I was on hold for almost 2 hours and no one ever answered to help me. Even the live chat doesn't help. They pawn you off on calling customer service. Do not get this card! I urge you. Get a prepaid card from any other company. It was such the simplest task I needed done. Literally just activating a new card. That's all. Imagine if it was something else of bigger concern. Just imagine how effed you would be.

Awful service
June 22, 2022

The customer service lines do not help you in any way shape or form, and just repeat to you the same sentences. I have called and chatted with the wisely customer service lines for over 2 weeks and have received zero help with my card issue!

Do not get this card. Bad customer service
May 30, 2022

I go to an in-network ATM to withdraw money only to be declined twice but I have a positive balance 20x the amount I attempted to withdraw. Anyhow I call customer service to see why my card was declined and discover that I was charged 2 dollars for the attempted withdrawals. The customer service representative informed me that I was charged because I was using an incorrect pin code. But I checked my email I was declined due to card inactivity. With this being said you would probably want to verify your account through customer service if you can wait 2 hours of elevator music

I lost my card and was told that I could pay a fee to have a new card overnighted to my new address (that in itself has been a hassle to change). This was on March 24th and it is now April 8th. The customer service has been abhorrent to work with and they are clearly lying. I've been hung up on three times. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BANK WITH THEM.

Credit Debit Card No Protection
May 19, 2021

Had this card for a while, not used much, Never carried in public, only in my SAFE NOT USED. Decided to use it on my birthday only to find it was locked... Hmmm, $800 worth of TikTok charges the day before that I obviously had nothing to do with since the account was locked. Filed a claim that day and 90 days later the investigation was "NO FRAUD" Ha. Out $800 and they want you to prove you didn't do it. 2 hours on the phone\no reslove but to get a check for the remaining balance. If offered this card... RUN, DO NOT GET IT THEY WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF YOU IF HACKED>
