Just got card for wife. Gave home phone and had no problem. The only thing was I had to use a different email address.

I tried searching for this but couldn't find:
Is it possible to link more than 1 bank account to bluebird account?

Check the BB site.  See if they allow a 2nd bank account.

Or do you mean can 2 BB's be linked to 1 bank account.  IDK, but probably ok if both names are on the bank account.

The question, which I raised only after checking bb site,  was can I link more than 1 bank account to a bb.

Beware, when paying bills with bb, if you have more than 1 account with same payee, make sure the payment goes to right account! I tried paying my mortgage today and made sure to click correct 1 (saved as morgage 1) yet they listed payment to mortgage 2! I was able to cancel after going through a couple of screens. It would have been a disaster if it payment went there. Mortgage 1 is a large payment and mortgage 2 is small - less than 100. So again verify payment went to right account.

Is there a limit to how much money can b transferred in and out of bluebird?

For all those that pay their CC through BB Bill Pay and have multiple CC issued by the same bank listed in their Payee's, Is there any way to tell which CC you paid since they don't show the card nicknames anymore when you look at the transactions page?

It seems like you can't to tell which CC was paid last.

The revised website blows.

is there any risk in just writing yourself or spouse a check every time you want to cash out.  I.E. billpay to your spouse.

Could they shut you down for that?

People have reported doing that without a problem.

I write myself a check and have not had any issues with it. Could be "paying" yourself online may be a flag, but writing a check is much easier and faster.

+1    I like the check twist.  They probably pay no attention to the payee.

The only issue is that the checks will run out eventually and you'll have to pay for more

Is it safer to write a check to amex then billpay? once you do it can you pay by phine with the check (due friday)? Also is paying your amex with bb a risk for your bb account or amex(my amex got shut down so couldnt give a flip)?

I used to click edit first, then it shows cc info... Now, I believe that it shows whole cc acount #, so for me it was easier...

Anyone have any issue using billpay on the site? Tried to send a check for $1,000 with $1,000 in my account and it gives an error about not enough funds. Writing a check is no issue though.

it's been 100 checks for free for a while, (first order), so that's good for a year -
@ 2 checks per month....

Good luck Trying to figure out which Chase CC you paid once the transaction has been completed.

If I understood your problem right then I've gotten that and I logged in the next day and saw my bill payed. Sometimes it can register as like hitting it twice so for the 2nd payment there is not enough funds.

I only tried it because a friend told me he had the issue. It wouldn't even let it pay. Kept showing the error.

Yes had the same issue on 3 different accounts. must have something to do with the new site setup.
really irritating. had to leave a penny balance in order to pay the bills.
