UPS stores now USAA deposit branches.

[p-]

We talked before about how hard it was to get money into an USAA account; look what they have now!  This is from the USAA website:

_____________________________________________

USAA Easy Deposit is an easy way for all members to deposit a check into your USAA Bank checking or savings account at more than 2,000 The UPS Store® locations across the U.S.

With USAA Easy Deposit, you only need your USAA ATM/debit card and your endorsed check to make a secure deposit. You don't even need to provide personal information like your account number, PIN or even a deposit slip. Here's how it works at pre-identified The UPS Store locations:

• Give your endorsed check to The UPS Store associate, who will swipe your ATM card and scan your check for you.
• Confirm the deposit amount and The UPS Store associate will scan your check.
• Your deposit receipt will be printed on the back of your check, which will then be returned to you.
• Your account will be credited instantly.1

Hi, p-   I noticed you posted that the new feature is available to all members.

             Does that include limited members or full members only?

             When I logged in I didn't see a notice anywhere about this new feature.

              As a limited member, perhaps it's not offered to us.

              This feature would work for a personal check as well?

   If so, nice!!

I ended up taking the card. We have no UPS stores in the area so it was justifiable (in my mind) to break out of gardening mode and burn an inquiry. It hasn't shown up yet but I'm giddy about depositing a check through the iPhone, LOL!

Can UPS stores can deposit cash?

From what I've read on USAA's Facebook page, folks are not too thrilled with the UPS store deposits because they sometimes take from 3 to 10 days to post to your account.  According to what people post on the Facebook page, the ONLY really quick deposits that are quick every time are the ones that are transacted through one of the USAA Financial Centers that are located throughout the US. The deposits made there appear in your account right away, no waiting 24 hours or longer.  The closest one to us is several hours away in San Diego.    You can check for the one nearest you by clicking here. 

I am anxious to hear how the iPhone application works. Please let us know drkaje -- hopefully, it is instantaneous.

^ Soon as it's here (activated) I'll make a test deposit, see how long until funds are available, and report back to this thread.

I use USAA's deposit at home religiosuly!  Absolute great service!  NFCU's deposit at home sucks bad!!  NFCU has gone down hill as of late though....

I tried using the i-phone app and was unable too.  Aprantly you have to have a checking account and a credit card with USAA. I'm a full member but do not have a credit card with USAA. I only have a checking account and insurance.

As far as I know it is.  A survey about deposits popped up on the right hand side of their site, and when I clicked it I got the message I posted.  I haven't really tried it yet; I manage my stuff thorugh transfers from a big bank checking account.
