I like my RushCard. I feel they should a 20.00 dollars over limit, cause sometimes people fall short from pay day to pay day. In 24 hours if their account is still in the negative, charge a 15 dollars overlimit charge.

I signed up for a RUSH Card account several weeks ago, got my card, activated it and loaded it and received $30.00. I have referred RushCard to a friend... She received her card... (She forgot to call right away for the refer a friend code, but she did do it...) Activated it and loaded it... She did NOT get 30.00 and neither did I. She has called customer service many times about this and they say it is too late because she did not call first to ask for code and some other stuff... I feel this is wrong. In the back office, it says refer people with my link, have them fill out application... Once they receive the card, they should call and activate, load it, then they will receive 30.00 and so will I. Both of us are SO disappointed about this. I am Cynthia ** and the person I referred is Cindy **. Please see if you can fix this!!!! Thank you.

It wouldn't be so bad if when you call customer service you get a live person who can actually assist you with what's wrong. I called several times about my account log in information. Well one of the reps gives me my security questions and the answers. I called another time and this time the rep couldn't answer any of my questions because either she couldn't understand me clearly or she just didn't know the answer. She puts me on hold only to come back and tell me she doesn't have a manager that can speak with me. Ok! Ok! I have had enough.

Well, Rushcard promises you'll get your pay 2 days earlier. I get paid Fridays, deposit should be in on Wed at a reasonable TIME. My pay is deposited @ 9:30a, 12:30p, 5:30p and here lately @11:30p EST on Wed. When I call they say they have "no pending credits/deposits" but w/in 10 minutes of hanging up, my account mysteriously gets my paycheck deposited. Please be consistent when it comes to handling my "livelihood". This isn't fair at all when I'm expecting my pay to be there at a certain time of day and its not! I've talked to HR at my job and it's deposited the same time every week but Rushcard decides to HOLD it for no reason! May have to change my direct deposit to another company. It's getting ridiculous.

I'm able to go online, look at all my transactions and set up a bill payment with RushCard. It helps that I receive my check a couple days earlier than most other deposits. It's convenient. I use their direct deposit and when I need to, I can just go to the store and deposit because I do have a couple other RushCards. It's a very easy process. I tell the store I want to make a deposit, they ask how much, they swipe my card and put the deposit on. Within a few minutes, I get an alert that it's on there. Only thing is when they ask our annual fees, the fees are a little bit higher. Other than that, I love my experience with RushCard.

RushCard has a very low fee compared to other advertised cards of any kind and there's an easy transfer fee from card to card. I have introduced three or four of my family members to it because whenever my daughters may need money, I just transfer real quick. They can get it in seconds or in minutes at least. RushCard has helped me save money and spend responsibly. I use it mostly for regular purchases and for paying monthly bills. Also, I've always had good experiences with their customer service team. Overall, they're convenient and I've had excellent service.

Filed a dispute on 4/10/17. The representative stated that I will receive a dispute form in the mail. I did not receive it so I called back and I spoke to a representative.

They also stated that the dispute team would consider that I didn't receive the email I've been waiting 2 months and still no response from the dispute team. The merchant that took the money off my card sent me a letter stating that RushCard took the money back. Still RushCard say the investigation is still ongoing but now where is my hundred $31.27.

My name is Tyllisa ** and my mother's name is Moleaser **. I had paid my mother's Sprint bill twice and neither time did I authorize for my debit card to remain on file. I noticed on May 26th that 477.51 were withdrawn from my account. Immediately I called my bank which at the time was RushCard. I submitted a dispute and they stated that a provisional credit will be placed in my account by June 9th. I even called Sprint and they stated they would refund the money when I spoke with a manager. On June 9th there weren’t any funds, I spoke with a manager at my bank and she stated that it will be there on June 12th and still it was no funds. I called once again and was told it will be there in 24 hours.
Now I felt like I was being given the run around. I called again on June 13th and was told that the dispute team saw no error. I explained how it could be no error if Sprint took out money from my account fraudulently and you guys won’t give it back then she laughed and hung up. Never in my life have I felt so irate. I finally called again later that day and spoke to another manager and was told to file a police report.

So my complaint would be the holding of funds from RushCard and the steps have to be taken to get your money from holding that's holding with RushCard and its bank not the merchant. At this time I have $400 that is actually holding with RushCard and they're putting me through so much flux on them releasing my funds. The merchant itself check for me and they even said that there are no transactions because I cancelled the transactions because RushCard is not one they could use for an auto pay.
Now I'm pretty sure that RushCard knows that there is no funds being pulled from an account that's been actually holding for almost 2 weeks so now I am out of the $400 fund that I'm waiting to be released because Rush is saying I have to have this merchant fax this information however there is no information. This is very tiring because this is the second time this has happened. I like Rush in the beginning but these rules and regulations on releasing holds that their bank put on and know that there is no transaction is ridiculous so at this point because it's taking too much out of me it's time for me to file a suit against their banking system period. I'm not saying not use RushCard however don't ever have any mistakes made because you have to jump through hoops for them to release your funds that's there on your card.

They take care of everything and I've always had good rapport with whoever I talked to.

My child was young back then and I wanted a pre-paid debit card instead of an actual bank account for security purposes. With RushCard, I don't have to carry cash and it's secure. If I make a purchase and the funds are not there or if someone else gains access to my card or my information and they try to use my card, they can't swipe it until all of the money is out of my account because there's no overdraft fees. Also, they've sent me updated text information on my account's balance, and I get my payroll a few days earlier. My paycheck goes direct deposit and then if I need to add more during any given time in between pay periods then I use the reload locations. They give the option for the money management which appears to be user-friendly and accessible. Their customer service is always good and their team is very friendly. I'm a big customer service person so I will not have a RushCard if the customer service wasn't that good.

I love RushCard and I've been with them for 12 years since I've been working at my job. I like that there's no overdraft fee when I take the money and I don't have to worry about going over anything because whatever I put in the bank is just my money. So, that helped me save a little bit. A lot of other people let you swipe and get overdraft fees. With RushCard, I get to pay my bills on time because it goes right out of my account and I was grateful for my payroll getting on there. I also like that I get cash back. If I go to a restaurant and they charge an extra $5 and even though they're not really charging it, Rushcard gives it back to me.
I pay everything with Rushcard and everything comes out of it as well and I didn't have a problem with it. Also, it's easy to find reload locations and there is one right up the street. I have the app on my phone, which helps me out because it tells me if anything happens to my card like who swiped it and the purchases on my card. I get a text message. another reason why I love Rushcard.
I only had one dispute and it wasn't RushCard's fault. The merchant charged me twice and I was overwhelmed and I was crying because I wanted my money. RushCard made sure that I got back everything that I was supposed to, which I was so overwhelmed with because some people really don't care because it's not their money. The guy that helped me made sure I was okay and that I called the people. He stayed on the line with me and did an awesome job.
Overall, the people at RushCard are awesome. They always make sure that I'm okay and that I understand what they said to me and they help me out when I need it. They're also more than welcome to help me with any questions that need to be answered and if they couldn’t help me, they find the next person that can help me. They took their time. You could tell if something is not real and they’re always very concerned and I appreciate that. I've been with them for a long time and they showed me that they appreciate me too.

I lost my card. I notified RushCard ("RC"). I was told to verify my identity by sending them a copy of my ID and Social Security Card ("SSC"), to which I complied by uploading copies of the documents. I informed RC that I moved to California, and that I wanted my replacement card to be sent to California. RC then instructed me to provide proof of address (phone bill, electric bill, EBT correspondence), and I informed RC that I am a guest of someone. RC then required me to provide a letter from the person I live with, along with a copy of his ID. I uploaded a handwritten letter from him, and his ID. It was rejected.
I then informed RC that my friend who let me live here, is not the person in whose name the bills are. All the bills are in my friend's mother's name, and she is presently bedridden, literally near death. My friend, her son, is legally authorized to access her accounts to pay bills. But no bills are in his name, and he isn't on food stamps. RC accepted my proof of identity, but not proof of address. So, I closed my account, and told RC to send me my money. I gotta wait 7 to 10 business days!!! My main issue is identity. If my identity has been verified, the card should have been sent where ever I asked. I regret ever messing with RC. I will not recommend them to anybody. The funny part is, they are sending my check to the same address that they disapproved. Figure that one out.

RushCard has various ATMs where I can go to for free. At first, they didn’t, though, but then they had more ATMs so that was cool. I also liked that I got paid on Wednesdays. It was convenient to get my check loaded, have them on Wednesdays, and be able to pay bills. Also, RushCard has many more locations you can withdraw from. When you reload, you can go to Walmart, Walgreens, stuff like that. I always got direct deposit, though, but if I did reload, then I went to Walmart where it's cheaper to reload. RushCard doesn't charge a big monthly fee as well. If you have direct deposit, it was less than a regular one. I had got another card and gave it to my daughter. I was able to transfer money from my card to her card and that was convenient 'cause she doesn't live with me.
I've been with RushCard for a long time but they changed so badly over the years. I had to call them a lot when the crash happened and the card was messed up. I would always put my money in my savings part of my card so it wasn’t touched just in case a bill tries to take the card and I don’t want it to at that time. But when the crash happened, it went downhill from there. Every time I called, I always got a foreigner. I never got an American person that understood me very well.
Recently, I put some money in the savings part of my card and a bill ran through my card. I tried to call them and explained to them that the money in my savings was never taken out and put onto my card to pay a bill. If a bill ran and there wasn’t money on my card, that was it and I'll pay it later. They didn’t understand me and it really pissed me off. I said, “I'm really done with Rush.” I would have to wait forever now to transfer my money from savings to my card. It didn’t use to be like that.

I had RushCard and they pissed me off. Then I went to Green Dot but I didn’t really care for them, so then I just went back to RushCard. They didn’t have too many prepaid cards to pick from during that time. So, I just never switched to nothing else. Now, they got so many. I've been able to use the card to pay bills or make online purchases and it's an easy process.
However, I've had problems with the card. Someone had taken money from my account a couple of times and I had to wait a long time to get it back. I frequently do direct deposit. A long time ago, I could get a Green Dot card and the MoneyPak then add it on the card which I like better. Also, when I used to do it with the MoneyPak card with Green Dot, they don’t take that long for the money to reload money on the card. But with Rushcard, I have to go to these check cashing places or to Walmart. Their lines would be so long just for me to add money on my card. Sometimes it takes up to an hour for it to even show. I don’t load money on the card like I used to because I don’t like waiting in lines that long just to do that.
I also feel like the customer service sucks. Half of them don’t know what they’re doing. I always tell them they need to go back and train. And I used to always get the text alert message but I ain’t got the text alert message for two years now. I don’t know why they took it off. Then they keep on saying, "It’s on there", but it’s not.

I have had RushCard for about 8 years, just like any other prepaid card they are convenient by posting my deposit 2 days earlier, but the headache that comes along with it can be much worse. They had trouble last year with processing everyone's direct deposit even on time and they waived their fees for a few months to appease everyone. Now lately they must have had a breach on certain people's cards because they started blocking a few people's card that I know and now mine. What makes it so bad is that they didn't even verify my transactions with me before blocking my card. They blocked my card while I was traveling for memorial weekend and told me that I would have to wait 5-7 business days for a new card or if I wanted I could pay $30.00 for a new card to be expedited, but not to my present location to my home address.
I understand the security of my account and all that's fine, but you give me text updates and email notifications and I check my account on a regular basis and nothing was fraud on my account you could verify with me before doing that? I just don't understand how you charge someone for a new card and you couldn't verify fraud first. I personally believe this is a issue with RushCard security that they are taking out on their customers because they can not have any more bad service issues.

On 5/2/17 there was a charge to my account of $100.00. In reviewing my account online I noticed it was a charge for T-Mobile with a transaction number and phone number. Contacted T-Mobile and they stated they could not assist me. I then contacted RushCard, after initials questions by a customer service representative I was placed on hold for 45 minutes. Once someone came on the line to assist, and after information was provided I was told that my card would be cancelled. In no point (now at almost 2 hours of on hold and speaking to representatives) was I told my card would be cancelled.
I told the representative on 4 separate occasions to not cancel my card. I had payments that were due on Friday (5/5/17). I asked for a supervisor, was told a supervisor was not available but he could transfer me to another department supervisor but that upon transferring the cancelling of the card would happen. I again stated, "DO NOT CANCEL MY CARD." Upon transfer and speaking to someone I asked to confirm that my card was not cancelled and was told it just had been. I explained the entire situation again and was told this was unacceptable because I have bills to pay. I was told my alternative would be “express cash” but that it would be a $30.00 fee. I of course refused and said, "Why should I pay for your mistake?"
After another LONG hold, the representative stated the mistake was made by the previous representative and the fee would be waived. That within 6 “working hours” I should call back and request the code to allow me the ability to pick up the balance of funds via western union/moneygram. I was told it would be no later than 2pm on Thursday 5/4/17. I called at 2:09 on Thursday and was told the code was not available and to call back in an hours. I expressed my dissatisfaction and hung up. I called back at 4pm and was told the code was not available, they would resubmit the request to their corporate office and that I would receive a text message with the code.
On 5/5/17 I called at 8:41 am and was told there was still no code and to try by in an hour. At 10:41am I called back again and was told there was still no code available. I again expressed my dissatisfaction and relayed my stress level related to my bills that are due TODAY. I requested to speak to a supervisor, I was put in contact with Kim ** who advised me that the request for express cash was denied, because of the $30.00 fee not paid. I advised her to refer back to notes and was told by other representative that because of error from first representative the fee would be waived and that at no point in my phones calls of the last 2 days had I been told it was pending “approval” that I kept being told I was being submitted.
She said there was nothing she could do, I suggested that perhaps their commercials that play while on EXTENDED periods of hold that it would be an excellent idea to advise consumers that upon filing a dispute the card would be immediately cancelled. This is IMPORTANT information to relay being that there is no physical branch we can go into to obtain cash. I went on to ask Kim ** to let me know when the $100.00 will be credited to my account (the T-Mobile charge which initiated my phone call from the onset) and she said as long as my dispute is done it will be credited by May 13, 2017.
She asked if I had done it, I said I had not received an email but she suggested I do via their online access which I am doing upon completion of this complaint. Kim ** also asked if I wanted her to submit another request for the express cash and that again it is $30.00. I said I would absolutely not pay the $30.00 and that there better not be a charge to my account for this amount. At this point I have no choice but to wait for the card which is 7-10 days.

They still did but was told I could get "rush cash" in 6 business hours (the following day) and after some heated conversation was told the $30.00 fee WOULD BE WAIVED. 3 days later, no cash, was told it was denied because I didn't pay the $30.00!!! I was told this after 3 days of calling for the "code" for the rush cash. Then I have to wait for new card (NO ALTERNATIVE). In the meantime, bills due, late charges being assessed.
During first conversation was told my account would be credited on the 12th (initial complaint made on the 3rd). I called on the 13th and was told had to fill out form, sent email and returned form via fax. Today is the 26th, STILL NOTHING so I called. First of all I am told that the credit was denied because I didn't return forms. What? I did AND sent email to agent@rushcard.com. I explained the frustration in each time I call there is a different story and that I wouldn't care if it took 45 days, just tell me from the get go. DO NOT tell me "It will be in your account on the 12th" and it isn't there. Now, I asked and please do not think I am racist. I am not, the daughter of immigrants and my children are 1/2 ** so nobody call the race card. BUT I did ask her, "Where are you locate" because I do notice (I did not tell her) that everyone I speak to sounds Asian. She said, "We are in the Philippines."
Well why would she care what is happening here? Of course not. It will not affect them there?! SHAME ON SIMMONS FOR OUTSOURCING!!!! She then very apologetically gave me explanation of the entire process of a credit to the account. I then explained to her that information was wonderful but should have been given to me by the very first representative I spoke to! Still no credit, beyond frustrated. Will be closing my account and letting everybody know that will listen what a horrible experience I have had! FRUSTRATED in Cali.

In going with RushCard, I liked the flexibility of having money on a card without having it attached to a checking account and being able to avoid overdraft fees, because if you don't have the money, the card simply won't work and you won't get stuck with overdraft fees. For instance, you won't pay $40 overdraft fee for a latte because you forgot that you barely have enough money to cover that latte.
However, sometimes certain places that want to put a large, temporary deposit hold don't accept the card. As a matter of fact, recently I was in a car accident and I went to rent a car with Hertz. Hertz was paying for it, but they asked me to put down a card. I gave them my RushCard and they said that the card was declined. It had a couple of bucks on it, but it doesn't give you that feature allowing hotels and rental cars to put a temporary hold on your deposit.
The biggest problem I had recently was that they took away the rebate program. It ended about nine months or a year ago. Every time you use the card now, you get that dollar fee. They used to refund you that fee at the end of the month or at the end of the statement cycle, and that used to be a perk of using the card. Then, the other time that there was a problem was when RushCard switched their EFT and got people's funds delayed. I used to work for a bank, and that was handled completely wrong — across the borderline and illegal. The issues that I and the rest of the consumers had when they had the EFT change breaks banking compliance law. Luckily, it didn't affect me, like my rent being late, but it potentially could have.
We're looking at Russell Simmons walking down the VIP line and there were people who were about to get evicted. As a matter of fact, I'm a manager for a company, and one of my new employees, that I had advised to get a RushCard for her paycheck, was one of those that were affected. It took her two weeks to get her money and she had just started there. She had just gotten out of a homeless shelter and into a transition house, so that could have made her homeless again. RushCard wasn't even notifying people on the phone, and she had to keep calling them for two weeks. When that outage happened, everybody all over the country were calling them for two or three weeks before they got their money.
But other than those two issues, so far RushCard has been okay. Overall, their customer service reps have been fine, except for the time when Rushcard had the big outage of the delay in people’s funds when they switched their EFT. But besides that, their customer service reps have been fine and I've had a fair experience with them.

I've been a member of RushCard for at least 10 years and I stay with them for their rates. Also, what they do for their cardholders, as far as the early deposits for your check that you get from the employer and that they give you the $2 to $5 fee back from the ATM, is good. One downside is that I ordered the new gold card and my numbers have all disappeared off of it so I eventually had to get another card. They also had a glitch in the system and nobody was receiving your money. And sometimes, you can't get through their contact number per se or they don't come back as quickly as you would want them to. But it's sporadic and the quality of what they do for it is good.

I've been using Rushcard since 2004. At first I just wanted the pink card. I have four children so I make sure all my children have cards so if my children are out, I am able to give money to them. And when I travel, I only use my prepaid card because if I'm traveling, sometimes my regular checking account gets cut off, thinking it's fraud. I also use RushCard to pay most of my bills online and so I also don't have to worry about any fraud. I use the direct deposit. My check goes there every two weeks.
But there's a language barrier with their customer service reps. I feel they just have a script and they don't deviate from that so no matter what you say, that's what they're gonna say all the time. It's no way to be personable with it. They can't use the can-will-do attitude. They just do the can't, so I try not to call at all. I've referred RushCard to my nieces, nephews, and my sisters, basically all of my family so they all have it. If the children need something, they can always call and whoever gets the call can send it.
The only thing I wish RushCard still had was the text to send money versus the log-in. That was really good. I loved when I could just send a text message and send money to my daughter. And also if I forget my password and I change it, I can't change it again for another 24 hours so I would be kinda stuck. And sometimes even if I know the password and something happens, sometimes it just doesn't take it correctly so I have to change it but it used to be “I could call and they could unlock it for me," but they can't do that anymore.

The access to load my card has been awesome. I can do it anywhere like MoneyGram and the Western Union. I've had my Rushcard for 12 years now but I don't use it online because the turnaround time is too long. Also, I believe that once you've been with a company for a decade, you shouldn't be charged for each transaction. You deserve a little more leeway on behalf of being loyal customers. And with that, some type of loyalty program would be nice. Rushcard started getting people that don't speak English to answer the phone and my latest couple of interactions weren't so awesome. It's very hard when you're already frustrated because you got an issue that needs clarity and you call in but you can't even get past the customer service person because they don't understand what you're saying.

I have been a RushCard member since 2004. Unfortunately every time I have an issue, customer service has several layers of unnecessary red tape. I understand the need for policies and procedures, but all that I have experienced is overkill. When I attempt to explain my issue, they say they understand, but then do the opposite of what is needed. Recently, I used my RushCard for a hotel stay. There was an issue with my stay, so in good customer service, the charge was reversed and credited back to my account. When I contacted RushCard I was told that it could take 30 days for me to have my monies released or I could have the merchant provide a letter requesting to release the hold.
The merchant was kind enough to take the time to complete the letter, faxed to RushCard and forwarded a copy to me for my records. Well after the General Manager made three attempts by fax, it was suggested by RushCard that I upload it to my online account and I did. Then I was asked to have the letter signed and resent, so I made the request to the GM and she happily obliged. Then after continuing to say that they did not receive the fax, they reviewed my uploaded copy and stated that they needed more information. I had never been told this before after speaking with several RushCard representatives. So I again asked the GM to take time out of her busy schedule (even interrupting her training class) to complete another letter to add information that wasn't previously requested and she again obliged.
I explained to some of the representatives that I am a Diabetic with High Blood Pressure and I have been waiting to purchase my medication with my $112.00 credit on my card. I am a single parent with limited income and every dollar is accounted for and needed. After RushCard continuing to state that they didn't receive my fax, I had to again upload my copy only to be told that their corporate office tried to contact the hotel and could not get through, so they would not release my hold. At this point, I am in total shock from their claim that they could not reach a National Hotel that receives thousands of calls daily. I pleaded with the rep. to make another attempt and reach out to the hotel and to realize that I had complied with every request made and it feels like I am being treated unfairly.
The last rep. asked that I call the hotel on a 3 way call and I did. She requested that the front desk clerk have her company take a block off of their business phone and send another letter so that they can call. The front desk clerk advised that since it was a business with a national account, she could not request that any block be removed so that they can discuss a reversed charge that they had already received validated documentation. So needless to say I continue to not have my money or my medication and after repeated requests made for account escalation.
I also requested for supervisors to take charge and work through the unnecessary red tape to assist a long time customer. This is a total disregard for me and no value placed towards me as a customer that has made large deposits and has used this card countless times. I plan to discontinue my use and close my account and I would recommend that others look elsewhere to other similar companies that has better customer service and values their customers.

I liked the design of the pink Baby Phat card. RushCard has no hidden fees and it's just easy to do business with them. It's easy to track and monitor your transactions. You can also set up an alert to notify you over a certain dollar threshold. I've been having my RushCard for about 10 years and I've had a good experience except for this last year when they were doing some type of system updates. It was on three different occasions where I’ve loaded money onto my card and it didn't post to my card. I had to call it in a couple of times. It was really frustrating because of the high call volume. I guess I wasn't the only person that it happened to. One time, I did another Rushcard reload and it didn't post to the account again but at that time, it didn't have anything to do with system updates so I didn't why.
That was my three experiences that I've had in the past 10 years, which is not bad for 10 years. However, when you're loading your funds on a card and that's all you have, then you have to wait 14 to 21 days for them to do research and get you your money back, that would be a problem. But during times when I had to get a password reset, I was able to get through them right away and they were able to walk me through the process.

I’ve been using it for three years and the mobile alert lets me know if any purchase is being made with my card as well as the ending balance so I’ll know how far I need to go. Every time I went to use my card, as long as my account is in good standing and there was money there, I never had a problem with it. I use the direct deposit more frequently, all I do is to get the bank their account and routing number. Once they have it, my checks go to my card so it was a plus.

When I called to inquire about it, he told me about a plan where they take $45 a month and no matter how many times I swipe that card, I don’t see those transaction fees. They’re automatically taken care of. I don’t have the transaction freeze now because of that. He was very thorough about it. He made sure I understood exactly when it would start and how it would go. Every time I call RushCard, I always get somebody that’s going to assist me.
I had a problem one time with a charge I wasn’t aware of and they worked with me. They made sure that they got my money back on the card and they were able to access my account. I was not able to do it. Also, there was one particular time when the deposit was late. I know it’s man-made so there’s going to be glitches every now and again. But it was happening at a time when we had just gone through a storm here in Louisiana and we really needed funds because I hadn’t had light in a couple of days. That was the only time I ever had an issue but I understood what was going on and they made it right for me.
Recently RushCard sent me a check due to what I lost when we had that flood and our cards didn’t work in Louisiana. That let me know that they did care.

I’ve had Rushcard since 2004. I’ve had some difficulties with them at the beginning. The process was very inconvenient for me when I had to make a big purchase. I was trying to purchase a used automobile. I wanted to pay for it and I was unable to make the full payment and I had to do it in intervals every day while I was on vacation. I wanted to purchase it before I left but that was not possible because of the limitation put on me. I got ran around all over the place trying to get this transaction done. Sometimes when I would go on the telephone to inquire about something, they would give me a whole different name that wasn't even on my account. Then the other day, I was trying to do something with the Rushcard and they told me I had several accounts and that they couldn't match my address to my Rushcard. But, so far, some of my experience has been okay.

I do a lot of internet shopping so I a few pre-paid debit card. I saw a commercial for RushCard so I ordered one. I loaded $20 just to go ahead and activate it. RushCard gets $9.95 off the top. So when I applied for the card online, it didn't give me an option to put in my promo code. So I called. I don't know how I got a number to get to an actual human. But finally after me continuously going through this automated service I googled myself upon a number that allowed me to talk to someone. I had a promo code for $50. But I must didn't read the fine print. It was $25 upon activation and $25 for direct deposit.
DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!! OK so $25 within 24hrs. Cool. The money was deposited. So now about this $1 transaction fee. I used my card on a DAILY BASIS so this would not be a good card for me. So out of the money I loaded and the $25 promo RushCard got $14.95. After reading quite a few direct deposit reviews I'm a little hesitant about doing so. So I won't be getting the other half of my promo. Great idea. But who is winning here? Oh and it took $4.95 to load it at the Family Dollar!!! The Pause Button is good though.
Hello Ajata. I certainly apologize for the hassle you have gone through. I took a look at your account and see that you have received the first $25 promotional credit. You are also enrolled in the Pay As You Go plan, which charges $1 per transaction for up to 10 transactions per month. If this is an issue you can certainly switch to RushUnlimited, which only charges a monthly fee of $7.95 per month and is reduced to $5.95 per month if you are enrolled in direct deposit. All of this information is in your cardholder agreement and available on our website at www.rushcard.com. Please send us a private message and we can discuss this further with you.

Love getting my check on Wednesday. I never have to worry about my deposit being made on time. I miss the ATM reimbursement for anything that was over $10.00. The App is great, very easy to use, straight very forward. Would like to be able to transfer to and from other financial institutions.

I've been a RushCard member since 2013. I had my husband and son sign up for RushCard to make transferring money easy and fast. It was great... at first. The transfers took about 20 minutes. Recently, they've increased to 30 minutes and just last night it took about 3 hours. Not only that, my husband received his payroll deposit yesterday and it stayed in pending status for about 2.5 hours before actually posting. The benefits that were awesome are not so anymore.

I did. But only after 10 days, when I was told by Rush Card no error was found in my account and funds would not be returned. Those were heart wrenching words, at the time. It took 2 months, but I am so grateful to NYPD, the investigators that looked into my case and to the bank for returning my money. This ordeal really caused me much stress and truly set me back.
If you experience an unfortunate event such as mine, "FILE A report" so a proper investigation will take place!
Best Wishes to All!

On 04/23/17 someone was somehow able to get into my account and withdraw $480 from my account while I was home and my card in my possession. I called Rushcard the moment I noticed the text of the transaction. I faxed, uploaded into my acct and emailed the dispute form as instructed. I was told not to worry, that the Rushcard team would handle the investigation and that I should receive a provisional credit within 5-10 days. On 05/06 I received an email requesting I call only to be told that the investigation concluded no error in my account therefore no money will be returned to me. No credit granted. $483! Gone??
I was asked to send a rebuttal letter which I have but at this point I am feeling hopeless and broke. I have been a member for 13 years, and was content with Rushcard until this experience. I never imagined this would happen. Nor that my service and loyalty to Rushcard would be dismissed in this way. What am I suppose to do now! Their customer service could only apologize for my loss and said there is no more they can do!! Why bank with Rushcard/MetaBank if you are not secure?
Hello Maria. I apologize for the hassle. When a transaction needs to be disputed, we ask that you complete an Unauthorized Transaction or Error Allegation form. This form will help us begin the formal dispute process (also called a chargeback).
1. We advise Visa of the fraud.2. Visa advises the merchant.
3. The merchant investigates and, if possible, sends back the signed sales slip to Visa.
4. Visa then returns the merchant's response to us for further investigation.
*If we do not get a response from the merchant, your card will be credited. However, the merchant must have ample time to respond, which is why the process can take up to 90 days to resolve.

Very disappointed. I have been going round and round since last week getting nowhere every time I call customer service about my 25.00 dollar deposit that was supposed to have been on my card. Every day I call and get a different answer. You have to wait 24 hrs. You have to wait for over the weekend. You have to wait two business days. This is not right!!!
Hello Laura. We certainly apologize for the hassle you have gone through. I took a look at your account and see that you have received the first $25 of the promotion. In order to receive the remaining $25 note that you will need to enroll in direct deposit and have a deposit of at least $100. Please send us a private message if you have any further questions.

I’ve had RushCard for four years. I wanted to have something different from my bank cards. So, if I didn't want to give out my bank information, I could use that in turn. With it, I can pay bills and cellphone line as if I’m using actual credit on my debit card. I just enter in the same personal information, and then, it's either approved or declined. But they need a savings account so when you direct deposit, some money can go directly into that. The overall experience has been very good, except some time in '16 when the system crashed and some people weren't able to get their direct deposit. And I, unfortunately, was one of those and I didn't get my funds for a week. I’ve also had to speak with them a lot and the language barrier is very hard.
Velecia thanks for taking time to provide your thoughts and feelings regarding the RushCard service. In regards to the savings, while we do not have an official savings account where interest is earned, take a look into our Rush Goals program here https://www.rushcard.com/faq/rushgoals where you can set aside funds.

They put a hold on my card without any notification because Papa John's attempted to process a payment. When I called about it, the rep Maria couldn't understand basic sentences. I escalated the issue because I couldn't access my paycheck and Jose refused to admit they dropped the ball and made a mistake. He informed me I had to replace the card. They couldn't remove the hold. They charged me $30 to expedite a card they cancelled in the first place and refused to waive the fee.
When I asked to escalate the issue further because he refused to listen to me, he told me I would have to call back because they did not have any managers working. I asked for their employee numbers for my records so that I had something to reference who I spoke to. Jose gave me the exact same number twice and when I asked about that he said he couldn't give me anybody's personal info. I'm officially DONE with RushCard. You only have to burn me once to lose my business.

The higher ups at RushCard Corp should be ashamed of themselves! My boyfriend has been with this company for over 5 years and never had an issue. Friday he lost his card and like before when he lost his card, he requested a new one be sent expedited. To my knowledge the extra fee for that is 30 dollars. It is now Monday, no card and when he called to talk to someone they gave false information. I called back from MY phone and demanded to speak to a supervisor. Once again we were told a supervisor was not available. Once I started yelling and stating I would put in a complaint to ConsumerAffairs, miraculously a supervisor got on the phone. He stated his name was Frank, would not give his ID number nor last name. Frank stated that the card would be delivered Tuesday and when we requested a tracking number FOR THE SEVENTH TIME he would not provide it.
I have been telling my boyfriend that this company is HORRIBLE and has nothing but bad reviews. Today he saw exactly what I've been saying. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Do not speak English, read off of computers and are beyond ignorant. He is definitely taking his funds out of this garbage company and going somewhere else!
