RE: *** ***
Dear Ms***,
On April 20, 2015, Blackhawk Network, Inc("Blackhawk") received a complaint from *** *** with respect to
unauthorized transfers made from her PayPower Visa Prepaid CardBlackhawk is the program manager for this card on behalf of the issuer, MetaBank
Unfortunately, Ms*** appears to have been the victim of identity theftOn April 4, 2015, someone impersonating Ms*** (a fraudster) called our customer service and requested to have her email address and username changed in order to access her online accountThe fraudster had already stolen Ms***'s identity, so she was able to provide all the information required to authenticate her over the phoneSince the customer service agent was able to properly authenticate the caller, the agent made the requested changes to Ms***'s accountOnce the changes were made, the fraudster was able to access Ms***'s account onlineThe fraudster then made a number of unauthorized transactions
Ms*** correctly states that she had $1,in her account before the fraudster gained accessBefore we closed the account, three recurring payments scheduled in advance by Ms*** were made; these payments totaled $Since these payments were authorized by Ms***, we have deducted them from the $1,733.09, leaving $We have credited one $monthly fee to Ms***'s account, for a total refund of $She should receive a check within days
Because Ms*** was the victim of identity theft, we urge her to file a police report and place fraud alerts on her file with the three major consumer reporting agencies

Dear Ms***,
On September 10, 2015, Blackhawk Network Inc("Blackhawk") received a complaint from *** *** with respect to a
Reloadit PackBlackhawk's affiliate, Blackhawk Network California, Inc., is the issuer of the Reloadit Pack
On August 19, 2015, Mr*** purchased a Reloadit Pack at2:pm (PT) at a supermarket in Salem, Oregon
Unfortunately, Mr*** appears to have been the victim of a cloned siteHe certainly did not go to www.reloadit.com; instead, he went to a site that looked like www.reloadit.com but was not (we have discovered several such sites and continue to contact those sites' hosts to request that the sites be taken down; nevertheless, they keep popping up)We are positive this is the case, because the actual Reloadit site requires every customer to create a safe using their email addressMr*** had previously created a safe on our website, but this Reloadit Pack was never added to itInstead, the Pack was added to someone else's safe (one established by a fraudster) and the funds were loaded to a prepaid card that they controlledIn order for someone to add a Pack to their safe and apply the funds, they need to know the Pack PIN, which is hidden under the "scratch off", and the exact amount associated with the PackWhen Mr*** entered this information on the cloned site, he gave the fraudsters the information they needed to steal his funds
Unfortunately, we cannot provide a refund to Mr*** because he gave the Pack number to a criminalWe suggest that he file a police report regarding this matterIf Mr*** does pursue this matter with law enforcement, then we *** assist them in their efforts to apprehend the perpetrators

Thank you for your explanationIt does not address the impact of this loss to meUnfortunately when I logged into your bookmarked site, your site was downI googled reloadit and received the site to enter the informationWhile this may have been as you say a fraudulent site, it was identical to your siteThe difficulty you continued to experience with "down site" contributed to the confusionOn the day I spoke to your agent on the phone and was advised to file a police report I did in fact do thisThe Polk County Oregon Sheriff Deputy, *** ***, filed a report of my loss of $The case #XX-XXXX is on record for you to investigate the loss of moneyI followed the procedure to purchase and load my account$is a significant loss to me and clearly not to youI expect a satisfactory resolution from you as a loyal customer for over three years

There is no effort of Blackhawk to satisfy customersIf mine was an isolated incident then I could accept this decisionBut there have been many users hurt by such eventsI am sorry that Revdex.com was not able to effect a more positive response from this companyContinuing to recommend them with high rankings is disappointing and clearly not reflexive of real user experiences
Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: The company has not offered any acceptable resolutionThe product they offered (AirBnB gift cards at a 20% discount) is no longer availableI attempted to order the item over a dozen times and my orders never went throughI am seeking fulfillment of my initial order along with a change in the company's policy of denying orders without cause and without explanation.Sincerely,*** ***

On January 19, 2018, *** purchased two $Visa Gift cards. *** contacted us on January 24, to request replacements for these stolen cards. That same day, replacement cards were issued. Cards are sent via USPS and generally take 7-business days to be received. On February 16, 2018, *** contacted us again as she never received the replacement cards. That day, we issued two more replacement cards. Unfortunately, *** did not receive these cards either so replacement cards were issued a third time. We are unsure as to why *** failed to receive any of the replacement cards that were issued, but apologize for the inconvenience that she may have experienced
We have processed a refund for both cards in the amount of $100. This check will be mailed by the end of this week. It generally takes 7-business days for checks to be received via USPS. The checks will arrive in a “postcard” style format. On April 2, 2018, we sent this information to *** with a copy of a sample check so that she knows what to expect. Again, we apologize for any delay or inconvenience that *** may have experienced

Dear Reloadit,
You said "I lost my money because I gave my pack number to a criminal"No sirHow do I know the site I went into is a fake or cloned siteIt was very clear that the site I went into was www.reloadit.com complete with all Reloadit logo
When the "criminal" applied my pack number to his safe, you can trace to what prepaid card the money went into because every prepaid card has to be registered in your system supplying personal information of the prepaid card ownerIf you *** check your record hence you can catch the criminal
You have the obligation therefore to report these anomalies to the police in order that your client *** not lose their hard earned money to criminals
