So they can't reverse a direct deposit to your Rush?

eseller · #46 01-28-2009

If the money has already posted to your Rushcard, they cannot take it back.

If the deposit has not hit your Rushcard, then yes, I suppose they can still reverse them while "in transit".

^^^^^^^^
Is your Rushcard in your real name?
I looked at it and it does look kinda interesting. I have never used it.

I saw on the sign up screen that they, Rushcard, wants your SSN.
So I am guessing that you MUST use your real name.

I see how you can get money out of Paypal onto your Rushcard.
But I also read this:
"Everyone Approved
*pending verification of identity

* Transfers MUST be in the name of the cardholder

* Funds cannot be transferred from your Prepaid Visa RushCard to PayPal"

SO the way I am interpreting the sign-up screen & the Paypal instructions is this:

Your Rushcard MUST be in your real name because they want your SSN at sign up.
Any transfers from Paypal to Rushcard MUST be in the name of the Rushcard holder.
If I am right then this card would NOT work for any "Stealth Account" than is not in the Rushcard holders real name.
And you can not get a Rushcard in a "Stealth" name due to the SSN requirement.

Please let me know if I am understanding it correctly.

Yes on #1 and #4. You have to use a real social security number and also a driver's license number to get your Rushcard, you can't just make up names. Same as when you open a checking account to use with Paypal, they're requiring the same things that the bank does.

#2 I don't agree with. I've never had a deposit rejected for the names not matching. THE FOLLOWING IS ONLY MY OPINION>>>>>>>I think they're telling us that on the website to discourage stealth use, but in reality, I do not believe that the names are compared or checked.

eseller,I like most of your answers about this card. BUT (& I specialize in buts), would it be
better to say that it is not likely that the name differences are checked?
If we accept 'reality' it implies that this card is 100% fine. My feeling is that
it is not. By the very nature of the thread title, aspkin is after as much info as possible.
If you agree, would you amend your post,please?

Oh, yes, the "in reality" is based on my opinion and my experience only!

Voip works, see UK forum. voipfone.co.uk
vouchers 3v work for paypal only
visavcc.com is better than 3v as cheaper, almost instant, no need to amend address if needed, can get one each for ebay and paypal

isn't visavcc.com for US only?

Peoples bank worked for me on two accounts

**aspkin** · #59 02-11-2009

People's United Bank?

https://www.peoples.com/

Most banks should work regardless, but it's nice adding confirmed anything.

siashay · #60 02-11-2009

Yes, I used them for two accounts. One has been up for a year on feb 18th the other has been up for four months.

**aspkin** · #61 02-11-2009

Thanks Siashay, it's added.

coolandcalm · #62 02-11-2009

If you are a member of a credit union, find out if the credit union has "holiday" club savings accounts, ususally the credit union will give you as many as you like for different things you could be saving for like travel, auto repairs, etc. Each new sub account gives you a different account number, or at least an extension of your main account for example main account 12345, holiday account could be 12345-01, trust me, they work fine with paypal.

Update on Rushcard -

I have information from an associate of mine.

They held a deposit where the names on the PP and the Rushcard account were just slightly different. Same last name, but different first names. And two days later, the PP account got limited - not 100% sure if Paypal called them or not, I don't have all the details.

**aspkin** · #64 02-15-2009

Haha.. I knew Rushcard wouldn't last.

Thanks,

siashay · #65 02-16-2009

Hi all, I just open another paypal account using guarantybank. I just got the 2 small deposits and everything went good so far. Now for the real trick. I do something that many here say is a big no no. I withdrawal my paypal funds back into my bank account. So far I haven't lost any accounts doing it this way. So we will see. I will give it a few weeks and payments and let you know if it works.

coolandcalm · #66 02-16-2009

That is a good bank, i have used them before with no problems
