Has anybody tried onbudget.com no fee prepaid debit card?
« on: May 30, 2015, 04:59:19 PM »
Hi,

I was searching for a prepaid card that my gf and I could share and came across the onbudget website.  Has anyone used it?  I am finding no reviews online, mostly marketing copy.

I signed up regardless but it does not let you budget for 30 days.  Not sure why.

Thanks

They are less than 2 years old but even so there should be some online comments about their product.  I personally, would see there being no comments at all as a red flag.

Beyond that, by pre-loading a card you are in fact giving your money to a third party to make money from until you spend what you have pre-loaded.  In other words, you are acting as a bank and giving out a free loan.  In return for which I would say you are receiving very little.
