Google Complaint

Google Inc. Prepaid card department,

Google Wallet is a service that allows you to make payments using any number of bank accounts or debit/credit cards. It allows you to add money to your " Wallet Card '' ( essentially a re-loadable - - by transferring money from your bank via ACH ( for free ) or by adding funds with a debit card ( for a fee of 2.9 % ). Here 's the problem. When I add money to my card via the free ACH route, the system tells me very clearly before I complete the transaction that the funds will be available in a few minutes. Once I 've completed the transaction, and check the status, it says the funds wo n't be available until a date 10 days in the future. Usually I 'm doing this in the checkout line at a store, and I 'm forced to add the money again with my debit card, costing me that 2.9 % fee.

it comes out right away. But I 've already added money via ACH, which is going to come out on the next business day. So in this example, the money is taken out of my account TWICE, with a waiting period of up to 10 days to access the other half of it. Bottom line, I add money, it says it will be available within a few minutes. After I submit, it says it will not be available until several days in the future. Their service is lying and misrepresenting itself, and causing undue financial hardship. I have added - screenshots. The first shows that when I go to add $100.00, it says the money will be available within a few minutes. The second was taken after submitting that $100.00 transaction, showing that it wo n't be available until - -. The - screenshots were taken less than a minute apart.
