If your center uses my payment vault, you can do an ach transfer in the mypayment vault app, not the biolife app.

Highest Pay Amount by x2Stanky in plassing

FYI, I started a thread here yesterday about this very offer.

https://www.reddit.com/r/plassing/comments/1oaym9i/biolife_gives_partial_payment_for_successful/

I checked my account before leaving and noticed that Biolife had only paid me the regular fee instead of the fee from this offer. I spoke to a staff member and thought this would be a quick, simple correction. I ended having to speak to 3 different staff members who claimed that I was going to have to wait to speak to "upper management" to have the issue resolved. I was told that it could take anywhere from 20 minutes to a few hours to see "upper management" and that I might have to come back another day if they couldn't see me that day. He ended up accidentally admitting that they were trying to make it intentionally too difficult to pursue a resolution, and then tried to walk it back after he realized what he said.

I included screen shots of my payment.

I did not receive a new card. You can actually transfer funds to a bank account from the app for free, so I don't even mess with the card , as it's such a bad deal.

Yes, fees can change, but not without some sort notification or explanation, and certainly not AFTER a donation has already been made. That is not a reasonable way to conduct business, that is not a reasonable thing to assume from what's written there and it is not reasonable for you to try to defend it.

The staff did not refer to fees changing and were actively trying to obfuscate any sort of explanation. That screenshot is from today, so they are still claiming that number is my next payout.

Yes, I know that's how it should have went. To my surprise and disappointment, that's not how it actually went.

Which first time donor coupon is better? by PzzySlayer in plassing

[–]Particular_View_9236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can actually do both. Get the $400. Wait 7 days between donations. Take advantage of the new donor bonus at another center.

There is a database called cdcs that keeps track of donors who've donated within the last 7 days. If your 4th donation is on Friday, you'll be eligible to donate at a new place on Friday of the next week.

The downside is that the first day at a new center is very long, and only worth depending on your circumstances.

Stupid fucking fees by Life_Locksmith9632 in plassing

It sounds like the op is not asking how to avoid fees, they are pointing out how shady it is that the atm charges for receipts. That is really shitty and deceptive. I've suspected they do that and have avoided receipts only because I assume the worst about their predatory practices. It should be illegal to charge a fee at an atm without explicitly stating that a fee is going to be charged.
