Someone stole all my money from my unemployment debit card. Again. by laudablepuss 08/16/2025, 1:44am PDT
These cards are so great, US Bank "Reliacard". Guys, hackers are in your system. WTF. Rando "ATM Withdrawal" of $163.95 with no fee, that's such a normal thing. (It's not a lot, but I'm pretty poor these days.) The best part is that they say you have to fill out a dispute form and then it'll be up to 45 days before they refund your money. In reality, at least last time, they sent a new card out and it was only a few days before the money appeared, without me having to fill anything out. Dunno if that'll happen this time.

Why do I have this card? Because Colorado UE and my credit union can't work together to direct deposit. But at least I'm now, as of this past week, employed full time again. (I've been on part time for 3 months now.) They pay's not good but I can scrape by, probably. As long as people stop stealing all my money, anyway.

Ah well, good times. At least I can throw this stupid card away after I get the funds back. Oh, I did file a police report last time -- the amount taken that time was $700 something -- and it was, as far as I can tell, roundly ignored. I doubt I'll file one this time.
