Yeah, I'm trying to buy myself a Darwin Award on Amazon but everytime I go through to check out it changes in my cart to a t-shirt that says I'm With Stupid and has an arrow pointing up. I think its trying to tell me something.

UGH. I just tried to withdraw money from my account to my bank and it somehow switched me from bank account to gift card. So now I have a $1000 gift card I have to unwind somehow. That will be the last time I speed through the withdraw process!

Good luck liquidating. No good avenues via Amazon.

Since it was an actual error on Amazon's part, I'm trying to get them to cancel it and send the money back to my account so I can withdraw it.

AP can definitely be transferred to BB. I do it with no prob, sub accounts, I'm not sure.

Buy an expensive item on an Amazon lightning deal and resell it?

How do you setup BB account in AP, which routing and account number to use, Once that reflects on check or one that's shown in BB online account, both are different.

If you can't click around on the BB site and see it in bold where the routing/account numbers are... You shouldn't be attempting this.

It would be way more helpful if the answer was..the answer.

I, for instance, don't know the answer either. Routing/account number from the BB checks gives me some Wells Fargo bank data.

Thank you, got it.^

You know, it would not occur to me in my wildest dreams to establish a direct deposit with BB:D

Sorry if this was already asked/answered, but I did not see it in the FAQ or in my search. Can Amazon Payments be used to transfer money to a Blue Bird sub account? Assuming no since in general my understanding is that sub accounts cannot be "externally funded", but can anyone confirm? Thanks.

BB's website says that the answer is no: "Funds may not be added directly to Sub-Accounts from Add Funds Sources. A Sub-Account can be funded only by a transfer of funds from the Master Accountholder's Bluebird Account to the linked Sub-Account."

Has anyone actually done this? For my circumstances, the key question for whether this would be beneficial is Blueskyheaven's above --

Does moving money from AP to a BB account count against the $5K per month limit on loading the BB account with VRs and Wally World in-person swipes? Or, does doing this allow you to add the AP funds to BB above and beyond the $5K already being added through VRs and in-person swipes?

I would assume it would be over and above the $5k at the WM's counter/VR's..

No, it would not count against 5k limit. This will be like direct deposit for which limit is 10 k(I think)
