150 people who found the link with no help? Who are these people? I am pretty sure that Foxx meant that he sent 150 links to these people. They were as "spoonfed" as I was with the person who posted it on this thread.

This is flyertalk and it is made to share info.

the idea that the people who got it from foxx are more likely to not have 10 accounts is ludicrous.

Link is dead. What a coincidence that it died the same day a blogger posted it for wider consumption.

Still works for me.

To clarify, the link to the initial page worked, but it wouldn't let the order go through after I completed all of the steps. Maybe others will have better luck.

Tried to PM you but your mailbox exceeds the limit.

Anyway, thanks to you for sharing and I'm glad I was able to get in before the coming shutdown.

The amount of ads on the milesmomma blog is mind blowing. My browser actually froze for several seconds as all the ads were loading. And the content (once you scroll down past all the ads) is just a rehash of the same stuff found on every other blog. Thanks for posting here so I can know which blogs not to visit in the future.

I've seen her elsewhere on the forum.
But then again, she's a self proclaimed "Miles and Points Advisor" :rolleyes:
I think I found a sub-title on my business card.

Or do something stupid and get themselves shut down. I.E. Make a billion accounts and have to call in. :rolleyes:

Go back to your hole where you came from.
I selectively gave the link to people. The people that ACTIVELY participated in this sub-forum. That actually cared about sharing information.

I never once gave it to the user that signed up just to PM me. What good are they to this community?

The 150 people foxx helped are brighter than the average since they knew it's important to keep it secret. Yeah, they were spoonfed but they were smart. Then the blogger came along and ruined it within 8 hours.

The correct link for those that want a US Bank prepaid card is here:

US Bank Contour Card

This is not the same product as the discontinued US Bank Buxx card. I'll leave it up to the reader to figure out if you should get this card or not.

It says the Contour prepaid card can be loaded at Visa Ready Links, which have many locations. Are visa ready links strictly cash only, or is this a YMMV thing?

I haven't tried, but there are several threads on FT about readylink. My understanding is it's usually cash only. Some have reported sucess with cc and $3.95 fee, but I have no idea where.

Which buxx? You may want to consider just adding a third teen. I remember a blogger writing about how he tried something similar with US buxx (setting up two parents - each with teens and some overlap). I'm not sure his combination, but buxx shut down both accounts. I believe he posted on this thread a year or so ago.

A $3.95 fee would be a deal breaker. Too spendy for liquidation.

Is 4 or 5 teens too many for a TD Go account? I have two teens ordered and don't want to kill the goose.

I've been maxing out at two teens per product in fears of getting shutdown. $2k month is a lot better than zero. This stuff isn't scalable. Do you really want to load another $2k of birds at the Wally?
