These cards are a scam. I am joining many people to report it. The card has been ordered online and it has been sent to us by mail. However, it never worked and the money were stollen almost immediately. The company deactivated the card and they have asked me to send the copy of the card. I faxed all documents twice and every time I was told the docs was not good enough. Do not buy cards from this company, you will lose the money.

My mother in law bought a $500 gift card at QFC. The QFC clerk handed her a tampered gift card where the CVV code had been scratched off. We've now spent a month sending multiple faxes to US Bank with the information they requested to replace the card, and each time they say the "faxes are too dark." This is just a scam to cheat people out of money. US Bank is so worthless and criminal. Avoid doing business with them in any way.

I can't use the money inside it's a scam!! Don't buy it!!!!

My gift card worked for a while, then suddenly stopped. I went to the website and always got an error message. I called the number on the back of the card. They said my card was inactive as a fraud precaution. Also, that the only way to activate it was by faxing them, pictures of the card and my government ID. I live in a remote area and have no access to a fax machine. When I registered my card, I gave them the phone number I was calling from. They knew that that phone number was associated with the card. Other places allow other ways to send the information needed. For all practical purposes, they have stolen the balance of my card for me. Looking at the other reviews. It sounds like many others have this problem. They are pocketing the money that people pay for these gift cards and can’t use.

Do not buy these cards! It's a scam! I got a card for Xmas. Tried to pre registered as the card says. Was told it had been flagged for Fraud, brand new card. Ok. Clicked the link that card doesn't work and it wants my name, phone number, email address, all the card info plus pictures of all that and PROOF of purchase, which I obviously don't have, since it was a gift.. anyways call customer service they tell me to do the link again and send picture of card as proof. So I got back on and now link doesn't work and it tells me to call number again. Now they want me to FAX the documents to them... who has a fax machine anymore? So I have to pay to send this fax from a place I have to track down? I asked for a new link or email address. Nope. Fax. Call again complain it doesn't work.... sucks for me but mostly feel bad about person who bought me card. DO NOT BUY this brand!!! Thief's!

Folks this has gone full circle. I called Mastercard, the cards you are buying are printed by Krogers! I finally got the Krogers financial ass to give me the 10 digit serial number, and the worst part is when I called mastercard again they said it was fake too. Krogers and US Bank are on the web linked at the hip doing there own credit card and gift card and banking bs. But the reviews say it all, I lost$260.00, STAY AWAY FROM ANYTHING TO DO WITH KROGERS OR US BANK! PLEASE

Tried to use it at Walmart for some groceries. Wouldn't go through. Get online to see if I need to activate it and boy, what a scam. This is not a legitimate business.

This company is either operated by individuals lacking basic sense or is a meticulously organized scam. My card got blocked the moment I tried it for online shopping. Retrieving my money has turned into an exasperating ordeal. They requested my ID via fax (seriously, who still uses fax?), and when I sent it, they complained about the photo being too dark (inevitable with faxed images). Now, I'm forced to send it via mail, but they provide only a PO box, making it impossible to send a certified letter. This opens the door for them to deny receiving it, and I have a sinking feeling that's precisely what will occur.
