Beware before signing up for the checking/debit account offered through Bluebird by American Express - offered at Walmat. When you make a purchase with the debit card your account balance will be printed or displayed on the merchants copy of the receipt. Several merchant showed me this as a warning and told me that they have never seen this happen with any other bank service provider, only Bluebird by American Express. This is a clear voilation of privacy. If you don't want every merchant or anyone who handles your card to know exactly how much money you have depositred with this bank, do not get this card, because they will have access to that information! I called and reported this problem and they responded by asking me if I wanted to close my account, of course my answer was YES!
