Consumers beware if your looking for a competent online banking company this is not it. The customer service representatives are lousy at listening can't follow along to resolve issues. Example, I am an Uber driver and when I got my Go Bank Uber debit card in the mail and was activating it I guess I didn't fully go through the email verification link and forgot to write down what password I used. You would think it would be a simple fix as sending another email verification links is done all the time. Nope not with Go Bank, they insisted on saying that there is a link on Uber's website under the banking tab. No there isn't so after a month of calling, so many times on hold, having to repeat myself multiple times, getting redundent questions I got online access today because I put the Uber representative on the phone. Save yourself the grief and time in avoiding opening an account with these guys they are plain dumb.

I had GoBank for about a year and I can say that I didn't have many issues. I had a few friends with other banks who lost their debit cards and were able to access their money immediately at local branches. My biggest concern was that if I lost my card i'd have to wait a long time before I received my replacement to access my money. The biggest downfall was the time it took for funds to be available after making deposits. Also, the customer service is foreign and doesn't run like a financial institution. I opened an SafeBalance acct with Bank Of America and feel much more at ease with this acct. It has a $4.95/mo charge but it never overdrafts/or has insufficient fees. When I've had issues i just go to a branch in person. I'm glad I left GoBank.

I don't give much advice on products but some just need light shined on negative, dark business practices. GoBank debit card connected to UberDriver App continues to fail good hard working people. I've been locked out of my account "vault" separate savings option that was the reason for signing up. Don't do it!! Seems like they're always "updating" which means no access. Excessive is word that comes to mind. The App is always having log in issues and few times of log in no good 24 hour lock out unless reset with device other then cell. Well, PC and laptop, tablet, most times nothing resets account!! Don't even think your money is your money. GoBank finds it "not my problem" Run!!!!

Gobank is a terrible account to open. I deposited a check on the 16th of the month and my money will not be available until the 31st of the month. GoBank (green dot) enjoys my money while my bills stack up and for the mean time I can't put food on the table because I can't access my own money. I will obviously close this account as soon as I withdraw all my money but,I am just letting you know up front before you apply for this gobank card. DON'T OPEN A GOBANK ACCOUNT OR ANY ACCOUNT ISSUED BY GREEN DOT. This financial institution should be extremely fined and the people running it should go to prison for a very long time for doing this to people like.

Two cards compromised in 3 weeks and they want to wait up to 15 days to address the issue....while the first breach has not been resolved and money has not been returned. Our account was wiped out this time. Their customer service is limited in information and capabilities. Had to explain the same thing multiple times and the customer service rep just kept repeating the same thing and making no effort to question or understand me. There was also a 125.50 charge that we did not authorize, that was later reversed by the merchant.....the customer service rep tells me, oh that's just a pretty Auth for gas. NO HONEY...NO GAS STATION FOES A PRETTY AUTH FOR $125 ....but she is sticking with that story. I want them to flag that as it is a red flag. ..but she doesn't think so. Waiting for a call back from her supervisor......

I've had a checking account with Go Bank for several months and have had nothing but problems. When you call to talk to a real person, they are never helpful. When I email questions, I get a response that either doesn't even answer the question I asked, or they tell me there's nothing they can do . And the last straw for me is the fact that they are refusing MULTIPLE checks from my customers. So I have checks that they refuse to allow me to deposit at all, and their suggestion is that I go to a different institution and pay a fee to cash these checks, and then go to Walmart to load the money into my account. THIS IS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!!! I am sooo done with them and don't recommend them to anybody.

WORST BANKING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE! There was a charge on my account that I DID NOT MAKE. I called to let them know and they said they had to cancel my card. This was my sole account and had no way of accessing my funds. I told the guy that I needed to go to the ATM to take out cash that I could use until my replacement came. I told him that I DID NOT AUTHORIZE HIM TO CLOSE MY CARD. He insisted that he had to. You have no way of accessing your funds if your card is close. MY DIRECT DEPOSIT WAS THROUGH THEM! I was without money for over 2 weeks. I got my card and 2 weeks later the closed my account for NOOO REASON!!! once your account is closed they take away the option to even speak to a live person. BEWARE ! their customer service reps are oversees so it is a challenge to understand what they are saying. If you want a onlin ebank GO WITH SIMPLE BANKING!!! THEY ARE AMAZING !

(((W*A*R*N*I*N*G)))GOBANK.COM/I've been using go bank for 4 months and I've had nothing but bad problems with them the whole time. They finally canceled the account on me after I had 3 different cards sent out and never received any of them. That's 2 weeks per card or 10 days. Review and what ever else. I been trying to get the 800 out of my account now for going on 7 weeks now. I think they are just trying to rob me out of my hard earned money. Honestly I feel like I will never see that money ever again from the run around they have given me for 7 weeks straight. My advice is to not use GOBANK for anything

I liked GoBank at first. Just a simple, dummy-proof bank which has a nice app. And then...the company's true character was revealed upon my first issue which required me to inquire with customer service. My first attempted inquiry with customer service was through the GoBank app via message/chat option. After 2 days of no reply, I called customer service to speak with a human. I explained to this cunt of a customer service rep what the issue is and that I need her help to resolve it (issue being an order that In successfully cancelled with Amazon, but had a "pending" charge on my Transactions list. After 4 business days, I contacted Amazon who said they already contacted GoBank and did indeed confirm successful cancellation and even provided GoBank with the Settlement Verification Code. Amazon also told me that they actually didn't charge my account, but rather merely verified with GoBank that the funds were indeed available ion my account. This action was the origin of the "pending" transaction). Those are probably the only words I was able to get out the entire conversation because from then on, she continued to talk over me, cut me off mid-sentence, express zero concern or empathy, repeat herself over and over while seeming to read, in verbatim, content from my policy. To top it off, her English was terrible and I almost feel that she genuinely didn't even comprehend half the shit I was explaining to her. Once I realized this cunt was not going to resolve my problem, I requested to speak with her supervisor. She quickly said that's "not an option" and that she could only schedule a "call-back" for me, in which some kind of supervisor calls me back per my request. I asked when the call-back will be, and she said that she doesn't know and that it could take 1 day to 5 days. At that point, I just gave up and expressed, in so many words, how shitty GoBank is and that I'll be closing my account pending my refund deposit. I say that to say this: If you value the customer service end of a bank, avoid GoBank at all costs. To be honest, I've never even written a review of any company until now; that's how compelled I felt after this experience. Thanks for the platform to vent my frustration, guys! Hope this serves as somewhat of a forewarning.

I was very unhappy with big banks a few years ago, so I signed up for this. My paychecks are deposited here, and my disabled daughter's SSI checks were also. She passed a couple weeks ago and all of a sudden I cannot access my account. GoBank insists that SSA told them to block my access, SSA says they just don't do that. I have spent two full days back and forth on the phone and on hold for very extended periods with both. I cannot pay my bills, or pay for my daughter's funeral service because that is where my money is. I spoke with Joseph who claimed to be the corporate manager and he was very unhelpful. He keeps insisting that he has to have a letter from SSA giving permission to release MY money.

There was fraudulent use of my debit card and over $500 was stolen out of my account via two ATM withdrawals and 3 other in-store purchases. The remaining $400 in the account was supposed to be sent to me via a check that was supposed to arrive in 2 weeks. I called two other times and each time they said I would receive my refund in the two week time frame. So, six weeks had passed and then I FINALLY received my money after numerous calls and requests to speak with supervisors that were often denied. Now here I sit and still no $500. I received a letter stating that the ATM withdrawals and in-store purchases were "valid transactions." I called to dispute again and I was trying to get more information about where the fraud occurred. It turns it out that these transactions took place in 2 different states pretty far away from where I live. When I asked for more information, they said all he could give me was the store name and the city, and for the ATM's it showed in their system as Cardtronics, Brooklyn, NY. This could be one of 5,000 different machines. So, Iam still in the process of fighting to get this money back. My hope is that I can find the ATM's and retrieve the photos to prove that these transactions were not performed by myself and that I was in fact 5 states away. It seems very odd that this organization does not want to lift a finger to help me in any sort of way. Anyways, stay away from this company. Customer service is terrible if you run into any type of issue. I hope someone from their organization reads these reviews so I can receive some help that I desperately need.

My card was compromised 2 weeks ago. I called them and told them about 2 fraudulent transactions, they were able to assist me by letting me take money out of the account via ATM. I have since been waiting for a new card in the mail and I was making payments on another credit card so I could utilize that one. Unfortunately the payments on the credit card got returned for an unknown reason, then the account was placed on hold because it was reportedly compromised. I called them to inquire about why the account was compromised when I...the account holder was accessing the account. They also said the new debit card that was in the mail with a new account number that was not even activated yet was compromised. So they said they would mail a new card and it would be in my mailbox within 2 weeks. This would mean I would not have access to my money for an entire month. How am I supposed to pay my bills and rent when I can't have access to the my hard earned money!?....I asked to speak to a supervisor on the weekend but they stated no supervisor is on duty on the weekends. I will be calling them first thing monday morning to speak to a supervisor. I've been a loyal customer for about 3 years so I hope they can make up for this horrible experience.

I deposited a check through mobile banking. They indicated I had 24 hrs to cancel the deposit if the hold was going to be long. The next day I tried to cancel the deposit before the 24hr time limit but the website would not let me cancel. I then drove to the bank the check was written on and tried to cash it. The bank teller (USBank) told me the check had been cashed by GOBANK and I could not get any money. I called GoBank and they told me there was a 14 day hold. I responded that the check has cleared all ready and to release the funds. After arguing for several days they never released the funds. It's the 13 th day now and hopefully the funds will be available tomorrow. This is how they make their money, they place holds on funds they know are available and for as long as the law allows hold it so they make interest on that money. Multiply that times hundreds of customers and they can collect a lot of interest. I would not use their mobile deposit any more. I will be closing my account as soon as all my money is available!

Royal Caribbean Cruise Line issued me a refund/credit from a cruise we were on last week. The credit was sent to my GOBANK card. GoBank froze my entire account siting that they needed proof that Royal Caribbean made the refund as it could be a fraudulent refund. Royal Caribbean sent them the refund directly through the banking system - I had no contact with it or any dealing with it being put in my account. That was all done electronically by Royal Caribbean and GoBank. GoBank is requiring I contact Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, obtain a receipt for the credit or they will not allow me access to any of my account - not just the credit. I have called Royal Caribbean, they sent me an email to provide to GoBank along with a screen shot of the transaction, but it does not meet GoBanks demand for a receipt for the credit - but no receipt is issued for credits - thus Royal has no receipt to issue.

I got my check deposit on my go bank account. When I tried to use my card , it said declined. So I called and they said that my card was locked because it was a temporary card and they was going to send me a new one. It's been a whole month and I still have not received my card. I was only able to play my car note and gas bill using the account and routing number ! After , they tried saying that it was some suspicious activity and I had to submit a photo id online! I did that 3 days ago , they said it only takes 2 business days! Now that I am trying to call, it is saying that my information cannot be found so I can not get thru to anybody! I have over 600$ in my account. And I am behind on my rent because of this !

GoBank put a hold on my card 3 minutes after I had purchased food on my lunch break. They said it was due to suspicious activity when I checked the alerts. So I then looked nat my transaction history and noticed that I had a transaction made like I said above, 3 minutes after I had purchased lunch at a GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando, Florida. If you are know where Orlando is (where Walt Disney World is) and are familiar with surround cities such as Cocoa Beach, (where I was 3 miles from in Merritt Island, Florida at my place of business). Either way, I was at work at least 45 miles away from this GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando Florida. My card was charged at GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando, Florida for $372.74. The GoBank Cust. Service Rep then asked me if I had tried to make a purchase for around $371.00 at Walmart in Orlando, Florida. I answered no of course because I was at work. She was very helpful (I thought). She said that they would put a 24 hour hold onto my card to ensure that no more charges nwould be made to it. And send me a new card within 7-10 business days. This happened April 14, 2016. She told me the money would be debited back to my account in FULL $372.74 on April 21, 2016 (7 days from me disputing)(I thought) Boy was I wrong. So on the 21st of April I checked my account, no deposit. So being optimistic, I waited two more days, checked again, NO MONEY!!! So I called. First, the barely speaking English woman with whom I spoke with was INCREDIBLY RUDE. SHE HUNG UP ON ME...TWICE!!! Because I kept asking for her supervisor or manager or anyone that was higher up than her as well as someone that I could understand and spoke English as their first language which is my legal right to do so. So I call back, go thru this long and drug out process ONCE MORE!!! This lady was not rude, but nor was she helpful, or interested in listening to my case, and hearing about how I had gone through this and the money was supposed to be deposited back in two days ago yada yada yada. So I had to file a dispute case, get a case number, then go online and download the dispute form, fill it out, sign it, and email it to GoBank. I covered my ass and snail mailed it also. They emailed me back the next day saying they needed more info. And a transaction dispute form...what I had emailed them. @ copies of via email, 2 via snail mail. So i filled out two more forma and emailed them both separately to their email, then sent two via snail mail again. Today, May 10, 2016, I get an email stating that my transaction dispute was denied. I called and asked why. The man said he didn't know I asked to speak to his superior, again, he doesn't have one!!! DAMMIT, I REALLY NEED TO GO WORK THERE! NO BOSS! That must be the life! Anyways, After about 15 minutes of repeating the question "Excuse me, what did you say? Again, he spoke very broken English...He tells me that the transaction was authorized. I said their is no way that is possible, because I was at work with witnesses, and my debit card on my person, in a location far away from GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando, Florida! He said I'd have to re-dispute it, gave me a new case number, told me to fill out yet another form, and write a letter with all of the details. This is not the first incident with GoBank. Idk why I've stayed with them after the numerous sh*t they've pulled on me, but I'm definitely out now, once I get my money back. Hopefully there is some sort of class action lawsuit going on against them for this stuff. From what I've researched on the web, it seems to be pretty darn common. OH YES, ONE MORE WAY THEY F***ED ME WHEN I GOT MY NEW CARD IN THE MAIL!!! I transferred $75.00 to my husband's card, immediately afterwards I transferred $75.00 more because I felt like being nice LOL! Well, he only got one of the $75.00 deposits I sent him, but 2 were debite4d out of my account! And GoBank says that there is no way that's true. That they show no transactions of $75.00 twice in a row. They only have one. As I sat there and looked at the screen on my computer of the back to back $75.00 transactions, as well as on my print out of my statement, and the print out of the screen of the computer and on my android GoBank app. So I'm screwed out of that $75.00 too. They don't care I have an infant and a toddler to provide for, to pay for daycare for, etc...They just want to let some dumb A** that probably got my card number from a gas pump the night previous to the day the GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando, Florida transaction of $372.74 happened. I'm sure that A**HOLE is at home playing his new Xbox One or PlayStation or something to that effect for the amount of money he used of mine at a GAMESTOP #5734 in Orlando, FLORIDA!!! Must be having fun. So what do I do? Do I call the police? Do I call a huge class action attorney? $372.74 might not be a lot of money to most people. But it is life changing money to me and my family!!! Please help me!

I have a bank account with GoBank and my tax return was deposited in my account on 2/3/16 and I started making transaction paying bills they then placed a hold on my account because they felt it was my activity was unusual I had to call the number on the back of my debit card to verify my transaction which I did and they removed the hold on my account so I went back to using my debit card. Later that night they placed another hold on my card without notice and I was not able to use my card at all and then next morning I received a email saying ....We've identified some unusual activity on your GoBank account. To protect your funds, we've temporarily blocked access to your account until we're able to verify your identity. What you need to do to turn your card back on: Using your mobile phone or computer, submit a photo of your Driver's License, State ID or Passport at the website listed below. (We'll give you instructions on how to do this on the website.) When you submit the photo successfully, you'll receive a confirmation, but we'll still need up to 2 days to review it. I did what they asked that same day which was 2/4/16. As of today which is 2/10/16 the hold is still on my account and I have sent them email after email asking them why my account is still locked after the 2 business days. There is no way to contact the bank by phone and the last reply I received today was We apologize for the inconvenience. Your account is currently under review. We will call you as soon as we have an update. This has been such a horrible experience and I'm a single mother of 4 and I have no other money available on top of that I have a disconnection notice for my utility company if my payment is not submitted by 2/10/16 where I had to borrow money to pay it. I have contacted the Federal Reserve and I have a appointment with a lawyer I will be filling a law suit against this bank I hope anyone else that has had problems do the same.

ear Go Bank, Today I called the number given to me by Renia. 1-866-652-4611-2365 I talked to a guy. (Who was RUDE and acted like a real JERK) He says that they are returning my $20 in two or three weeks to my WellsFargo Checking account and they no longer want to do business with me. I assume they are going OUT of business. I was going to transfer a large sum as soon as they released my $20 which they have had since Nov 18th. I did receive the card in the mail. But it will not work because they have a hold on my account. This all started on Nov 18th. I used my business PayPal account to transfer $20 to open a Go Bank account. That did not work. So I transfered $20 from my WellsFargo checking account and they accepted that. But they put a hold on my account because of the PayPal. So I called every week but no one I talked to could connect me with a supervisor and could not release the hold. They said they would call me. They did but I was not at home. The girl Abby did NOT leave a number to call back.I never got any EMails until I left a message here. I have talked over 10 hours over 6 weeks and still do not have my $20. Thank GOD I did not transfer my Social Security and Pensions to them. Stick with a REAL Bank and beware. Avoid GO Bank at all costs. I really learned to HATE them. And all over $20

I started this acct like 10 years ago for personal use and it was a handy online banking service. But as years gone by it has went too junk. I used to get free cash withdrawals from US Bank now they charge $3 for any cash withdrawal. Used to support auto pay but not anymore. A bunch of policy changes that make no sense. More and more places are no longer accepting their debits. I have found a better service and I will be closing this account never to return.

If I could leave no stars I would it's unbelievable that they have no way to help you get your money that you earned if you loose your card. Than they tell you to report your card lost or stolen that it will give you the option to pick up cash at Walmart but than they turn around say your not eligible...... They also won't let you venmos the money because of restrictions they set on your account after you report your card lost or stolen..... gobank is utterly ridiculous because on top of holding your money hostage they also charge you fees.......

Gobank appears to be a front for money scamming. Contacted by email from a person posing as our president of our club asking to pay a vendor via wire transfer to Gobank. Played with the guy to get the account number and bank (Gobank). Called the bank to inform them what was happening. After I told them the account number and name they hung up on me. I have reasonable doubts this bank is not above the table, suspect it’s a front for overseas scammers. My opinion, stay away from them.

pro no fees if min meet no overdrafts cos if your account is hack and they send you a new card the old account (even though the actual account numbers stay the same) just has all its history gone so if you are to get a refund on the old card number you wont get it and theyre support cant help

GoBank will not accept direct deposit for IRS 2020 income tax returns and the direct deposit for the 3rd stimulus check. GoBank will return both the 2020 income tax refund and 3rd stimulus check to the IRS without giving the customer an explanation. This will cause your account to go in the negative especially if you are planning on your direct deposit to post on a particular date. GoBank Will not offer the $100 to cover overdrafts even though you may have a direct deposit pending.

I received the card in the mail also text messages. I never applied to this bank. I got no emails. I don’t know how they got my information. And like other people I can’t get in touch with a real person in the customer service and they keep asking for your SOcial security number which is very odd. Red flag!! Dont trust this!! I’ll be shredding this one

I did not request an account nor card, but one arrived. I had received three text messages a few days ahead that it was coming. So they not only have my name/address, but my cell phone number. No options to speak to a human on their 855-495-1334 number to terminate. @Ian (another poster) the $2,345.21 on the paper that came with your card is just an example of what their app looks like, NOT YOUR account balance.

If I could give them a - 500 I would not only did they send me out a dummy card and told me to activate it the other card that they were sending me out the account number did not match in the meantime my company said that they sent the direct deposit through so basically I didn't get paid for a whole two weeks because I go to Banks customer service apps does absolutely not know what they're doing

This is the worst bank I have ever dealt with. A cruise line sent me a refund almost 3 months ago and GoBank doesn’t see anything. I don’t have $700 to give away. They are the worst with helping their customers. Also I have never spoken to anyone from the states. No more speaks go English. I might need to get a lawyer and also file charges with the BBB

This is a very bad online bank. They hang up on you when you ask to speak with a supervisor about unlawful behavior, actions and abuse on their part. I called in to speak with someone about being charged for them sending out a new card without telling me that I would be charged. I got the run around and hung up on 7 times. Don’t waste your time unless you want mistreatment.

I had $110.00 stolen from my account as "money sent". The persons name and email are shown on my account online. I reported this immediately and received a reply that after reviewing the complaint it was not determined to be fraud.???? This is on the Go Bank Uber debit card. I am done with this BS bank. Time to find a more secure relationship. This is a Banana Republic joke of a bank!!!

They do not have good costumer service, I keep calling and calling to get my account deleted... But they will not do so even after all of these monthly fees. I want my account cancelled as I no longer work or have money to maintain the account. This site is a fraud... I will report this to the Federal Trade Commission, it is stupid they will not close my account after getting my account to zero. That is a lie!

Held a $50 imenities hold for a 1 night hotel stay for 2 weeks and refused to release the funds even though the merchant gave them authorization to do so. Unacceptable to hold my money for 14 days for no reason. No email available to contact them probably because the complaints would overload their system! They suck

I have had money stole from Go Bank in Aug and now it’s sept and I still haven’t got my money back. Strange think is the person that stole my money had the same email as GO Bank. I have been trying to get my money back since aug and they tell me now I will get it in oct. really. Not only this I believe this country is out of this country because you can’t understand a word they say. I had to tell the lady my address 5 times because she couldn’t spell Forest. Really that’s a second grade spelling word. If you value your money go somewhere else this isn’t the bank for you.

Go bank will steal your small deposits even when you screenshot them. When you call Customer service no one seems to understand what you’re talking about. And when you ask them to repeat something they get an attitude put you on hold and hang up on you. I asked the customer service lady what happened and why I seen the transaction this morning and now it’s gone and the money is gone she said don’t question the bank. They stole $100 in two days for me I screenshot it it and submitted it and they said give them 30 Days to investigate. They charge fees for everything.

Total scam company. I had my identity stolen and they would not cancel my account as I could not provide the mailing address where the card was being sent. I could obviously provide my social security number and birth date, but they would not close my account. I talked to four different customer service employees and they were on cells phones that had a terrible connection and could not help me.

At first I loved it, because I never had a problem. Bank is excellent when you don't have a problem. Customer service is rude and actively refuses to help or even listen. Asked for a supervisor, agent sent me back to beginning of queue. Real professional. Found out Go Bank is part of GreenDot, and it all makes sense. GreenDot is fraudulent company who steals your money. So I guess Go Bank is capitalizing on a transaction stuck in pending limbo to steal that money from me.

I received a card that I did not request and I did not open an account. I attempted several times to call customer service, but when I entered the 16 digit card number, it was invalid. I attempted to complete a fraud report and when I submitted, the message stated "unable to process." When I attempted to use their "chat" function, there was a message from 5 days earlier stating it was unavailable. I won't activate the card, nor will I provide my SSN. I filed a complaint with the FDIC and our State Attorney's office.
