Biggest scam ever. Considering all the complaints, I believe it's time to start a class action lawsuit against Reserve Direct Credit. They gladly take your money and then there's no card. Called and c... See more

This company is horrible

This company is horrible. They charged me $35 fee and an additional $60 fee once my application was approved. They promised there wouldn’t be any additional charges. I had to wait a minimum of 3 months to receive my card with no support help whatsoever.

Once I finally got the card and activated it, I was alerted to call them to activate it & it took me 3 hours to get someone on the line after calling a bunch of times.

After I finally got someone on the line, I was told they wouldn’t activate my card unless I signed up for a credit repair service which cost me additional $119 and then they hit me with an unexpected $75 annual fee.

Considering that I only got approved for a $300 credit limit, how are they actually helping me?

This place is a total scam. Do not sign up for this card. It’s set up to take you money.

I would give less than 1 star if possible. Card is junk. I was approved and asked to pay $35 fee, which I did. After paying that fee I was asked to immediately pay another $60 fee from a separate account. So I am now $95 in and just received the card after waiting weeks. Went through the activation process and asked to call and speak with someone over the phone to activate. I have called over 130 times and unable to get someone on the phone to activate. I pressed another number and was able to talk to a person. He said that he didn't do activations and gave me another number to call. I've called this number 28 times and no way to get a person on the phone.
This card is junk and will never help anyone repair credit if they are just stealing money from people and not providing the service.
I am making a report with the BBB and requesting a full refund of $95!!
If you are struggling with credit or finances this card will only make it worse. Better to save your money and pay for a secured card with a good company like credit one, discover, or any others available.

I really don't care about getting my money back or getting a card cuz it's probably not going to happen but I want to know is there a way to get them in a class action suit? Any kind of way to get them unless it's just accompanying another country

Do not apply for this card

Do not apply for this card. Ok I understand if your credit is not perfect and fees have to be paid upfront. But when I finally got my card which was 2 months later and tried to activate it I had to pay a $195 credit monitoring program fee in order to activate it. It is a total scam. Do not apply for this card.

I am putting yet another review up here…

I am putting yet another review up here because I finally got the useless piece of plastic after a month and a half. You go onto the portal to activate it, and they say you need to call their 800 number to activate it. I had to dial about 100 times before anyone answered. What this is is a scam to try and collect another $195 from you for some bullshit credit credit repair. This is not a credit card. There is no $300 limit. These are scam artists. These are thieves. I have reported them to the BBB Scam alert and am reporting them to the FTC, and hopefully somehow we can get together for a class action lawsuit. These people need to be found and brought to justice. They have a big target on their backs and rightfully so. As if there was ever a worse time in recent memory to screw with people's money........they are going to come across the wrong people with their scam and they are rightfully going to pay for it. Parasite cockroaches.

This company is the worse

This company is the worse. I wish there’s a way to sue them. They not picking up the phone I waited over 2 months for a card. Trying to activate for days now and no one answers not even customer service. I just want my money back that I paid for these bullshit ass fees. How can I sue this company?

So I applied for the Reserve Card and was approved at which time I was sent a link to my bank account and had to verify a 35.00 payment after which I got nothing else from them and can't connect anyone. I live on Social Security and SSI

so here's the play

so here's the play- they approve you for $300 you pay $95 to have it sent, when you get the card to activate you pay an additional $195 for some bogus credit repair charge. so that's $290 , you're using your own money like a secure card. real scammy

People be scamming

Ordered this card like a month ago, finally came in today. I paid all the fees when I got approved for the card. Card comes in, I activate it, or try to activate it via the website then it says I gotta call this BS number to activate it. No one will take the call at all.

I paid the $95 fee then I waited a couple weeks and didn't get the card so I emailed them about it and I also looked on trust pilot and seen where people were in the same situation as me paid the $95 fee and then never receive their card at that point I emailed them and demanded either tracking information for the card or some sort of update or refund of my $95 after a few emails and them not being able to provide any sort of update at all that the card even exist or got shipped or even made they eventually gave in and canceled the card and are supposed to be refunding my $95 so I'll be monitoring my bank to see if I get my 95 bucks back in the next 10 days if not I'll be disputing it with my bank and all regulatory entities including my lawyers. Idk if this is a legit card or not but I would avoid it at this point.

DON’T DO IT; SCAM ALERT

Paid $95 in program fees for my card on April 23. Finally received my card today(June 12). Thought it was odd that after going to the website to activate my card, I also had to call for activation. Called and they told me I had to enroll in “credit cpr” to activate my account and it would cost an additional $195. Told them “no” and they cut it down to $119. Told them I didn’t need the service and activate my card or give me a refund. They were adamant about the program so I cancelled my card and got my refund. This is a scam and people should stay away

Do not get this card. They are scammers.

My experience with DirectCard Reserve has been extremely frustrating and they are a scam. DO NOT get this card.

I applied after seeing an Instagram advertisement, paid the required fees, was approved, and then waited approximately 2.5 months to receive my card. After finally receiving it, I called to activate the card and spoke with a representative who talked so quickly that I had difficulty understanding what was being explained. I believed I was simply activating my card.

Later, I discovered that approximately $195 in additional charges had been added for a credit protection product. Had I understood that I was agreeing to nearly $200 in additional charges on top of the fees I had already paid, I would have declined it.

I contacted customer service multiple times seeking answers and called 810-775-2581 (Michigan), 218-322-0411 (Minnesota), and 855-945-4898. I was repeatedly told the charges could not be removed or was directed to another department. I spent hours trying to get a clear answer and resolution. Having multiple different phone numbers to different states is highly suspicious.

The combination of the lengthy delay in receiving the card, the disputed charges, the multiple phone numbers, and the difficulty obtaining a resolution caused me to lose confidence in this program. I have requested proof that I knowingly consented to the additional product and charges.

Due to my concerns regarding the enrollment process and disputed fees, I have filed complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and my state's Attorney General's office and requested that the matter be reviewed as well as the issuing bank.

My advice to anyone considering this card is to carefully review every fee, ask questions about any optional products, and request clarification before agreeing to anything over the phone, if you can even understand them.
