Sure, $200 cashback and ATM withdrawals have gone, un-noticed, for years - but $800 purchases are not "normal" for this product - let alone, all coming at Target.

PLEASE NOTE (for those not as familiar with the product) - the $800 load to REDCARD (rather than $200 ATM withdrawal x 4) does not increase the amount of MS you can do via Nationwide - as each card still only has a 30 day load limit of $1000

You get your money back faster - sure. But if you cannot afford to float - what, a couple of grand - for a few weeks - should you really be playing this game???


Use it while you can, but I fear this one will suffer the same fate as TD Go Card - yes, the product still exists, but after a relatively short time, credit card funding got shut down.

Pretty sure this will fall on deaf ears. As always, have other methods lined up and ready to go.

I've noticed this thread has gotten many new posters since the RB shutdown. My area is very very difficult for MS. Since TD is no longer viable NW is all I have. Buxx has been around for a long time and I hope it continues.
It's only $1000 a month but it definitely helps meet my minimum spends.
