OpenSky told me by phone in the first week of January that they would send me a replacement credit card because mine was lost or stolen. Today an OpenSky phone rep told me that they have not even sent the card out yet (so it is not even in the mail yet at all). They said they will be sending the card "soon" with no clarification about what "soon" means. This means that OpenSky has my money (it is a "pre-paid card"), but they are not allowing me to use the account because I cannot use the account without the new card being sent to me. It is my understanding that BBB has received similar complaints about OpenSky in 2022 and now in 2023.Business Response

This company has recently indicated a 30 days late on my credit report. The last 4 of my ssn is ****. I have never received any statement whatsoever. Moreover, there was a charge from Apple I disputed on my account and must be removed yet they have never followed up on the dispute charge and left it on my account which makes this inaccurate billing and inaccurate balance reporting on my credit report.Business Response

On January 1, 2023 I opened an OpenSky secured credit card and put down a $200 deposit. I was told my card would arrive in ***** days. It's now been over 3 weeks, so I decided to call customer service. The representative I spoke to stated that my card has not even been produced yet and they'll be getting to the people who ordered one this month at some point. I asked if there's any way I can get a virtual card to use and was told no. I asked if I could get my money back and was told I could but it would take around 8 weeks. I have never been more frustrated over a company. I feel there is only 1 resolution that would work for both parties and that is to give me my card as promised when I paid my deposit.Business Response

I applied for an open sky secured credit card at the beginning of the month. I was approved for the card, and put my deposit of $300.00 down, which cleared. I actually had an issue with it clearing to begin with, not realizing that my debit card has been temporarily blocked by my bank due to possible fraud. I actually called opensky for help wondering why my payment wouldnt process although I had sufficient ****** ****** were very polite and helped in solving my issue; advising me to call my bank and offering other avenues to fund my card. After the payment cleared, the next page congratulated me on my open sky cc approval and notified me that I would receive it in about a week, however underneath it advised me that they didnt know when I would receive my open sky secured **** card that i just put my only $300 on in order to build my credit, (due to having my identity stolen after working for years paying my bills on time and having a steady credit score of 785), because of manufacturing issues. It said that the company that makes their plastic doesnt have enough plastic to manufacture any cards, therefore my money, which may not be a lot to others, but when youre the sole provider of your family and dont have any extra money to even save, that is a lot to me, and ** being told they dont know when or even if I will receive my card. They offered a link to cancel my account but not without saying that it will hurt my credit score exponentially more than it already is, and that if I choose to do that, I might receive a check 4 weeks down the road if not more. This is unethical and if this is the case, should probably inform the consumer ahead of time, that they are doing themselves a major disservice. I would like to know when I will receive my credit card or be refunded my money in a timely manner without damage to my credit!Business Response

I signed up for a secured credit card through OpenSky over a year ago, and have been using it to build credit. I no longer want/need the card, and would like to cancel my account, and get the money back that I put down for a deposit on the card.Unfortunately, I can't get ahold of the business. I have been trying for a couple months, there is always a long hold time when trying to speak to a representative, and then I am hung up on before connecting. I've tried this with multiple phone numbers, in my home, and at work. I have never once even been able to speak to a representative, and they do not have any options for me to close my account online. I need this resolved quickly, I'm feeling like my money is being held hostage, and my only recourse will be to use the card, which then requires me paying it off. I want my deposit back.Business Response

OpenSky has been falsely reporting information to my consumer report. I have sent in several disputes and debt validation letters demanding they show me I am responsible for the account they say I owe they have failed to do upon each request. No permissible purpose was given for such information to be reported, therefore this is identity theft! No proof that this account belongs to me has been brought to me, and no contract bearing two wet signatures between both parties! This is violating my rights under 15 USC **** s-2-Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies 15 USC **** section 602 A-states I have the right to privacy 15 USC ****a Section 2-Definitions; rules of construction/Exclusions 15 USC ****b-Permissible purposes of consumer reports 15 USC ****-Criminal liability for a willful and knowing violation 15 USC ****-Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information 15 USC ****-Protection of nonpublic information 18 USC ****-Identity TheftCustomer Answer
