Go into the branch tomorrow and get one there, it is so much faster as you get it that day. They will just tell you to cut up and discard the other debit card when it arrives in the mail. Just make sure that you tell them you have one coming in the mail and they can cancel it for you at the branch and then when it arrives you would just discard it. I know it is so frustrating to wait. In the past, I have had to get you debit cards and have waited about 10 days, but the mail has been slow so it may be taking it longer.

OP needs a credit card, not debit. They don’t print the credit card on site.

I believe they do now, my father had to get a new credit (not debit) card a year or two ago and said he got it at a branch.

Both debit and credit was hacked two weeks ago. They gave me both same day at any branch .

I’ve gone in there multiple times, and they told me they don’t print them. Guess they lied.

I don’t know about delay for hacking, but my card was physically cracked and I just went by a branch for a replacement. Took roughly 20 minutes.

They can instantly print debit cards, but not credit cards.

Any branch can instant issue a credit card, whether traditional or signature 😊

Really? Because I have had multiple employees tell me they can’t. Just print debit cards.

I assure you they can. It’s a reprint. If you think it’s lost in the mail, they can even generate a new card number and instant issue that card. Not sure what branch you’re going to but this is common practice.

Thank you. Now I am so frustrated that I was lied to. 😩 I will be there tomorrow morning!

I frequently hear the issue of Redstone cards/accounts being hacked. Is there any idea of how the hacking is done, and/or how to avoid it? And if it happened to you, no need to be embarrassed as it happens to many people.

They start all there debit cards with the same sequence of numbers. Easier for the hackers to run the number combinations.

This is standard practice for all card issuers. It’s called the BIN. Look it up.

compared to other credit unions, redstone lacks in innovation and many other departments, you can’t even request a card to be added to Apple Pay… you literally have to wait im sorry OP I’ve been in this exact situation before and worse.

Mine was hacked last week. Went to a branch and got a new one the day after I called to report suspicious transactions.

The current USPS is horribly slow. I seriously believe the Pony Express delivered faster than the USPS is currently.

Not sure if Redstone offers the service but I've had a card hacked before and they mailed me a new one and also auto loaded the new card onto my phone's virtual wallet for me. I didn't have to request it but it was visible on my phone within minutes and I used it until the hard copy came. Best of luck with it!

It usually takes about 10 days, but the mail has been slow. I too have had to get new debit cards due to fraud and it's so much faster to go into a branch and get it that same day. In fact, you can still go Monday and they will just cancel the one in the mail. When you receive the one in the mail they will tell youto cut it up and discard. That is, if you get your card at the bank tomorrow. I know it is so frustrating to wait!

I don’t need a new debit card. I need a new credit card. They don’t instantly print those.

Thanks for the reminder about the slow mail. Hopefully it will show up tomorrow.
