I've been with them for many years, at least 10. The only fee I'm charged is $5, unless I use the ATM (atms own fee). However, my only issue is the advertisements state that you can pull about $900 daily through ATM, but it has never let me go beyond $300 daily. This is frustrating when you have higher bills (like rent), that you're trying to just get paid (no online option), without having to sit and wait at the bank and charged the bank fee for the withdrawal, or having to draw multiple days.

If we don't have a savings account active, there shouldn't be a savings account balance on the main page. The reason being is those of us on welfare have yo argue when we show them our account information. I fought for 3mo explaining I don't have a savings account and when I asked YOUR COMPANY to help me prove it they refused. Also, your Asian women do not comprehend English well I had to make numerous calls a still no help with proof. I was accused of fraud. Put the savings stats elsewhere

Net Spend helps us out exactly when we need it, and it comes early if you set up direct deposit, a 10*/10* when there's a need for trusting a card this is the one.Don't wait, get it now and save yourself some time and money.

What a scam app. I bought a prepaid card to make an online purchase and loaded the card. Only to be told I have to email or fax over documents proving my identity, only to have them constantly tell me every piece of identification they ask for is not acceptable. I don't recommend buying these prepaid cards because you'll lose your money just trying to prove who you are. I've never seen such a bigger scam than this one. I highly do NOT recommend. Buyer beware. I've given them all the required inf

Useless. My card was switched from PayPal Prepaid to straight Net spend. I was told to sign with the same sign in, but I signed in with PayPal and that doesn't work. Plus if you press I already have a card, the system takes you to activation, which is done already. There is no way to create a new account. PayPal Prepaid was great. Net spend alone is absolutely useless and if you call, customer service is also useless. I suggest you use any other service then this absolutely useless one.
