No replacements for this, huh?
I tried to spend the remaining balance on my T-Mobile Visa Debit and apparently the account was closed by the Blackhawk Network without notice. I called customer service and they said there is no way to recover the funds.
Anyone else with a similar issue with Blackhawk? Any recomendations?
Maybe their are sending you a check in the mail? Otherwise, try CFPB.
I called the customer service # on the back of the T-Mobile VIsa Debit card yesterday. They told me that the bank closed this account in Oct, 2015 and that no check will be sent for the remaining funds.
Is it common for Blackhawk to close an account and deny access to the remaining funds? Sounds like mafia tactics.
I can still login to my T-Mobile Visa Debit account online and see the remaining funds available.
It is closing before I even knew it was open. Any other ms prepaid visa deals we need to be aware of. Dammit.
HAHA…where were you for the last 2 years?
Any ReloadIt in Sacramento area?
Can you still get the card?
Since this is dying any reloadits in NYC/LI area?
This morning was the first time I didn’t see a reloadit credit in my account after a 300+ load – did anyone else experience this?
I don’t think there is any mention of the credit not carrying until the end of its useful life, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t axe it.
Since it’s dying —- anyone have any Reloadit sources near San Francisco? I’d like to hit a minimum spend with minimum effort before it’s done.
Goodnight sweet prince. I managed to get nearly a million bucks in cost free MS through you over the last 2 years.
wow!
