GO2bank gave a debit card to a scammer with a fictitious SS # and email address. They then used that card to hack into my Paypal and withdraw money from my bank account. If they had more security features and had checked the person's social security number with their physical ID this would never had happened. Be careful with this Bank. Their security measures are not very good. Scammers will use this bank to take your money. When I called to complain they got upset and hung up on me just because I could not provide the entire account number of the person scamming me. Paypal only gives the last four digits of the card number.

Worst bank ever. Can’t close the account. Do not even waste your time or money with this bank. Not even affiliated with the Better Business Bureau. Do not use GreenDot because they are one and the same. That is how I was stuck with this bank.

This bank allows scammer to open accounts and trick employers to deposit payroll checks then close their accounts. This happened to my business and when you try to reach go to bank, there's no one that will even speak with you. In my opinion, they are complicit in these illegal activities, allowing scammers to use their platform to scam others out of money. Be warned stay. Not a bank for honest credible people or businesses. Here we have informed the FBI who are formally looking into this bank.

Don't waste your time unless you love paying fees for everything you do and fees for the nothing they do. I've been sent 3 different cards. Can't use any of them but my money is just going to them for their monthly maintenance fees. If it wasn't such a small amount of money I have left there I would raise hell. But I'm commenting to let others know there's so many other apps that actually work and don't charge you for anything. This isn't one. I would give zero stars if I could.

I purchased a GO2 card. The card has been blocked. I used the app. It never helped. I called customer service and they were rude and didn’t fix my card. They hung up instead of fixing my card. It has been 3 months and I still haven’t been able to use my card. They took my 100.00 dollars. Changed me $5 a month. My card is at 85.00 dollars now and I have not been able to use it. Customer service has not fixed the problem. Call after call. I am on my 3rd month. Lost my money. I will never get anything from go2 bank again!! I am getting ahold of the Better Business Bureau. My children and I had to use our light bill money to cover the loss. Now our electricity is shut off. My food is spoiling and go2bank still has my money on a card that will not work. For 3 months now! I will never use Go2bank again!

My overdraft protection was reinstated one day then the next day it was suspended without me even using it. Their explanation was I reached my overdraft limit in the billing cycle and bring my account to a positive balance which my account was never overdrawn cause I just recently got paid. I don't know it's just weird and I never resolved my issue, just left it alone, got real irritated and just hung up. SMH. Need better service and understanding on Go2 Bank part.

Go2 Bank Is a complete joke. I had someone steal my account no and make over 600 in purchases. They make you go thru this stupid dispute paperwork telling me they have to do an investigation and it could take 90 days. I have to fill out the paperwork within 10 even though I have no idea what they bought or how much, they tell me and I fill it out. I call them a couple days later they inform me they have already made their decision and they deny me claim. They say because the scammers used my email account and debit card no I had to of made the charges. I was like what I have called you about for the last 4 days. I have asked you for help due to the fact I cannot get into my account. My phone no has changed and I cannot get into that email. Your customer service just says, "Sorry we cannot help you with that." Due to the fact the scammers used my info I must have done it. What do you think scammer do? This place is a joke. Do NOT use this place!!

I purchased a card yesterday at the store and deposited funds. After I activated the card a smaller window popped up containing False information!!! I was trying to make an online payment for my internet and it declined about 3 times. I reached out to GO2bank through chat and after I let her know what was going on. This person kept repeating the same answer every time I sent a reply so a good 8 times [you need to provide the documentation required for access to the account*. I sent them the screenshot of the pop up message I received because I chose not to verify my identity because I don't have an ID on me....both the app and desktop site provided me with the same alert that my account was considered limited featured and this included me having access to view my balances and use the money in the account!!!!
The chat agent clearly was not interested in helping me at all. In fact I am sure she blocked my acct because I advised them I was going to call instead, by the time the agent answered it was already locked and he kept repeating the same thing as the chat agent. I needed to provide documentation in order for me to use my money, he also told me that my transactions were declining because I had the temporary card. I repeated myself to him for a good 15 minutes and he was trying to help or at least it felt like it to me. I felt he had sympathy not empathy! When we purchase temp cards you can use your funds as soon as you activate it. The identity verificatiojn is needed if and when you request your personal card! Again the system itself provided me with the features limited features that were available to me. USE THE MONEY IN MY ACCOUNT MAKE PURCHASES!
So why the hell are their agents locking my account because I decided for one of the 2 available options they provided me with (app, system). Agent also told me I could not make purchases nor withdraw money from my card because since it needed to use a pin and that is only available when they send me my personal card!!! Wth so I have to wait until I receive my personal card!? I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE THE FREAKING TEMP CARD!
Seriously this company is just horrible and I know the whole "the customer is always right" crap has been misused and abused but in this case I provided the proof I was talking or chatting with a brick wall. I asked to speak with a manager and they told me they were going to tell me the same thing they had already provided me with to upload an id! I DON'T NEED TO ACCORDING TO THEIR SYSTEM. WTH. This is so crazy. No they, made me feel crazy, seriously people we don't need to be dealing with companies like this. Choose another one because Go2bank could give 2 F's about their potential clients!

This is by far the worse so called bank that I have ever dealt with. I CAN'T ACESS MY MONEY WHEN IT IS POSTED ON MY ACCOUNT. THEY TOOK EXTRA 75 OUT OF IT AND MADE MY ACCOUNT GO IN OVERDRAFT. Now they say they can't do anything but they telk me every month that nothing is pending, blame it on the merchant but in reality it's their fault. Now they say it could be the 14th before they release my money. I thought that they never held deposits but they are not saying why a extra 75 was taken out of my account and held by them. No one will tell me. They blamed it on the merchant.

After six or seven years. First a Green Dot customer then automatically transitioned to Go2bank customer. They finally closed my account. For no reason. I have been on good terms the whole time. I recently asked for help disputing some charges that I ended up getting refunded without go2bank intervention. They have terrible customer support. I have received replacement debit cards in the past which had to be replaced before I actually received them. I know it sounds crazy, but it's real.
They are the worst financial institution that I am aware of. Everything was find up until a few days ago when I received a suspicious message so I called their support phone number and confirmed the message was legitimate. No explanation. Just closed. After more than six years of maintaining a positive balance. I strongly suggest to avoid the hassle altogether.

I would give this bank zero stars if I could. Scammers love using this bank because it is probably run by scammers. I did not authorize a big purchase from a store I never go to. And to make matters worse, the transaction was made in TEXAS when I live in a state over a thousand miles away. I submitted solid evidence to the dispute team that I did not authorize the charge, and they rejected all my evidence. DO NOT USE THIS BANK because they are difficult to contact, they do not actually stand up for you, and you can't actually add funds when using it at an ATM. They are difficult to contact and will sometimes hang up from their end.

DO NOT USE THIS "BANK". I made a purchase through UberEats which was refunded the same night because the order was wrong. The original transaction of $61.78 sat pending for 10 days, on the tenth day the pending charge disappeared but the money wasn't added back to my balance. On my transaction history, there is no charge for $61.78 from anyone.
I contacted them through the chat option and he said "the charge posted for $61.79" but I can't see ANY transactions for it on my ledger. I told him if you do the math based on my ledger it shows that I'm short the $61.78. He was adamant that it shows as a posted transaction, with no explanation as to why it's not in my history. I sent a screenshot through that chat of my ledger and he disconnected the chat. As far as the "refund" goes, UberEats told me they didn't finalize the transaction and it should have just fallen off and been returned to me. Go2Bank claims the charge went through. Despite the proof I have from UberEats.

Another scam, this bank and their credit card called Go2Bank. It's a scam and I do not know why they are allowed to work in the USA. I purchased the CC and they needed social Security # to activate it. I DON'T. I called the number on the card and requested a refund. I was told to provide a photo of the debit card, photo of the purchase and cash loading receipt. I instantly provided this information by email, after 3 times calling their customer service, they gave me another Claim #, told that I would receive a refund by mail within 10 days weeks. Received another email with different claim # that the refund is mailed. Today, I called and they said the refund was processed and should arrived in 10 days. They could not answer me, if the refund was mailed or is in process, and they could not answer the email I received with different claim number. Their PO BOX is in West Chester, OH and call center in India. Do not do business with this bank!

This is a SCAM, someone had made a withdrawal while I was sleeping and I had my card with me, don't know how this happened and I did a dispute the very same morning when I received the notification and they denied my claim saying that I authorized this transaction, which I didn't.

I have been with GO2bank for close to a year now. I basically use it for small transactions online because it's convenient, plus I wanted to try online banking vs the usual brick and mortar banking to weigh the pros and cons. Go2bank has very poor customer service and are hard to communicate with if you only speak English. I have issues with the amount of time it takes to receive refunds or make deposits because they keep the in "pending" mode where those funds are unaccessible until they do their job to clear them. I have had issues with how rude their customer support is and they are known to hang up on you or cut off your online chat.
I have read other reviews and was surprised to see the countless number of bad reviews they have. Part of Go2bank's problem is that nobody complains about them and their shady practices to the proper authorities or follow through with their complaints. File complaints with the FTC and if everyone did this Go2bank would be no more. Many of these complaints I have read about them appear to be criminal.

The worst experience of my life. Go2bank prevented me from being able to make the purchase of a lifetime. It was a very nice vehicle for a very kind price. Probably the kind of deal I'll never find again. They did not allow me to pull more than $3,000 a month out of my account in cash making it impossible for me to purchase this vehicle. Therefore I lost the deal. We had to go with the vehicle that I do not even care for. It would be very hard to find a vehicle for only $3000 that's worth buying. Since when did people use banks that don't allow them to use their own money when they want to use it in the amount they want to use.
That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever been part of in my life. I thought banks were there to keep your money safe for you and allow you to use it as you need it. I did not know that they were in charge of how much of it you could use and when you could use it. My mistake but it's a mistake I'll never make again. If you're thinking about signing up with Go2bank I would think again. In fact I would run with smoke coming off my shoes. I wish I would have read the fine print. That's exactly what they told me I should have done and they were right anyways, bottom line, Go2bank sucks. Go somewhere else.

Go2Bank is the worse, I called them because for two days in a row, I tried taking money out of my account and the ATM kept reading "Contact your Financial Institution." I did not understand why when I know I had more than enough money in this account. So after trying the second day while on my lunch break, and I got the same message, I went back to work and called Go2bank asking them why wasn't I able to get money out, so the rep who hardly spoke any english check and said, "Ma'am you're not able to get money out because you exceeded your daily amount" ($500). I said, "How, when I am calling you because it won't allow me to take any money out?"
She went on to tell me that within two day there were several hundreds of dollars, all ATM transactions taken from my account, I almost passed out when she told me that, she asked me if I had my card and I told her yes, it's in my hand. I told her that I did not make any ATM transactions and a lot of them were made in a town I did not live in or near where I live. She told me that she first canceled the card and ordered me a new card with new number, she transferred me over to the dispute department, they sent me a form to fill out and told me to write a letter disputing the charges, I did and sent it back to them immediately, they told me that it could take up to 10 days for the investigation, well once I sent the documents back, the very next day.
2-3 days later, I received an email saying that they investigated and came to the conclusion that I authorized these charges and that they were not going to give me my money back, I was devastated. Someone violated what was mine over $1000 within 2 days and they blamed me. I called back to have them reopen the case and they told me that this was their final decision, and I continued telling them that this is wrong and I need to speak to someone higher, the rep told me that her supervisor is going to tell me the same thing. I told her, "Well I still want to speak to your supervisor," she told me that the supervisor would call me within 24hrs.
It's been several days and no one has called me. So I called them back and received the same treatment and told the same thing, she told me that they do not have a direct line to the investigation team. So basically they want me to accept that fact that someone stole money from me and they are not willing to help me, who has been a loyal customer up until this happened, I am going to continue to fight this. I have a police report and plan to seek legal action against this company GO2Bank. I am also going to terminate my business with them, they are not for their customers and I hope they go out of business. I don't recommend anyone to use this bank, they don't stand up for their customers. They just lost a good customer. PLEASE BEWARE OF GO2BANK!!!!

I have been with GO2bank for about 2 years.

Against my will and without my permission and I clearly explained to her that she wasn't understanding me right. And I told her she has no permission to lock my card. She did anyways. I have nothing against anybody but if you're messing with someone else's finances. You should be fluent in all languages that might call you.
I filed a complaint with Consumer Protection, the Federal Reserve Agency sent them a letter and that's it.

Go2Bank and affiliates (i.e. Green Dot Bank) are out of country fraudulent entities with an address set up in Ohio. They allowed a Social Security check to be deposited to a fraudulent account and are not cooperating for a refund. I have talked with agents, supervisors, corporate representatives, they all sound to be from India. Almost a dozen representatives and 9 hours later, I get different answers and taskings to try to get money back. They now say that SSA has to send them something in writing, and SSA says they don't do that. So I guess I'm out $2600. I filed a police report. The detective claims some online banks are frequently set up for scamming purposes. This appears to be one of them.
Be advised, my calls to customer service have averaged 15-60 minutes just for someone to answer. When calling their only listed number, it's interesting they have an option to "press 2, if you think you've been a victim of ID theft". Also, they do not have email. You can only write or call. Probably to prevent tracing their IP addresses. Don't trust their advertising. FDIC insured...I'm not so sure about that. I highly suggest sticking to a local bank or credit union to handle your money! At least you know they are actually in this country.
