May I strongly suggest looking into Green Dot Bank. I certainly have a story to tell about my experiences with it, along with I am confident, a very large number of other persons.

Great tip, Robert - I will definitely look into them - I suspect you are right.

It has the potential to be a very deep and messy rabbit hole. If you need any help with information or such, please do not hesitate to ask me. I think given how many fixed income people and so-called unbanked individuals who rely solely upon their all too easy to obtain debit/pre-paid cards, along with what is arguably one of the most terrible customer service systems makes an investigation into the bank well worth the deep dive.

Thanks, Robert - they definitely "bank" on easy access and prey on consumers who have few other options. Certainly a mess worth looking into.
