Review: I receive a direct depost of [redacted] from social security into my direct express card on the 3rd of every month. I attempted to withdraw my rent amount and was told to contact my financial institution. the transaction could not be completed. I contacted direct express customer service. I was told there was suspicious activity and my account was restricted. I asked about the activity and was told they had no information on it...hmm. so I was told to go to a bank...that accept's prepay [redacted]card and withdraw the money that way. this is fine...but...remember the 4th of july holiday...all banks closed. now....my rental company has issued a [redacted] late fee and they needed a letter stating my account had been restricted...that's it and they would remove the late fee. I called direct express customer service. explained what I needed and was told they do not send letter's or make phone calls. now I am out [redacted] for something I had no control or knowledge of.Desired Settlement: a letter from direct express regarding the restriction and prior notifications of such.

Review: Direct Express was notified on 1 APRIL 2013 that an unauthorized charge was made on my debit card providing my SSI funds that sustain my living. I was told to wait three days and call back. I did so. I called back and again no help in getting my funds. I was told to go ahead and cancel the card and a new one would be sent free of charge within 5-10 days. I called back on the 15th and was told it was late but sent. Today I was first told that it was never reported and requested for replacement. Then I was told I would have it wait for a new card to be sent, 5-10 days. OR they could send it express. I protested and asked for a supervisor to talk with me or call me and that I did not want to pay 13.50 for their mistake. After waiting 5 hours I called back and got someone else who told me there was a record and they had not sent the first replacement by mistake and that I had been charged for the second card express 13.50.

I finally talked with a supervisor and after explaining the whole thing twice [redacted] told me that I not be refunded the 13.50, the whole thing was my fault and that if I just trusted them I would have the card within 5 days regular mail, and definitely by the 26th.

Right I am supposed to just trust the same company that completely lost the order the first time, and screwed it up the second time. I asked nicely to just refund my 13.50 and forget the whole thing. The other company refunded the improper charge and apologized after 5 days. The card is a debit not a charge card. A declined or unauthorized charge should die not hang out and wait for funds to appear.Desired Settlement: That 13.50 will be placed back on my card and we will have a relationship of mutual benefit and trust. And I won't have to drop their services and file with the [redacted]

Thank you.

Review: My mother [redacted] contacted direct express to discuss a concern regarding her social security payment an the csr was very rude an was not helpful to her request to speak with a supervisor. I tried calling back personally to file a complaint an was hung up on each time. The customer service my mother received was absolutely unexceptable, an someone needs to be notified an a manager/supervisor needs to listen to the phone call which was recorded per the message on there automated system.Desired Settlement: I would like someone to call an apologize to my mother an myself.

Review: I was traveling to Florida on 01/17/2015 with family. When I arrived in Florida, I went to the ATM to withdraw some money, when the transaction was denied I left the ATM and when I got to where we were staying I went on line to the Direct Express website to look at my account and I noticed 3 fraud charges from [redacted] on my account. These 3 charges were all done on the same day and within minutes of each other. I DID NOT authorize nor did I make these transactions. I was in Florida at the time these transactions were made, also the TARGET stores where the charges occured was in NY and I was in Florida at that time. I called Direct Express the minute I saw these charges on my account, they proceeded to cancel my card and Issue me a new one. Then they told me once I got my new card to call and activate it and then I could file a fraud charge compliant. I received my card within a few days, then called them and proceeded to tell them my story, they took my info and said they would mail me some forms that need to be filed out and returned to them so they can begin their investigation. I never received the paperwork they said they were mailing so I called back and told them that, they said they would re send the paperwork and I would get it within 3 to 5 business days. Well a week passed and still no paperwork, I called then for a 3rd time and told them I still had no paperwork, again they said they would re send the paperwork to my address. A week later I finally received the forms and filled them out and also enclosed proof of my travel plans to show that I was out of the state at the time the charges took place. These people have no regard or concern for my money. I would also like to point out that I am on disability and that these funds were part of my disability payment for the month of January, and that these transactions left me with no money in my account. I told this to Direct Express and they did not seem to show any concern. They told me that it would take anywhere from 45 to 90 days to investigate the charges. I don't understand how they can get away with such disreguard for people and their situations. Because of these charges leaving me with no money for the month, I had to borrow from relatives to pay my rent and bills for the month. This is MY money that I am entitled to by the STATE, I don't understand why they are not faster in their process. I am hoping the the Revdex.com can help me in any way possible to help me get MY own money back. The total of the 3 charges was $1298.31, as you can see this is a large amount and my monthly living.Desired Settlement: I would like MY money credited back to my card/account so that I can pay my bills and others that I owe for my months expenses that I had to borrow to pay being my account was compromised.

Review: Hello. Today I am writing about the Comerica Bank's subsidary, Direct Express. Before I get to the point, please know that my Father died when I was 17 years old and I presently receive his lone SSDI benefit as a dependant.

--

So now what happened to me is that, since early December, in 2014, I've been staying in Manassas, Virginia where my Mom lives, and had not been around my home in New Jersey. On Jan. 2, 2015, my Debit Card had gotten fraudulently used at an ATM in New Jersey while I had been in Virginia. Direct Express received my investigation report, and copies of [redacted] train tickets, in other words, valid receipts showing that it is impossible that I could be in New Jersey around Jan. 2nd.

--

Direct Express purposely had not uploaded my letter to thier computers until Jan. 23rd. It is an action that is inconsistent with the fact that I had mailed this letter on Jan. 13th and so the company must have received it much earlier than Jan. 23rd, and thusly I could have gotten a promotional credit. But they insist that it was received through the mail 11 days after the Post Office sent it. They are certainly not being honest.

--

I could not have my promotional credit due to thier practices. Also I reached out in two ways numerous times in order to talk to the fraud investigator and as of Jan. 30th, 25 days, almost three weeks after it happened, he or she refuses to contact me via telephone. I tried A) requesting that in my letter; and B) requesting that in the fax; and C) calling for much of the week, whereby I was told they inputted the request into my file. All of these efforts have received not a single official responce. --

What am I suppose to do about my medical deductable if people cannot help me find the criminals that did this, huh? I told Direct Express about my Police Report and to contact the Detective named in my letter, and I put the important phone numbers in there. I am scared, my Landlord is mad at me now and I keep telling him, please wait for my bank's response, but where us everybody?

--

I still cannot go to my Doctor, Mr. [redacted] for my disease because there is no way for me to get my money back and I have only like, five family members left that are alive. I am isolated and I cannot figure out what to do now. As of today's filing of this letter it is around 30 days.

--

Before January, you can see my transaction history of my debit card is in the State of Virginia. Now you've got my [redacted] train tickets from December and January showing where I am. How much more do you need to kindly take me seriously? I am hopeless. I think next I need to write to the appropriate Commitee in Congress that oversees this contract with Comerica Bank because I think they will listen or communicate with me at least.

--

Also if anybody from Direct Express has the audacity to ridicule my credibility, I would have to tell you to listen to my official audio recording with Direct Express that describes all of my claims here as real and valid. And you may find this call log recording at [redacted] --

My Mom, my Sister, my brother, my sister's friend at the police department, the detective, myself, and my other bank, are ready and have been ready since the beginning of this month to vouch for me on my behalf and I am still waiting for Direct Express to execute my claim forward.

Good day.Desired Settlement: Important info: Last four of SSN: [redacted]. Last four of card No.: [redacted].

Response:

Ok I guess I will be more patient and I hope the first one is addressed.

Regards,

Review: Within a fifteen minute time span, somebody used my Direct Express card information 6 times at the same location to drain my account of $570 (I still have, and have never lost, possession of my card); within the last 15 seconds of said time span, my card information was used 3 times to deduct the remaining $300 from my account. I had seen the discrepancy as the charges were pending and had contacted U.S. Direct express to freeze my account. However, I was told that they could not freeze my account because "how could they know if it was me or not." They then proceeded to tell my that they can not do anything about it until the charges had cleared. The people were very rude and would not provide the reference number for the phone recording, a call center ID number, employee ID numbers, supervisor ID numbers, or would not let me speak to any authority personnel. I had Filed two separate police reports; one in my county, and the other in which the card information was used. The police acquired the video surveillance at the Target store in which it was used and witnessed a person of another race using my card information. I say card information, assuming that my information was compromised some how, and a duplicate card was used. Upon telling the above information to Direct Express, I was informed that their investigation can take up to 90 days. I am about to get things turned off now due to non payment. Why will it take ninety days when the case is solved for them.Desired Settlement: I really just want my $570 back. And, as you may or may not know, Direct Express processes Department of Treasury payments, comprising of veterans including disabled veterans. Has our military sacrifices and suffering not warranted the security of our measly compensation for accumulated years spent in a war zone defending this great nation? That being said, another desired outcome is just for my fellow war fighting brothers to not have to deal with ignorant, condescending, uneducated, under-informed, customer service representatives, while trying to reacquire their hard fought for funds.

Review: [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because: I caught the fraudulent charges while they were still pending. Upon calling Direct Express, I was talked to with condescending, patronizing tones, and with complete ignorance regarding the subject of the fraudulent charges, the proper process for handling said subject, nor was given the names of any bosses or allowed to speak with them. I was told by multiple Direct Express employees that I could not prove it was not me who used my card, so they could not freeze the pending charges. This is not only unethical but unconstitutional; "Ei incumbit probatio qui dicit, non qui negat" meaning, the burden of proof is on he who declares, not on he who denies. Furthermore, I have made police reports (attached), and the police pulled the surveillance footage of a man of another race using my card six times in fifteen minutes at a Target store. I was told by Direct Express employees that the card had a suspicious activity monitor feature, yet, my card was used extremely frequently at the same location and the last three times it was used were within a fifteen second time span. When I asked Direct Express why that did not seem suspicious, they told me that it had to be a "mom and pop" store because Target is a trusted retailer. Also, whenever talking to Direct Express employees, I asked for the telephone recording reference number of the conversation, but was denied every time. I was either told, they do not have access to it, they do not record calls (which is a lie because the phone prompt warns of such activity), or blatantly told no. It has been three weeks already, and I am told it will take 90 days. I have all the proof of my innocence, so why should I have to wait for the money I earned after it was stolen?

Review: I was aware there was a problem with my Indiana EPPICARD account on December 20, 2013 after a declined transaction at a gas station.

Immediately I called EPPICARD and spoke with a representative who informed me my account had been suspended/cancelled because of a suspicious international transaction in Great Britain.

The amounts were $ 49.01 ATM cash withdrawal. And, $1.50 International ATM withdrawal Fee. Dated December 8, 2013.

After answering some account security questions regarding my card usage, I was informed by the representative that a fraud dispute would be opened. I was also told I would be receiving paperwork in the mail regarding my claim that I needed to fill out and return.

I had to call EPPICARD twice to receive the paperwork needed to process my fraud claim.

I am very concerned about this matter being resolved after seeing several EPPICARD customers having had very similar issues with no favorable outcome.

As of January 26, 2014 I still have not heard from EPPICARD.Desired Settlement: I am not asking for anymore that what rightfully belongs to me. I want this money refunded to my account.

This money is Child Support and belongs to my Child, Not a THIEF in Great Britain.

It is very Obvious that EPPICARD saw that the transaction was Fraudulent. If not, why suspend the account?

Also most card companies would have contacted the customer to make them aware of suspicious account activity. EPPICARD did not.

I have retained copies of my account statement showing in detail the fraudulent charges as evidence.

I intend to pursue this issue to the fullest of my capability. Even if this means contacting my States Attorney General.

I hope that contacting EPPICARD is enough to settle the matter.

Review: not informed that card was part of target breech. telephoned on Jan 23, 2014 and informed by agent ofvsuch. I requested to have my new card sent express to me. because of their lack of vommunication, my rent check was going to be returned from the back unpaid. as well as other items that were set up on suto pay that would not be paid. they did not seem to care. I called again on Feb _3 _because I did not receive the card yet. I was informed that the card was sent regular mail. I was also told that if I d not receive card by Feb 4 that they could transfer the funds to my bank account for me. I didn't get the card again. they then told me that they could not do the transfer for me.

Review: Charges were made on April 9, 2013, for $139.74. I contacted Direct Express in sufdficient time for them to stop fraudulant charges, they still allowed charges to go through, saying there were two charges for the same amount, to the same company. My printout of my tranactions show only one charge or $139.74 on April 9, 2013. This charge was not cancelled as my first printout shwos it as a cash pending charge, after my report of fraud, it shows it as a [redacted] purchase. The same time I reported this fraud, I also cancelled my card, they told me they would freeze that pictulaqr numeber. Now I get a runaround and I'm out $139.74Desired Settlement: They should refund my money ASAP, because I reported the fraud in time to stop the charge.

Response:

Revdex.com,

I have been advised by Direct Express that Mr. [redacted] opened a dispute in the amount of $139.74 on April 15, 2013. On April 9, 2013 Mr. [redacted] was issued a replacement card. This card is currently in a registered status. All replacement cards sent to cardholder's contain a new card number, expiration date, and CVC code.

The completed investigation form or handwritten documents received from the cardholder are necessary for review of the claim. To date, neither has been received from Mr. [redacted] regarding his claim. Thus, the service request is currently pending. The 10th business day is April 29, 2013 with a 45th open day of May 30, 2013. It is imperative that Mr. [redacted] return the required documents or his claim cannot be investigated and will be declined. Mr. [redacted] may contact Direct Express at ###-###-#### to discuss any concerns that he may have.

Thank you for the opportunity to review and respond to this matter.

Review: On May 12, 2015 after attempting to make a retail purchase, my card was declined. Thinking that it was a mistake, I asked the clerk to retry, again declined. I felt due to using my card a lot in the last few days, perhaps there was a suspicious activity hold on my account. To my amazement, I found out that I had $0 on my card, after $819.xx charges occurred during 5 transactions at 2 separate Walmarts, as had been informed by Direct express CSR. I was stunned and livid as I had not allowed my card or pin to be compromised at all; my card was in my possession all along.

After my verbal report/notification of the matter the second I became aware, I assumed that a credit would be applied in a reasonably considerate manner. DE said I needed to complete a form outlying the very same info that I provided by phone call to the fraud department. I felt like this was redundant and extended the time that I would be able to get a refund. I ended up being able to scrape up postage fee, to mail a letter as a substitute for the document they requested.

Cutting to the chase, I have contacted DE almost every day in order to find out status of credit. Each time I spoke with illogical and inhumane reps at both level 1 and 2 level helpdesks. Supervisors refused to allow me to get a name or contact info for the fraud department and/or senior management. I repeatedly begged and pleaded that my claim be expedited as I have chronic medical and mental conditions and that I had absolutely no money for medications, doctors visits, and almost out of food. Reps of this company act with callous indifference to the suffering of their account holders, most like myself have no other monetary means or resources.

Again, as I have a serious mental disorder, arguing and pleading with the robots at this organization, literally drove me into deep depression and I needed to go to them ER for suicidal ideation due to all the nonsense emotional distress caused.

I understand that my claim was one of however many being investigated but not everyone's pursuant circumstances are equal. Some might not have the same since of urgency. Just like emergency rooms prioritize patients bases on the severity of a given circumstance, so should DE. Not every claimant has notified them that they are subsisting on a meager food supply and need money for medications and treatment.

Within the Revdex.com and elsewhere, I have seen complaints similarly to mine, where already marginalized consumers, have faced the unjust, undignified, and absurdity of trying to recover money to cover living expenses. I am flabbergasted that the US gov't continues to contract with DE, given the critical allegations against the for them for horrific and ridiculous practices and policies.

Through my interaction with DE, I am sickened and appalled that they are allowed to function in the manner they do.Desired Settlement: Timely provide a provisional credit within the 10 business days as per the federal law, MasterCard's, and their own policies. I reported, by phone, on May 12 in accordance with the terms and conditions. To not have my refunded delayed to bureaucratic and unscrupulous internal processes. To not have to starve and delay medical treatment, while my funds are being uncorteously, if not unlawfully held. To have DE removed as the Treasury's financial agent or a complete comment overall of their operations and procedures. To be treated with the mininimal amount of humanity, decency, consideration, and respect. For this organization to resolve their distinction, so that they will have better than a F Grade by Revdex.com.

Review: On September 11, $was taken from my account by a company called Why not lease itI never authorized this company to take money from my accountThe email I received from them stated the money would come from another accountI immediately called Direct Express to ask why was it authorized if there was no prior authorization from meI have called several times and each time someone has told me something differentYour first associate told me I had to wait until I got a dispute letter from Direct Express, and when I got that letter I needed to fill it out and send it in with the dispute number on itAfter several days of waiting I did not receive the dispute letter, so I called back and was told if I had not received that letter, I could write my own dispute letter and was given an address to send it inI was also told on this call that a provisional credit could be given if the letter was in by the 26th of the month.By this time it is already the twenty second of the monthThe letter came the next dayI filled it out, took it to the post office and sent it priority mail so it would get there by the 26th of the month.I called on the morning of the 26th at which time I spoke to a gentleman that was very rude and tried to rush me off the phonehe said his name was [redacted]He told me that I should not have sent it priority, that you all only take general mailThen he went on to say he could not issue the provisional credit because they did not have the letter and did not see itI tracked the letter and it was received at 9:am on the 26thI told him that I did not think it was fair and I asked to speak to a supervisorHe said you can speak to one but he is going to tell you the same thingThe guy was just rudeHe put someone on the phone that sounded just like himHis name was [redacted] and he said I was speaking to the highest level supervisorHe was just as rude and told me I must be deaf and needed to turn the volume up on my phone if I thought he was yelling at meHe went on to say that he could not guarantee the provisional credit even if I got the letter in before the 26thHe was so rude I told him where to go and hung up the phoneI know for a fact that he put negative comments on my accounts just from talking to other associates after thenThis card is used by Social Security Disability to deposit my monthly disability paymentsDirect Express does a lot of social security accounts and I know Social Security cannot be aware of how their clients are being treatedI do plan on submitting a claim to Social Security about how our accounts are treatedI feel these accounts are supposed to be securedNo one should be able to go into our accounts without authorization.Your company should take some responsibility for this happening alsoAlso I feel this company is doing some unscrupulous things by not telling clients that they have the option of sending in their own dispute letter, instead of waiting on you to send one outMy letter was not even sent out until I called the second time to complainI think also what is happening is you are letting your rude associates make a decision on who they will and won't let get provisional credits.You should have a set policy in placeI did everything you asked of me and you still did not support me.Desired Settlement: Deposit my funds back into my account Why Not Lease It took illegallyStop lying to people and tell people up front what is needed to get their provisional credits

I am in receipt of the complaint submitted to your agency by [redacted]. Mr. [redacted] is concerned about not having his Direct Express card. I have escalated his complaint to Direct Express management.

I have been informed that on 06/30/14 Direct Express replaced and expedited a card to Mr. [redacted]. He should have received the card in two business days but card was not delivered due to the wrong state code on the address.

On 07/10/14 another card was expedited to Mr. [redacted]. Records show that on 07/14/14 Mr. [redacted] registered the card and has accessed to his funds. A credit was issued to Mr. [redacted]'s account in the amount of $17.50 for the expedited card delivery fee and card replacement fee.

I believe Mr. [redacted]'s concerns have been resolved. Please encourage Mr. [redacted] to contact me directly if he has any questions or further concerns.

Sincerely,

Review: Direct Express was notified of their customer [redacted] was deceased as of 6/28/2014. They forwarded paper work to myself to be filled out and returned to them and requested a death certificate, small estate affidavit and or a notice of estate executrix. The requested documents and forms were received by myself, then completed and returned via mail to Direct Express on 07/22/14. I contacted to direct express several times in the 9 weeks since I sent the required paper work for the release of my mothers funds. After countless efforts of customer service reps to access the information, which as granted by the blair county court of common pleas, is now my information to access/ govern, They refuse to grant me access to the account. Finally today I was given a supervisor by the name of [redacted] ID# [redacted] who informed me of several things, 1. That the department that could verify if the information was received was account services.2 He was not interested in contacting them regarding this matter. 3 That he would not transfer me to speak with some one in the department 4. He would not give me the contact information need to reach the department, and finally, he was the highest supervisor with the company so there would be no one else that could assist. he then said for me to have a nice day and disconnected the line.Desired Settlement: I would like Direct Express to follow their protocol and Grant request as Executor of Estate For [redacted], as ordered by the Blair County Court of common Pleas, to obtain access to and exercise authority of the the account(s).

Review: I was locked out of my account on line. I put in the correct SS# and Zip code. I gave my correct email address but it kept saying no customer by that name and information.

I got Customer Service after about five trys.

I got very rude service from the first agent. They kept saying they couldn't understand . The supervisor came on line after about 10 minutes of trying to get her on the phone.

She kept saying to repeat information They understood because my name is hard to pronounce and and refuse to help me with my account. The bottom line is I can't access my account on line.

I am locked out of access to my money from SSI payments. I want to know about my money. The CSR acted they were playing a game. Acted very unprofessionally.Desired Settlement: I would like to access my account online. I would like to retrieve my payments of money online.

I would like the people I dealt with lessons on how to treat customers with respect.

No compromising of people information as SS#, no fraudalent intent to steal my money by saying no record of me in the system and locking me out of my account.

Review: On 10/**/2013 I called Direct Express @ [redacted] to report my card lost and the CSR proceeded to process my replacement card I was informed that I would receive the replacement card with in 7-10 business days. I then asked if there was a way I can get it sooner and I was informed that and expedited service was an option for 13.50 and I asked if that could come off my card I was informed yes and the replacement process continued I asked if there was a tracking number and she said I can call bk on 10/**/2013 to get it.

Wrong info was given and upper management did not know anything nor could they help me to give me info about the where abouts for my cardDesired Settlement: I want a phone call with clarification in regards to the CSR department and the in accurate information that is given I want the right info and actually a refund of my 13.50 because it was not said to be business days when it came to expedited service that is why I paid the 13.50 because I didn't want to wait for the 7-10 business days I wanted the two day service that was told to me for 13.50
