Is RushCard legit?

No longer trading

RushCard was a genuine prepaid Visa card, but the program is over: every account was closed on June 29, 2023. If money was left on your card, it was meant to come back as a check mailed to your address on file, and pay sent after June 16 went back to the sender.

What we checked

  • Co-founded by Russell Simmons
  • Part of Green Dot from 2017
  • Card was issued by Pathward

Watch out for

  • A balance left on your card after June 28, 2023, where the promised check never reached you.
  • A paycheck or benefit payment sent to your RushCard after June 16, 2023, that you cannot trace.
  • A dispute or unauthorized charge you reported before the closure that was never settled.

Still waiting for your RushCard balance check?

We help you write it and it gets its own public page, so others checking RushCard find it first.

How do I reach RushCard customer service?

RushCard no longer has a customer service team of its own: Green Dot, the company that managed the card, ended the program and closed every RushCard account on June 29, 2023, and the RushCard website no longer loads. Questions about a balance check, a deposit sent after the cut-off or an old transaction now go to Green Dot, and statements for the closed account have to be requested from Green Dot in writing. Have the name on the account, the last four digits of the card, the address on file and any earlier reference numbers ready. Do not trust phone numbers from random search results: prepaid card scams are common.

Balance check from your closed RushCard never arrived? Start your complaint here and we help you write it up fast, drawing on thousands of complaint letters that actually worked.

What can I do if my RushCard is blocked or my funds are on hold?

Every RushCard is now out of use: Green Dot closed all accounts on June 29, 2023, and purchases and ATM withdrawals stopped after June 28. Money left on a card was to be mailed back by check within 45 days of the closure to the address on file, and direct deposits sent after June 16, 2023 were rejected and returned to the sender. If your card was blocked or your funds were on hold when the program ended, write to Green Dot with the name on the account, the last four digits of the card, the balance you expect and the address the account had on file, and ask what happened to that balance. If wages or benefits were sent to the card after the cut-off, ask your employer or benefits agency whether the payment came back to them.

Balance from a closed RushCard still missing? A complaint filed through our complaint process adds pressure: we push it out by email, social media and printed letters.

How do I dispute an unauthorized charge on my RushCard?

New charges can no longer reach a RushCard: the program ended and every account closed on June 29, 2023. For an unauthorized charge from before the closure that was never settled, write to Green Dot, the company that managed the card, say that you disputed the charge as unauthorized and when, and give the amount, the date, the merchant name and any claim number you were given. Attach the statements and screenshots you kept, because the closed account can no longer be viewed online.

Why has my replacement RushCard not arrived?

No replacement RushCard will arrive any more: replacement cards could only be ordered until May 24, 2023, and Green Dot closed every RushCard account on June 29, 2023. What you can still chase is the balance. Money left on the card after June 28, 2023 was to be mailed back by check within 45 days to the address on file, so if you had moved, or the check never came, write to Green Dot with the name on the account, the last four digits of the card, the old and new address and the balance you expect. Describe the whole saga in your complaint here, where other former cardholders still waiting for their money can back your case up.

So far consumers reported 375 complaints about RushCard here, with an average rating of 1.1 out of 5. The most common themes: cardholders locked out of their own funds, unauthorized charges, money held or missing, replacement cards that take too long to arrive, and customer service that is hard to reach when it matters most.

What happens after I submit my complaint?

Your complaint gets its own public page on Complain.biz and we get to work: we bring it to the attention of RushCard through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal.

And we stay with it after you file. Our trained AI opens a case file for you and keeps coaching: what to reply, when to push again, and how to escalate if nothing happens.

Can other consumers help me with my RushCard complaint?

Yes. We have an active community of consumers, and complaints here are public: people who ran into the same problem with RushCard can give you advice or back you up with their own story. A complaint with a community behind it is much harder to overlook.
