      I used my comdata card over the phone with someone and was a victim of fraud. I filed a complaint through the *** against the individuals, and then called Comdata and filed a fraud notice that I was a victim of such. I did such on October 22, 2022. I was told 21 business days Comdata would contact me through email and let me know resolution wise. 21 business days had passed, and I was not notified of anything. So, I contacted Comdata, and tried calling them and asked to speak with a supervisor, and I spoke with one of them. They said they would notify the fraud claims department and I should hear something from them. I waited a week and heard nothing not by phone or email. I again called back waited around an hour on hold, and I gave up and hung up. I called them again speaking to a supervisor and got no response from the fraud department. I called and noted to comdata that I had made the mistake of trying to buy crypto currency and do trading with someone and I was scammed. I'm sorry for being an idiot and letting myself be scammed. But I have waited since October 22, 2022 and have heard nothing from them since despite trying to communicate. I am not trying to scam Comdata out of money I work for octapharma, and donate plasma, and made a bad choice and got scammed. Normal bank cards help their customers in such instances, but Comdata does not appear to be trying. Please help!

      Ive tried so many times to reach out to this companies customer service managers. It seems they are always busy or they will call me back soon. Which never happens the phone call never comes. Ive been using this prepaid card from your company for about a year now. Im very upset because you can ever get all your money out because if you try to charge the card with the exact total or even a few cents off. It wont go through plus they charge you for not having money which the card those. So this has been going on for almost a year that I feel Ive been getting charged extra and money taken from me always. So I need you guys to open an investigation so Im able to get all my money back that has been robbed from me thank you.

      In July of 2022 I went to an atm to withdraw $400, I was not given the money but the money was withdrawn out of my account. I contacted the atm people who said this was an issue for the bank due and they should give my money back because its under the consumer financial protection. I contacted Comdata who said they would get back with me on my dispute within 30 business days. Well here it is November 29, 2022 and still no word. I have called multiple times and emailed their dispute team. Comdata is a fraud and I intend on taking them to court. It doesnt matter the amount it is my money and apparently they do it all the time. The matter needs to be addressed before it becomes a bigger situation.

      On August 9th, 2022 we noticed over $5000 dollars charges of fuel at one gas station location then immediately called Comdata to cancel the card and report the fraudulent charges. We had to submit a form to an dispute by email. We were told this claim can take 15 to 30 days. On August 30th we didn't hear anything and called to check the status of the claim was told the dispute department doesn't have a phone number. Then was told the claim was closed without explanation. This amount was automatically deducted from our business account over $5000. We complained stated that no way an investigation was done and didn't see fraud. We were to told submit another dispute via email with a form. Submitted another form 8/31. Then was told it can take up to 30 to 45 days. After 30 days we were told it can take up to 90 days. After calling customer service numerous of times for status update and telling us its no direct dispute number to call... we just have to wait. We then received an email the 2nd claim was closed with NO explanation. There is no way over $5000 of fuel could be charged over the course of 2 days without the actual card at the same location with our trucks was not in the area. The card was in our driver and the office location the entire time. No investigation was done. We're beginning to believe Comdata charged that amount incorrectly then deducted from our bank account. They're paid for charges of fuel that did not come from our company and do not care to resolved this matter. Everytime we called we get no where. No phone number for disputed only to keep filing disputes. The disputes are closed without explanation. This is entirely too much money to lose. This is completely unacceptable.
