General purpose card Managing, opening, or closing account Alabama

I called Rushcard to dispute a charge on my account. The woman said it would take approximately 90 days to handle the dispute. She said it would be faster to get my daughter to give me the $88.00 back which was the charge amount, because it was from her insurance making the charge to my account. I had previously paid my daughter 's Insurance the month before and apparently the insurance company had went ahead and took out her insurance charge again the next month. Then the woman proceeded to say that she had to cancel my card and that it was standard procedure. I told her that she could not cancel my card, because I had a direct deposit coming through the next day that I needed and that I needed my funds to take care of my bills and my children. I told her not to cancel my card. I told her several times not to cancel my card and that I needed my funds to take care of my family and my bills. I told her she better not cancel my card. She kept saying she had to cancel my card. I told her I needed to


my account and said that the card had been cancelled by the previous woman she then proceeded to tell me that it would take 7 days to get me another card ; however, she could charge me $30.00 to get me an expedited card which she would take out of my direct deposit when it hit the next day. My complaint is that I never wanted my card cancelled in the first place I told the lady that I intended to cancel my card myself after I received my direct deposit and that I did not want her to cancel my card and that I would do it myself and that I feel I should not have been charged $30.00 for an expedited card when I did not want my card cancelled in the first place.
