When logging into your Bluebird account, there used to be a nice little “transfer money” button on the “Recent Transactions” bar near the middle of the screen. Like this:
Now, it’s gone. The Recent Transactions bar now looks like this:
I used to transfer money to my checking account regularly. Now, unless someone can find the missing button, I’ll have to “pay bills” or write checks.
Has anyone seen the transfer money button recently? Where did it go?
Hat tip: numerous readers.
UPDATE: Commenter Snow told how to find the Transfer option. Here’s how:
Step 1: Click “Add Funds”
Step 2: Select “add new funding source”
Step 3: Click “here” (literally, click the word “here”)

Thanks for the update (couldn’t find it). I transferred $4000 without a problem last month and again today.
They’ve made it easy to find again. Just click on the little menu button at the top right and click settings. Then click withdraw funds
I’m not seeing a way to transfer from Bluebird to another bank account. Am I doing it wrong?
Sucia: Thanks. I’m glad they made it relatively easy to find again!
Bluebird appears to have moved this option again: my account-> withdraw funds -> transfer to bank.

Haha, thanks was looking for that button today. You can also go directly to https://secure.bluebird.com/Actions/WithdrawMoney 😀
Nguyen: I don’t know.

Ed L: There is a $10K per month limit.

Joe S: There must be a way to reset the PIN. Call and ask if you can’t find the info online.
On the final page it asks for a pin. I set this account up a long time ago but didn’t use it till a couple days ago. Is there a way to reset my pin, tried a couple things but no go, and I have no idea what it would be.
For me most of what I use Bluebird for is the places where I don’t have a routing and account number….ie water company, electric company, all the other autobill pay companies where my billpay checks a check without me getting any miles………..
Wow!! Today is the VERY FIRST TIME where I knew something that the Frequent Miler did not know. Amazing. I’ll have to buy a lottery ticket today – must be my lucky day.
Here’s a more serious question. Is there a limit on such transfers (the number of transfers per month, the dollar amount of each transfer, or the total dollars transferred per month)? I tried my first transfer (for $2500) a few days ago and the BB website accepted it without a hitch. Am now waiting to verify that it hits my bank account.

@FM – may I ask using BB, is the correct payee listed for Carlson Visa, US Bank Credit Card? Thanks.
If you order the FRICKIN CHECKS then we would not be having this conversation………..no disrespect intended……….
JustSaying: I have the checks but I find it simpler and more convenient to transfer money electronically.
