| Summary |
1 star for friendliness, 1/2 star for helpfulness. Getting to a live customer service agent through the interactive phone system is a bit more complex than other companies. They only offer one option for adding cash to your card and their accounts are not FDIC insured, so your money is not protected by the government. |
