Do not buy or get a Debit Card thru Walmart.
The debit cards are a product of the Green Dot company which is one of the major suppliers of prepaid Debit Cards for stores, etc.
When you get one of the debit cards thru Walmart they do not tell you any terms, etc. That you must meet in order to get your prepaid card that you already paid them for.
Once you pay for a prepaid Debit Card at Walmart you must go online or call a number to activate the card.
Warning,
Not everyone is approved, they do not tell you this when you purchase the card that not everyone gets approved.
Then the Green Dot company sends you a refund, they say within 7 to 10 days but I am still waiting on mine and its been a little over a week now.
You would be better off to go online and get a Wiredplastic card available on their website for Wiredplastic. And they send you a card and you can put money on it at any Western Union place and a lot of the check advance and cashing places also.
Or you can also get a Debit card thru Western Union by going online and applying and then they send you the card and you can put money on the card at any Western Union location.
I already have both of those cards but thought it would be nice to have one from Walmart also as they can put your paycheck funds on it. But I would not recommend anyone getting a prepaid card thru Walmart due to not everyone getting approved for it.
Does not make anysense at all, a prepaid card is just that, a prepaid card. Everyone should be approved for it as it has nothing at all to do with your credit, etc.
The Green Dot company is a big joke, do yourself a favor and check the back of any prepaid card for the Green Dot logo before you buy a card and do not buy any from the Green Dot company.
