Re: Walmart Amex Bluebird is Here Now!!!!

Big issue for this card: It is served by the AMEX network, which limits where you can use it.  If it was a Visa or MC, there would be a lot more options for its use by shoppers.

The sub account feature caught my eye, since I can give my kiddo, and DW their allowances for the month...lol.

I just signed on for this, and am going to use it as a "vacation" account. A forced savings/ out of sight, out of mind.

Not fond of that $2 ATM pull fee, if you're not enrolled into direct deposit though. Other than that, it's just straight forward.

I'll add more to this post down the road. Going to start with a 2% drop per week.

Beats the hell out of adding others as AU's onto my accounts.

No card in mail yet. Can't link mint app with this account. Verification took a while, as far as getting the ACH's from amex.

Ok. Got the card. Deposits take five days on the nose to clear.

This card/account is not ADP friendly. My HR dept did not like the generic print up that the DD info is posted to, and questioned it's validity...

Latest info:

 

Mint.com is finally in beta testing to link up with Amex BB, for those that are OCD with keeping an eye on every account.

Yes, I had the card. I didn't like their customer service. I think Serve is better.

Ron i would have to agree also, The serve allows me to use my cell to pay for things at the store utilizing the iris app and for extra security changes my card security numbers so that i don't have to worry about another target like breach..
