I’ve had my NetSpend Prepaid Visa card for about a year now, and it’s one of the best financial “items” to own. With the quick pace of today’s society, I’ve found that while cash is more than welcome into my bank account, I use my debit card more than cash. Those credit card commercials aren’t joking. When I have to sit behind someone in the McDonald’s drive-in, I get so impatient with people who’re counting out $8.00 worth of nickels.
It seems I’ve digressed a little, but counting change slows down sales, and most importantly, it slows down people’s lives. There are lots of individuals who can’t get bank accounts. There are people who can open up savings accounts but can’t get a checking account. This means the individual can’t have a debit card through their bank. I, for one, believe that direct deposit is best when you can swipe a card from anywhere in the United States of America and shop comfortably (or pay your bills online or over the telephone) instead of just getting direct deposit to your savings account. What if you don’t have a car?
To purchase the NetSpend Debit Card is only $10.00 and an extra $2.00 every time you load the card. Most of my funds are direct deposited onto my NetSpend Prepaid Visa card instantly, and I have no issues. The card also offers an neat feature that sends you a text message to your phone, free of charge, whenever you use your NetSpend card. When you purchase a card and activate it you can sign up for a NetSpend online account and track your purchases and deposits more efficiently.
Until the next post, much love, peace, and medicated hair grease

P.S. The card itself cost $10 and if you have direct deposit they don`t charge you the 2 bucks to load the card. You`re only charged the loading fee when you upload money on the card yourself. I`ve even signed up for my paypal funds to come to my NetSpend card. Hope this extra info helped
