Pockit Account reviews (573)

Great

Have held card for two years. No issues. Like almost instant statement . Use Pockit for everyday shop contactless payments Reviewed on: 10th June 2017

An absolute disgrace.

My experience with Pockit has been a NIGHTMARE. They are treating me like an idiot. I lost £150, my shopping money at an ATM machine on Sunday 28th May. The Link machine providers say its the responsibility of the bank to sort it. That's a joke... I have been phoning and emailing ever since to try to sort it. They refuse to discuss it with me, and have blocked my account. The people I have spoken with are condescending and patronising and because I am an OAP, and not good with technology treat me as if I'm totally stupid. I cannot afford to lose this money, and why should I? I will fight them until I get it back. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Beware. ROBBERS/LIARS

My names Martin Dunn, this Company is in the middle of trying to steal £300 on me, from the 4th May they have been trying. They have made up 6 different stories as i was able to prove them wrong the first 5 times but I really cant be annoyed anymore. I am actually letting them steal my £300, it was my sons money too!! Company really needs shut down, they reply to these reviews to make it look like they want to help, then you contact them and they are cheeky again and make up more lies. I have been lied to be Kieran, Joshua, Mafalda and Laura now. Reviewed on: 22nd May 2017

Avoid Pockit...They get the money and never debit them into your account

I had the worst experience of my life. This company (God know if this is a company or not) is a complete joke! I transfered £100 from my bank account, so I can start using the card while on holidays. IT's been a month and I still can't see my money. I have given them 2 options: either return my money into my bank acc or debit my pockit acc. Nothing has happened. It's been a month and I think they are playing games. It is a complete mess. WAKE UP PEOPLE. They are using our money to make profit and they dont care about their customers. I will file a complaint with FOS and I swear they will be begging me to stop going after them... useless people Reviewed on: 4th May 2017

Absolutely awful non existent customer service

I opened a pocket account in October last year, transferred £200. This took a few weeks to reach the pockit card for some reason. I was unable to get hold of anyone at pockit and when I did they were extremely rude and unhelpful. Still trying to resolve this issue. Reviewed on: 26th April 2017

Avoid Pockit please!

Pockit do not deserve a single star, they nearly ruined my cousins life, issue with money going into the wrong account but money was not refunded and he couldn't pay his rent. Its been going on for 3 months and Pockit keeps coming up with all sort of ridiculous stories, can someone please advise on who we can report to please! Reviewed on: 21st April 2017

Missing funds

Initially, for a couple of years, I was delighted with this card. Topped up £20-40 each month by direct debit. Then, this winter, they started charging to top up this way and insisted it had to be via bank transfer to stay free. First bank transfer smooth. The 2nd went missing. Taken from my bank but not in Pockit account even 15 days later. Customer services via email are SHOCKINGLY bad. I would now recommend AGAINST taking out this card, from previously being happy with it Reviewed on: 5th April 2017

Scam alert

Joined.Got email stating.Your 99p payment is successful.No card came.Total Scam. Reviewed on: 31st March 2017

Avoid - disturbing developments

I have had my pockit card for about 3 years and it was just used as a lunch card, I'd top up about £30 a month so always had something in my work wallet. No problems apart from the slow clearing of funds but then last month my BAC transfer went missing. Same bank account and details as per all my other loads. First, I was told system error, then funds are in account but not showing on statement, tried using card but rejected. I've sent them proof of payment but now they want my bank account details, they're not having that for £30! I find it very suspicious that they can't find the payment and the fault is clearly theirs. Fortunately, I've just missed out on a few lunches but anybody thinking of getting a pockit card or uploading a lot of money should urgently reconsider. Reviewed on: 24th March 2017

I've had this card since October, but have only recently decided to try and load it from my debit card without success. I sent my verification documents to Pockit in October, but apparently the documents are still being processed! I have tried to contact them by email twice (no response four days later) and phone several times and am now fed up with trying to get in touch. This is truly a terrible company and I'm glad I found out before I parted with any of my hard earned money. Reviewed on: 20th March 2017
