Quick hit: new Bluebird/Serve/Redbird scheduled adds

When writing about simplifying and automating debit card transactions back in July, I wrote:
"Unfortunately, as with Evolve Money, I am no longer able to create new so-called 'scheduled add' transactions. What I am able to do is edit existing scheduled add transactions and change the funding source to a new credit or debit card."
Turns out there's an easy workaround that allows users to create new scheduled adds.
Once you're logged into your Serve, Bluebird, or Prepaid REDcard account, simply navigate to:
- https://secure.bluebird.com/Manage/ScheduleAutoAdd/ for Bluebird scheduled adds;
- https://secure.serve.com/Manage/ScheduleAutoAdd/ for Serve scheduled adds;
- https://secure.prepaidredcard.com/Manage/ScheduleAutoAdd/ for Prepaid REDcard scheduled adds.
Using this technique, you can create as many scheduled adds as you like, either in order to meet monthly debit transaction requirements or, in the case of Serve, simply to schedule the manufacture of $1,000 per month in third-party (not American Express-issued) American Express credit card spend.
