I need my money

Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

They never sent me an email to confirm my case. I talked with the guy just for him to never send me my email.

I can't get on the phone with any operator. This is ridiculous.

Updated by user Jul 26, 2026

Don't buy from this company next time

Original review Jul 11, 2026
i bought a card for my daughter's birthday through secure spend at Walmart. the card refuses to work on this site it's a confirmed non scam site there's ZERO reason it shouldn't work besides your company being entitled and auto cancelling it my daughter wanted to use it for her birthday just to come to my sad because it wouldn't work I contacted customer service and they were nice and tried to help but there was no way to help the card does NOT say it can't do certain websites this is honestly pathetic for a known company to refuse a website and ruin a child's birthday because they can't do a simple gaming website transaction for 5 dollars. (the card is 30 but the website she only needs 5 dollars for)

User's recommendation: dont buy gift cards throuhg this company if you want to use it on a lesser known company

SecureSpend - Review in Financial Services category from Newark, New Jersey

Contacted the company first

AI Highlights
  • - PIN reset failed; ATM withdrawals blocked.
  • - Unauthorized charges totaling $250 and $50.
  • - No response for over a month; asks for investigation and refund.

Hello. Good evening.

My name is Sulaimon Oluo. I brought a card. This is my card. I brought a card, a secured a a secured card, a secured gift card I bought it on last month, August.

And when I went online trying to reset my PIN, to set up my PIN so that I can withdraw the money in ATM. The money didn't go through. And in the next day, I called to check my credit card, and they said, like, somebody else, someone used my credit my my secure card. Somebody used my secure card to pay something on that dock, like, 250 thou $250.

One is 200. Another one is 50 doll to pay for on that dock. I don't know which one. I did not buy anything from on that dock.

I still have the card with me. If you can do more investigation, I did not buy anything from Underdog. I need my money back. It's almost, like, almost a month and a half now.

Like, you guys don't respond to me. Even though I even went online I even went online, you guys don't reply online. You your email is not working nowadays. I need my money back.

I need my money back. If there's any if there's any way you can call me, you can call me.

My last six number of my card number is {{Redacted}}. Thank you so much.

Compré la tarjeta el 20 de marzo, el 21 en el mismo Walgreens Florida a las 11 de la mañana, pero antes se hizo un consumo no autorizado ese mismo 21 a las 8 am, un consumo en New York Taco Grill. Solo usé 13$ de esa tarjeta y no puedo reclamar.

Declined charge and missing balance

Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

It affected a lot cause I have to pay a balance of $70 to add up to be $500, but $5.50 left on the card and they say only $430 came off the card, and when I was tryna take the $500 it saying decline, but when I go low it say approve. It like approving, declining.

They ain't do nothing. Was hoping to get the rest so I can pay the rest or something.

Loss:
$70

User's recommendation: I would like for the service to be a little better then it was. Because it's not really addressing the problem that I have. Also if possible l will like for the rest of the money to be refunded to the card

AI Highlights
  • - Card frozen; $300 loaded.
  • - Ownership verified; replacement promised in 10 days, not delivered.
  • - Case reopened; 45-90 day resolution.

This company froze my brand new secure spend Visa debit gift card on the same day I bought it and loaded it with three hundred dollars. They said I had to prove ownership of the card.

I did that, and I was told that once I did my part and I was verified as the owner, I would be mailed a new card within ten days. It's now been like four months, and I still don't have a new card with my three hundred bucks on it. The company closed the case once, so I had them reopen it, and now I'm waiting again. I need my money to buy myself and my family food, and the last time I talked to the company, they told me it could take another 45 to 90 days to find out when I'm going to get my money.

At this point, I have documented everything that has happened, none of which has been due to my mistakes or errors. I am 100 percent sure I'm not the only person the company has done this to. I now await my money and am considering filing a class action lawsuit against the company, and if forced to do so, will be seeking punitive damages.

I would much rather just get my new card with my 300.00 bucks on it. I beg for help.

Pro tip- You don't "file" a class action lawsuit. You either join one if it exists or you take your concern to an attorney who will investigate and see if enough potential claimants exist to initiate one. Both take way longer than four months.

Card stuck pending after activation

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

AI Highlights
  • - It previously worked, but this time it activated with a waiting period that blocks use.
  • - Value is 100.00 and cannot be lost or used.

Antes, cuando la usaba, nunca tuve problemas, pero esta última vez se activó, pero había un mensaje en espera para usarla y todavía continúa el mensaje, y no he podido usarla. Es de 100.00 que no puedo perder.

Me afectó, ya que no pude usarla para lo que quería ni en ningún lugar. Necesito que quiten el tiempo de espera para usarla, ya que entiendo que soy yo la perjudicada; además, el dinero no lo puedo perder.

Loss:
$108

User's recommendation: Solucionarme el problema para que pueda usar mi tarjeta darle un visto bueno y no espera para poder usar y que consejos daría a los clientes que la tarjeta más segura para usar es la de ustedes pero como todo tiene sus pro y sus contras
