GARBAGE! Bought card and was drained 5 minutes later

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Bought a $100 card from Walmart. Activated it.

Went to use 15 minutes after buying and declined.

Looked online and 5 minutes after purchase at Walmart, it was drained by a "Hospital" in Dubai...

You can no longer register the card with a postal code to avoid this exact sort of online fraud! PURE SCAM!!

So hey, I went to Walmart like couple hours ago and when I went to Walmart, I bought something and when I bought it, I had the visa fellow gift card and I bought it with that gift card and right now when I went to them, I went to return the gift because the gift was not working. It was broken so when I returned it, they said we might not be able to send the money back to the court and when I got there and they told me about that and I said, can you guys do it and they said we cant do it and they said we could try and I said sure we could try And like when I check my balance on the card it says zero but I have the receipt and everything that says that I refunded my money, but the car does not have the money, but I have the paper and everything that says the money shouldve been refund to my card. I dont know whats going on, but can you guys help me I would appreciate if you guys really help me because its not a little money is a lot of money And I have family to feed at home

This company is a scam wasn’t even a full 24 hours until my card was stolen online with no trace and sneakily said it was being used from Ontario but I live in a whole different province tried calling

I bought my card at an Irving gas station on December 16th. I activated the card later that night, then tried getting PayPal to work with the card.

The next day, I woke up, and $118 was spent on my card in a different province, so I need a refund. I tried calling multiple times; they refuse to try and help me and just tell me it was me when I have proof it wasn't me on their own website.

My balance has disappeared from a new card, I can’t find the money

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Thank you for asking! Due to issues with my bank, I had to temporarily buy prepaid cards to use on TT.

1Xx50$ Sun. 1X50$ Mon. 1X 50$Tu so Id have TT coins to enjoy while off work! Its been ruined!

And on top of it, Im still out the 50$ Tuesday! Took my 48.20$ from my card! But I have no coins! Had to make several calls, attempts online and even back at store!

Only to find out, my $ is on hold. AND UNTIL OCTOBER 28!! Im so angry! That shouldnt be legal!

Just refuse the transaction! That way I WOULD AT LEAST HAVE MY CASH! A 7 day hold on a 50$ non refillable card, is ridiculous and insulting to me! Shouldnt have been refused to begin with!

BUT TO REFUSE TO GIVE ME MY PURCHASE, BUT DARE TO KEEP MY 50$ FROM ME, FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK. IS INSULTING! Ive never seen any app nor platform who doesnt want my money! I work hard and just wanted to enjoy my days off supporting friends on TT!

Its my fun, my social interactions, it breaks up the loneliness!! IM 58 years old, and your actions ruined my planned fun weekend with my friends! I will make darn sure to NOT BUY VANILLA. Prepaid EVER AGAIN!

( I dropped 150 in less than 48 hours, and this is how Im treated!?

Ok then! NEVER AGAIN VANILLA CARDS!

User's recommendation: Do BETTER! 1. Make it easier to contact humans in customer service! I wasted a few hours trying by ll means possible, to figure out what happened to my money! Thats unacceptable! I’d love to understand in your current mentality, WHO DO YOU CLAIM TO BE PROTECTING BY CONFISCATING AND HÔLDING ….MY MONEY?! THE ENTIRE RESON FIR BUYING THEM IS TO BE ABLE TO SAFELY ADD TT coins to us for entertainment during my 3 days off! AAT LEAST IF YOU HADNT STOLE MY CASH, I could’ve used MY CASH, to do something else for myself. But nope! Yall played me dirty! Still off my last day, until 2pm Thursday. But can’t do a *** thing bcz I have zero tt coins, and zero cash to find something else to do. MY BLOOD IS CURRENTLY BOILING! OBVIOUSLY I PAY CASH WHEN BUYING TO USE ONLINE!!! IM OBVIOUSLY NOT GOING TO LINK MY BANK CARD TO THE VANILLA

I would like a replacement to an expired card sent out

My prepaid visa has expired. I called the number on the back of the card.

The number brought me to a recording that informed me I need to go to the website to request a replacement. The website does not have an option to replace it, although it did state that I could replace it by calling customer service. I called customer service.

It was the same recording that does not allow you to speak to anyone or request a replacement card. So frustrating.

Original review Jul 21, 2025
Bonjour,
Le 20 juillet, j'ai effectué un achat avec ma carte prépayée Vanilla sur le site Squibler.io.
Le montant de 75,20 $ a été retiré de ma carte, et la transaction est marquée comme terminée sur votre site.
Toutefois, le commerçant Squibler a affiché un message d'erreur indiquant que le paiement a échoué (Payment failure), et je n'ai reçu aucun service ou produit.
Pouvez-vous m'aider à : confirmer si le paiement a bien été complété, lancer une enquête ou un remboursement si le commerçant ne l'a pas encaissé, ou me dire comment contester la transaction.
Merci beaucoup, [Nathan Bouchard]
Les 4 derniers chiffres de ta carte Vanilla : 1044
Date de la transaction : 20 juillet
Montant exact : 75,70 $
Nom du commerçant : Squibler.io
Merci,
Nathan
