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!

Just loaded $5,800 of Visa gift cards!

One of the three mangers by the counter was very suspicious, the other 2 were fine with it. He kept on asking the other mangers if its OK, and they said yes. After $2,000 he told the other managers that they have to speak after to change the policy, and when i left, he told me that next time i come it probably wont work, because they are changing the policy. I asked why, and he said that every store can decide what not to do. so i gave 2 red cards to my brothers and finished all $5,800.

If that's true, I guess moving to an area that has the least manufacture spenders is the only solution  ;D

I'm sorry all you people, but the moment he saw the first visa gift card he didn't like the whole thing. He asked the other manager how many times in the past did he loaded such cards...

I am not new to the game, and when the person says to the other manager that they have to change their policy, you have to chap in fast....

For the record I have loaded over 100k of visa gift cards at this location in the past 2 months.

I am glad you are not new to this. Some of us can only dream of doing 100k. You might want to ask yourself why some don't have these problems and others do.

Because it depends on the location... And how many people like us go there....

Just 3 months ago I was doing 60k an month at Atlantic target, and I would bring them donuts etc, and they loved when I came. It took just a few idiots to mess it up.

I am now not In Brooklyn so it's a totally different story. Before I left I went to the queens location and even they stopped gift cards and limited credit cards, someone recently messed it up.

Some would think that doing 100k in two months at the same store would be a person that messes it up for everyone.  ;)
