Blackhawk Network Holdings Inc. Prepaid Card Complaint

Mobile wallet Fraud or scam

Blackhawk Network Holdings Inc. Prepaid card department,

Mobile wallet Fraud or scam Texas

I purchased Reloadit brand reload packs for a - prepaid card. This company requires you to load these packs into an online 'safe ' and then from there you can load your card. The website allowed me to load these packs into my safe, then would n't let me load them to my card. I logged out and came back later to find the company had locked me out of my own safe. I called their customer service line numerous times. I was accused of stealing these packs and was told I must provide proof that I bought them. They considered it suspicious to have purchased these packs from more than - location with days between each purchase. At - point they even said I should expect to be contacted by the FBI. The customer service representative gave me an email address to send the proof that I had purchased the packs. I was required to send photos of the reload cards and receipts. I was also required to provide a photo of me holding a government ID. I emailed everything the same


called more times. They put me on forever holds on more than - occasion ( that 's when you get put on hold with no intention of them returning to the line, - minutes without checking in ) They locked my account permanently with $650.00 dollars in there. A number of days after being told by phone they never got my email, somebody responded to the email I sent them. She asked for more information and was quite polite. Then she called me to confirm my address for the refund check. Still no check. I emailed her and now she is unresponsive too. This has been going on for months. Every person I call now says there is no way I 'm getting my money back. I recently called them again to try to resubmit the information they require. They said they wo n't be making any effort to resolve this issue and my money is gone.
