I read an old post stating a week of ATM limit means seven days in between (rolling). However, I have not tested it myself having using it only sparingly.

You or an approved designated Gift Giver may load value up to 5 times in one month onto the Card. Upon authorization, this will cause monies to be funded into the Card and be available for use by the Teen to make designated transactions.
im only at 3 with a balance of 700.00 not sure why my last load of 300 is not going through. could be FA on the CC. but the error on NW says maximum reloads allowed or something liek that.

Anyone else is having problems recently reversing the $1 ATM fee from Allpoints machines @ NW Buxx?

The first time they told me the terms &conditions changed &they would not waive.
I reviewed the terms and conditions posted online for my card and found that indeed Allpoint ATMs are still listed as free.
So I called again and spoke to another rep. She did say something in the rules changed as of earlier in the month, so she could see what the previous rep was talking about. BUT, they are still supposed to check the terms and conditions of the individual card. So she reversed the fee.

So um, can I register this card for myself and do the whole reloading for ms even though I'm 21 and have no children? Because for the nationwide bux thing there are two types of enrollments, one for parents, and one for family and friends. I'm not sure which one to enroll in. Otherwise should I ask my parents to simply make an account and then allow me to fund/ms the account by myself?
Also I know how the in-store credit card reload for redbird has been shut down, but this item should still work for in store reloads right? (not for online reload, since it's seen as pre-paid as stated in the thread).

Also about the part below. Does it mean that only TD issued cards can be used to fund the card? I can't tell if it's td debit/credit card or td debit/td credit card. Sorry for all the questions. (NVM read the terms and conditions on td, and it said td issued cards only as stated here on flyer)
"We're changing how you can fund your TD Go Card. Account owners and friends and family members will only be able to load TD Go Card(s) using a TD Bank Debit or Credit Card, or by direct deposit. "
