Is citi credit cards the only company that accepts NWBuxx as phone debit card payment? I've done this with my citi Premier and cit AA Plat. Thanks

What about BofA?
Does NW have the same time restrictions with the number of times you can change the CC on file, like USB does?

Citi Premier posted As Purchase (loading NW Buxx)
Has anyone recently tried to load NW Buxx with a Citi TY Premier? Did it post as a purchase? It seems like it should based on the Prestige data point in the wiki above but just wanted to know if anyone could confirm that the Premier also codes as purchase. Thanks in advance!
I tried loading NW BUXX with Citi TY Premier MasterCard last week; it posted as a purchase. Beforehand I set my CA to zero just to be safe. I've done 2 card purchases and 1 reload without any issues on the Citi TY premier.

Any one has issues adding new credit card to NW buxx.
I tried to add my Alaska visa and it wont allow me to add
"Account information could not be processed. Please verify the information you entered and try again."
I have successfully changed cards before, likes of citi prestige,chase freedom,chase united. But i get the issue only with my alaska.
Any clue?

I have opened NWBuxx account added my SO and daughter. I heard you can add upto 4 family members by altering the name, social etc. The name and social has to match so how can you get 4 buxx cards?
I know my SO can open an account, add myself and my daughter as family members but I'm trying to keep upto 4 cards under one account for ease of managing the account, otherwise you have to log in two accounts to load funds etc. I just need to add one or maximum of 2 cards, to get total of 4 under my account. How can you do this?

I don't think anyone has info on this. My attempted transaction with a Fidelity Visa was declined. The cash advance limit is $300, and I was, of course, trying to load $500. I don't know if it would have posted as a purchase, though,but I simply cannot try.

Is Club Carlson card still not a good option to load?
I've read that Business Club Carlson can't even be used to load, and even if it loads, the points don't post.
If the Club Carlson card works, this would be great since I can practically get 50000 more points and 1 free US weekend certificate if I load $10,000, which would make the card not a bad option to keep.
