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!

I can confirm that it was not my account that had issues.

Yes, it works with an SPG card. Why would SPG be any different?

Bump, anyone know what's going on with this?

I just can't believe that they allow themselves to hold on to so many peoples money due to a mistake of their own! This just does not make sense.
I still don't have my money from March 16.
