On 4-30-2025 Card.com locked my account well essentially deleted my checking account as soon as I got a credit of $1,337.00. This was winnings from a casino I play on and have previously redeemed to this bank before with zero issues. Well with this deposit they decided to delete my checking account, I did not understand what was going on so I moved it to my savings. I called they told me to send an email with my id and refund receipt(which I quickly did). Its been 5 days no one has reached out to me. I have called every day, as this is my rent money, I just keep being told to email again and again. This is going to mess up mine and my childrens livelihood as we will lose our home. I am now going to pursue this issue using different avenues, as they do not care and theyre not even looking at the emails Ive sent. I am asking for my checking account to be fixed so I can access my money and pay my rent. I didnt do anything wrong theyre just withholding my money.Business Response

I received a debit card in the mail from card.com ************ account by pathward. I never set this account up. Based on recent reports, there are MANY of these complaints. This business should be shut down with the amount of fraud going on here. Or at least make it easy to speak to a human to see what is going on and to ensure the account gets closed. I tried contacting customer service without any success. They said they are closed. A card company should be available 24/7.Business Response

On April 4, 2025, we received a request to open the Account. We verified the ** information that we were provided using a third-party service. The account was opened with the identification information provided. Based on the complaint and positive confirmation that Ms. ***** did not apply for the CARD ************ Account, we have permanently closed the Account due to identity theft. There have been no deposits or card transactions in the Account. We can confirm that CARD does not report to the credit bureau, there is no correction for CARD to make.

Thank you for confirming that the account is now closed. But I am rejecting this response because there are several of these same complaints. Why would so many of the same issues occur within a short amount of time? More should be done to prevent this. Why would someone steal another persons identity just to open one of these cards? Doesnt make any sense. More investigating needs to happen to prevent this situation from happening. Plus, your card customer service number should be available 24/7 and it should be easier to speak with a human to address these types of situations.

I ordered a new debit card after they canceled my other debit card without telling me on March 10th. I paid an expedited fee to have it shipped by *** so I would receive it by the end of that week. However I did not receive the card by the end of that week. I called and was told that it could take up to 14 business days. I asked about the Expedition fee and she said they would have to open up an investigation to see what happened. I gave them the 14 days and called back again. Ask where my debit card was and they said they didn't know and that they did not have a tracking number for it. I asked about the expedited fee being refunded to my account and she said that would be done after the investigation was complete. Again I asked what I should be receiving my debit card and she said within four business days. However once again I did not receive my card in the mail. We are now going into April and I still have no debit card. I've ordered two of them since March 10th and have received neither one. *** has not delivered anything to my residence regarding this card or any card. Not being able to access my money to pay bills is causing a hardship. In addition to this after stating they were refunding me two fraudulent charges plus the Expedition fee my account is short 200 plus dollars. I sat down and did all the math and there is money missing. I just want my card so I can pay my bills and the money that's missing out of my account put back in it. I believe at this point the card should be sent to me overnight and not charged due to the inconvenience the company has caused meBusiness Response

Ms. ********* sent an email notifying us of her request to dispute two transactions totaling $79.98 on March 7, 2025. An email was sent to her advising that her dispute notification had been forwarded to the ******************* and that her card had been close to prevent further unauthorized transactions. Ms. ********* was asked to contact customer service for a replacement card. We spoke to Ms. ********* on March 10, 2025, and a replacement card was processed via expedite delivery. Due to a processing issue the card was not delivered within the 4 business days quoted for expedite delivery. The shipping fee was reversed on April 3, 2025, and another card was processed and shipped. We do not offer overnight delivery; we apologize for the inconvenience. The dispute was credited on March 13, 2025, if there are additional funds missing from the account Ms. ********* will need to contact us.Initial Complaint

I am trying to close on a mortgage, but I need my statement from February. The app says it is available and I have received my normal monthly notification that it is available. I've been told by customer service is it not available. I've also been told it's an error. They can't even find my statement. I've been told there will be a 48 business hour investigation at which point I can call back to see if there's been any updates. No apologies. No nothing. One service *** even pretended my phone was breaking up as an excuse to try and end the call. This is after months of the app not loading, the website not loading, being unable to see my balance, randomly not being able to make purchases, the electronic card constantly falling. It's a terrible terrible service. I need a simple bank statement, but for some reason that's both a problem and something worth getting upset over a customer needing. I won't be doing business with them anymore.Business Response

Card.com allowed a fraudulent bank account to be opened in my name. While identity theft is widespread, they are doing and exceptionally poor job confirming valid identity. Look through the other reviews, to see that this is standard operating procedure for them. They blame it on third parties they allegedly use to confirm identities. This is blatantly ineffective and done in bad faith. The company is set up so they arent reachable by phone, unless you give them your full social security number, amongst other information. No one in their right mind is going to do this. Ive made a report with the ************************************.Business Response

In March of 2025, card.com opened a bank account for my adult daughter, ****** *** ***** and allowed ****** to receive direct deposits to this bank account without asking for any type of id verification from her. If they would have asked for identification, they would have known that she is incompetent and I am her legal power of attorney when it comes to finances. It wasnt until AFTER she recieved two direct deposits in the amount of ****** and ****** that they immediately, within the hour of recieving the deposit, suspended her account. Leaving her unable to have access to her whole monthly SSI check. She should have never been able to even open an account with no verification. She isn't even in charge of her own finances. They refuse to even close her account and pay her money via check or any other way.
