What can ya do? NOTHING

[wanda5]

Can I just gripe about being double charged? Well i'm going to...I use one credit card that I can load to play with and I load as I go. SO last saturday I loaded $95 & deposited $94 in to Gaming Club and then today I loaded $75 & I got rejected when I tried to deposit $74! SO I went to my netspend statement and it said I was neg $20!!There is ANOTHER transaction that is trying to go through for another $95! I'm so glad I am doing the load as I go or I never would have caught this. But the real pisser now (that yall can relate to) is that I cant play! Kyle went out with the guys and i'm stuck home with nothing to do... I was all excited to play and they cant even try to fix it until Monday...such a bunch of crap and I just wanted to vent but also tell yall, WATCH YOUR FREAKIN STATEMENTS. I know it may not be the casinos fault so im not getting bitchy with them *yet. But its someone BESIDES me screwing up...so again, watch those statements. Good luck and have fun!

Seems like we all hit the iceberg with our titanic cards! Netspend blames 3Dice (the casino I used it at), and vice versa. Someone needs to provide us proof or this may be a rogue processor for whatever reason. I won't be reloading until the news gets better. I would think losing all the money would motivate them to fix this fast. What are they thinking??

You make a very good valid point there pacers about the Processor which in fact may or could be the case since they would definitely want to make "doubly sure"...no pun intended...that they do in fact do not get stiffed for the money or transaction fees due them...

(it's been going on for a looong time and i finally got sick of netspend!)

Does Netspend allow you to have more than one card? If you request a card from their website, they ask for your social security #...I'm assuming they're going to ask for this when you go to activate a card purchased at a store as well.

One of the many things that freak me out about it is that its not like a week later a machine is going to randomly charge your card AGAIN. So someone would deliberately have to go in and charge it... right? I mean in my business if someone pays with a cc it gets charged and the transaction is over....even if you are declined, the transaction is OVER. Theres not a person negotiating on the other end. Scary chit going on.

I appreciate yalls input and it really sux that this is obviously a big problem and not a new one. Who has time to do all the BS that comes along with SOMEONE ELSES "mistake" Yeah I look forward to scanning, faxing & corrsponding with these a-holes for hours just to get my own damn money back.

Hey all, just got an email at my netspend online page. They tell me the reason the ghost charges haven't dropped off is because they are GAMBLING RELATED transactions. ummm, I don't get it??? The VISA sponsored company that takes in deposits with it's cards, but makes you wait awhile so they can fix their own FUps?!?! What the hell does gambling related activity have to do with them fixing bogus charges? This is becoming a major screw up for this card issuer. Talk about chasing your customers away! Somebody over at netspend or 3D needs to wake up and realize that this one will cost the bottom line terribly.

Well if that is the case then it's the Processors fault for Coding the transaction as such...that's the only way that I know of that most credit card companies can pick up on the fact that it is Gambling Related, is by the way the Transaction is coded...
