Direct Express violates FDIC regulations. We must come together for class action suit.
Update by user Jun 17, 2019

If you have made contact with any attorney which has or is representing victims of the Direct Express program, and the attorney cannot take your case, I suggest you hire an individual attorney for yourself and refer that attorney to Franklin Lemond (Atlanta) or Ronald...

I am currently dealing with Direct Express not refunding money back to me after I have been doubled billed for about a year now. The initial merchant was only able to refund me six months of my money back to me.

Direct express, had me fill out a form for a dispute, once I completed it, I contacted them to see if they received it.

They respond by telling me they dont have enough information and my claim has been denied. Is there a class action lawsuit still going on?

Wont give daughters heck from 8/1/22

1.0
First, I called direct express when I moved into my new home months ago... I received mail from them... yet on the first when it came time to receive my daughter's SSI check they tell me the cards expired, so I have them expedite the card and take the 13 off the money. 7 days later still no money when we call it tells us that the funds were sent back to sender. So I canceled the card called SS they told me to contact de to have funds sent back to SS, but direct express is giving me a hard time Tomorrow I will be calling SS, direct express and a lawyer if I do not get my daughter's check!

I got my Identity stolen because of DE

1.0
They won't answer the phones, I have been hung up on and put on hold for hours so I got frustrated and went elsewhere online to try and get a hold of this company. Long story short I went to what I thought was a business page of theirs and was scammed out of all of my information! I had to file a police report, freeze my SS profile with the government, freeze my credit reports and file a report with the FTC. If I was a wealthier man I'd sue the *** out of them This company needs to be investigated & shut down! WHY AREN'T THEY?

If you keep giving away personal information such as your address on a public website, you are just opening up yourself to be a victim of theft again. Just saying. Since you did not create an account, sadly you cannot edit out your address.

I cannot reach a live person to inquire as to where my father's new SS card is. When I go on line to see if there is a different number, I get some sort of sales pitch for a medical alert device. This is a federal program and SS recipients and their representatives deserve better from you. I am appalled at the lack of service.

My bills are due. Not able to pay or withdraw money because my card is locked. Been trying for 3 day to reach customer service. All I get is automatic message saying they're experiencing high call volume and then it hangs up. Talk about government controlling our money. Vote Repulican people.
