    Well, one of the companies my hubby worked for did that, and you could get com checks done on it or draw it out of an ATM. You can even use the card at a checkout like a debit card. Very handy set up actually. I would do a check to take care of the bills at home, and leave money on the card for hubby for his meals and such.

    If your trying to use money from the advance portion of it, it won't work. Do you have any of your paycheck going to your comdata card?

    Yeah basically my final check from my last company went on the card, I was able to withdraw most of it from an atm but the last bit I'm not sure how to get off.
