Clear on the other, but no direct method.
Still working on the third.
Suppose I should share ..... WHAAAAAAT? .... I'll report back ..... YEAAAAH!
Like you mentioned, I thought the first method in OP was closed years back because of outrageous fees. Is it still around in a new version?

Same here. Can't figure it out. I see lots on this in 2010, but wiki not helping me find a successor.

Or perhaps you are one of the many many people to PM with Zero Posts who set up a Double Account Identity on this forum not to sound stupid or to get answers to questions. Since some people know after all the incorrect facts they have posted that know one will share a good deal with them. What was it something you called BB incorrectly hahahahaha

I received a blue school card in the mail. I'm waiting for a PP debit to arrive in the mail that I will fund with MPs. I'm new to this game, but I'm constantly popping into stores of call kind to see what I can find. It's like mining for gold.

I have it. $10 fee per month and it seems to have pretty significant bean load limits. I can't figure out the load limits yet but it doesn't appear to be more than $2500 per rolling month and may be less. It is a pretty small scale play at best. Unlikely to be a keeper for me.

PM please? I live by the sea also...

According to their site, I believe it's May 1, 2013 (but I did not pull it up just now, just citing from memory).

It is also posted here in the other WF thread on numerous occasion.

However, if you log into your account on the WF website, it's pretty hard to miss the notice and information.

I'm interested in folks experience's with this as well. I got one last year when OD was still in play. Have used it sparingly in favor of other options but has been useful for large debit. Curious though how hard it can be pushed.

And FWIW although the website sez $10 per month fee I haven't been charged that. As always YMMV.

I've talked to other people that if you hit it for over the Netspend amount 15K that is the shutoff limit. Also heard same process to get the cash back as netspend.

Please let me know if anyone has experienced different results.

Sounds like it has a relatively low mass, and getting money back would be at very low velocity.
