I was issued this card forcefully by my employer advance auto. I had nochoice in the matter, nor did i agree to use this service. I informedmy manager that i wanted a paper check but was told no. She said, "thisis how corporate saves money and you did sign a paper agreeing to theadp card." I setup my card pin over the phone and took it to walmartsto withdraw my measly 148.50 pay.
I first did a balance inquiry andnoted my whopping 148.50 balance. I then swiped again and tried towithdraw 147 using the credit card option. It said transaction declinedand spit out a receipt stating my balance at 147.08. ERG! So i swipedit again and this time tried the savings option and was declined againtaking my balance to 146.50. I then grabbed a supervisor and she got towork trying to figure out WTF happened. She called the ATM machinecompany and they blamed it on the ADP. She called ADP and they blamedit on the ATM. At this point i was furious and just wanted my money offthe dang card! The employee asked me to try the card one more timeusing the checking option and it was declined again taking my balancedown 145.50.
Not one red penny in my hand of my paycheck for thiseither... I got back to work and called ADP and got a lady named linda'with a thick indian accent'. She replaced the money as a 1 timecurtosy and i ended up using one of the 3 checks i got with the card topay myself with paper. I ran back to walmart to cash it but theywouldnt do it. My manager was filling out the check while i was on thephone reading out transaction numbers to her and she mispelled my nameand scribbled it out. Luckily, i bank with woodforest and they wentahead and deposited my check... Saving the day. I wonder if there issome kind of law against this or something? If it wasnt for lack ofwork in my area and getting lucky finding this job, i would quit overthis very matter.
