~alexboorman's review of Netspend customer service
GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Netspend customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~alexboorman: I had to wait for ** minutes just to talk to someone then they kept placing me on hold throughout the duration of helping me for *-** minutes at a time (around * times). The customer service rep was difficult to understand and generally unknowledgeable. The music on hold is painful to listen to and there's no option to disable it. I'm not super happy with this company to start with but this customer service experience really makes me doubt using them at all. Having to spend *** minutes on the phone just to have a simple question answered isn't really appealing.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Netspend. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Netspend problem?
~alexboorman: I'd give them a five out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~alexboorman: I'd give them a two out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about Netspend's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~alexboorman: For that I would say three out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Netspend customers?
~alexboorman: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for Netspend to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~alexboorman taken from his Netspend customer service problem that occurred on November 7th, 2017.
