      On 3/30/24 I was on the highway driving to ******** for work. When I was crossing state lines into ********, I received 4 notifications back to back. I looked at it and WTH. I was on the phone with my friend that was on the phone with me my entire drive. The first exit I seen, I took it to park to call Comdata. My company uses Comdata to load their employees per diems. There were three transactions for $199 each. I call Comdata and was told I have to wait 7 days for transaction to post. I called on day 8 and file a dispute. I was told that the dispute takes up to 10 days and you will receive an email, I never received the email and was asked about the email every time I called. I called back on 4/17/24, I was told my dispute was approved on 4/15/24 and they was waiting for the fraud department to send my funds over to them ( takes 24 - 48 business hours after approval date) so they can issue the refund. As of now 5/6/24, I havent received my money nor a email and I was asked to spell my email address on every call. I was told three times about getting my case escalated and still nothing. I emailed the fraud department and received an automated message. I havent received a response back and I have emailed them several times. My job is about over and I have a feeling that when I head home, I still wont receive a deposit of my funds.

      Greetings,

      Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to improve your experience with us. I have resolved your issue by taking the following actions:

      Your dispute information was provided to our fraud department to confirm they have received the police report for the fraudulent transactions totaling $597.00.
      The dispute was previously approved but in error, it was denied due to being flagged as a merchant credit. 
      The decision error has been corrected and a credit of $597.00 is in process. 

      The timeframe to receive the credits is 24 to 48 business hours. 

      As we discussed, they have a new system for providing credits and it may take a few days later. 

      If you need further assistance with this matter, my direct phone number and email address was provided to you in a separate email. Your reference number is 16990807.

      Best regards,

      I donate plasma at 8:00 plasma donation center. I am compensated for my donations. Our compensation is loaded on the prepaid card. The company name at the top of the card is Comdata. They are a financial services company for employers. As donors we are not employers but we are still compensated nonetheless. When I was at their establishment in the last Tuesday of August of last year I had a text notification of literally mean that all the money had been taking off the card at an ATM that was 700 miles away. People saw me in that establishment. I know that this didn't happen to just me because a screener at the donation center told me that somebody had been in the previous day complaining about the same thing. For 8 months now I have called this company trying to get my money back not only will they not respond to me but they have never responded once to their customer service people. I have sent three emails never got no response. The amount is not a lot of money but as I'm legally blind it does make a difference to me because everything else especially this day and age. I have to take two buses in a light rail just to get one way there and then come home same way. I literally gave blood for this money and they're going to steal it from the disabled person that's terrible.

      ********,

      After a detailed review, our Fraud team discovered that the Terms and Conditions applied to your cardholder account during the relevant period were incorrectly assigned. Further examination confirmed that the transaction in question did indeed appear fraudulent.

      As a result, we are pleased to inform you that a credit will be issued to your account for the amount that was wrongfully taken. Additionally, we will send a revised letter confirming this correction to your registered email address.

      We sincerely apologize for any confusion and the conflicting information previously provided. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked to resolve this matter.

      Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

      Best Regards

      I had a fraudulent charge to my card in September of 2023. I contacted Comdata and the fraudulent department (that they told me to email) multiple times in the past 6months. I am told that the fraud department does not have a phone number. Comdata customer ******************** always informs my that they will "escalate" the situation and that the case is still open. The fraudulent charge was made in ** but I live in ** so I think it would be a fairly straight forward case. They also tell me that they can only email the fraud department and cannot call them. I am wondering if they will ever contact me back.

      We used Codata fleet cards for almost 10 years. Recently due to trucking being slow and brokers/costumers not paying ** on time, we have been late to pay Comdata for 1-3 days, not months , days. They charged us almost $5000 in late fees. We paid Comdata millions of dollars in last 10 years, never been late. We feel that this is a extortion since they know that we have no choice than to pay them since we have trucks on the road and do not want them get stranded if they cancel our cards.

      I was issued a Comdata money card to receive my employment wages on. On January 4, 2024, at 7:07 pm and 7:08 pm, I received two text messages stating that there were two transactions authorized each for the amount of $280.00. I had been in my home in ******** for the last couple of hours and my card was still in my wallet. I called customer service on the back of my card immediately letting them know that there had been unauthorized transactions on my card ending with 3342. The representative told me that I could not file a claim until the transactions finished being processed and it could take 5 to 7 business days before I could file the claim. I checked a few days later and called back once I noticed that the transactions had cleared. I made the claim over the phone. The representative told me that their investigation would take 21 days and that Comdata would e-mail me the results of their investigations. I called them at least two more times before the 21 days were over and started to worry that I would not get my money back. On 1/19/24 I decided to make sure to report this to the police in hopes that they would be able to help with the investigation. I did receive a call from a detective, they were able to pull pictures of the cameras in the *** in Westwood *********** showing a man making the transactions on the *** but that is all they had. On 1/29/24, I received an e-mail from Comdata stating they did not have enough information and they declined to pay me my wages. I have attempted to continue to dispute the matter by mail and their website however I have not heard back from them. This is my hard-earned money that is due to me.
