Anyone used either of these offshore funding methods?

[UT-Longhorn]

Withdrew everything a few months ago after ncaa hoops with the new promotion and move and now that im settled im wanting to reload at olympic with 5 dimes. Can anyone tell me if either of these sources are reputable and worth using? I typically do wire transfers or fedex a check, but the accounts department recommended these two new funding methods, thought id check here first.
Thanks

netspend is very easy and reliable

other one have no idea.

I have used both. Would reccomend Netspend, but both have been problem free.

can you drop a short note re: how netspend works?

can you fund with a credit card for instance?

what books now accept this method?

thanks

I called their customer service phone # and never got an answer, just kept asking for my card #.

The online app says ten days to get the card, do any of the retailers allow you to get the card in person? I see my local grocery store is listed as a place to reload it, I wonder if they will sell the card?

how did you guys get your card?

if your looking to load 5 dimes those methods arent going to work too well. www-card is a prepaid visa you buy with your visa card. these is something like a 230 max and there a 4 dollar fee each time. that means you would have to go throuhg the process like 20 times.

i think netspend is a 200 dollar limit, i could be wrong but thats the most i could purchase at my local store.

UT-Your local Check cashing places will have these cards in stock. Check Smart is the chain I get them from.

Don't know about limits never put more than a nickel on the card on at a time. They charge $2 bucks to put the money on the card and then netspend charges u $1 for every transaction on the card. I really like it, also for cashing out u have to wait for a check. But anyways it gets there fast.
