General purpose card Managing, opening, or closing account Oregon

I 've had a Serve One VIP prepaid card issued by American Express for several months. It was an attractive card due to its low fees and ability to safely load cash at many locations outside traditional banking hours, as well as the ability to transfer that money to my other out-of-state bank accounts with pre-existing debited bills. However, I received notice on - - that my account was being being shut down and could no longer load my money. There was no notice, no explanation given, and no recourse offered whatsoever. I attempted to contact Serve for further information and was denied any assistance with regards to the sudden actions taken against my account.


a gift card ) for $200.00 in order to have funds available in another account for an upcoming bill that was due via auto pay. It seems quite clear now that Serve has taken adverse action against me for using their product feature that is readily accessed and available on their website. If they did n't want this feature used by their consumers, then it amazes me they still offer it in the first place. Again, there was no notice given and no ability to rectify the situation. I find this highly frustrating and excessive on behalf of Serve.
