Hello Kitty (09/16/04)
FULL STORY:
One of the coolest prepaid cards to come down the pike this year is the
"Hello Kitty Debit MasterCard." The new card offers a free one-year
subscription to Elle Girl magazine. However, the card carries a lot of
fees like many prepaid cards. Make sure you understand the terms. The
new "Hello Kitty Debit MasterCard" charges a $1.00 per minute fee to
speak to a live agent, a 50 cent fee anytime a transaction is declined
at an ATM or at the point of sale, an annual fee of $14.95, a monthly
maintenance fee of $2.95, and a $10.00 fee to cancel the card. Under the
program, inquiry fees through an IVR are 25 cents each while inquiries
via an ATM run 50 cents each. Cardholders are also charged a $5.00 fee
for making a cash withdraw from a teller within a bank or for using an
international ATM. A $15 fee to replace a card and $10 fee to reinstate
an account is also assessed. The new card is issued by BANKFIRST and
marketed by Legend Credit. For more information visit: http://www.hellokittycard.com.
