... in response to ATM Card... How to?, posted by Howard on Mar 1, 2004Well Howard,
I am sure you will get a few replys on your post.
I can tell you what I did
I have a savings account in my bank
I got an ATM card with a separate account with a pin number
I sent the ATM card to my wife using Fed Ex it took 5 days and $35
When she got it we tested it to see how it worked
I emailed her the PIN numbers
It worked fine without problems
I go on line and get my bank and transfere the amount I want on the ATM
they can only withdraw what I put into the account
Sending it Fed Ex was expensive and I am sure it can be cheaper using the Post Office. At the time I did not want to take chances and paid the price. If I was going to do it today I would send it priority mail but it would take about 10 days.
I can also go on line and see when and how much was taken out of the ATM account
There is a charge for the use of the ATM but very cheap, not like Western Union.
Hope this helped as it was this site that I got the idea and information.
Bye
Peter Lee
