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!

The RC CSR told me to go ahead and dispute $1000 with my cc and they will accept the dispute.
I went ahead and disputed the charge with amex,
Amex just came back and told me that target denied the claim and provided them with a signed itemized receipt.
What could I do know? called RC and not getting anywhere  :'(
  email corporate amex chairmansoffice@aexp.com

I think you can, but why bother? You can Tavares out up to 10k a month  I believe, abs the refund dues not count toward the 5k cash load. I did both this month

No no for same account not for higher limit. Have the primary card in one place and have another card in another place loading to the same account

I tried to PUTAC but they told me that the only thing they can do is make subaccounts which can't be reloaded
