unusual activity and inactivity.
The balance is over $8600 in my account. I was able to open up a Bank of America account with the same documents green dot is denying. I waited 27 weeks for my PUA benefit and now green dot is holding my funds unfairly and almost criminally.
Desired outcome: My full amount of my account returned and released.
Account locked

lost card with stimulus money on it and no way to contact a live representative, the automated system asks for the last 4 digits of the card!
I had an account with Green dot a number of years ago. The card is long lost. Green dots contact number asks for the last 4 digits of the lost card in order to proceed. I cannot get past that part of the automated system and speak to a live costumer service representative to get a new card or the 1200$ stimulus back. Turbo tax will not help either.
Desired outcome: A call back from a live representative and my 1200$ stimulus!
