I'm in CA, daughter in NY. I have no problems using her address, but the Buxx card is useless if I cannot do a credit card load using my credit cards with CA billing addresses.

Discontinued product. Not sure if the backdoor registration is still available.

How can I apply for US Bank Buxx online? Cannot find it at https://usbank.visabuxx.com/. Called USBank, and was asked to apply for its contour prepaid card. But contour doesn't allow being funded with CC.

Heads up. Don't be so quick at the draw activating them.
Asks you to enter your card number, I hit # after and it ended the call. Just enter and wait until it gives you the PIN #. Gives you the option to change it.

Ugh, I hit # too fast, were you able to get the PIN?

I know this has been said before, but just to rehash, i loaded 517.50 x 2 across 2 usb cards each with one CC today. So the max load is 2080 per card, a little more than the stated 2000 in the wiki

You mean $1K load stated in the wiki?
Since you loaded $1035 x 2 USB cards.

Just made it back from unloading my 2 cards. Took freaking ever to unload 1K. Especially at $200 per unload. :td:

Thanks for the PIN info, I will try again tomorrow. It didn't offer me any options except 0 to speak with CS.

I'm trying to figure out what else I can pay on Evolve Money to avoid the ATM.

I hope they last, because it is such an easy way to unload GC's that don't play nice at Wally's.

What you typically run into is limits on how often a credit card can be used in one day (up to 4 times in my experience) and how often it can be used in a rolling 30 day period (seems to be a $5k limit, including fees).
I've updated the wiki with the correct info.

Yeah, I was able to use the same cc only 4 times. How long before I can use it another few times to max out the 5k limit?
