Card is not accepted in many places, while I called to enquire, very rude over the phone. They said they will block my card and they did . They refuse to give my money back lost about £217 on my card. scammers! Reviewed on: 16th July 2019

Monthly 99p charge not welcomed

1
They are now charging 99p per month for this cash card which is an annual fee of £12, £24 for 2yrs, £36 for 3yrs.. so on and so forth to go on top of your usual expenditure, so not worth keeping this card anymore. If you plan to use this card long-term, it would eat into your funds. On the other hand, it is helping them to cash in on those who are happy to pay this fee. There are better-prepaid cash cards out there, just go onto those Cash Card Comparison Sites and you'll find a better deal! Recommendations including and not limited to - - CashPlus Freedom - Revolut - see other alternatives available on those Comparison Sites... if you require a money transfer service, you can always use Western Union, I believe there are no fees to certain countries! Be a smarter cookie and look after your incy-wincy "pockit' money Reviewed on: 11th July 2019

Fraud

1
I've had this account for quite some time now, I don't use it slot as I found that slot of places seem to refuse it especially on line shops? Anyway yesterday I decided to log in and have a look only to find lots of transactions not made by me!! Money missing! There was a eBay transaction for 78 pence made over n over n over untill my money was gone plus loads of transactions tried to be made in America in various shops!! So to me this is fraud and someone has my details, I contacted pockit only for my complaints to basically be shrugged off!!! No we will look into it no sorry nothing except do you want us to close the account?? Well YES but you could have taken it abit serious instead of the matter of fact attitude I got when I said on there web site it says it keeps a eye on the transactions and informs you of anything strange is happening!! Well I live in Milton Keynes so purchases trying to be made in various county's would to me be a little bit strange!! After saying this to whoever I was speaking to he just stopped replying lool I don't even want money or anything but they seemed reluctant to help or look into it Reviewed on: 7th May 2019

0-STARS HELL ON EARTH

1
I wish I could give u 0-stars. This is hell treatment on earth. These guys closed my account after I complained to the financial ombudsman. They lied to me that they will refund my money and asked for bank details to send the refund. They are doing everything they can to frustrate me and not refund my money. Its beyond the 10 working days plus and u are fooling me that the finance is dealing with it. I AM GOING BACK TO THE FINANCIAL OMBUDSMAN the investigator asked to get back to her if they toss me around with the payment. Lee ,Mark, Samuel, Simone, Taylor, Steve, May God look upon u with absolute anger Reviewed on: 30th April 2019
