JH (Jackson Hewitt) Preferred Card

Subscribe
Decided to sign up for this today and spread the news as it's another VR unloading tool... The bill pay system is through Billeo and not great (at least for my area); however, you are able to cash advance or withdraw for a limited amount using an ATM.

Can be a little pricey with the $510 ATM transaction limit and $2.50 fee, but using it for MO may be well worth it to then deposit into my Simple Bank account.

Various fees and limits are as follows; however the full list can be seen here.

Fees
$2.50 + ATM Fee for Cash Withdrawal
$5 Cash Advance up to $2,500
$3/month but WAIVED if load $1000+/month

Limits
$1000 maximum VR/day
$5000 maximum VR/month
$510 per ATM transaction
$2,550 daily ATM withdrawal

This was reported by Frequent Miler this morning. I signed up this am as well - also looking at MO/ Simple account routing

Damn you FT ruining it for us bloggers!!!!

I have a post coming out on it today, but the short version is $5k per month, unload via BP/MO's the cheapest option. Cash costs money ($2.50 ATM, $5 cash advance)

And it's from Sutton Bank, a new player, regulated by NYDFS, who actually is a pretty heavy handed regulator

Had the a couple of cards a couple of weeks all good so far but of course we will see once the volume goes up how long it lasts

The BP feature appears to be very very limited. I couldn't find any of my CC. It seems this will be good for MO only. I'd rather get a 4th BB.

This is very true. I emailed them a week ago about adding places (especially rent because then that won't take from my BB limit). If you look in the rent section, there are many personals, so I assume you can add something at some point or somehow. I have still not heard from them, but decided to go through with it today because I recently got Simple and just MO liquidating will work for me.

It's not even a real bill pay. It just takes you to the biller's web site. It's a joke. Unload via money order and third party bill pay (wm/rite aid/kroger/insert your grocery-or-pharmacy store here)

Any idea what the maximum debit limit on this card is?

My feelings exactly. I can see how this might make sense for some folks. But I have a good supply of BB shells. Btw DW and I we have 6 BB cards which all get maxed monthly. I would have jumped on this if the BP was decent.

Not willing to do the MO gymnastics at the moment.

I wish I had that many BB's. Wanna share some?
