My point is just that this may be a great additional card to take when traveling but I wouldn't rely on it. For starters they don't even have 24/7 customer service (Major inconvenience when I've been trying to get ahold of them for over a week and am overseas - my card still doesn't work).
I call BS. I log in from my overseas computer to check my AMEX Prepaid account every day. No issues.
