This RushCard debacle is extremely badddd for Russell Simmons’ business and honestly makes him look bad. While Russell may have done nothing personally, the card carries his name & brand.
Everybody knows the worse thing you can do is play with people’s money–especially on pay day. The RushCard “glitch” that is keeping folks away from their hard earned cash is reeking havoc throughout social media.
The PR cleanup is already in full effect but evidently customers aren’t buying the efforts being put forth by UniRush LLC, the parent company of RushCard services.
Judging by the hundreds of venomous tweets & Facebook status updates, people just want their money! –and I can’t say I blame them!
Peep the story below on Fortune and sound off in the comments section!
Via Fortune– Users of RushCard, the prepaid debit card founded by hip-hop mogul and DefJam co-founder Russell Simmons, have been complaining all across Twitter that they’ve been locked out of their accounts, that their accounts are suddenly showing $0 balances, and that they aren’t getting any answers from customer service.
Some people haven’t had access to their payday money in a week.
