Bill Pay In Manhattan Updates




As a follow up to the post to bill paying in Manhattan without Walmart, any transaction over $500 requires your license to be inputted into the system as well as your picture being taken. I was not pleased with either. The clerk also told me that location I had visited had a $900 limit per transaction, but other locations could be a larger transaction.

That being said, it changes the math a little bit with a 1% card. If we could max out at $2000 per transaction it would have been a $.0067/point opportunity. Instead at $900 it becomes a $.0086/point.

Cumulative Load Fee Cumulative Cash Balance Points Earned Bill Pay fees $/pt generated
2.5 517.5 518 3.95 0.012451737
5 1035 1035 3.95 0.008647343

 

 

If you’re in Manhattan and are striking out with Vanilla Reloads, I would recommend this option. It takes a couple of steps and a tiny bit more expensive ($.0086/pt compared to $.0078), but at least you can still manufacture spend.

The next experiment that I plan to try is a One Vanilla card.

  • How desperate would have to be to accept being treated like a criminal getting their mugshot just to do billpay for a lousy $1K?

  • Tried one out. $2.95 for billpay up to $2500. $0.99 for money order up to $1k.

    Sounds good but two problems:
    1) use of a debit card adds $1 to either transaction.
    2) no split between debit cards.

    Did a MO with a one vanilla, but it cost me $1.99 for a $498.01 MO. So it can be done, but it’s sucking up a lot in fees, $1.10 more than at RA. (It wouldn’t be horrible for $1k money orders via paypal debit.)

    At this point what I’d love is a RA that doesn’t have a “broken” money order machine. Have one of those around?

  • He caught fire from July on and finished the season with
    101 RBI and 31 homers. The game has some really good physics and mechanics, and allows you to do some really neat stuff
    that you wouldn’t be able to with any other game.
    It is there that the source claims Vonn suffered an emotional “breakdown” that caused her to
    retreat to Woods’ car.
