A message has been left for Mr***We have reviewed his READYdebit cardThere is not any indication that the transactions have been double billedThere is evidence of a hold of a charge until the actual transaction is presented
by the merchant, but we have not double charged his account for any transaction
There is evidence of two declined transactionsOne for a cash transfer at western union which is not allowed until successful identity verification is completed and a personalized card is issuedAnd the other transaction was declined for non-sufficient funds
Mr*** deposited $He had transactions presented from various merchants totaling $He has $in active authorization holds pending presentment by the merchantHe has been charged the $fee that was disclosed and he has a remaining balance of $
We do not find any discrepancy and the fees that have been charged ($to initially purchase the card at the merchant location and the $that applies with the first use) have all been disclosedWe do not find that any money is missing from the card, therefore there is not any money to be returned
A message has been left for Mr***He may return the call at his earliest convenience if he has any additional questionsA copy of his statement has also been requested to be mailed to his address

All of our cards will apply the same hold if gas is purchased at the pumpThe following is located on our website in ''Frequently Asked Questions'':
Why do I have a hold on my account balance after purchasing gas?
If you purchase
gasoline using a credit transaction some gas stations may place a hold on your account for approximately $or more which may limit access to your account balance for up to business days
To avoid such holds, we recommend that you purchase gas using a debit transactionSimply swipe your card at the pump or take your card inside to the cashier and use your card and PIN to pay for the gas using a debit transaction

Dear ***,
Yes, I believe the check they issued me for the $1,balance they had been holding for two months against my wishes has just cleared
I am still going to bring my story to my friend at NBCI was told repeatedly by at least three different Account Now employees that in order for me to have my funds "unfrozen" and available to me that I would have to produce physical receipts of deposits madeI was told that without the receipts, I would not receive my funds
Thanks to the Revdex.com for your help in retrieving funds that were being held hostage by a company who engages in illegal behavior
Have a nice day,
*** ***

Final Business Response /* (4000, 17, 2014/11/04) */
The denial of the claim has nothing to do with the fact that Ms*** did not file a police reportBased on the investigation, we do not find that an error occurredThat is what we explained to Ms***
The facts do not show that anyone other than Ms*** used the card

First of all, they made my account negative $which should have been impossible for a prepaid debit cardThen when they so called put my $back on my card I never saw it because they took it for a negative balance that I never accruedThen that left a negative balance of $On monday may 19, 2014, I got my state taxes which was $and they took $So I never really got any of my money backWhat they did was used my money to cover their mistakeI want my $back
Final Business Response /* (4000, 18, 2014/06/13) */
We have issued credit to the account for the amount of the disputeCredit was issued on 5/9/for the amount of the error claim,plus the associated transaction fee

I am tired of explaining that they took my moneyThey put the money back on my account but they had it negative when it shouldn't have been so I never even seen the moneyHow does a prepaid card become negative? It is suppose to be impossible, that is why people get prepaid debit cards and then if that wasn't enough they took $out of my state taxes that got deposited right after thatIts obvious to see the Revdex.com is not going to do anything so I am not doing business with Accountnow ever again and I am telling everybody I know not to either and I will keep this complaint going

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2014/08/08) */
We have contacted Ms*** and discussed the matter with herWe are continuing to review her experience, but we have confirmed that the virtual card promised for the contest prize has been received

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 6, 2014/10/01) */
The error claim was denied and a letter was mailed to the customerWe have attempted to contact the customer by telephone on several occasions to discuss our findings and our decision
A credit was not issued because we finalized our
investigation prior to the date that provisional credit was due as outlined in the terms and conditions and the results of our investigation determined that we did not find that an error occurred

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
The investigation was not handled the right wayI never got a return call back from anyone nor no one ever requested my supporting documents which I had to fax in several timesI called numerous times almost each day and the cant even me a direct answer support there process and findingsI called again today and was on hold for minutes and then the call dropI want them to credit my account because they have NOT shown me anything nor presented their results, I want my money ACCOUNT NOWIt's not my fault your business does not let customers talk to people your agentsI think yall use that to delay and deny claims because no ones get through to your agents
Final Business Response /* (4000, 10, 2014/10/16) */
There have been three error claims filed by Mr*** since August 26, He is being given credit in full for all the transactions claimed
The investigations were handled appropriately and there is record of several attempts to contact him by telephone, and in fact the investigator spoke to him regarding the initial denied claim
We are exercising our rights to close the account due to the number of error claims and the liability that it presents to us as a company
A check is being processed and will be processed with expected delivery on 10/18/An email is being sent to him with a direct contact number for the Vice President of Risk based on his request to send the telephone number by emailThis email will also provide the total amount of the credits, which will be the amount of the current claim, which has already been credited and is in queue for check processingThe amounts need to be calculated for the prior denied claim and the email will be sent as soon as there is confirmation of the credit amountHe was already granted credit on the initial claim
He may call if he would like to discuss the matter, but we reviewed the claims again and stand by our decision to keep the account closedWe will not allow the account to remain open and as a courtesy we are expediting a check at our expenseTypically this process takes three to fivve weeks based on mail time frames
