Reloadable Visa Debit product that will accept $1250/month?
Recently my mortgage servicer started accepting Visa Debit with the same fee as any other payment (a check in the mail is the only no-fee payment method). Unfortunately my miles-earning Delta Suntrust debit card is Mastercard. Does anyone know of a Visa Debit Card product that can be reloaded via Mastercard (either debit or credit) up to ~$1250/month?
Thanks in advance!

I'm really looking for a Prepaid and preferably Reloadable Visa product that I can use as a conduit to earn miles on the DL Suntrust Debit MasterCard... finding one that can be reloaded up to $1250 seems to be the difficult part, and splitting into multiple payments would equate to multiple fixed-fees which would outweigh the miles earned.

Anyone have thoughts on Kroger 1-2-3 Rewards Prepaid Visa loaded by GreenDot MoneyPak? Any recommendations on buying MoneyPak with debit card (CVS, Dollar General, Walgreens, Walmart, and Rite Aid are in my area)? Or is it purely local YMMV?

I'd recommend the Walmart preferred money card (you can get either Visa or Mastercard versions of any of the WM money cards). There is a $3 / month fee that is waived when you load at least $500 / month. You can reload it for free from other debit sources (such as ST debit) either at a Kate or at a register. You can order it online, and the daily transaction limit is $2,999.

It does have a pin, and it says both "Visa" and "debit" on the front so while I've never used it for mortgage payments, I haven't experienced any issues using it for the normal things I'd use debit cards for.
As this is a GreenDot product you should exercise some degree of restraint, for example, load up your $1,250 a week or so before you spend it. That way you're not seen to be immediately loading & unloading.
