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!

You probably should have posted it in the Redcard dying thread.

Yes. The first thing it asks how much you want to load. Then it shows a screen saying item can't be paid for with a Target gift card, and to press K1 to continue. The next screen is the itemized list of purchases, which will just be your RC load if that's all you're getting. The rep may ask if that's all, then has to press a key that lets you pay with your favorite method via the customer terminal. Then you tell the last 4 digits to the rep, and then you get your receipt.

It's lots simpler than it seems. They will definitely get what's happening after the first step or two, and then they will know what to do in the future. Most reps that haven't seen it before are actually appreciative and think it's cool that I taught them something new :)
Thanks. It worked amazing except that the second time there was a fraud alert... Couldn't get it off till I was gone...

Damn barclays and their damn sensitivity to target large loads.
That and the inability to validate the charges through the app or via email link.
