I have used it twice, there is an amount on it. The only problem with the card now is that it is getting declined everywhere.
So they are ripping people off from half of what their card is saying.
The website states that my Card "WAS BLOCKED"
But I never reported my card stolen ever.
So now I am out of the funds in the gift card and even the store managers can not get a hold of any person from GE MONEY BANK (The ones that issue the card).
Try GE MONEY BANK website and tells me to go to Walmart.com then walmart tells me to go to the company that issued the card.
Every number I have tried give me nothing but the run around.
So to everyone out there.
DO NOT BUY THE WAL-MART VISA GIFT CARD EVER.
you will be ripped off.

great experience with walmart visa gift card
AUTHOR: nursemel - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, September 23, 2009
POSTED: Wednesday, September 23, 2009i have had my pre-paid visa from walmart, issued by GE money bank, now for over a yr, my husband has one in his name and i have one with my name, i can go online to pay bills with it, make reservations, track our spending, re-load with cash at any walmart, plus it is also set up for direct deposit, its way easier than a checking account that can be over-drawn or paying interest, plus its immediate.
i can check the balance 24/7 online, by calling the 800# or have it sent text to my phone, i even have it set up to send me a text whenever it is used(with the new balance total) so i know when my husband uses the account! i dont have to carry large amounts of cash around. and i dont like going to the bank, waiting in line, balancing a check book, worrying about over-drafts, waiting until the next day for the funds to be available
this card has been a life saver and i love it, im sorry you had a bad experience, but thats not the case with me. ive never felt "ripped off". i use it everyday, i have the # memorized i use it so much, its safe, annonomous, doesnt cost me but $3 to add $ and im never charged to use it, except at an ATM, but i never do that because when u pay with it at walmart you can just get cash back for free.

POSTED: Wednesday, January 07, 2009In order to partially pay for an item with a credit/debit card have the cashier input the amount you wish to pay prior to swiping the card. That amount will be deducted from the card and the balance displayed for you to pay by other means.

Green Dot is the new company
AUTHOR: Frank - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, February 01, 2008
POSTED: Friday, February 01, 2008They will send me a refund minus a $5.00 fee (On the back of the card) for clearing the card number. Told me to destroy the card.
I just lit a fire under them, told them to get their act together or I will contact the FTC. Within 12 hours they contacted me.
So I will receive my small refund in about a week. But with all those fees, it is not worth it to have a gift card.
Before buying a gift card, please read every little word on the back.

How old is that card?
AUTHOR: Thomas - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, January 31, 2008
POSTED: Thursday, January 31, 2008You are better off with a store-issued card: a 'Target Gift Card', a 'Wal*Mart Gift Card', and so on, because these store-issued cards neither expire nor are they subject to dormancy fees.
