While speaking with you, our agent provided you with the information you needed to have the funds released. The requested documentation was received and approved on April 25, 2024, and the funds were released back to your smiONE card account the same day.

      My card was shut off by smione they reported it as stolen which my card was not infact stolen. I've been waiting over two weeks for a card. When I called they told me my card was never sent. This is ridiculous to cancel someone's card for no reason and then not even send a new card.

      On March 15, 2024, you emailed smiONE regarding a transaction that you stated you did not authorize. smiONE is committed to protecting our customers from fraud. Upon processing your email, the smiONE **************** temporarily blocked your card to protect the remaining funds. Our agent responded to your email advising you of this temporary block and requested that you contact **************** so we could verify some information with you. The following day, another email was received from you regarding the status of your card. Our agent responded to your email advising you a second time of the temporary block that we placed on your account and requested that you contact ****************. Due to the nature of your emails, we needed to speak with you directly for security purposes.

      We were pleased to see that a **************** Supervisor was able to further assist you with a courtesy activation on April 1, 2024. At the end of this activation period, your card was automatically replaced via standard shipping to the address on file. Our records show that you can expect your new card to be delivered between April 7, 2024, and April 10, 2024.

      We appreciate your patience as we conducted our review. smiONE would like to apologize for any hardships that we have contributed to, and we hope that we can restore your trust in **.

      At the time of the first replacement on February 22, 2024, an agent updated your profile with a custom shipping address and replaced your card via standard shipping, at your request. On March 7, 2024, you reported that you did not receive this card. The agent updated your profile with a new custom shipping address and replaced your card via express shipping, at your request. Due to an internal error, this card order was shipped to the primary address on file in ****. We sincerely apologize for this error and the misinformation you received. Feedback and additional training have been provided to prevent this from happening in the future.

      We were pleased to see that our Customer Relations Coordinator was able to connect with you on March 20, 2024, and addressed your concerns.

      SmiOne allowed multiple charges, when, I only submitted for one transaction. They allowed the other transactions to keep taking money after the pre authorized amount was already taken. Once it took ****** for the transaction, SmiOne allowed transactions per individual item concurrent. Then, they slot the ****** in 59$, and 62$ respectively. This put my account in negative. I reported the card lost or stolen. They sent a new card in the mail about 5 days after, still haven't received it. They did not freeze my account like I requested. They continued allowing transactions, and declibed card fees. Then, I still haven't received the new card, and bank already has that card activated. This is too much stress for little money that we have. I need my child's money back. You all are a disgrace, and Liars.

      Business response

      04/23/2024

      We apologize for the confusion. In this context, an authorization hold, or preauthorization, is a way for merchants in the e-commerce sector to reserve a certain amount of funds in a customers account to ensure the funds are available for processing once the item/s are shipped. When the transaction settles, the amount charged is adjusted to reflect the final cost per shipment. If there are multiple items in your order, it can result in several shipments.

      The authorization hold you described was voided in full to your smiONE card account on March 12, 2024, and settled as two separate transactions,indicating two shipments. Our records show that you reported your card stolen on March 12, 2024, through the smiONE automated system and the card was shipped to the address on file via standard shipping on March 15, 2024. We expected that card to be delivered between March 20, 2024- March 22, 2024. On March 27,2024, you reported the card stolen a second time through our automated system. This new card was shipped to the same address on file via standard shipping on April 1, 2024. We were pleased to see this card was activated on April 9, 2024.

      During this time, there were several transactions attempted to the stolen card. These transactions were declined as you had already reported the card stolen. When a card is reported lost or stolen, it is automatically retired and can no longer be used to make purchases or withdrawals. Your card account was not assessed any fees as the result of the transactions attempted to the retired card.  

      If we can answer any other questions about your smiONE card account,our **************** Agents are here for you 24 hours a day at **************.You can also write to us at P.O. *******************************

      I ordered at ****** online, the card accepted the transaction, and took the money. The items shipped at different times, again, the card was charged, different times per delivery. I was charged twice for the items, and I haven't gotten back my money from m the first transaction. Same thing happened with Target, and I'm being charged 3 times for the same items. I need my money back that SmiOne allowed, and supposedly put on authorization hold, and my account doesn't reflect, but, the incoming deposits doesn't align with the transactions. I need my money back.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I did not authorize the charges on the dates indicated above. My card number was taken from someone who did not have the right to use it at all. Since then I AUTHORIZED THE 108.00$ charge to Cash App. I put the money in myself and deleted her card number. She does not have my card number, I ordered a new card. I give ***** her child support from her dad to buy clothes and shoes. That particular date 2/9/2024, I DID NOT authorize charges in the amount of ***** at all. That money is needed for my bills. I would appreciate if you could give me a provisional credit. I do not appreciate unauthorized charges not done by me.

      I filed a dispute with SMIone. Within a day of me filing the dispute, they came back with a decline on the transactions being done due to the fact that the correct pin number was used. I filed an appeal because that's the whole definition of fraud is they know your information and they use it. A woman called me and let me know that a phone call was made to ask to increase the limit. That is what I realize that it was my mother who took my card and you used it without permission. They asked me if I've ever given my mother permission in the past to use my card. I said yes in the past but I did not give her permission to use it this time. Due to the fact that I had given her permission in the past they declined my dispute again. I will not be getting a refund for the money I didn't use even though they didn't know that she had permission from me. They said that because I did not know notify them that she no longer was authorized to use the card. They're declining my dispute. Excuse me, you guys didn't know she was authorized to use the card in the first place until I told you. So me being honest caused me not to get the money back that I didn't even use. If it wasn't for my child support coming to this card I would never ever use them and I definitely aren't recommending them. In order to get my money back I should have lied and now I have to file charges on my own mother as well as figure out how to feed my kids and not loose my house because they came with BS about me not calling them to let them know she couldn't use my card when I never called to let them know she could it BS. I not only got screwed by my mother but SMIone as well

      The dispute process can be an inconvenient and frustrating experience. The smiONE Dispute Team strives to streamline the dispute process while delivering exceptional customer service to eliminate as much of that frustration as we can. We appreciate your feedback and the chance to improve our services.

      Our records show that a dispute was initiated on February 5,2024. During the investigation, compelling evidence was found to support the final resolution, dated February 9, 2024. The evidence in this initial ruling did not include the prior authorization of your mother to use your smiONE card. At your request, an appeal was opened the same day. Due to no new information being provided, the previous ruling was upheld, and the appeal claim was denied. If you would like to discuss the final ruling further or if you would like to request a copy of the investigation documents, the smiONE Dispute Team is here to help you Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM CST/ 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM EST.

      5. Authorized Card Users
      You are responsible for all authorized transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of your Card.

      When I filed my dispute SMI one had no idea that I had given my mother permission in the past to use my card one time. Which on turn their defense of because I gave her permission in the past this dispute is not valid and I am responsible. *** one also said that because I didn't notify them that she didn't have permission I am responsible. How am I supposed to notify them of something I never notified them of in the beginning? The only reason they know it happened one time on the past is because I was honest and told them when they asked, if I had said no then the dispute would have been valid.

But once I say hey you sent me the correspond and saying this is the reason even though you guys didn't know. So that doesn't make any sense now of a sudden it's over.

      We apologize for the confusion. In this context, the term high-risk does not solely refer to a transactions dollar amount. A combination of factors is considered when determining the potential fraud risks associated with completing a transaction.

      One of the contributing factors we found during our review was multiple attempts to use an invalid PIN at both businesses. Please give us a call at your convenience if you need help resetting your PIN. If a dispute is needed for the online purchases you referenced, the smiONE Dispute Team is here to help you Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM CST/ 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM EST.

      Sincerely,

      The smiONE Team

      I am rejecting this response because they are a deceitful company.  I never used a pin.  Anything to keep the clients child support money from them!   Never use this illegitimate company.

      Sincerely,

      I filed a dispute with smiONE on 12/16/2023 totaling $1,190.16 for fraudulent transactions (from 10/22-4/23) on a prepaid card that receives child support payments. Firstly, my son was 30 years old when the payments began. I had no reason to suspect that I had received payments! I didn't know that I had been issued a smiOne card. That card was stolen and used at different stores and online. To this day, I have not spent any of the money deposited on the smiOne card. I don't trust this company because they rejected my claim to refund the money that was obviously stolen. After creating an account, the inbox had more than 50 notifications from smiOne declining transactions, over four months, for exceeding the balance at the time of the attempted purchases. To me, the declinations should have signaled that there was a problem as an authentic card owner would know the balance before making a purchase. In addition, the declinations were repetitive -- several times per day and minutes apart. After six months, the fraudulent activity stopped. Once I learned of the child support payments (5 months later) from the father, I set up an automatic deposit through the Ohio Child *************************** I still didn't know anything about smiOne and the fraud until I tried to access the remaining balance and needed to request a replacement card. Needless to say, I haven't activated the new smiOne card or used those funds -- I don't trust this company.

      The company asked me to submit a police report and I did. According to them, the police report will confirm that I did not make the fraudulent purchases and boost my claim. Thus, I filed it the next day, 1/23/24, and I have not heard from smiOne. Interestingly, the representative admitted that the number of transactions declined in rapid succession should have triggered their fraud alert system but it failed in my case.
