note-to-self: get all money out of Epassporte.
Fraud is a very valid concern but I won’t stand for over-zealousness. If anyone can recommend a good virtual card, please let me know.
I prefer online shopping with virtual cards for my own protection.
Wow, this is pretty amazing stuff. I will definitely stay away from epassporte.
A good alternative is moneybookers.com and also ikobo.com
Update : those $500 are still gone and I still have been scammed by Epassporte
After 1 month of concern, and without any information from the customer support, I got my money back !
A real pain in the **** … BUT I got those $500 back on my account …
Now … let’s try to go back to an ATM to try to get some cash again ! lol
and
If a company holds onto your money for ANY length of time, you are being scammed. Lastbutnotleast, they made interest plus deposit fees off you in the very least. This company is holding onto peoples money and will not release it until you send them enough sensitive, personal information that they can steal your identity and comprimise the integrity of your credit card(s) and personal checking account.
This is outright, deliberate blackmail. Some people think they only do this when there is suspicious activity on an account. All I did was verify my checking account, make a deposit, wait ten days for it to clear ( a TOTAL joke, btw… even this is complete BS they get the money in at most 1-2 business days, but when done like an electric check as this is, it is INSTANT.)
Then I requested the money back to the same, verified checking account because I was highly suspicious of a company that took that long ( I have used other services in the past, swiftpay, netteller, firepay.) A month later, I have no money from them and my account is placed “in a temporary fund protection mode.” IE they wont give me my money until I send them front and back of a credit card ( i never used a credit card on this site,) my current bank statement, a copy of my government issued I.D. card, copy of a voided check, and most current credit card statement.
Boyyyy that sure seems odd… i’ve never had such a request in all my life from a company.
They will not respond to my e-mails and when you call the long-distance number the guy tells you he can’t connect you with the support department… what a joke! Total scam, I’m talking to a lawyer about drawing up a class-action law suit. I’m also filing a dispute with my local bank… which is what I suggest anyone do at the very least… do NOT send these scammers your personal info !!!
Personal info has to be protected indeed
What is the amount of money involved in this case ?
I am a former employee of epassporte or ccg technologies whatever you want to call it.If anyone has serious inquiries and wants to know what really goes on, email me @ itsjustnikki@yahoo.com. I worked there up until dec 07’ in the call center.It’s located in florida, but epassporte is in california. I was terminated basically for questioning alot of wrongdoings that go on, but they claimed customer abuse because I advised a customer what he was really getting into. email me if you really want to know what you are getting into.
Well it just looks like you’re going to say that epassporte is bad but you will not going to help in any way people having issues with epassporte
i have no bad experience with ePassporte ,
they really note to the incoming FAX’s
just send a fax and explain the problem
guys epassporte made the same “unusual activity” and suspended my account and it’s full of money they request copy of id…etc i sent them everything and thy ignored me ever since and i have been sending them requests to either release my money or transfer them to any other account and i have been begging them more than 8 months now so I’m feeling very angry from them and I’m gonna sue them even if it costs me a million bucks they not except a bunch of theives
We got our money out in time to miss the doors closing. We found a company called PayQuicker. Global, good support and our affiliates are pleased with the multiple payment types available to us in one interface. We can do batch payments and issue prepaid debit cards. Very happy!
I just noticed that account balance is not visible anymore when I log into my ePassporte wallet account. I am so happy I took screenshots. But the fact that they disconnected the account balance really makes no sense to me.
The guy that started epassporte is a legend, he has has a film made after him called Middle Men, check it out he is a gangsta mf
After you watch the film you will know why it is gone now and you wont be getting the money because its siezed:D
