    Not quite... it's a promise to send you $25 debit card some time in the future if you order this prepaid card including you handing over you checking or saving account info so they can have access to it... Watch out...

    Yes, because American Express is in the habit of stealing money from people's bank accounts. Jeez, get a grip.

    You're jumping to a conclusion of what I wrote... A much more likely scenario will be an transfer error or accounting screw up you will be increasing your exposure to. If it's worth the $25 to you to open the door to your bank account to a company, then more power to you... just try not to spend your $25 all in one place...

    I ordered a prepaid card when there was that promotion where in you get $25 when you load $30 or more, they never added that money to my prepaid card, it's been three months.

    I did this when they first started the promotion. Since then I have gotten my $200 prepaid card. I have called to confirm that they will do it. I still have time to wait but until then I took some screen captures of the promotion so that I can quote them on their offer if time takes too long. I do agree with zzyzx. It does open your information to possible risk in case they get hacked. This is the reason that I didn't take advantage of the open up a checking account and we will give you free money with some of the banks in the area but I already had an account with American Express and I check my accounts very often. I advise everyone to do the same.
