I been with RushCard since 2012. My card was gonna expire this month. I was calling weeks before to see when they're gonna send my new card. Last time spoke with representative, he deactivated my card. I called RushCard so many times. When I ask for supervisor, it took 30 minutes to speak with supervisor. Call in again, took an hour to get supervisor. I ask "Can I get corporate number, can I speak with someone from corporate?" I wasn't able to speak with anyone in America and wasn't able to get a number from corporate. I get direct deposit on this card, wasn't able to pay my bills and had to borrow money from family until my card came and pay them back. Horrible experience with RushCard. I wish they had customer service in America. I'm looking for another prepaid card company.

Way back when Rushcard came out, they were the only one offering the services that they had at that time that I got it. Now, there’s a lot more debit cards but I stuck with them. In fact, I’ve been with them for ten years now and so far, it has been a good experience. One time my account got hacked and they stopped everything and I didn’t know something was going on and I was still able to get my funds back. Somebody was trying to book a trip and they notified me about it. I also like getting my paychecks sooner. Their reps were also calm, very informative and helpful.
However, every time I ask for a new card, they keep sending me the pink card and if I ask to get another card, they said there was a charge, which is weird because they have to make their money too, so another card shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve asked for a purple card but they still send this pink card. One time, they gave me a black card but I didn’t like that black card because the numbers erase a bit too fast. So I just kept the pink card with encrypted numbers so it’s better than the other one that I had. I wanted purple card with the diamonds on it but I never got that one. But other than that, I didn't have any problems with them. My mother and sister also have Rushcard.
Hello Kari! Thanks for your positive feedback. Unfortunately we no longer offer the purple card however if you would still like a different design, head over to www.rushcard.com and take a look at what we currently offer and we can get you a new card today!

I've had RushCard since 2007 and wouldn't trade it for a regular bank account! I just love it!! I wouldn't even get a bank account because RushCard does the job. They let me get paid two days before a bank would and plus they don't allow me to go over if I don't have it in my account.

I needed a debit card and a relative told me about RushCard. Since it's a Visa it's accepted mostly everywhere which is important and also, I get my money on time. I mostly rely on deposit to get the card loaded on and when family members needed to exchange money, we'll use RushCard. In addition, their reps were real good. Once, when I first started using it, something happened with my card and they had sent a check to me promptly so there was no dispute. I have recommended RushCard.

I make online payment and online purchases with my RushCard. It’s pretty convenient. Transactions usually go through with no problem as long as I have the money on the card. There was a store I went to that didn't accept my card because it was a Visa. They only take certain types of cards. I’ve been there since then with someone else working there and the transaction went through with no problem. So I just assumed maybe it was a new guy. He just didn’t know his job or didn’t really understand how to do certain things. I also do direct deposit with my card as I get my checks at about a three-day window. However, I don’t like it when I call their customer service. It’s a call center in India and we can’t understand each other.

I hate RushCard so much. Again I'm going through some bs with them just as I did last year. I got my IRS refund deposited into a RushCard and I ordered a RushCard because I lost the one from last year. They never sent my card to my address and said it was returned and then when I requested for another one they told me I need to review my identity and fax over paperwork. I have done it 2x's and they said it's not clear so they are holding my refund hostage. I'm reporting this company to everyone I can think of because I want my money away from this company. They have horrible service and they play too many games.

I've been with RushCard for a long time since when Russell Simmons first came out with it so the company must be doing something well. At the time, I didn't want anything linking my account to my bank. It was the best card out then. Also, back in the days if I use it enough, they give me part of my money back at the end of the month but they don't do that anymore which is the only bad thing. But it's still a good card. The best thing is I can’t spend what I don’t have on that card, so I’ve saved tons of money by using the prepaid card. And also by going out on trips and making sure I have receipts, I can always pan out the RushCard part of it in case I lose the receipts for work stuff.
I get my check two days early and using the direct deposit option is not difficult. I used to do the Wal-Mart one but it's such a hassle. It used to be good because I go up there and if I want to do $700, I could do it. But now, I got to have two separate payments if a purchase is over $500. It makes it look like they’re trying to be greedy with the loading the money part of it. But the RushCard people have been good. I call up there and they service me well. I can understand what they're talking about.
Hi Patrick. We are very happy to know you are enjoying you RushCard after all this time. We value you as a customer and would like to thank you for your positive feedback!

I loaded my Rushcard for the first time and they took a few off the top, I was unaware of. The rep said it was because the color card I chose. Then the rep said in an hour I would have the $25 promo added to my card and it did not happen. I called back and they said I would have to wait 24 hrs for the promo credit. After speaking to a supervisor, he said he was sorry I was misinformed but he could not do anything. I feel they should be accountable for they're training of properly educating their employees and should have been able to correct the situation immediately. Poor Customer service and will no longer use this card, nor recommend it to anyone. I can't believe Russell Simmons would attach his name to this.
Hi Majorie. We apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced.

Hello Michelle! Hopefully you have received your funds by now. Know that RushCard does not hold funds, however once they are sent from your employer they immediately go to our processing bank and from there to RushCard.

So I did, and it took so much to get through to an actual human who ended up telling me that there was NOTHING they could do and that I would have to order a new card and if I wanted it quickly I would have to pay the extra shipping. I don't agree with any of this. My card was blocked because of "suspicious activity" which I was not notified about and indeed was all transactions done by me, close to my home. My card was blocked on a holiday weekend leaving me with no access to any money and I had no cash on me. This was the most horrible experience I've had with any bank before!
Hello Hannah! At RushCard, it is important to us that we protect our customers who entrust their funds to us. As such, anything suspicious will flag our Risk department and cause a user's account to be put on hold or closed so your account was blocked to protect you. Looking at your account, our agents did notify you of the fee and you agreed to it as well before being charged. While we apologize for any inconvenience, we just want you to have access to your funds as quickly as you may need.

I have faxed y'all this information 2 times but I still can't sign up to get a RushCard cause it says that I need to send that same information in... now from the start the woman told me that it wasn't my fault that the person called on my card.

I been with Rush for almost two years. I referred my Hubby and my kids and we never got our 30. That part of sucks and we have direct deposited and my kids still being charged 8 a month and we are not happy with that. But on the next note it would be and could be a great Card to use for your children.
Hello Kaneshia! I took a look at your accounts and the reason you have not received the $30 Refer-A-Friend credit is because he must load the card himself via cash load, direct deposit or a check load through Ingo. A card to card transfer will not activate the promotion. Outside of that, it appears you are using your card and enjoying the RushCard service.

I have been using my RushCard since 2011. I have not had any problems until two years ago on my tax return refund I had to send documents showing who I was which I did. They release my funds. Now this year same thing happened. It took me two days to find a fax machine to send them the documents. When I called to see if they released my funds they told me they sent it back to the IRS so now I have to wait until Monday and call the IRS and see what I have to do to get my money. This really upset me that they didn't wait at least 5 days before returning it. Yes I will still use my RushCard but I will rethink before I have my tax money deposited to it.
Hello Kim! We certainly apologize for the inconvenience however if a tax refund is over a certain amount, documentation is required to expedite the process. A message should have been sent to you prior to your funds actually being received as well to alleviate this issue.

Hello Kiara! We understand how you feel. If you’re getting hit with a bunch of these fees, you’re likely on The Pay as You Go Plan, which carries a maximum of ten $1 transaction fees per month.

I have been a RushCard customer for quite a while, since 2008 or so... For the most part I have been satisfied EXCEPT whenever I have a physical problem with my card. I am TERRIFIED to contact someone at the customer service department, because WHENEVER I HAVE, my damn card gets shut off and I am left without access to my funds. Back in October 2010, I was getting close to the expiration date on my Rushcard. I received an email letting me know a new card was on the way. As the expiration date got closer, 2 weeks away, I got nervous and called Rush to find out when my new card was going to ship. The foreigner at the call center then proceeded to CANCEL my still-good card and left me high and dry without funds. Almost got evicted for non-payment of rent. Supervisors were of no help, had to wait and eat ramen until a new card was issued. AT NO TIME did I request that my existing card be cancelled!
In 2012, my card became cracked due to use and I reluctantly called to ask about obtaining a replacement card. I got names, and very pointedly told the foreigner about my prior experience and stressed that I DID NOT WANT TO DEACTIVATE this card, just needed a new one that wasn't falling apart. He assured me that there would be no problem this time. GUESS WHAT? I went to the market after hanging up and MY CARD HAD BEEN CANCELLED!!! I raised holy hell, got the number to corporate, spoke to an English speaker finally, who had a replacement card sent in two days.
2015... out of the blue, my card was cancelled for "security reasons" that NO ONE could explain to me over the phone. Took 7 days to receive a replacement, cost me $100 in late fees to my landlord. Right now, my current RushCard is so worn out, my name and card number are nearly invisible. I get questioned whenever I present it at a merchant. BUT I AM TERRIFIED TO CALL and ask for a new card. I DON'T TRUST THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE department! They are HORRIBLE about card management issues.

This is by far some of the worst customer service I've ever experienced in my life. For starters RushCard locked people out of their money for days and didn't even bother to offer compensation, they had to be sued for it. Additionally, let's talk about how nobody can ever speak English fluently. Now I mean absolutely no disrespect because I like to consider myself a social justice Warrior. However, it's just not practical to think that people in a different country who do not speak English as a first language can provide high levels of customer service to a country that's primarily English-speaking. It makes absolutely no sense. Shame on you for putting those people in that position, I can only imagine the amount of bigotry that they have to deal with over the phone.
Oh, did I mention that you can't actually ever get a person on the phone in under 45 minutes and when you finally get to speak to someone there is a language barrier. Imagine how frustrating that is!! There's no consistency in this company. It's a ** show!! I'm probably to blame for sticking around so long. This place clearly does not value its customers.

I called the Its today to see if my refund had been released because I had a pending deposit email from RushCard stating that they needed documents to be able to release my refund which has never happened in 7 years. Secondly For 7 years my paychecks go direct deposit and I was never asked for any verification so why now? If theirs released it and I sent in my documents why can't you give me my money?
I will be calling BBB with a complaint in the am as well as a lawyer for unfair business practices for lawsuit. It is crazy and I will no longer use RushCard after this is over. When I work hard for my money I expect it to be in my account when it is suppose to be there and also with my paychecks they keep changing the time every week that they deposit my checks. One week it 12:30pm, next it's 3:00pm then it's 9:30. If it can go in at 12:30 once it can every time.
Hey Rhonda. We apologize for any inconvenience. If a deposit is over $10,000, proper documentation must be provided because it exceeds our deposit limit for automatic deposits. Also, with direct deposits we do advertise that you can receive your deposits up to 2 days early.

I have had my RushCard for 3 years. For a while everything was smooth. Now it seems like there is always problems with my money not being available to me. When you call customer service they don't understand you and they get everything wrong and don't know what they are doing. I had my tax return deposited on my card. When I filed I called CSR to get my deposit information and they gave me the wrong deposit info for an old card that I had reported lost years before. Because the card was inactive they "couldn't transfer it to the correct card". Nor could any of them explain why. But said they could MoneyGram partial to me.
It didn't make sense because if you can MoneyGram funds from that same inactive card why can't you transfer? Now I am waiting for a new card and won't get my money on time because of their mistake. Every time you call the next CSR tells you that what the CSR before told you was incorrect. The representatives are always very friendly but they don't know anything and aliens the entire call apologizing. And RushCard makes it nearly impossible to get a live rep on the line. Agree deferrals Calls I had to Google how to get a rep. It's so frustrating. The only perk is getting your deposit two days early but it's not work HALF of the problems.

My problems with RUSH when I had noticed a unauthorized purchase on my on October 20, 2016 for the amount of $162.56. Now since then January 25, 2017 I had received a letter from their dispute resolution center saying they were investigating the complaint for errors involving new accounts point of sale or foreign initiated transactions and they stated it could take at least 45-90 days for them to conclude the investigation. Although they were still in their investigation RUSH stated that they will put the funds into my account and I would have access to it. If in any case they said my claim was denied they will then debit the amount from my account and the funds would be considered as provisional credit. But my account with RUSH is not new and I haven't been out of the country to make a purchase abroad. So why would my claim be denied.
I know I didn't make this purchase but I guess they don't believe me and why should they. But just for the record I have been trying to correspond with RUSH since January 13, 2017.

I have been with RushCard for years. I like the early direct deposits and text alerts. However, the customer services is crap. They are not on the same page. People that don't understand what you are asking or telling them give you answers that aren't lawful in the United States. Here is what happen. I recently took a trip to Houston, Texas for my birthday and used my RushCard. Everyone that know me knows I don't carry cash. My RushCard is all I carry. So after paying for my hotel room, and other things RushCard blocked my transactions. Issue #1.
Then once I returned home and the different places released holds on my account RushCard still is holding them. I know from experience that it normally comes back on your card the same day or the next once they settle the balance. Issue #2 and then these so-called CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES tell me the merchants have to fax a letter to release the pre-authorizations. I have never heard of such bull in my life. Even then they said it can take up to 20 business days to get my money. I asked when did this start. The guy said this is an internal policy. However, per the law you have to have these so-called policy in writing where the customer can see them. I have never ever been this angry with them. Normally all is good but this is just some straight up bull. And yes I am angry.

I used the routing number I was given and signed up for direct deposit at my job and everyone got paid today but me I have no idea where my weeks pay is at and my job said everything is good on their end so therefore it's the RushCard.

I pulled money from my 401k for 14,040 and had it direct debited. They sent me a email that more information was needed to post my deposit. So I called customer service who told me to fax in documents Drivers license, SS card, information that I took withdrawal from Fidelity, and direct deposit info. I faxed them all in and was told money would post in a few days. I called in the following day and they said they are sending Fidelity back a check in 7-10 days. They stated my middle name is not on my RushCard but on all legal documents so that did not believe it to me.
However, they have been taking my paycheck and depositing it for 3 years, and deposited other amounts from Fidelity to my RushCard account when my full name is on my RushCard. I escalated the issue and showed them the 14,040 withdrawal information and they still refused to help me or give my money. I filed a BBB complaint and now I am looking for a attorney to file a lawsuit against them for unfair business practices. After this I will never use this company again!

Opened account in 03/2015, bank closed account in 07/2015. As of 02/08/2016, I have not received the balance of my account which is $401.68. I get the same response each time I get called or emailed. I had to contact the BBB of Cincinnati, Ohio. Someone from RushCard called and left a number and extension, which when I called back I was told that there was no such extension. My daughter is going same thing. Her amount is $468.00. It's such a fraud. We just want our money back. I have warned my family and friends of this. FRAUD.

I have had the worst experience ever with RushCard. Due to RushCard I lost my home. I never received my replacement card. I tried for 2 maybe 2 1/2 weeks to get a hold of customer service due to their stupid automated system. I spoke with several reps, supervisors, and managers to get an express payment for my funds. I started my process on 2/2/2017 and to no avail do I have my funds. There's always more info that they need. So by that being said I have sent all info. It is now 2/7/2017 almost a week later and still nothing a lot of automated push back. So thank you RushCard for assisting in my homelessness. Worst company and customer service experience ever.

I've been with RushCard since 2014. I've filled a dispute three time and two out those three times they denied the request saying there was no error on their end. This last time my card was stolen and funds was taken out at two atms. As soon as I saw that money was taken out I CALLED ASAP! I was out of town dealing with a death in the family and wasn't checking my account every 5 seconds. I filled out the form and was told I would get a provisional credit on Feb 3rd. Checked my account and there wasn't anything there.
After getting the run around I was finally told that I will not be getting a credit and the dispute was closed!! This is their second time doing this. The first time I just took the hit. Then I spoke with a manager by the name of James who said they were doing me a favor by doing the investigation!! A FAVOR!!! That was not a favor, that's what my $5.95 a month pay for!! I opened a credit union account because they deposit early and I will be closing my account and never ever looking back!!

Rushcard is really good. They have no fees. It's been more convenient since I used it. Also, when I called before, their rep was able to answer all of my questions.

RushCard has an easier process and costs less than bank fees. I've had them for ten plus years. I get alerts every time a transaction occurs and the app is so awesome. Everything is there and easily accessible. I have been able to use the RushCard online with a lot of places that won't accept prepaid Visa card, like paying back my student loans. Though I'm hoping that a lot of places move forward and allow this type of prepaid cards as well. But overall, I love the RushCard and the app. It makes everything easy for me.

I have been with RushCard for 15 years now. I liked it early on when we used to get cash-back at the end of each month based on the amount of purchases that we’re making. They haven’t done that for quite some time and I would love for them to bring that back. That would have been the biggest benefit as well as being able to have a prepaid card with a Visa logo which helps with booking hotels and things of that nature. So far, it helps me keep track of my day to day finances. If I can’t pay with cash, I don’t need it which keeps me from using credit. So, it’s been great.
I use Direct deposit more but their reload locations are not difficult at all. After being a customer for so long, I just know where they are. Furthermore, I had technology snafu a year ago wherein I experienced a very unhappy cab driver. I was traveling and I never carry cash, so I just had my card but I couldn’t use it because they were changing over their technology then so he thought that I was trying to steal from him. He was very irate and called the police. It was a big scandal. So I had to work my way up from customer service all the way to corporate to get documentation that it had occurred. It wasn’t necessarily the most pleasant experience, but ultimately it was taken care of and I haven’t had any additional issues.
I like the transparency and the expediency in which Russell Simmons reacts to things. I know that there was litigation that came out of that issue. But for the most part, I like him being responsive, making a public statement, and taking responsibility. That’s what I look for in customer service with anyone I deal with and to have that is great. It would also like for them to look for other minority-owned companies to partner with. And for long-term customers like myself, it'd great if there would be an option where we could switch over from a prepaid situation into a regular credit card. That'd be a really good incentive for people to stay with the company long, or those that have been with the company to continue on.
Hey Catina, thanks for the positive feedback! We certainly work hard for our customers and appreciate you taking time to let others know about how much you enjoy your RushCard!

My reason for writing this review is the lack of a phone number when you have an immediate need to speak with a representative. I have been a customer of the RushCard for a number of years and only recently can I recall it being so difficult to reach a live person. There needs to be an easier way when dealing with a company that houses our money. I haven't figured it out yet and I'm about to close my account and go with another provider. It's really sad that this is the only reason I am closing my account because it's such an easy fix.

I ordered a Rushcard several times. The customer service rep whom seems as if they don't understand English, told me the back office said, I need to send proof of identification, social security number, and proof of address. I've sent several copies of my ID, social security card and proof of address. They denied my copies and said they were not eligible. I've went back, spent more money, make more copies larger and clear fax those copies. For them to deny those as well I sent in several copies of several proofs of address over the month and they're still denying my forms. However just a week ago they accepted my proof of identification and social security number after sending 5 copies and lastly enlarged to 200%, but still denied my proof of address.
Now what have I sent. A letter from my dr., a bank statement, letter from the government, letter from the state, letter from IRS. Everything is clear and dated within the expiration date and they are still denying my forms. I'm on the phone now with them and they keep saying "I'm sorry. Go back and fax more copies." I've sent them everything I have. I'm very ill. I don't have transportation and I have a small 1 yr old child and I have no more money to send. I know they're probably trying to protect your security by going over these forms over and over. Overall this is the worst time I've ever had in my life. On my way to the hospital for major depression and stress. Thanks a lot RushCard for absolutely NOTHING!

It's been over a month and I still have not received my refer a friend credit. The person that I referred already received his credit and I did not. I had them email corporate and I was told I would receive a response within 48h and I still have not received a response. The supervisors are rude every time I call in about this issue. I've been a loyal customer since 2005 and even against my better judgment I referred a friend. I already had a salty taste in my mouth about RushCard because of last years mess up. After I receive my refer a friend credit I'm closing my RushCard account.

RushCard allowed my card to be cloned. I had over $400 taken from me and I still haven't gotten my money back. I filed a police report and contacted the merchants. I filed a dispute with RushCard. Their customer service is terrible, they are all overseas. You cannot talk to an American. They are scripted and unsympathetic. RushCard claims to be FDIC insured. Why do I have to wait 90 days on a decision to get my hard earned money back? Where is my provisional credit? They also don't give you the correct balance on your account. I have had the same transactions show up more than once. When you call them and try to get a supervisor it's nearly impossible. Do not trust these people with your hard earned money!
