~Corndog's review of Direct Express customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Direct Express 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.
~Corndog: Was stranded in Ireland for three weeks on vacation. Some vacation. Had to borrow the money from my brother to get me back to US. CS person told me to "just keep trying and maybe it will work" ! Seriously! Then they locked my card and I had to wait until I got back to US before I could unlock it! Told me it was my fault for not telling them "officially" that I was leaving the US even though I called to ask them if it would work in Ireland AND there is no such directive on their website! TOTAL SCAM! Cancelling this crapola card ASAP!
