      My child support is going on a smione card. I have a problem with my daughter going in the computer and changing my information to get the money out. I'm guessing it's by phone or enternet. I called and complained so I was advised by them to set a pass word and 3 security questions. Evidently it didn't work because I checked my acct and she did it again. I called to let them know I wanted to change the child support to go to my bank and I was told my pass word and all the information I was giving was wrong which tells me she was able to bypass the security they so call set up and told me I can't get into that acct because the info I gave was wrong. Even to my social security number must was changed on it. They have very poor security that allows somebody else to go in your acct when so call barriers has been put in place.

      I was provided a smiONE card by NC child support. My card was wrongfully used by a vendor. I reported the incident to the fraud department and requested that my card not be deactivated. Today when trying to use my card to remove funds, smiONE placed an unauthorized block on my card without any form of verbal or written notification.
