My chase credit card account is updated with the new address. Anyone experience the same could pls advice what is the best cause of action?
The best action to take?? Verify your new address with them by faxing a utility bill...

I am quite late to the game but, Super excited to replicate the VR reload at my WallyWorld. First one had non-working kiosk machine so went to Service desk and was denied the reload terming the debit card as prepaid. Went to the other one nearby with working kiosk and the load was done in under a minute Now can any kind soul tell me a.) how to withdraw from BB to my bank account (chase) b.) Why some people term that as not being safe ?

Also, for the withdrawal limit per month:
You can get cash up to a maximum of 3 times a day and up to $2,000 a month. There is a $2 fee per each ATM Withdrawal unless you set up Direct Deposit and use a MoneyPass ATM.

Does that mean that I can setup any amount of direct deposit from my linked bank and then avoid the $2 withdrawal fee ?

thank you.

>> How to withdraw from BB to bank account.

They sort of hide the option. Select "Add/Edit Funding Source " then, after you have linked your bank account, there will be an option under the bank account to "Click here to transfer funds from your Bluebird back to your bank account."

To me, it doesn't seem any less safe than other uses discussed here.

That would be scary!!!

There has to be some type of protection in place
You have the email-receipts confirming that you bought the cards. If they don't show in 2 weeks, I would call and ask if they have been activated. If no, then ask to reissue and remail. If yes, then there is an electronic trail for the police to follow. I guess the e-receipt is the proof. These cards are issued to YOUR NAME and ADDRESS and if someone other than YOU activates and/or uses -- I think it is safe to say that there will be jail time.

I stopped getting these because I wanted to max out on GCs and get fuel points. I think I'm about to hop back on this bandwagon.

I haven't gotten any of these in awhile either. The ability to get 2x for GCs at gas/grocery locations with other cards keeps me going back for more!!

BA virtually unknown blogger MilitaryFlyer(??) posted about Chase Credit Cards today. I guess he needs readership or something.

Glad no arrows and circles were drawn.

Oh well was going to happen sooner or later....

I have a stupid question. I am hoping the nice people in this forum could give me an answer. I got my first MO from WM using CGC. Can I deposit it to my bank account using the ATM or do I need to go to the human teller? Thanks a lot.

Did you maybe think about asking your bank?

Agree, this is likely bank specific. Just call them up and say your work schedule makes it hard to swing by during normal office hours and ask if you can do it.

I have deposited WM MO's at a Chase ATM on several occassions...no issues at all. Sometimes the ATM can't read the amount, so you just enter it, but as far as the funds posting to the account the next day...no issues whatsoever....

So one of the blogs is saying he received a tip that the fee waiver will end on 9/22. I think the same guy predicted an end on Aug 4th as well though. Anyone else hear any rumors?
