I have been loading Reloadit cards to my T-mobile card and then using my T-mobile card to load my Serve card at Walmart. No issues at all. Have been doing a few thousand a month for a while now and have had no issues.

Here is a post I made about what I do.

Can you use it as a debit? If so, go try and report back.

There is ACH into Serve. That's either direct deposit or using the add funds from Bank account. Yes, that's a thing.

Yes, you can load funds from T-Mobile to Serve by swiping the debit card in store.

thanks for the guide.

do you have datapoints for people being shutdown for abusing the reinbursement benefit? if that is true i may skip the tmobile card completely and straight from reload to serve... (im planning on doing around 15-20k a month)

Has anyone who has been requested to send copy of photo ID and credit card via secure document upload gotten the error message "That upload didn't work. Please try again."? I keep getting that message, on both my wife's account and mine.

I got the error message when submitting my second online funding request for $200 (likely because I am using an Amex card issued by another bank). Called in today and they sent me the email with instructions for the document upload, but i just can't get it to accept my upload (and I am doing as PDF and it is under 4MB, per the instructions).

PDF consistently fails. Use JPEG.

Data point: I was able to load $500 to my new Blue Serve using a OV at both DG and FD without incurring any load charges. As always YMMV but there was no problem doing these transactions here in upstate NY.

You can load with Debit at DG now?

Kate is a flyertalk acronym.

Can someone confirm that Vanilla gift cards can be loaded the full $500 at Family Dollar? Unless you have first hand experience.:)

Loaded Blue Serve today at 2 different DG's. Used a $500 OV at each store. I hadn't seen anyone post success at DG loading with a OV (didn't read every post).

I'm all done for Oct. And Sunday couldn't come soon enough. I'll have to do a test run at my local DG to see if my area is one of the lucky ones to allow this. Thanks for the datapoint.

JPEG worked, thanks for the help!

Been doing alot of reading here but can't find the answer to this question.

I want the Old Blue Serve card. I understand that temporary card account number has to have the number 71 in it to activate under the old plan.

Problem is - you can't see the number when you buy it at the store unless you rip the box open.

Is there a way to tell before the purchase? Can I assume all the Blue serve at Walgreens is old?
