Much like NetSpend, this is a card for those who can't acquire a checking account/debit card.
 
These people are just too happy! Celebrate your bad credit rating!
 
I have been in that situation, paying for 2 homes and not making enough money hurts.
 
I was denied a checking account, I had to pay my bills with money orders.
 
I am pleased to say that my credit rating is over 800 again, I don't need some prepaid card.

I guess they're basically like those Visa gift cards.  I think that, even with those, you can add money to the card.

I don't know what kind of people they think they're addressing, but they dont think very highly of them.
They state that with this card, you can get direct deposit and get paid faster. Well, yes. This may be true...for ONE pay period. After that, you're back to waiting the same amount of time for your check.
I gotta wonder how many people don't think this through and get the card for that reason only.

I no longer buy anything made by Brinks.
 
I have a padlock by Brinks that you can literally just stick a stick in and open it.
It opens faster that way than with the actual key.
 
So, if their prepaid MasterCard is anything like their padlocks... no thanks!
