Is Netspend perfect?
I received yesterday a prepaid card from Netspend. After calling to check if I can use for MS porpoises they told me I can deposit money orders on line and use debit or credit cards(gift cards?) in CVS to load the card, also they provided me of a routing ad checking account number so I would be able to pay my expenses in credit cards. Do you have experience with this? ideas?

If it was or is it would have been more so without you putting a spotlight on it. There are threads already on the topic.

You actually asked them if MS purposes are allowed? Netspend is one of the most notorious anti-MS of the prepaid cards. They banned me back in 2012 for doing a few bill pays to my Ink after loading Vanilla reloads....like $1500 worth. My SSN is still banned as I found out when I tried to pick it up again at a local grocery store last year. Good luck to you!

I just loaded the card using a 500 dollars mastercard gift card family dollar. Only issue was paying 3.95 fee. Tomorrow I will try deposit mone yorders using the online application.

I think the OP's question has been answered. As there is an existing thread on Netspend, I'm going to close this. If there are additional questions about NetSpend, please ask them here:
