Got this Mastercard prepaid Card, co-branded by a reputable Retailer and Bank.

On Christmas Shughulis, I swiped the Card but merchant said money didn't go through. So i paid cash lest i be embarrassed in front of my fundamentals.

Turns out that the card was debited for the transaction. Attempts to have the transaction reversed have not borne fruit for three weeks now.

Njaanuary is biting but i cannot access my money!

Has anyone experienced such frustrations? Does it make sense to have a prepaid card that just locks in your money while financing the Bankers?

@Kaka Sungush, yes I agree this plastic things need some good amount of heat to work. Happened to me towards the end of last year with $300 and I blazed through the phone at the bank, then checked my online balance and vuala! the balance has just appeared as it should have in the first place.

So the teeth can be fire breathed away but choose a good inflammable gas first.

I have used it four times for online purchases from Amazon, and international Pay TV. Worked well except for one case when their systems were down for about four hours, but I was able to complete the transaction thereafter.
