    Ms. ****** account was suspended on January 10, 2023, for verification of transactions occurring in *****. ************** filed a dispute on January 12, 2023, for all out of country transactions and she also requested to dispute all transactions that occurred in January 2023, except for three transactions.The disputed transactions totaled to $1,918.72. Ms. ****** claim was denied on January 23, 2023, and a letter was mailed. We received a rebuttal on January 24, 2023. We re-reviewed the claim, and it appears that the out of country transactions are true fraud; however, the additional transactions the customer added to the dispute appear to be valid. We overturned the denial decision on the out of country transactions and issued credits totaling to $642.31 on January 27, 2023. ************** received refunds totaling to $1,081.52, from some of the merchants. We are standing behind the denial for transactions totaling to $194.89. Should you or ************** require any additional information feel free to contact us at **************.

    I consistently have incorrect charges as soon as a deposit clears. (Customer for years) most have been acknowledged and credited back, after we cancel the card and get a new one. The most recent was a charge of $139 of which I tried to contact merchant immediately and the phone number for the merchant on the charge is not a working number. I immediately filed a dispute. When I called today, almost 4 weeks later, they stated they are denying claim because merchant had my accurate info. However wont provide proof to me of how they contacted them with a non-working number. They were disrespectful (who cares) and said they wont reopen if I dont have additional documentation. How am I to prove a transaction doesnt exist if I didnt make the transaction? They will not give me access to speak with the investigators and I have no way to contact the obvious fraudulent merchant. This has happened many times this year with card.com and honestly- I am sure there are more over the years but I wasnt looking for mistakes so that is on me. Their reaction seems intentional and coordinated. And I can only imagine that a class action suit would be very very easy to put together but I prefer not to be letigious. I would like to see something to keep others from this type of costly fraud. Thank you for your attention in this matter. And I wouldnt mind an apology.

    An account with a **** branded debit card was fraudulently issued in my name. I attempted to contact card.com but was unable to talk to a human.

    I have had an account with this institution for over a year. My VA disability payments are sent here via direct deposit. I have had my ************************ payments automatically deducted for about a year. I recently received a refund from Liberty Mutual for being charged insurance for months on policies that dont exist. **** locked my account and now refuses to give me access to my money, demanding explanation for the refund. Also tried to say it didnt match any transactions, when I CLEARLY have the payment taken out MONTHLY. First I was told I only needed to send a copy of my ID. Then, it changed to I had to prove the refund and send a receipt. This is ILLEGAL & FRAUD! There is no policy that states we as consumers are required to answer to them why we have what money in the account and that they are allowed to lock us out and refuse us access to our money! I am a disabled veteran, that is the ONLY money I have. My cell phone is going to be shut off, I cant buy food for myself or my 2 Service Dogs. I cant get a ride to the VA hospital to change my direct deposit, because I cannot access my own money. This company is committing FRAUD! They should NOT be allowed to stay in business duping more innocent consumers. Please help me to access the account so I can get the only money I have.

    September 2022 I was incarcerated from the 20th to the 29th while I was incarcerated my father's vehicle my wallet with all my cards and identity and my cell phone and my wife's cell phone was stolen. I didn't plan to sell until I was released on the 29th of September I had to borrow money from my father which took a couple days for him to loan me and on October 7th I found out that my October's VA check for $3,322.00 have been stolen out of my account. I immediately contacted card.com notified them of the fraudulent activity. The only thing that was legit was my phone bill being paid because they were using my phone and my wife's phone to access my money through cash app and ATM withdrawals. On October 24th card.com reversed some of the charges and left my wife's cash app account negative $702 and my phone was shut off they credited my account $3,317. And told me their investigation was complete. On November 27th I contacted card.com to find out where my December check was and they told me they finally completed their investigation on November 23rd and there was no air found. I received my in custody letter finally on December 2nd and sent it to card.com initially I gave them the case number that I filed with the police and notified them that I was in jail and no one else was authorized to take money out of my account. Even with all the supporting evidence that supports my claim they refuse to reverse the decision and give me back my money they won't let me talk to corporate or the investigation team and have just been blowing me off. One of the representatives told me I should find the person who stole my money and go after them to get it back. Another told me it was my fault for getting arrested and there was nothing they could do. All the evidence supports my clean and they are still keeping my money. Please help me rectify the situation to get my money back. Thank you

    Please see the attached.

    Sir, I am writing you and responding to your message you sent me on December 21st because of card.com reimburse me the money that was stolen for me in September and then reversing the decision and taking my whole December's check I have fell behind on my bills and I am in danger of losing my rental home also my vehicle because I have fallen behind on my payments on all my bills. I sent card.com proof of my incarceration during the time my money was being taken out of my account I also asked them if my PIN number had been changed because my wallet my phone and my dad's car was stolen due to the police not securing the vehicle or let me get my things out of it when they arrested me. The only person authorized to take out money or do transactions in my account is myself and you can clearly see that I was incarcerated from September 20th until September 29th and they started taking money out on the 26th of September then also the person who I talk to added in number ******** on 8/28/2022 for $4.17 to ****** Play **************** and I didn't file on that one and I also explained to them that the people that were using my phone made a payment to my phone for $92 item ID number ********* which card.com reverse the charges and I had to pay for them again then when they reversed the decision they never paid any of the accounts back like my wife's cash app account is **** and some dollars they never paid that back and they reverse the transaction for my phone which they never gave them the money back either and my cash app account was in the negative also because they reversed the transactions for that also. So in order to access my money through the ATMs or whatever the person had to have changed my PIN number they were using my wife's phone and my phone to make transactions also but at the time my wife was in ******* ***** visiting her sister when I got arrested it wasn't until September 29th that she borrowed the money from her sister to bail me out and to come home. Card.com wouldn't let me speak to corporate or to the investigators they told me I would receive a phone call within four business hours never did and had notified me that they had completed the investigation on the 24th of October and that it was why they credited my account then they turned around and said that they completed the investigation on November 23rd and reversed the decision which I don't understand I am sending an attachment of the same things I sent to them to you in this email I don't know what else to do.

    Ever since I opened up an account with Card.com at the first of the month someone else makes charges UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES to my debit card and so I have to wait 14 days for my new debit card to arrive. I have 5 disputes at hand now & another one for $303 but they refuse to help me reset my password and username. I've sent 5 emails to them in the last 3 weeks asking for a bank statement from and have heard nothing from them. I finally called again yesterday and I ask them why they refuse to help me reset my password and username, I told them I know I changed my username but had forgotten about it and what it was. They still refuse to help. I've lost more money with this bank than I make in a month. I really need someone to help me.
