Citibank Prepaid Card Complaint

Citibank Prepaid card department,

Other special purpose card Fraud or scam Rhode Island

I switched from my - postpaid to prepaid. - reimbursed me for overpaid fees by sending me a Citibank prepaid card preloaded with these fees ( roughly $27.00 ). To access the funds I needed to " register '' the card on a website operated by Citibank. This was necessary to have the funds wired to my bank account as I did not want to use the debit card. However, the Citibank website - logs me out every time I either try to have the funds wired or being sent to me as a check. After having tried with different browsers I gave up and started using the card to pay for purchases in order to make some use of the funds. However, to do this, " activation '' of the card is necessary as well and the activation leads to additional costs, depending on card usage etc. Trying to cancel the card is not possible as the website is broken beyond repair for weeks now and the phone number provided only is a robot that is not helpful. So - forwarded the money they owe me to Citibank, which provided me with 3 ways of accessing these funds ( transfer to bank account, send check, use card for purchases ), all of them forcing me into an agreement with Citibank which produces additional costs, two of them not working at all due to website errors, and no working way of cancelling the card.
