I hope it's not dead, I just finally got mine! Actually I got 4 and have activated 2, with 2 that are still in the sealed package with $1 on each. Didn't want to go too crazy at first.
Anyway, I loaded 2 of the RedCards this morning with $1400 each. Only weird thing was that when the CSR put in $1400 as the amount it said "amount too small". So we tried a higher number, no luck. Having read DDF I knew this could actually mean the number was too high. So, I loaded $1,000 and then $400 on the same card w/o a problem. Did that for both cards.
I'm no where near the expert level of many of you, but just getting the cards while on a biz trip was pretty awesome. The closes place to me is 2 hours away and that store charges for the cards. I got these at $0 fee and now just got 2800 MR. Again, it's not going to take me 1st Class to the Maldives, but it's something for virtually no work.
Thanks so much to everyone for all their sharing and helping.
