Payroll card Unauthorized transactions/trans. issues Maryland

Netspend- -My card was hacked a year ago during a breach with - -. Netspend notified me and sent me a new card and my old card was supposed to be cancelled. I noticed on two different occasions that the card was still active so I called customer service and attempted to speak to the customer service. I say attempt because the only english they seem to speak is what is written on their script but they assured me the card would be cancelled. Well here we are a year later and the card that was supposedly cancelled got used in - about 7 times within 15 min and took $600.00. I immediately called when I got the text alerts ( the charges started at - and I called at - same day ) and told them not to approve the transactions which were still pending. Again the lack of understanding english was a huge barrier and three different customer service reps told me different things. I finally got someone from corporate to call me back three days later and she stated since this was clearly their fault my money would be credited by the end of business. Here we


money because it was posted I had to file a written dispute that must be investigated. They admitted to me that this card was part of the security breach and should have been cancelled but there was nothing they can do to help me and they refuse to transfer me to corporate again. This is outrageous, never have I had such difficulty when a company clearly dropped the ball. Now my mortgage is going to be late and I have no idea when I will see my money. They refuse to allow me to speak to an American or give me the corporate number. Total I have spent over 5 hours on the phone and all I get is some foreigner reading off a script. They will not give me their names either when I speak to them! I am wondering if I should contact an attorney.
