Sign up process is broken

I’ve been trying for 2 days now to sign up but I can’t even make an account due to in-app issues, I can explain, but would rather talk to support about.

Total scam

They give you $25 but won’t let you use it on anything that’s $25 or less. So I bought a $50 pack and had to pay $25. Pulled a PSA 10 Gengar worth $20. Okay cool I try to ship the card, cost another $5 for shipping. Okay I can do that. Except for the app will not let me pay the invoice to ship the item. Total scam they want you to get your money tied up on the app you won’t be getting any of the cards you purchase.

Don’t fall for the free sign up bonus.

Signed up and the free sign up bonus wasn’t sent to em until after it expired. Very scammy way to get you to download the app.

Scamish

Bought rips , the person on the live draws them and I felt like it was a scam . Also bought a number on live and didn’t receive any cards . Would be better if they explained how it worked . Lost a little of $200 within a span of an hour . Better to just buy the cards you want !Will never use this app again .

Beware

Paid $75.00 for a football rip. I ended up with a card with PSA 9 valued at a whopping $32.00. And to make matters worse they offered me a trade in of $22.00. Never again scam.

Scam App

Wouldn’t even let me login after I created account talking about wrong password or email and I have received password changes request multiple times and change them

Start up

It was hard to start up and it said it gave me $25 and then I never gave it to me

Wrongful ban

Asked to step away to stop spending so much.

Come back a year later and my accounts fully banned.

Won’t be back, clearly.

Don’t even know how to withdraw my money

They make withdrawing your money so difficult .., why should I have to enter a promo code to withdraw my cash . Then I can’t even speak to anyone . This app is so trash . I also ordered instant packs and of course it was a big rip off . Paying $75 for a $25 card and then another $75 and got a $30 card . They can kick rocks !

Debut Pack scam

They advertise that you get a free debut pack when you sign up but there is no way to claim it. They will tell you have to join a break that offers debut packs but there is no such thing. Signed up months ago and have never seen one

Legal Scam!

Won 3 bids ….28$ card wasn’t in break (complete loss) Pokémon card n baseball card I had shipped YET TO GET ANYTHING tracked all the way to my city then got redirected now no updates on tracking…. Complete loss

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

AWFUL

Customer service is not helpful

I’ve been using the app for about 15 months now. I’ve had a lot of fun with a few of the break shops; however, there are some bad apples that do some questionable things. I’ve reached out to Fanatics support and they have been less than helpful - typically just redirecting me back to the shady break shop I’ve complained about. They’re 100% just about making money.

Bait and Switch.

Had been targeted by recent ads to download this app because I enjoy collecting sports cards. The ads and their website brought people in with their “free rip for new app users” but when I tried to check it out, it was “no longer being offered” despite its current website promoting it and extremely recent ads doing the same. Bait and switch tactic. Pretty lame.

Very disappointed.

Unfortunately the prices are just too expensive. No where near as busy at WhatNot it’s closest competitor. Not as much choice for products and sports. Like anything in the hobby they have pumped so much money into it, will go bang eventually cannot last.

Scam

All these breakers are scammers

This app is just not it.

I was excited to try this app but now I’m regretting every bit of it. I began with making a small purchase, a pokemon booster bundle for $55, just so that I could learn the app mechanics. There’s been absolutely no transparency since. I bought the bundle on the 12th, it’s now the 17th and I haven’t received tracking or a response from the seller at all. I’m incredibly glad that I didn’t drop the $300+ that I was originally wanting to. I attempted to contact support because I there’s been no movement and I finally got a response that was completely unprofessional, terrible grammar- I have no idea what the person was trying to suggest. I was told by them to wait until the 24th to see if I get tracking by then… so 12 days after my purchase. That’s absolutely insane. I spend a good bit of my hard earned money on my collection hobby and this isn’t the app to do that with. If you want card auctions stick with Whatnot and if you like instant card rips stick with Triumph Rips. People deserve transparency when spending their hard earned money.
