I received in the mail a letter From net spend. So i figured it was nothing for i get stuff every once in a while.

I'm 15 Years old!!!! Who the Heck sends a Debit card to a 15 year old!? What the *** does net spend think they are doing sending teenagers who haven't even gotten out of High School a Debit Card!? That's totally and completely WRONG!!

I don't understand how a Company send Cards to minors and get away with it.

Isn't against the law or something? I know you can't get a credit card till your 18, but what's the difference?!?!

My 13 year old was sent a netspend card today. It is very scary Iโ€™m confused how they got his full name and the address was incorrect

Guest

I have worked since the age of 16 and had a debit card since that time. Its not like they're issuing credit cards for them to screw their credit up.

Good God, Karen. Calm tf down.

Calling people Karen is out of term really. Kid or not.

Some people just donโ€™t have answers , apparently like you do.. donโ€™t just assumeโ€ฆ

My 15 year old received one in the ma today. To those that are saying kids need to learn to spend money wisely and this is a good thing and blah blah blah....I decide how my child learns these lessons and there is no way Iโ€™m going to blindly allow a 3rd party money hungry cooperation do it for her.

No thank you!!! She gets enough of the corporate giants called social media influence her.

My 12 year old just got one in the mail. 12!

This is wrong. How are they getting our kidโ€™s info?

Guest

Just happened to me as well. My 16 yr old received an unsolicited card from Netspend.

VERY POOR BUSINESS PRACTICE.

I called and had them close the account but how do I know they really did it? I'll be leaving bad reviews everywhere (of Netspend) now.

The same thing happened to us.

Guest

All you have to do is call 1-86*-***-**** and go through the prompts. After pressing the initial prompt (I canโ€™t remember the number), youโ€™ll get to one prompt that says something like, โ€œPress 6 if you want to cancel the card and opt out of future mailings.โ€ Press 6, enter the card number, press #, it will then tell you the card has been cancelled and it may take 30 days for it to be processed. Thatโ€™s it, thatโ€™s all...youโ€™re welcome :)

It isnt that simple. The issue with this option is that the cards are already tied to your childs social security number.

They should not have this information in the first place. My 11 yr old recieved one and the phone systems will not allow you to speak to a person unless you activate the card or provide their information. I emailed their customer service, president, and police enforcement addresses to see if I can get to the bottom of the issue.

I want to know how they recieved the PII in the first place. That is the real problem!!

Guest

all y'all who have a problem with this is white huh? damn grow up its not that big of a deal and if you dont like it do something about it instead of moping around and taking it to the internet

People don't like the trash company you work for sending them garbage so you have to make it some type of racial thing. The internet is the best way to spread the word especially about spam mongers like netspend.

So no we will keep posting here and other places until netspend stops their ridiculous practices.

If you don't like it then that's too bad. I don't like your buddies sending people their garbage.

Dont bring the rest of us black Americans down by your hate speech, you choose to live the way you do thats fine. Choose to stand up and not be another statistic, i would never trust this. There are real banks to place your money stay away from this company.
