      Terrible card. Most places won’t take the card. You must know the balance to use it, if you find someone who will take it. Impossible to get information about the card over the phone or online. Extremely unhelpful staff. Because they have the year for my birthday, I cannot get the balance on the card. The issuing institution has the correct year. I still cannot get any information.

      Hello Amy,

      First off, I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. Per our review, while your date of birth is correct on two or your profiles / cards, it is incorrect for the card ending in 8424. You should be receiving an email from our Support manager, Keinan, who will be directing you to contact your research facility to assist with having the date of birth corrected. At that point, you will be able to use this card.

      Sincerely,

      Mike

      If you read this review, you also got scammed by ClinCard.
      It'll clean(Clin) your money in the gift card if you don't register right away.
      This company is full of scams.
      ClinCard will charge you every month for the unregistered or unused card and eventually, gift card balance will be $0 pretty quickly.
      Do they think they are Amex Platinum or Black?? Why do they charge a high amount of monthly fee without providing any service?
      I can't believe the company is doing this type of scam business.
      Stay away from this shitty company.

      Hello Bernard,

      After reviewing your account and contacting you via email, we were able to locate your account and fees were reversed to bring your balance back to $50. I hope this satisfies your situation. Please do not hesitate to reach out to Cardholder Services at the number notated on the back of your card.

      As a reminder, the details of these fees are described on the card carrier that the card was attached to.

      Sincerely,

      Mike

      my clincard was scammed with multiple purchases from 3 different companies. Called all 3 companies to have charges reversed. All 3 companies gave me the exact same verbiage (clearly scripted) had the same accent and same hold music as the my clincard call number to complain about the charges in the first place. online shows credits have been issued, but the card is not yet working, so I think it was drained completely and those new charges are not yet showing up. Will update if it does work and I am able to get some $$ benefit from the card. I got this for volunteering for a covid study. Several hundred dollars is probably down the drain.

      Hello Thomas,

      I apologize for any inconvenience you are experiencing. We have reviewed your account and see your card transaction history shows transactions and refunds put onto the card. However, the card is currently in restricted status per the bank report for suspicious activity. We see that you called Support on 12/21/2022 and failed the security validation process. You will need to contact your research facility and ensure your correct personal information is on file, then contact Support to have the card unlocked, and if needed, to submit any applicable dispute.

      Sincerely,

      Mike

      This is by far the worst company I had to deal with it in my life. I received this card from my school as part of a reimbursement. I tried to make 3 online purchases and ALL of them was decline. The first time I tried using the card, was for a Price Line, to pay for an airfare, I called their customer support line, not to mention it was super complicated, and not at all user friendly. After much struggle, a lady pick up phone. After explaining my situation to her, she stated that the merchant was consider a high risk for fraud and therefore was blocked by the bank. I find it unusual, and end it up moving on! Another day, I tried to pay for my phone bill at ATT, and it was declined again! I called them, this time a guy answer, and after explaining my situation, he mentioned I cound;t use the card to make bill payments, again, find it super odd! After much going and forward, I asked if I could use the card for hotel reservations, and he said yes! Then, I tried to pay for airbnb and guess what? declined again!!! OMG!!! Unfortunately, I had to called them again and guess what? It was blocked by the bank as airbnb is a high risk for fraudulent activity!!! I'm like, please you guys are such BS! Everthing you try to do, they make it super difficult! Transfer to my bank account takes 2 to 3 days alone just to add my account! Another 3 days to transfer to my account! This writing makes no justice of the awful experience I had go through.

      We have reviewed your account to follow up on this review. Per our review, it shows that in response to a call on 10/30/22, three instances of the inactivity fees were reversed. Unfortunately, Greenphire has no control over what the bank deems as a high risk merchant. Processing times for money transfers is also a part of typical processing time via a bank. Your other option would be to either utilize an ATM and withdraw from the card, or do an over the counter withdrawal at a participating bank.

      I received a Clin Card as a thank you for taking part in a research study after I tested positive for Covid. I completed the 4 month study in April of 2021 and while it was greatly appreciated, since I wasn't being paid by my employer for being sick for 2 1/2 mos., I do NOT remember reading anything anywhere, about a $4.50 per month service charge if the card was inactive for over 6 months. I've basically had $49.50 ripped out of my pocket! I tried to use the card less than 1 yr ago and it wouldn't let me make a purchase. I called tonight to check the balance, thinking foolishly that I had over $50 in the account, to only find out I had $3.81. I was shocked!!! If this was an account that had a maintenance fee, then why wasn't I sent a monthly statement showing my balance? For $4.50, that's the least they could've done. It would only have taken ONE maintenance fee before I took my hard earned money out of their hands. I need that money that was ripped it away from me for a maintenance fee that is monitored by a computer and that is not seen by any human eye! I agree with another commenter, Medical and Research Companies, I highly suggest using a different method to compensate your patients with! This company rips people off!

      Hi Penny,

      I apologize for any frustration you are experiencing due to this situation. That being said, the $4.50 inactivity fee is clearly documented in both the patient facing material the coordinator of the study should have given you, as well as in the terms and conditions for using the card that was in the envelope the card is supplied in.

      We have taken the action to reverse all the fees charged as a one time exception. Please keep this in mind going forward, as fees will be taken according to the inactivity rules going forward.

      Sincerely,

      Mike
