New Walmart MC Website is Lacking Info and No one Cares to Listen!

by Erica Kim on Feb 12, 2022
2 out of 5 stars

When Walmart Mastercard updated its website, some changes made were good, and some NOT.

The previous Walmart MC website always had on the left column the following info:
Current Balance, Min Due, Credit Limit etc. If you were trying to balance by viewing past transactions, seeing your current balance helped. No matter what you were viewing, that info could always be seen.
With the New Walmart MC website, this info is only available on the main page and once you leave that page, you better have memorized it all. If you were trying to balance and forgot what your Current Balance was, you would have to leave the page you are on, go back to the main page, and start all over.
I have emailed Walmart Customer Service about this issue, and they told me they have nothing to do with the Walmart MC website and to contact the Credit Card Customer Support. So I messaged them, and they also said they do not take care of this and referred me back to Walmart. No one wants to take the initiative to help or refer me to the right place.
Why could they not have your Current Balance available when viewing transactions, up on top in the shaded blue part? There is plenty of space. So frustrating when you are trying to balance.
Why will no one LISTEN!

Worst credit card ever

by Larry Maydonik on Mar 13, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

I have had this card for just under a year and I am now giving up on it. Customer service does not exist and communicating with customer service is impossible.
Initially they promised $10 to go paperless. Their website wouldn't allow me to go paperless. When I clicked on "GO PAPERLESS"....nothing would come up.
I pay my monthly charges like clockwork before they are due. However on two purchases my card was rejected due to slow approval by mastercard.
I finally was able to go paperless....but now my $10 incentive has never been provided.
My last grip is that every new card holder is confined to a $1000 credit limit, within the first 12 months. It meant I had to make two monthly payments in order to not be locked out. My other cards all provide limits for over $10,000. Good bye Walmart Mastercard !!!!!!

A fax machine in 2021?

by Wallyworld on Mar 12, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

I set up an online account so I could check the balance on my new card like every other card out there. Unlike any other card out there, Walmart then cuts off access to your online account until you FAX (yes, I said fax - if you were born after 1987 you can google what a FAX is) them 2 more pieces of ID - because I REALLY want to FAX copies of my ID to a machine that has been obsolete since 1983 AND makes copies of my ID for anyone passing by to see/take home. Of course, Walmart does not advise you of any of this and when you try to log in the error message on the website states, "we are unable to access your account please try again later" when the reality is you could try a zillion times and it would never work because they want more ID... Anyways - I paid off my balance, cashed in the $50 in incentives I got for signing up and then reported the card stolen and never activated the new one.

Don't Opt! Extremely Bad Customer Service

by Sid on Jan 31, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

I am trying to register my Walmart Mastercard online on their website. Unable to complete it every after trying 4 different times on different dates. Their customer call center is a joke. They don't solve any of your problems and keep transferring to the next department ultimately cutting the call. DON'T OPT.

I hate the new website

by MW on Aug 10, 2021
3 out of 5 stars

I used to like Walmart credit card as I shop often there and collect points. Then use the points for more groceries there. But after the new website is launched, I started to hate it.
The new website is designed for people with vision problems only - big words with very few lines on one page. You have to do many clicks in order to access those features that was only 1 click in the previous version.
I started to wane off from this credit card now.

SERVICE & SYSTEM PART 1

by Upset Customer on Jun 25, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

1. Got this card for my teenage kid, tried 3 times to activate text alert/notification, NEVER works.
2. Only received a paper statement a couple of times, NEVER received any paper/email again since then.
3. Tried 3 nights to check balance/statement online (Jun 21 - 23) in order to pay, NEVER works.
4. Tried to call customer service (Jun 23) after 10 hours of work but customer care closed, hope to talk to someone as payment is due, pressed lost/stolen dept but then card was blocked automatically without even anyone talked to me (I had and have cards of other banks, never had that happened!). The automated message said someone will call within 24 hours but NOTHING happened ..... To Be Cont'd

Website is a pain!

by Need a new webmaster on May 22, 2021
3 out of 5 stars

Upon viewing previous statements on the internet, my most recent statement showed 'No statement available'!
What does that mean?
Called customer service and they clarified indicating has not yet been generated. Wait another day.
Fine, but it would have avoided a phone call had the message said this instead of what it actually did. For a while, I thought my card was cancelled!
Many confusing items on this website, why is it necessary to show both pending and approved transactions for the same transaction? Very confusing.
Difficult to navigate the site, almost found it impossible to find 'Previous statements'. The webmaster needs to improve navigation.

Stay Away

by ARS on May 12, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

Stay Away - Long Story, short!
1) This card will charge you fees for services that you never asked or requested for like $3 or $4 every month for something or the other. It's not huge but once you are being charged every month it is difficult to get hold of them to ask what is it for.

2) Poor customer service - They will keep you on hold for long, then hill transfers to supervisor then another supervisor and then another.

3) Difficult in understanding transactions - Once you review your account, the transactions mentioned should be easy to understand, so that you know where you have to spend money. But nope, they use short forms which makes it so difficult for you to understand that where you have spent the money.

Very bad experience.

Below average service

by Sunafi on Sep 13, 2020
2.5 out of 5 stars

Good basic card with the worst service. With this card, customers can use rewards once the amount reaches $5. Worst service - so many disappointments! 1. They upgraded the website - that’s the biggest disappointment as it’s very inconvenience to a user; one can review only 3 or 4 transactions (laptop screen can accommodate only these many as a transaction has so much width gap from other) to see other one needs to scroll up or down; 2) Customer service is below average. I had to call 3 times to get reissue additional card and every time I was promised I would get in the next 7 to 10 business days. 3) Online messaging communication is not helpful. You send any message they respond by identical message - "sorry, this can’t be answered, please reach us on phone"... I have 3 replies to my messages which are identical like this. 4) Another worst feature is that pending transactions and approved transactions are mixed when you see it online which is very confusing. Raised inconveniences but no hope. I didn’t cancel my card as it’s not going to help me. So I have started using another card, which pays rewards annually but has good customer service and easy to use a website. I have a habit to review transactions 5 days a week. If you like to review your account regularly then you would be frustrated by the Walmart MasterCard website.
