You guys seriously need to get over yourselves.
We are self-evangelized criminals; whether you want to admit it or not.
Money does not come from nowhere. The US government can do it; none of us can. We are scheming and exploiting financial institutions at every point we can.
There is no such thing as a "deal," or "MS avenue." There are methods of taking advantage of available incentivizing marketing offers to perform actions that were never intended by the original creators. In video games, these are called glitches.
There's the utilitarian view that these financial institutions deserve our leeching because they demonstrably squeeze and suck their customers dry. The Kantian view reminds us that even Robin Hood is still a thief; and so are we.
We are glorified thieves and I'm okay with that. Are you?
It doesn't make sense to attach these "deals" or "entitlement" to our egos or backlash against others who work against our methods.

All I was doing was what I was always doing which was using my credit card to load my prepaid card. Then all of the sudden it stopped working because they lowered their limit to $250 but i didn't know that. So i called customer service and they told me that it had been lowered. Then there was a long pause. When asked if the person was still there he said he was reviewing my account because a lot of people were using the cards inappropriately whatever the hell that means. He then said he would have to refer my account over to another department for review. Next thing you know i get a cancellation email. I know, I shouldn't have called to complain. But having one of the posters on this site apply for 75 cards was not a very good idea either. Post script: a buddy of mine applied for a card over a week ago, and has not received it yet. Something tells me he never will.

I dont understand what all the fighting is about, Everything changed on 1/25/15 when they reduced the max from $2500 per day for $2.95 to $250 max per week for that same $2.95
The OP nor any blogger killed this since it wasnt mentioned prior to 1/25 when they reduced their limits. Now had the OP posted about this say on 1/10 and let the cat out of the bag and people signed up for the cards like water, Id agree with most folks, but clearly the OP only posted once it died, why i have no idea but they didnt kill it since it was already dead

My take on this.
The Haves, the Have Nots, and the Clever.
The Haves saw the prepaid card as a future opportunity. Being their own guinea pig, hoping for one to work in a way not intended.
The Clever are probably asking themselves questions like: Are there more cards like this? How many different banks own these cards? I got to start trying things out myself.
The Have Nots will not try anything untested and come on FT asking questions instead finding out the answers and contributing.
I like to think of myself as some what clever.
