Got this as a gift, it was the only card available in Walmart they say. So this is how low Walmart is going now? Ouch. Seriously. Why me?

First; I just wanted a prepaid card, the *** system rejected my personal info of course, and tells me I CAN use this card for purchase only, and signature transactions. Okay cool. My only problem at this point is I've had to give my SSN for a prepaid card with pathetic service and just 40$ loaded on to it. Well, I only wanted a prepaid card, so why does it matter, so long as it works when I go to use it, like it had said, as a purchase only card. OKAY!

Second; and if you're reading this as someone with ANY experience with NotSpend, you'll be less than surprised to hear it.. IT KEEPS GETTING ******* DECLINED... So much for a purchase_only card. Customer service? They're closed. I'm afraid to push the button to ask the hours, because from what other reviewers indicate just about anything you ask them entails a .50 to 5.99$ fee with it.

This card is sick, disgustingly complicated, a perversion of a prepaid system, and advertised SO falsely as something simple and 'easy'. Just another way some bank somewhere is absorbing millions of our real-world dollars and shoving them into the funny money system as fast as they can, charging you for the pleasure of 'doing business' through a series of transaction bots that only collect fees, never help anyone. Gross. I wish I didn't have to touch online shopping, and cards like this make me regret having an internet connection at all. I hate what we've become sometimes.

Reason of review: Order processing issue.

Location: San Antonio, Texas

Hi,

We regret to hear about the trouble you had with our card. Do keep in mind that on the packaging it does state that this is not a gift card.

The back of the packaging clearly states the fees and what is asked to activate the card to avoid any confusion.

Please email social@netspend.com if there is anything we can to assist you.

Thank you,

NetSpend
