    The worst experience in the world. Do not buy this card. Do not put money on it. It is nothing but a scam by Walmart. Cannot use anywhere, cannot reload, absolute total garbage. The worst customer service I have ever experienced.

    Do not use. They have stolen over $3000 from me and not returning it. I am going thru Better Business Bureau and Green Dot bank and police. They are a rip off, I am a widow on social security and they are taking my money.

    They literally let someone take all my money in my account and would not help me at all. No one understands English. I got nothing but the run around for over a month. They stated there was a charge on my account done online in India and I live in Arizona and there is nothing they can do. They send me back all my documents proving this was fraudulent on my account and closed my account. Please do not use 3rd party banks. I had to learn my lesson the hard way. Just a fare warning.

    When they overcharged you for a overdraft fee they will not reverse it. Even when you show it was done incorrectly, they still will not waive the fee talking about policies. Please pay attention to all your transactions.

    Don’t use them. They will rip you off. I had 93.68 stolen from me. Called them to get it back. Used every excuse they can not to refund it. Beware of them so you don’t get ripped off too from them. Wish you all good luck finding a good bank. God bless.

    I would not recommend this card, I was scammed for a large amount of money...I have had my card for 10 years, but I will never do business with them again..I filed a dispute and they denied me after 5 days before they got my paperwork, custom services is the worst, automated, transferred 10 times before someone actually talked to me.

    They claim that the monthly fee is waived if a person deposits $500 or more in a 30 day period. But this is misleading because a little less than a week and they deducted the fee already. So, you pay for the card initially, and they require you to put at least $20 cash on it and then a week later they deduct $5.94. From the statement they give, a person should have 30 days from purchasing the card before being charged. Especially since they already charged you for the card itself. But instead, they're charging you a usage fee when you haven't even used it yet.

    Absolutely Disgusting Treatment – Green Dot/Walmart MoneyCard is Forcing a 70-Year-Old Woman Into Homelessness! If I could give a -10 stars, I would. I am an advocate for homeless and displaced individuals, and I have never seen such heartless, incompetent customer service in my career. My 70-year-old homeless client, Pamela **, lost her Walmart MoneyCard, which holds her only source of income—$709 in Social Security funds. For the past five days, I have been forced to deal with robotic script-readers who refuse to address the issue.

    Pamela followed all their instructions, sending a clear, valid copy of her ID, yet every day we are met with new roadblocks and excuses. Yesterday, one of their representatives said she could go to Walmart, show her ID, and access her money—but today, a so-called "supervisor" named Shregun coldly denied that option, refusing to release her money at all. Let’s be clear: Green Dot is knowingly leaving a senior citizen homeless. They are refusing to send the money back to Social Security, meaning she can’t even get it reissued. This is theft. I told this so-called "supervisor" that if they do not release Pamela’s money TODAY, I will escalate this to every authority available:

    Wilkes-Barre Township Police Department
    The On-Call ADA (Assistant District Attorney)
    Consumer Affairs
    My State Representative

    My Congressman

    And this is just the beginning. If anyone at Walmart Money Center actually has a mother, a conscience, or a heart, they will step up immediately to rectify this disgusting situation. Otherwise, this review stands as a warning to every vulnerable person: Do NOT trust Green Dot or Walmart MoneyCard with your money—especially if you’re elderly, disabled, or struggling. I will NOT waste another second speaking to underpaid, script-reading customer service reps who lack the authority or common sense to resolve this. Fix this NOW.

    Michele **

    Advocate for Pamela **

    Third month in I put next month's bills on the card and overnight Uber in San Francisco charged me 294.63 for 7 rides. I live in Maine... Only used the card for bills. Hard to believe someone just punched in the magic numbers or better yet my card somehow flew 5 thousand miles overnight to take an Uber around the city. Filed a dispute and they said I had ten days to mail in proof that it wasn't me that made the purchase! Then said it'd be 90 days or more to receive it back. Oh yeah and they shut the card down so all my bills would be late by the time the new card would arrive. The woman I spoke with I couldn't understand one bit, took ten times what it should've because of having her slow down and repeat what she said... Don't bother. Big corporate scam on us!

    Well, in the beginning, I liked my account but then I discovered that you have to pay to load money on it in store, you have a transfer limit, not to mention it cost me almost 7.00 every time I get money at an ATM ... I had my tax refund deposited to my card and because it had my husband name and my name on joint return they sent it back to IRS and I had to wait for them to verify identity and send me a check in mail so that was 16 weeks I waited to get my return, then I just ordered a card and paid 15.00 for shipping and I haven't received my card yet and I can't access my money because I live 40miles from a Walmart that closes early and customer service will not give you money of your card only money center can... Not to mention I found out I can't transfer but a certain amount to another card so I'm screwed and can't access my paycheck. THANKS MONEY CARD!!!

    This card company “green dot banking” sucks. I had fraud in my account and it took almost 6 months to have these people figure it out. At the end they still aren’t refunding me all my money back so I’m still fighting with these people. Most of the time the only people who understand what I need are the supervisors. All other staff is a waste of time.

    I opened a Walmart Moneycard to use when I travel. I used it in September 2024 in Canada without any issue. I had recently placed money on the card for my next vacation and 5 days before I leave, I tried to use the card to make a purchase for my trip and it was declined. I thought nothing of it thinking maybe I had the number wrong or locked it. I attempted to log in and was informed my account was "closed due to suspicious activity."

    I called customer service, and they were basically useless. They informed me the suspicious activity was two deposits. . .from MY bank. . .that I initiated. Oh, did I mention my banks are linked. This is the exact process I used on my last vacation without a problem. I am also upset that there was no communication. I did not receive a call, email, text, or anything. Now, I have been told my account is blocked, "NOT EXACTLY CLOSED," SO THEY STILL CHARGED ME A MONTHLY FEE! I have no access to my money and the block "cannot be reversed." I have had to file a dispute with the original bank to have them recall the money. Great, that can take up to 45 business days. I will tell anyone who will listen to NOT do business with this card company. Horrible and horrible on Walmart for promoting them.

    This was the worst experience using this debit card. I've had credit fraud and didn't want to link my savings or checking accounts to my bank. So, it's like you get punished for not doing that bc I now have to pay $3 to add cash to my Walmart debit card, which I do in person. And then they charge you $5 a month for fees. Sure adds up quickly. Waste of my time and I will be discontinuing my account with them.

    I had five unauthorized transactions totaling over $200. All of these transactions, as stated on my transaction history, were done through CashApp. I signed up for Cash App two months prior, but never activated the card. Walmart MoneyCard has done nothing to investigate and locked my account. It will take at least two weeks to get a new card and reactivate my account. In the meantime auto payments are failing, I am losing services and being charged fees. Use the service if you choose but no they won’t be there for you when you need them.

I bought the card from nearby Walmart and loaded $200.00 and then when I checked my balance is 0.00 and I called them and they said email the receipt and I did. They don’t want to refund me. I still fighting to get it back but now they blocked my card too. They don’t have an office to go in person so please be aware of this. They are scammers.

    I bought a card on 09/24/24. I went home, activated the card and the money had already been taken off the card. I have called the 800 number on the card multiple time being assured they will investigate and email an update. They opened a file and gave me a file#. I did everything they asked and then called two days later and they said they never received my receipt. Sent it again and one day later again said they never received it. Third time sent it in and called same day and was told since the money was spent. They can’t no longer track the fraud and basically I am out my $500.00. So Green Dot Bank is a fraud.
