In this mobile society, it can be difficult to deal with traditional banks. Moving from place to place does not always work out well with your traditional bank because the bank may not be a nation-wide bank. And many banks claim that they offer free checking but then you end up paying for the paper checks themselves, and then you can get charged for overdrafts.
With Vision Premier Prepaid Visa debit cards overdrafts are impossible. And if the customer signs up for direct deposit of their payroll checks (or benefits checks) into the debit card there are no weekly fees. Debit cards can be used just like credit cards, but they can also protect the consumer from finance charges and transaction fees. The Vision Premier Prepaid Visa card even offers online billpay services! Another benefit of debit cards is that you can use them at ATMs to withdraw money, and if you should lose your wallet or purse your money is protected by the PIN number, so it is safer to carry than cash.
I like the direct deposit features because there is no risk of a check being lost or stolen during the transition from the issuing company and your mailbox. The money goes straight into the account, safe and secure.
