I just signed up the new serve (blue color version) on line. Wondering how to waive the monthly fee without doing direct deposit? Pls advise. Thank you, everyone!

Serve for tax payments?
 
Anyone have experience using serve to pay taxes due? I’ve got about $4,500 that I need to send to the IRS and see two options:
1. Send the check directly to the IRS with my social and “tax year 2018” on it,or
2. Use serve to send a check to my home address made to the IRS where I can then sentd to the IRS along with the correct form.

(Before anyone suggests, I will be using the IRS promoted credit card processors to send an additional $3,000, for a total of $7,500)

Any recommendations on how I should go about this?

Has anyone tried loading Serve with their Blue Business Plus card to see if it earns MR?

Did they stop sending emails on cash reload?

I think it has a glitch. BB no email too. This happened before. It is not normal.

I'm guessing a glitch?

I had a cash reload earlier in the week - got the email right away
Did another one on Sunday - still no email, but serve balance shows the updated balance (and I did get the WM receipt)

I noticed no emails today either. Just loaded at a few WMs. Balance is there though.

My understanding was FD/DG auto-drain. How does this work? I tried to load $400 on VGC (2x200) but was declined and then told they can't load with debit, only cash (will have to let that location cool off).

Does SC OVMC work with Serve at FD? I could've swear I read some previous comments that they work with Serve at FD but when I tried loading them this weekend, I got invalid card # error message. Since this is my first time doing it, I just politely apologized and walked away instead of burning that spot. Just wondering if I picked the wrong GC at SC since OVMC won't load to Serve at either WM or FD.

Tried to load $600 split into 3 200s, it printed out a small receipt thing saying "debit not available max equals 4". What's going on?
Yesterday, it did that when I tried to load $800 split in 4 onto bluebird, but it let me load 400 yesterday in one transaction onto both bb and serve. Today, I asked to load 600 on bb with success, but when we tried 600 on serve, transaction not allowed.

OK, I have read several pages of this thread and not found an answer to this, so don't yell at me if this is a total newbie question (well, it is a newbie question). Is there any benefit/drawback to withdrawing 100% using at ATM? Or mixing ATM with bank withdrawals? I am fortunate enough to have the appropriate ATM very close to my work and my bank, so it would be easy to withdraw cash and deposit. I am not doing huge numbers, just maxing out 2k a month on an Amex card. Thanks.

New Increased Serve Fees (Green and Grey)
 
The new Serve fees are in place. Green is $6.95/month and Grey is $7.85/month. Not sure if old cards are grandfathered with the lower fees.

Pls report any DPs.

getting a second serve card with same name and email address ?
 
the serve help page state one can have up to 5 serve account. so I'm interested to getting my second one.
I have question regarding how to apply for the 2nd serve card. Can I use the exact same name, and email address as my first card? or will it need a different email when registering or activating as AMEX may see this as different account?

mySimon411 Apr 16, 2019 2:07 pm

You can use exact everything including same password but diffredif user or log in ID

No. I've tried a half dozen different FD and the transaction wouldn't go through. Vanilla Visa works fine. Non-vanilla MC work. But a vanilla MC does not.
