And now the $11K minimum spend for my recent app o rama is going to be that much harder to reach. Completing the $20K spend for 100K Avios just got daunting......
Paying it off just got harder. |

It seems to me that it would have been far easier for them to do away with debit loads at WM instead of mass closing accounts. I see little use for debit loads (at least anything of any significant $ amount) outside of MS. Given the number of reports of very-lightly-MSed cards getting shut down, this is clearly not a very conservative approach.

Has ANYONE actually used Serve/BB as a credit card for purchases? Perhaps that was the trigger. I see plenty of people saying they didn't do max loads and only used some BP or checks, but no one has said they used it as a CC. Perhaps that was the trigger? No CC usage, bang, dead?
I know I used RB at Target, but never used my Serve as a CC. |

I disagree, BB's target market is unbanked. they need the ability to load at WM.

One BB and one Serve shut down. Oddly, two other Serve accounts NOT. These two are newer VIP accounts. While I've not had them long, I've maxed them with GC loads at WM every month since I've had them.
Will have to see if I can still load them. |
Did my first load of the month yesterday and now got the shutdown email today. Thankfully I am in a ms lull as my 6 months on a certain 5% card was over a couple of weeks ago.
Goodbye to at least 95% of bb accounts after the shutdown. |

My guess is no. While everyone is calling this an account "shut-down", it isn't. Amex isn't closing your account, they're asking you to close your account. No negative credit report impact there.

Damn.......oh well.....NEXT
Some moron at Amex thinks we're actually loading CASH on these cards.
(Maybe some criminals actually are......) Two of three cards AmeXED Ran $5k through both for the last 37 months. FWIW...neither had any credit card-type usage (i.e. retail swipes). |
