Hi!
Well....they have stopped claiming this stored value card builds credit, thanks to me.
The battle still rages with their marketinmg company...and will do so for some time into the future.
However, yesterday they decided to go a different direction: Let's tell consumers this is a checking account and get them to get this card that way! Only problem is: It is not a checking account and this is another fib. This time, I have informed the FBI...this is even more blatant fraud than the other claim. Check this out:

Go ahead and send the first email...then respond to the second one and get a UN and password within seconds. There it is: ..complete banking/checking account privileges...uhh. Nope.
From the "Wired Plastic" agreement:
"The value stored on the Card is not held in a checking or other consumer asset account at the Issuer" located here: https://secure1.galileoprocessing.com/apply/terms.html Oh...ops! In this agreement we learn:
1. Not a checking account
2. Can't write checks if it's not a checking account
3. Can't make deposits of checks written to you.
4. Can't make deposits of money orders either.
Nope, you have to add value @ Western Union and other places.
