Fantastic

I’ve been using privacy for over three years now. Started as a free user then moved to premium as I switched all my bills to it. I use the service for all online payments now. I used to get hit by fraud a few times per year and it’s an annoying process to go through. Now I’ve dropped to one fraud in 3 years. Privacy has caught multiple fraudulent attempts and stopped them cold. Since cards lock to merchants I don’t even need to kill a compromised card. It’s even fun to watch the scammers try to use it and fail! The app works amazingly well and it’s easy to use . I like how it tracks transactions per card so you can see how much you are spending. I’d like to see some more reporting capabilities in the future is my only suggestion. Like spit out reports of how much spend per card per month/year/custom. The cash back with premium pays for the fee and even some extra cash which never hurts. Customer service was great too the one time I used them. I recommend it to all my friends. Thank you for a great service Privacy!

Welp. I am a client. Extraordinary company!!!

I started using Privacy because I have a lot of accounts that I don’t want one main card to be associated with. At first it took a little getting used to their customer service, but once it was all set and done I have not had any issues with the cards locking them unlocking them or setting them up. This is the easiest way to protect yourself and your credit cards from being manipulated on the web. I use privacy cards for bills, school stuff, even work stuff.

They may not work with cell phone providers or certain companies, but that is a tiny issue with such big wins. The convenience of having a credit card that has access to one account rather than having a multitude of cards, and possibly not maintaining them correctly is a breath of fresh air and a lot easier than I’ve ever met imagined. I am a total fan. This is an awesome company.

I don’t understand the negative reviews.

I see several reviews that are quite negative. This service has been indispensable for me. Works great. Their support is fairly responsive (a little slow, but always within 24 hours). The only issue I have is that it takes a long time for refunds to come in (but they do come in, but you’ll end up waiting a day or two for them to show up).

Really great service for online purchases and for use with any services you may want to cancel in the future (great to use to pay bills like internet service so they can’t take your money if you want to cancel).

The only other issue I’ve had is there’s a few places I purchased and it got flagged and declined because privacy marked it as a “threat seller”. Which doesn’t make sense because that’s the whole reason I was using a burner card. Obviously if they’ve already requested the money then they have the card number anyways. So, I don’t really see why I shouldn’t have the option to allow the one payment.

Seriously though...this app is one of my favorite things of all time.
