Since October 12, 2015, the prepaid REDcard (Redbird) can only be loaded at Target with cash. It can still be loaded online with a bank-issued debit card, up to $200/day and $1K/month.

Therefore, for MS (manufactured spending) Redbird is now considered dead. RIP!

It was postponed till this coming Tuesday because their representative couldn't fly in, so I'll let you know next week! Guess you aren't going in the end?

Just got a call for this Wednesday... who else is going?

Just wondering if withdrawing money online from my redcard to my bank account within 24 hours of a load would raise some flags, or should i just wait like a week?  What would typically get someone's redcard banned?

That never happened yet, so there's no exact way of unloading REDcard that will ensure you are never shut down. Waiting a week imo is too long; I wait 1-2 days before bill paying.

Calendar month
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Anyone have trouble with paying Chase Mortgage with RedCard....they ask for a 5 or 9 number acct number...
Don't forget to check that it will not be going to principle payment
