I am looking to purchase one VMI card due to it's many benefits while dealing with different e-currencies. But at the same time I have heard that they are not working properly, specially they hang while withdrawing fund from the ATM. I am not going to use it only for PayPal withdrawal but there may be many other uses which I am looking for. I have also heard about PayPal limitations or blockage of the card by PayPal while trying to withdraw fund to it. At the same time many persons are using them safely without any problem. Now I am confused if VMI cards are worth buying looking at their issues or not I want suggestions from those who have personally used them with or without any problem.
I am not familiar with VMI cards but anything that may cause problems while withdrawing is not worth it for me.
Hey there! Maybe you don´t find my opinion "objective" because I sell VMI cards but let me tell you my experiences with it. At first: VMI is the most secure ATM card around. Look at all those other card programms like gcard etc. which didn´t last only close to how long VMI exists now (7 years). Of course what you have written above with hanging while withdrawing from ATM can happen, but this can happen to ANY other card too. I use it too for PayPal withdrawl and I never experienced something like limited account because of the VMI card. If you don´t do any "suspect" transactions PayPal won´t limit the account because of the card. It happens sometimes the status in PayPal is shown as completed but PayPal will reverse the money even after this. Then their system found out anything suspect (even if there is never anything) and they want you to verify your ID. There should be no problem if you used your real info and you can even use the account again after the verification. I personally think VMI is a great, cheap solution for people who don´t have US bank account but need one to be able to withdraw their PayPal funds. Also it is a good thing if you have relatives abroad to whom you send money on regular base (let´s say 1 a month a WU transfer is maybe about 25$, a card-to-card-transfer only 3$). Another thing is there are some sites which offer funding the card for ecurrencies, sometimes even with PayPal. I think the price is it worth a try definitely. Just my personal opinion. Hope this helps a bit. Kind regards
I purchased a VMI Card from Hellfire81 and withdrew about $500 in 3 transactions and it worked like a charm. All other online features, like loading via ACH transfer worked very good along with the ATM withdrawal. I recommend buying VMI.
I'm using VMI card for over a year now without any problem. Only once ATM Machine Hung up and amount was debited from my account and it took them 4 months to credit that amount back to my card. That was the first and so far last bad experience with VMI ATM cards, else this card is great and works perfect. Recommended!
