Walmart MASTERCARD Consumer Reviews

I disputed a charge which they credited to my account then months later they charged the disputed amount. The last representative didn’t mention that they might charge again “after investigation”. Even with a proper document that my card was stolen and used for fraud, the lady was firm to not credit it. She was rude and when I said I will cancel my card, no sympathy and didn’t try to win back. Guess they don’t care about loyalty anyway. I also had to re-order my replacement card three times because their delivery took more than a month when they said their ETA was 7-10 business days.

I call their customer service to discuss one charge on my credit card and they couldn't give me any information about it. I tried asking them to transfer me to their supervisor and he put me on hold for 20 minutes and came back and said the supervisor is busy and cannot take my call right now. I mean why make me wait if that's what you are going to say!!! They couldn't tell me what the charge was for which is ridiculous. I DO NOT recommend this credit card to anyone. Please do not apply Walmart Mastercard, the customer service awful!!!

I reluctantly signed up for the card at the cash since I was promised a $ 25 rebate on the next purchase. I never got the card, never got a statement, but finally, yesterday, I got a text saying I was behind in my payments. I only used it that first time because of course I couldn't because I didn't get the card. Two hours on the phone yesterday, being transferred here and there. Apparently, my unit number was missing from the application, although I carefully gave it. First-person on the phone fixed it. But then I was transferred over and over again. Final Department seems to be Security who wants to verify me. They wanted my address from 20 years ago. I gave it to them. They said they will call me back on my phone to verify it is me. I waited, the phone never range but got a voicemail from Walmart saying to call them back on the number on the back of my card. I don't have a card!!! Called again, transferred 4 times, got Security Department, he said he'd have to call back on my phone, never called back. On hold now for 45 minutes while Security is doing??? I just want to pay the bill and then quietly cancel the card. What a mess.

Horrible customer service, they have zero knowledge and they are very rude. They also have ridiculous rules, my card was worn out and I requested a new card, they said they will deactivate my old card right away when I request for a new card that means I will be stuck with no credit card for almost 2 months until I get the new card in the mail. Also, I had some big amount of credit back to my credit card (refund of 9000$) and when I asked if I can cash it out, the customer service representative had no idea what I was talking about. She didn’t know anything and she was extremely rude. Also, I had to deal with fraud from the cheap air company and I wanted to put the amount ($1700) on the dispute and they said because it was more than 30 days ago, they can’t do anything about it. Very disappointed and will never recommend them to anyone. Worst Desjardin Insurance!

I use my card to book an online hotel by booking.com but unpaid cash at the property. After 3 months I found out that the customer service called me and said I have some balance didn't pay it. I told him am not using it but I will pay it's only 50$ and I went to Walmart shopping center and I paid it after 4months I received a call they told me that I still owe 678$ in my balance to them and I have to pay it. Then I told them I didn't use it! After they check my account they found out some online dating! Obviously, someone hacked my card and start using it in some online dating and porn websites. I told them to block my card so they can't use it. Also if something unusual happening especially if it's an online website they should inform me or notified me about it. if I confirmed it that's means I use it. If not they should block the website! But with Walmart Mastercard, they didn't care and let it happen. Now I owe them $1023 + interest which I didn't use it or consume it and yet still sending me statement they want me to pay it. The worst customer service, worst problem solving, worst company! I recommend everyone read this comment stay away from this company! You gonna regret it that you choose Walmart Mastercard!

So I applied for the Walmart Rewards MasterCard and was instantly approved. I was so happy, then after using the card for a few weeks, I get a call from their security department stating that he was looking over my credit report and I owed some other companies money... Then he said I need verification documents faxed in, I faxed them the same day. On March 3 Rd they said 5-10 business days to verify the documents. I waited and waited for a phone call, still nothing. I called them every day and every time it's something new. They tried to change the date of the documents arriving from the 3rd to the 9th, they kept saying 5 business days and then it would pass and then they said another 5 business days etc. I have been waiting for over a month and still no phone call. I make it a point to bother them as much as possible because if they didn't like my credit report it shouldn't have excepted me in the first place. It is disheartening especially since I'm in the process of fixing my credit and have invested a lot of money to do so. They are horrible at answering the phone and I would suggest not even applying for it at all. It is the worst headache and they are very judgemental and rude when you call them to ask if they are doing there job. It seems like a way to pick and choose after people have been approved and also I'm pretty sure none of these people live in Canada... They don't like their job and they are horrible at it. So please don't ever get this MasterCard. I will be making reviews on YouTube and making it well known to the world about this stupid card.

Indeed an expensive lesson makes sure you triple check transactions past 30 days if you miss fraudsters charging your card Walmart Mastercard will not do a thing. Buyer beware If your card is stolen you will be waiting a long time on hold before your call is answered. It should be zero-star review.

I was approved online for a Walmart MasterCard. I received a call saying there was a security issue. My account was placed on hold so I could verify my identity and address.
I was given the runaround for 2 weeks with the most ignorant, unprofessional security department and customer service I have ever dealt with.
I was told to call back numerous times and then told they could not give me a time limit on when my information would be reviewed.
I have 2 other credit cards and have never experienced something like this. I cancelled the account and was told I could not apply for another Walmart card for 6 months.
Don't see a problem there.
Horrible company

Rude customer service.
These guys are so incompetent they wouldn't even investigate fraud. I lost money on this card guys hope you guys wouldn't make the same mistake.

I like to maintain good credit and I am choosy as to which credit cards I apply for and how often I apply in order to protect my credit rating. I thought the WalMart Rewards MasterCard would be a good fit as we do the majority of our grocery shopping at Walmart and I liked the idea of earning points towards purchases. Had I known the hassle it would involve to obtain the card or the horrible customer service I would receive in the process, I most definitely wouldn’t have put a dent in my credit applying for this card and would not have applied at all. After being approved “instantly” at WalMart.ca, I came to find that was not at all the case at all. A few days after applying, I received a phone call from MasterCard saying there was a security issue with my card and to call in. I thought that was strange as I hadn’t even received my cards (one for me, one for my husband) in the mail yet. Upon calling in and talking to the security department, they told me they needed further documentation to prove my identity and gave me a fax number. They requested two pieces of mail, such as utility bills, confirming my address along with a recent tax assessment. I went ahead and forwarded documentation and was to expect to hear from them within the next 10 days. Strangely enough, in the meantime, my cards arrived in the mail. When I called to activate them, I was put through to the security department again and was told they wanted a different tax assessment as I gave them 2017 instead of 2018. Along with the 2018 tax assessment, they also wanted copies of my driver’s license and more utility bills to confirm my address. Ok(?). This was all ridiculous to me as I’ve been at the same address going on 20 years, which could have been verified when they did my initial credit check. Anyhow, I went along with it and faxed it in the second set of documentation. Fast forward a month. I hadn’t heard anything from MasterCard. I was told I’d hear from them within 10 days so I went ahead and called in so I could check the status of my cards. What a mistake! I got the rudest, most demeaning customer service representative that I’ve ever dealt with. Seriously. As I tried to explain the situation he would cut me off, talk over me, and tell me there wasn’t anything he could do but pass it along to someone else. Alright. I asked him what to do next, what is the process, etc. He got irritated with my questions and began raising his voice to the point of shouting. I asked him why he was being angry with me and he told me because I was treating him like an idiot! Pardon me? I was only trying to get him to explain what was going on. Wow. Anyhow, I ended the conversation as he continued to escalate. I calmed myself and called back having decided enough was enough and wanting to have them cancel everything. I got a different rep so calmly tried to explain what had happened up until that point with the application and all the faxes I had sent. She told me I needed to fax in more documentation again. I asked which ones and she told me I needed to send in my most recent tax assessment. I told her I had done that over a month ago, along with my driver’s license and more utility bills. She said they haven’t received them yet. I told her that it was strange as I had a copy of a fax verification from when I sent the paperwork in. Now she started to get snotty and asked me what I wanted her to do about it. I told her that I understood she couldn’t personally do anything about it but what is it they want me to do next. She said I needed to fax the documentation to them again. Omg. Now I was frustrated and told her to just go ahead and cancel the application altogether, I’ve done everything they’ve asked over the last few months and it wasn’t worth troubling myself over any further. Unbelievable. I have never had such a problem trying to acquire a credit card, nor have I ever dealt with such awful customer service. And throughout all of this, I noticed that they didn’t only do a credit check, they also have placed their credit card on my list of active credit cards at the credit bureau! How can they list it as an issued, active card when I haven’t even had any access to it? That’s beyond my comprehension. So my credit score took a hit for something I don’t have and never will have. Thanks, Walmart MasterCard, such a pleasure doing business with you. My advice? Run. Don’t walk. Run. I’ve been dealing with various credit cards for the last 30 years and have never seen anything as remotely impossible as this situation has been. Get yourself a regular, bank-issued, low rate card and save yourself the hassle. So not worth it.
