I wondered if this could possibly be a good MS outlet. If the employees let me buy a reload pack with a CC that earns a grocery store bonus and then I loaded onto the Netspend prepaid card. Only thing I can't figure out is how to drain the funds from the Netspend card. There is very little info on the netspend website about Billpay but there does seem to be a billpay option.
Even if you've never heard of the HEB specific product i'm referring to can anyone give me some insight to the viability of Netspend prepaid products as an MS instrument?
You do pulls from your NetSpend account. Go to your biller's website and set up NetSpend as a payment account by putting the route # and account number provided by NetSpend. Then pay your bill by pulling funds from NetSpend.
NetSpend gets upset and will lock your account if you only load $500 all the time and pay bills. They want their vig so you have to do some transactions so they get $1 every so often and don't load $500 all the time.
