I cleared my fund buying MO. Time to close the account as I do not see any value for keeping it alive.

If it works, you are getting 500 skypesos for $2.50, which is the ATM fee. Plus the hassle of dealing with the cash from the ATM withdrawals. I guess it might be worth it if you are low on skypesos.

Did anyone actually figure out if Suntrust credits Delta miles for loads to our Chime Card?

I searched this thread and elsewhere and couldn't find an answer anywhere. I would try myself (and will if no one has an answer) but I won't be able to report back till January 4 given that it is now December 1.

Thanks!

Can this be unloaded using Serve debit card?

Looks like it can be loaded with debit card, money pak (somewhere I read walmart as well).. No bill pay.. May be a good one to consolidate small dcs and BP at walmart..?

Bankcorp product, that's a huge downside..

Can someone please help me out - can you use the Serve website to load your serve account with this as a regular debit card without fees? If so, that is an easy way to unload any extra money on here.

Thanks very much.

Yes, as long as both cards are under the same name. Be prepared to provide Serve a picture of your ID and of the Chime card for verification. You can read more about that in the Serve thread.

Does anyone use chime card to load Serve/RedBird? I found that the transaction will show in both settled and pending transaction. You will have to call Chime support to manually clear the pending transaction. I have never seen this on other transaction or other cards.

Yes. The double entry automaticaly drops off after a week. Be careful with Serve. I have been using chime to laod serve for 6 months. I changed my credit card funding source and they asked for a copy of both my credit and debit card. They approved the credit card but removed my debit card telling me that prepaid debit cards are not permited.

Thanks. I've been calling them to manually remove the pending transactions. Maybe I could just let it drop off automatically. Thanks for reminding about Serve.

This looks new; I am sure it wasn't there when I last logged in three days ago. Judging by the verbiage on that page, they are not really promoting or encouraging the use of this feature. Apparently it's only check payments, not electronic transfers, so it's more similar to the bill pay functionality of T-Mobile Prepaid card than Serve, but it still looks promising. This card may be useful for something, after all. ;)

So no one has been assessed an inactivity fee on this yet?

Really? Would you mind sharing what you use for loading?

Sounds like, the answer turns outs to be: checks.
