I deposited my federal benifits to achieve card and never received it cannot get through to speak to anyone due to LONGER THAN NORMAL HOLD TIMES how many have heard that? Tried to report my card stolen to cancel where my benifits will go on it and can't do it online or over. the phone. I Despise these DESPICABLE ASSHOLES!!!! REAL NICE TAKING FROM THE POOR. ACHIEVE CARD IS A SCAM!!!!

A scam yes I agree its a scam; I only got the card for use on PayPal to pay my eBay auction winnings. I have made over 100 purchases in the last few weeks an than my purchases started getting declined and I was shocked when I logged into the account to check the balance because I knew feul well I had enough funds to cover the small purchases only to find that I had a balance of only $0.34 so I took a real close look at the transaction history and realized I had racked up nearly $300 in hidden fees. Every purchase I made through PayPal was charged a $2.50 service fee.

I called them to learn that they charge this fee when ever you use an online payment gateway like PayPal and the fees are non-refundable. Something GreenDot never did and I thnk Im going back to them after getting ripped off. I only changed cards becasue I was tired of paying hte monthly service fee to GreenDot and Achieve only charges a $25 a year fee.

I utilize pre-paid cards on PayPal to isolate my real bank accounts from some of the would be theives and conartists that operate on eBay and PayPal after a bad experiance years ago where someone had encoded a false check out page in their eBay listing and nearly cleaned me out in a few short days after using the Buy It Now option and checking out witht he fake button that was encoded in to their ad.
