Don't and never had an account, and *** has been withdrawing $1.00 out of my account unauthorized since 2023. I am a disabled senior citizen.

Dave Banking - Put my account on hold

It's been a week that they put my account on hold, and my only income I get is from my work. I'm a single mom of two with disabilities, and no one emails me. They have a machine that says I need to submit bank statements of an external account and a photo ID, which I already did, and still nothing.

Dave Banking - I can’t login into my account it’s not letting me I’m trying to borrow...

I can't log in to my account trying to borrow money and trying to see if I can redo my application. I've been trying to borrow money for years, and it's not letting me get any money.

I was trying to change my email address and my phone number too so I can borrow money from [PERSON_NAME]. I've been trying so hard, and it's giving me errors.

Lost my card

AI Highlights
  • - I lost it at Walmart; no one turned it in.
  • - Someone had to find it and should have returned it.
  • - People aren't as neighborly as they used to be.
Dave Banking - Lost my card

I lost it in ***, that's all. But no one turned it in.

So people better be more aware of their surroundings. I know that someone had to find it and they should have done the right thing.

People are not the same way that they used to be. I guess you can believe that people really are not neighborly.

Loss:
$500
Pros:
  • I can only say that it was my fault

Preferred solution: Nothing because it was my fault and not Dave's in any way

Lots of Trouble for me

AI Highlights
  • - The account is frozen; I have no access to funds.
  • - Bills are messed up and service didn't listen.
  • - The $10 is nothing next to the trouble caused.
Updated by user May 30, 2026

They sent an email saying it was resolved but I still have no access to my account. Then they say there is a firm to be filled out by the merchant and the merchant is the only one with the information needed on the form.

There is no merchant I don't have an acc with the app that took the took the ten dollars. I have repeatedly said to let the ten dollars be gone and unfreeze my account because it has cost me so much more by not being able to pay my bills. I'm still locked out and no one will talk to me they just use a recording referring me to the stupid email that I can't do anything with. Meanwhile I'm in deep with my bills not being paid on time.

I am wondering if I'm going to have to close my account with them just to get out of this stupid mess over 10 dollars.

They are not customer service friendly. They don't care that I'm going down deeper every day.

Original review May 29, 2026
When I talk to the lady and told her to not continue to dispute she did not listen they have my account Frozen my bills are messed up I have no access to my money and it's causing me nothing but trouble The little $10 was nothing compared to what y'all have caused me and they still were not on face my account and help me I do not like the way the customer service did not listen I've got major problems because of this
Cons:
  • All bad
  • Difficult to talk with human
