Walmart
Wal-Mart Prepaid Visa Debit Money Card Is a Total Rip Off!

I purchased three of Wal-Mart Prepaid Visa Money Card for my children as a Christmas gift and preloaded them with $25.00 each and paid other charges for the card bring the cost for each card up to almost $34.00 each. Only to find after my children opened them and I tried to activate them did I realize what an absolute RIP OFF these cards are.in order to activate them I had to give all my personal information and was forced to apply for THREE! Visa Money cards and each card is going to cost me $4.95 a month. All I wanted was to give my children a cash gift to allow them to buy what they wanted and now I am stuck holding three Visa money cards.

I have tried to call the customer service number that they provided me when I purchased the cards and all there is an automated system and NO way to talk to a real person.

To add insult to injury after activating the cards I am now receiving text messages on my cell phone everyday for each of the three cards this amounts to 3 messages per day and at a cost of $. 09 per message the cards are costing me almost $1.00 a day for these annoying reminder messages.

I am currently taking all efforts to cancel these cards and fill a formal complaint against Wal-Mart.

My family and I have been loyal customers but after this experience we are changing our shopping habits.in our area there are a lot of shopping options such as Target, Kohl's and Costco just to list a few. I believe we will be spending more time at the other stores and informing all of our friends and family about this horrible experience.
