The Bancorp Bank Reviews (392)

Review: NYState of Health had MVP Bronze option chosen with a HSA(health savings account) evidently needed. Representative of that insurance say there is no option out of using that bank. They mailed account check books but no welcome packet explaining they were coming. I went to local police, called one of my local banks asking what to do about someone stealing my identity. Only to find out later there was a packet to say that in 5 to 10 days checks would be coming and a debit card. Ouch, that was backwards. With many fees if the account is not used every month, ouch again.Desired Settlement: MVP stops using this bank altogether and uses local NY banks or our own individual choices per state!

Re: Revdex.com Case ID [redacted] – Health Savings Account (HSA)

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the Revdex.com regarding your Health Savings Account (HSA) at the Bancorp Bank. We have reviewed the complaint and our findings are summarized below.

As indicated in your complaint, the Bank did establish a Health Savings Account on your behalf on December 24, 2013. This account was established as a result of information that was passed along to us per an ongoing relationship we have with multiple business entities through our Alegeus/Wealthcare solutions platform. In this case the staff at MVP incorrectly identified that you should be referred to us for an HSA even though you were applying for a health insurance plan through the New York public insurance exchange set up in conjunction with the Affordable Care Act. In this case a standard referral generated the normal HSA enrollment and fulfillment process at the Bank.

Our contacts at MVP have acknowledged the oversight that caused this account to be opened in error for you, [redacted]. MVP has confirmed that they caught this issue very early in the process after the public exchange began processing applications. They have suspended the auto enrollments and they are actively coordinating efforts to close the accounts that were opened in error. This includes a formal communication to the impacted customers advising them that their accounts were opened in error and that they will be closed.

[redacted], we apologize for any inconvenience that this matter may have caused you. We have taken prompt and decisive action to resolve this matter with as little impact as possible to you. We are glad that we were able to fully resolve your concern.

We trust the information provided above will address this matter. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Review: The Bancorp Bank has two of my personal MyVanilla Prepaid Debit cards (#1 ending in [redacted] and #2 ending in [redacted]) on hold; I am unable to access my funds. The card ending in [redacted] has a balance of $4,496.62 and the card ending in [redacted] has a balance of $7.37. The Bancorp request that I submit proof of identity (DL, SS card, proof of address, etc). Proof of identity was emailed to the company on Wed, Nov 20, 2013 at 11:39 AM; at that time, the customer service representative provided a 3-5 business day window for the compliance team to review the submitted documentation and provide further guidance. As of today 04 Dec 2013, no progress has been made and my funds are still on hold.Desired Settlement: Please unlock my account and / or return all funds.

RE: Your MyVanilla Visa Prepaid Card

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the FDIC regarding your MyVanilla Visa Prepaid Card. We have reviewed your complaint and have determined the following.

[redacted] your account was blocked on November 5, 2013 due to activity that was considered suspicious. There were multiple loads for $500 and then immediate withdrawals on the account. This is considered misuse of the financial card.

On November 22, 2013 the requested verification documents were received and on November 25, 2013 the InComm Fraud team removed the block from the card. Two loads were then immediately completed, and on November 26, 2013 the card was once again blocked for the same activity that was previously done on the card.

Both of your MyVanilla accounts have been put into a spend down status. No new loads will be allowed on to the cards. Purchases can still be made on the cards until the remaining available balances are $0.00, or you can request a refund check for the remainder of the balances.

We regret any inconvenience you have experienced due to the account review and subsequent actions taken on your accounts, [redacted] We take our duty to protect our customers very seriously. In this case utilizing the spend down status is part of our overall approach to ensure the overall safety and soundness of our customer network.

We hope that this information is helpful. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Sincerely,

The Bancorp Bank

Review: I do not have an account with this company but continue to receive text messages to my phone stating charges. I contacted the company by phone with the number I found on their website and was told my phone number would no longer receive these messages. After 2 more weeks of more text messages I again contacted the company by phone and was told there was no way to trace the account through a phone number. I was told to text back the word STOP and I would no longer receive the messages. However, when I enter the word STOP I get a message saying I may be charged for this text!I cancelled my text as I do not want to be charged and I would like these messages stopped along with any affiliation with this company. I find it hard to believe they can't find the account through the phone number since they are contacting me with charge notices through the phone number.

Review: Uhaul put a hold of $113.22 on 8-1-15 for a truck rental & they released it 8-3- as I was standing there upon bringing the truck back. checked my My Vanilla card later & didn't have it on my card yet. I gave it a couple of days & on 8-5-15 I called them & they told me I had to have a merchant's lien release faxed to them & they couldn't tell me why they didn't tell me that before now. So I called [redacted] & got them to send it while I was on my he phone on 8-5-15. My Vanilla mgr. said it would take no more than 24 hours to get the money put back on my card but there was a lot of managers on the floor so it should be done right away & I then verified that the release was received. 24 hours later & still no money. The next person told me it would be another 24 hours. It's another 24 hours & I still don't have it back and I am still getting the run around & different stories so I'm filing a complaint because I still do not have the money back after I did everything they asked me to.

Review: I used My "Approved Card" through The Bancorp Bank to pay for a hotel room in Kentucky. As expected, Bancorp Bank did charge me a holding fee for my room, but I was very confused when I was charged again for my room and the holding fee when I checked out the next morning. This double charge was a total of $104.73. Which isn't much, but it is still my hard earned money. I called customer service immediately to inquire about the charge. I was told It was the holding fee until the hotel settled the charge. which didn't make sense because My holding fee was included in the total when I checked into the room. The representative was unable to provide me with a valid reason as to why I was double charged by The Bancorp Bank other than it being a holding fee. I was also told I wouldn't get that holding fee back for 30 DAYS even after the Hotel settled the charge. This situation has left me stranded in another state with my son and I am incapable of financially getting myself back to Michigan.Desired Settlement: I simply would like to receive the money back that I am being double charged.

RE: The Approved Prepaid MasterCard

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the Revdex.com regarding your The Approved Prepaid MasterCard. We have reviewed your complaint and our findings are summarized below.

On January 27, 2014 there were two authorizations made on your account by the merchant Sleep Inn located in Lexington, KY.

You called into Customer Service and spoke with a phone representative to inquire about the extra pre-authorization on the card and how to get it released. The representative informed you that they needed to have the merchant fax over the information stating that they would not be charging the card for both authorizations.

On January 29, 2014 the merchant settled one transaction, but the extra pre-authorization was still on the card as the required documents had not yet been received from the merchant. A phone representative called you and a three way call with the merchant was completed. The merchant stated that the fax may not have gone through since they did not get any confirmation on their end. The merchant was asked to send the fax again.

The fax was received and the funds were released back on to the card after proper verification by the Fraud Team.

We regret any inconvenience you’ve experienced related to the pre-authorizations. Although in this instance it proved to be frustrating for you, this process is in place in part in order to help the customers avoid the inconvenience of creating a negative balance on their accounts. Before we can release an authorization we need the merchant to provide proper documents confirming that they will not be submitting that transaction for payment.

We hope that this information is helpful. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Review: On October 2, 2013, I made a debit transaction with the merchant GTL aka Global Tel Link for the amount of $25.00. This is merchant GTL provides phone service for inmates. I was later informed that I would not be needing the merchant's service, therefore; I requested a refund from the merchant GTL. I was refused a refund by the representative. So on

October 19, 2013, I contacted Rushcard Prepaid Services to inquire about a dispute because I was having issues with a merchant. I was asked several questions about the this transaction and I was advised by Rushcard that the process for handling a dispute would take 30-90 days. I advised the representative at Rushcard that I did not want to peruse this dispute because 30-90 days was to long to wait for a $25.00 refund. I advised this representative that I would contact the merchant and try to resolve this is with them. I contacted GTL on October 21, 2013, and I agreed to a $21.49 refund, however; I was also advised by GTL that their refund process was from 30-60 days. I agreed to wait. On November 14, 2013, The Bancorp contact the merchant and informed them (GTL) that there was a dispute. On December 5, 2013, Rushcard/The Bancorp took $25.00 from my GTL account WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. MY ACCOUNT IS NOW IN THE NEGATIVE WITH GTL AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE $25.00 BACK TO MY RUSHCARD ACCOUNT. NEITHER OF THE THREE COMPANIES CAN TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO THE $25.00.

I WAS ADVISED THERE ARE SIGNED DISPUTE FORMS WITH MY SIGNATURE . I DID NOT AUTHORIZED THE BANCORP OR RUSHCARD TO PROCEED WITH THE DISPUTE, NOR DID I SIGN ANY FORMS REGARDING THIS DISPUTE.Desired Settlement: I WOULD LIKE MY $25.00 TO BE PLACED BACK ON MY RUSHCARD.

RE: Your RushCard Visa Prepaid Card

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the FDIC and Revdex.com regarding your RushCard Visa Prepaid Card. We have reviewed your complaint and have determined the following.

[redacted] we have spoken directly with the merchant, GTL, and they confirmed that they took the $25.00 out of your account when they received the chargeback from Bancorp. Since Bancorp accepted their representment, the merchant initiated a refund on December 5, 2013. They informed us that the refund can take 7-10 business days to process. Since we are past 10 business days, the merchant is escalating the refund request.

On December 20, 2013, one of our Fraud Analysts contacted you to explain what had happened and that the merchant will be refunding the $25.00.

We regret any inconvenience you’ve experienced related to this error claim, and we’re glad that we were able to help resolve this matter in your favor.

We hope that this information is helpful. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Review: The tax form (5498) for 2013 taxes regarding total distributions was just mailed out and received on May 23, 2014.Desired Settlement: I would like to know why required tax forms were not sent out by the end of January as per tax requirements ?

How do I report this to the IRS ?

Business

Response:

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the Revdex.com regarding your My Smart Saver Health Savings Account. You expressed concern that you only recently received your Form 5498-SA from the Bank. We have reviewed the complaint and our findings are summarized below.

Each year, the Bank is required to produce two tax-related forms for HSA customers: Form 5498-SA that you just recently received and Form 1099-SA. We complied fully with the specific timeframes required by the IRS. Form 5498 reports all contributions into your HSA for the prior tax year. Per current regulations this form must be mailed annually to each HSA customer by May 31st for the prior tax year. HSA custodians are required to wait and send this form in May. Keep in mind that individuals may continue to contribute prior-year contributions into a health savings account right up until the April tax filing deadline. Therefore, financial institutions cannot possibly send the form any earlier without the risk of missing potential contributions. All account holders receive this form in May and it is simply used for record-keeping and reporting to the IRS. It is not a required form for filing your taxes.

Form 1099-SA is mailed annually to all HSA customers by January 31st. This form reports all distributions from the HSA for the prior tax year. This form would not be mailed if there were no distributions from the account in the prior year. Please note that per IRS guidelines and banking regulations we provide copies of these forms to the IRS.

Strictly speaking, you are not required to attach physical copies of either of these forms when you file your taxes. Contribution and distribution totals that you need when filing your tax returns are housed on your online banking account. You can also easily obtain the information by calling our 24/7 customer service toll-free number. In addition, our website contains updated tax-related information which includes details about when customers can expect to receive these tax reports.

Please view [redacted] and select “HSA Resources.” From there, you will find valuable information you can use for future reference.

I hope this letter explains the timing of the reports and how we furnish you with copies according to the current reporting guidelines so you may have them for your records. If you did not receive your form 1099-SA please contact Customer Service at [redacted]n order to request an additional copy.

We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. We trust the information provided above addresses this matter. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Review: The Bancorp Bank has denied my claim for unauthorized fraudulent ATM withdrawals/transactions totaling approximately $3,200.00. Their explanation for denying my claim and/or dispute was because the transactions occurred straight up the coast of Homestead, Florida where I used to live, to an unknown area to me and my family named Melbourne, Florida which is approximately 3.5 hours away from Homestead, Florida. The Bancorp Bank and Netspend cited a few other ridiculous readons for denying my such as the fact that my son previously had an account with Netspend/Bancorp and filed a dispute for unauthorized transactions in 2014, which was honored in his favor. Bancorp not only has breached our contractual agreement but they are in violation of the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (REG E). The reference number and card number are as follows:Desired Settlement: I would like The Bancorp Bank to reimburse me the approximate $3,200.00 that was stolen from my account. If the Bank did their due diligence, they would see through the surveillance video that neither my son or I authorized these fraudulent ATM withdrawals. Unfortunstely, if Bancorp is not willing to reimburse me the money, I will be filing a separate small claims lawsuit and Federal Lawsuit against them in Lee County, Florida to recover my money. By retaining my money, they are being unjustly enriched and thmus in violation of contract and law. I would like The Bancorp Bank to email me at [redacted] to amicably resolve this matter once and for all. Reference [redacted] and the last 4 digits of the card # 3789.

Review: I loaded 320$ on to my Ready Debit Platinum Visa card issued by Bancorp on 1/4/15 when I went to use my card it was not working so I called customer service and explained to the agent how important it was for me to make that card work since earlier that day my purse had been stolen. I guess the agent took it as I was trying to report my card stolen. When I found out my card was still not working I called back and was told my account was locked down and I would need to verify my identity, I have sent copies of my ID, birth certificate, utility bill, photos of both non-working cards that I have, copies of my W2, and even my last year's tax return and still I am unable to access my money we have been working with this for over a month... And now I am being charged a monthly fee for a card I DON'T EVEN WANT! THE ONLY THING I WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE WAS A SIGNED COPY OF MY SOCIAL SECURITY CARD WITH WAS IN MY WALLET WHEN IT WAS STOLEN. I filed for a new one but that takes 6-8weeks... Is there any other way to get my money to me? I work for [redacted] I can fly somewhere to identify myself in person. I appreciate your help with this matter Thank you [redacted]Desired Settlement: I would like to get the 320$ I originally loaded onto my card back asap. I was told that of the situation gets resolved I would still be waiting 7-10 business days for a check or a card in the mail. Unacceptable.. I would like to transfer funds directly to my new account

Business

Response:

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the Revdex.com regarding your READYdebit Platinum Visa Prepaid Card.

Our research shows the phone agent concluded you had lost your card and required a new one. The request for verification documents was driven because of an address change.

AccountNow, the program manager, received valid copies of your identification card and birth certificate. The other documents submitted were considered invalid: the bill you provided showed [redacted] Street with a portion of the street number cut off, while the W2 form showed W [redacted] Street and only a partial street number.

On February 5, 2015, you spoke with a manager and it was established that while you lost your purse you still had your card. The manager reinstated the card that day.

On February 6, you began using your card again. On February 12, as a courtesy, the $14.95 service charge that posted to your account on January 26 was reversed.

On Tuesday, September 2, 2014, a security block was placed on your account by NetSpend, the program manager, after your card number was believed to have been potentially compromised. The block was intended to prevent any financial loss from your account.

On September 4, a new card was mailed to you via overnight mail. You were not charged any fees for having the card sent to you via expedited delivery.

We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. Please be assured this action was taken in order to maintain the security of your account by reducing your risk to potential fraud.

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

I would like like to add that the company should probably notify their customers of potential frauds before shutting the card down. Yes, it was overnight delivery sent Thursday received Monday that is not overnight delivery and I should not pay a fee for that! Actually for this inconvenience I should have my monthly fee waived! I understand you were protecting me, however to completely shut me off from my money with warning is pretty bad.

Review: The consumer sent $750 via Western Union to receive a prepaid debit card. She later sent around $740 via Western Union to Univison. To send the money she needed to show the card she rec'd from Univison (mastercard) as well as photo ID. The consumer has never been able to activate the card. When the consumer calls the company they tell her that she has not provided adequate verification to use the card so they will not unlock it. When the consumer asks them to close the account, they tell her they cannot do so without the verification. The only way they are willing to unlock the account is with a bill, banking statement, or something from school. The consumer has provided them with something from her school but was told it was not good enough. The consumer says she sent the business information about her student loans. The company tells her there is no phone number for the verification department. The consumer has been told that the card will be unlocked within 72 hours but that was on 8/4/14.Desired Settlement: The consumer would like the company to give her the money back. She no longer has interest in doing business with them. The consumer feels the company should not let people add money to the card without proper verification. She does not feel it is fair she could add money before she had been verified.

On June 19, 2014 your card was blocked for security reasons. You were asked to provide valid copies of your photo ID, Social Security card and proof of address.

Your account has been closed and a refund check in the amount of $1480.10 (the remaining account balance) will be sent to you at no cost once a valid proof of address document is received. We ask that you please provide a utility bill, medical bill or a paystub that is dated within the past 30 days. Please ensure that you send the entire document containing all the required information.

Review: 6 Months ago I applied for the card, this is a pre paid card where you have to make deposits in order to use it as a credit card of Master Card.I used it one time taking $500.00 out. The next day I tried to get some more money out and the card was blocked. I called the company to ask what was the problem that the card had money in it and it was blocked. They told me that they didn't know. I asked what do I need to do to dis-blocked my account and to be able to use the card, and get all my money out. They told me I needed to give them a lot of information; I

faxed them 18 pages of information about myself, since 3 days went by and not hear nothing from the company, I called them, to just tell me that the faxed came to light, that they couldn't see nothing, and they asked me to fax it again, and so I did. I have call 6 more times, I have talked to supervisors and nothing has been done.Desired Settlement: I want all my money left in my account and I want to closed the account.[redacted]

RE: Your Univision MasterCard Prepaid Card

This letter is in response to the concern you raised with the Revdex.com regarding your Univision MasterCard Prepaid Card. We have reviewed your complaint and our findings are summarized below.

On February 25, 2014, the account received a tax refund deposit from the IRS in the amount of $1288.00. For security reasons the card was blocked by Univision, the program manager, on March 27. The following day you were informed by a phone agent that the card would remain blocked until you provided valid copies of your photo ID, the first two pages of your tax return, proof of address and Social Security card. When you informed the agent you did not have a Social Security card you were advised to provide two forms of photo ID.

On March 31, Univision received copies of your photo ID, birth certificate and tax identification number; however, they were illegible so you were asked to resend the documents.

On May 5, Univision reviewed the additional verification documents you submitted which included a copy of your photo ID, the proof of address document(s), and your 2013 Tax Form 1040. The tax return was validated but the proof of address was not accepted and a clearer copy of your photo ID was requested. You were informed by the phone agent on May 6 that you needed to resend a copy of your photo ID in color along with the proof of address that matched the address on file. You were also advised that the proof of address documents needed to be from within the past 30 days.

A review of your account shows no further communication with Univision since May 6, and no additional documents have been received.

Bancorp reviewed the verification documents that you sent and agrees that additional documents were needed. While you provided two forms of ID they were both foreign-issued and the image quality was very poor. In addition, acceptable proof of address documents (matching the account) were not provided.

Your account has been closed per your request. We have submitted a request to the IRS to allow us to send the remaining funds to them. This is done when the remaining funds on the account are from a tax refund. If the IRS accepts the funds they can issue you a refund check. If they do not accept the returned funds then the funds will remain on the now closed account until you provide valid copies of all the requested identity documents. At that point the account will be reopened.

We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. Pursuant to our obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act, including the USA PATRIOT Act’s Customer Identification Program (“CIP”) requirements, we have put reasonable and prudent identity verification steps in place in order to prevent financial crimes, minimize fraud and protect our customers. We understand that from the customer’s perspective there may be a perceived conflict between our regulatory obligations to protect the account, and the service experience the customer expects. Our actions are undertaken with the goal of striking the best possible balance between the two.

We hope this information is helpful. Please contact us with any additional questions.

Review: I would like the unused balance of $3312.46 in my T-mobile visa prepaid card(which is issued by the Bancorp Bank and serviced by [redacted] network) to be refunded to me via a check.

I have been a T-mobile Visa prepaid card customer since Feb,2015. The card was issued by Bancorp Bank,Delaware and serviced by [redacted] Network, California, Inc.

On July 6th 2015, I called customer service to request to close my T-mobile Visa prepaid card and get a refund for the remaining balance. I spoke to [redacted] in the risk management department, he asked me to send the following documents via email to [redacted]:

photo of front and back of my T-mobile visa prepaid card;

photo of my Driver's license;

photo of my social security card;

photo of a recent utility bill showing my name and address;

photo of me holding my driver's license (similar to a mug shot).

I complied to his request and send the documents via email. Later Danial called me again and quested further documents, including the store receipts for the last two Reloadit packs I used to add funds to my account. I could not provide these documents because I threw them away after using the Reloadit packs. [redacted] said he could not issue me the refund without the documents.

Per the cardholder agreement,

'In the event that your Card Account is cancelled, closed, or terminated for any reason and you have registered your Card with your personal information, you may request the unused balance to be returned to you via a check to the mailing address we have in our records. There is a fee for this service. See the fee schedule above. We reserve the right to refuse to return an unused balance if the balance is less than the fee for sending a check.'

They already have enough information to verify my identity. Nowhere in the cardholder agreement did it say that the consumer need to keep all the used Reloadit packs for verification. In fact they are assuming the money in my account is illegal and ask me to prove it is legal, which is in contrary to one of the most basic legal principles "innocent until proven guilty".

Again I have provided enough documentation to establish my identity. I would like my money refunded to me.Desired Settlement: I would like the unused balance of $3312.46 in my T-mobile visa prepaid card(which is serviced by [redacted] network) to be refunded to me via a check.

Review: I made multiple calls to this company due to a deposit missing from my account, three different people told me three different stories about my deposit and where it was. When I was told a supervisor was available for me they placed me on hold with a "supervisor" then I was disconnected and had to call back. The next person I spoke with then told me there was no supervisor that worked there.Desired Settlement: I need to know where my money is and why they have customer service reps working there that have no idea what the job is and where the information is coming from. I would like Elaine and Hubert fired. These calls were made at 1:15 pm, on aug. 31 2013 and 12:38 pm on aug. 31, 2013. I need compesated for the time and money missing for these days as well.

Review: Bancorp refuses to refund unauthorized transaction on credit card. I did not authorize a charge and they have refused to give my credit.On May 23, 2013, Someone at [redacted] charged my card 335.66. I did not authorize the charge and the company refused to refund the charge on my card. I called the police and reported the incident and received a police report [redacted] I called Rushcard (Bancorp) and started my dispute. I was told that it would take 90 days to complete. I contacted Rushcard on 07/28/2013 only to find out the dispute had not been started. Very upset I started the process again. Today on 07/30/2013 - I contacted Bancorp and spoke to a representative who stated that the dispute was closed. I did not authorize those charges and want my money back. I should be protected from charges like these and shady and unfair business practices of businesses. Bancorp did not protect me as their customer. No other credit card company mistrusts their customers. I am very upset and want a resolution. My account number was [redacted] before they cancelled the card now it is [redacted]Desired Settlement: Please refund or credit my account the unauthorized amount of 335.66

Review: The Bancorp allowed for a [redacted] Visa Prepaid card to be issued without proper identification. The card was issued in my name, but issued to someone else. I did not request the issuance of said card. The card was received by forwarded mail the week of April 6. It had been sent to my old address. I contacted the company on the card (should be The Bancorp Bank) on April 14. The customer service rep said that the card had originally been procured on March 25 in California and registered on March 30th. I did neither of these things.Desired Settlement: The Bancorp should investigate the issue to be sure that the issued card was not used to harm my credit or to defraud me further in any way. Further, The Bancorp should pay for the credit monitoring service of my choice for a period of three years.
