How long did it take for the money to settle in your bank account? I withdrew yesterday and haven't seen the money yet. Ant BTW, I withdrew to BB.

How did you do a ACH push to BB?

This might be a dumb question....or maybe answered already?

BB > Diret deposit > Get routing & account # > Enter those #'s into GW as bank source > Get verified > Tada!

Is this violating BB's "*Please note that the Bluebird Account number and Bank Routing numbers found on the Bluebird Direct Deposit form can only be used for adding your paycheck or Government Payments to the Bluebird Account and cannot be used for other payments." ?
I hope not... :S

Here's the whole part you found in the FAQs
*Please note that the Bluebird Account number and Bank Routing numbers found on the Bluebird Direct Deposit form can only be used for adding your paycheck or Government Payments to the Bluebird Account and cannot be used for other payments. For payments from your Bluebird Account, please use the Pay Bills option.
That's not in the T&C section. It's just bascially telling you that ACH transactions initiated from external source(s) to BB can only be used to push money in, not vice versa, pulling money out.

For that purpose (taking money out), you have to initiated from BB side and the only option to do that electronically (ACH) is via BB's Pay Bills function.

In short, ACH from external source(s) can onlly be done one way (deposit).
ACH from internal (BB) can be both ways: out => PayBills, in => Add Funds.

Have you moved any large $ amount since doing this? Or just verified the account?

Rather than manufacture spend, I just tried as an unloading technique on gift cards with PIN (seen as a debit with a $1 hold/pre-auth).

At this point, with free Chase GCs and a large supply of grocery store GCs, I'm overwhelming BB, can only deposit so many MOs, and don't love AFT with the higher fees.

Will be interesting to see if I get the letter as it's much harder to argue a debit card generating points, but we shall see....

By this do you mean you linked a debit GC to GW? The one I tried (Metabank) did not work.

All right, I'm intrigued and will try this in the next week.

I had invited someone by sending a penny and he then sent it back to me (even though I specifically asked him not too). Both transactions are now reversed.

Unusual activity for a penny? Were you sending pennies to multiple people?

Well that's not good news. I sent a friend a penny this AM, and then she reversed it back to me despite me telling her not to. Then she asked me to re-send it to a different gmail because her first one could not get verified, and I stupidly sent it again...

I guess I will await my e-mail.
