They GoBank customer service team told me today they are sending another card out Fedex. I would have paid for this 3 weeks ago.

Regardless this shows a dedicated company that cares.

Amex Serve Cash Deposit at CVS or 7-Eleven

I've seen some complaints from people who say CVS doesn't load the Serve card and while the info says 'participating' CVS stores most if not all do accept it. Here is my experience.

I walked into a CVS and there was no line of people waiting to pay and leave. This is what you need because if there is a line of people they may try and hurry you and say 'Serve? Never heard of it' Next!. Okay so I told the cashier that I wanted to load the card. They said guess what they never heard of this. They called the manager to the register who said - never heard of it.

So I said just swipe it and see what happens. Well something popped up on the screen that made them pause. The manager said put it in as a prepaid reload as if there was a Green Dot MoneyPak.

BINGO!!!!!!!! They asked me how much I wanted to load and I gave them the money.

I walked out and sent a text to Amex Serve '73783' BAL and bang the money was there in less than a minute.

Just to add that 7-Eleven is used to loading prepaid cards & their register steps them right through this no problem. There are though many many more CVS stores than 7-Eleven.
