I purchased a $50 MasterCard for my adult son who lives in Germany. He was headed with his fiancé to NYC for a week before headed back to Germany. I purchased the card from CVS Pharmacy in Locust Grove, VA, and he tried to use it in NYC. Apparently it wasn't scanned properly. He couldn't use the card; and each time he called the MasterCard help number, there was no answer. So now I'm out the $50 and he has a worthless card that no one will do anything about.
