I was informed on sept 3 2021 that meta bank had possession of 2 of my stimulus checks which they send out on a debit card by the IRS . WHEN I called meta bank they confirmed this and issued 2 cards that they sent out that day to be recievd by me on the 21st of same month. It is now the 29th of sept. And still no cards. When I call they say its out of their hands or the system keeps hanging up on me in the middle of the call. This is ridiculous. I am about to be evicted. They offer no help at all.Business response

I only received half of the Economic Impact Payment from Metabank. The IRS is stating that I received $**** for the stimulus funds but Metabank only issued me $***. I can never get a representative of Metabank on the phone when I call and when I reached out through email, it was less than helpful. Metabank asked me to provide the routing number, account number, and trace number of the payment from the IRS. The IRS replied to me by saying they would not know this information because it was Metabank who issued the payment. I get absolutely no help from Metabank to remedy this situation.Business response

One of our bank accounts was compromised to open a MetaBank account. We are working with our financial institution for a formal investigation. In the interim, our bank has encouraged us to contact MetaBank to help us determine when an account was opened up using our name and from where this fraud occurred. I have tried 10 different phone numbers listed for the bank to include a number listed with the *********** Downtown Chamber of Commerce and I still can't get a live bank representative on the line. The lines will automatically hang up, on an online chat from the supposed bank, I was asked to enter my credit card and pay $* to speak with someone. How can a financial institution insured by FDIC operate in ways that appear illegitimate or possibly fraudulent? I need a MetaBank Manager to phone me ASAP or I will also be filing a complaint with the FDIC. I need help with resolving the fraud that has taken place with this bank.Business response
