So I just picked up a Blue card (4999) in AZ this week while I was there on business.

Looks like I might be too late to the game with these.

I went with the "Pay-as-you-go" plan - although I can't see anywhere on the web account what plan I'm enrolled in, let alone an option to change it.

I put $10 on the card at the store ($20 total cost) and loaded a $500 VR that night.
4 days later (today) I just loaded $3500 more in one go.

Unfortunately, it seems the savings account is shut down and the BP options are super weak. Other than a CA, which is triggering shutdowns - I don't see any way to get the money off this card.

I chatted online with a support dude and it went like this:

Zach: they are working on setting up the savings account but at this time it does not work with the new 4999 cards
BenH: but it is a planned feature? When I signed up for the card just this week they said it has savings and the website says this is a feature
Zach: hmm okay let me double check
Zach: they are working on it and its expected to be available shortly but at this time it s not running yet. I do apologize you did not get htis infomartion

So it sounds like they may indeed implement it - and when they do, perhaps they will introduce/revamp some other things.

I'm going to try a few things to get the money off, but if no-go I may just keep it in there for a month or two to see if the savings account get's re-enabled. Then, I may just keep the account for the savings and simply withdraw the interest once a year and hope they improve the card features.

Worst case scenario I close down the card to get my $$ back and still profit a couple hundred bucks in churn.
