Hi fellows, I'm a newbie and I have a hard time sending money for family while I'm on the rd! I have a account with Bank of America but you know how hard it's to find a bank and even if you find it you can't go to their drive thru with the big rig!! lol also, western union is so expensive to work with! So, would you experience drivers advise me how do you send money for family members when needed?? Thanks in advance!
What's the best way of sending money while on the rd?

Get the family moneycard at Walmart. You can move up to 1000 for 3.00. I am my wife have cards and can send money to each other a 3.00. The cards a an inital cost of 3 to 5 bucks. Can be used as a debit card almost anywhere. The moneygram method of sending money costs 30.00 to send 500.00, and then its basically walmart to walmart and they have a few other locations.

Download the BOA app on your smart phone then just a few taps. The money is there

Have your company pay you through direct deposit. duh.

I'm not with BOA, but with Chase.
They have a Quick Pay option that allows you to send money to anyone with an e-mail account.
It does take a couple days for the transfer, but it is an easy way to send money.DozerCowboy Thanks this. -
Give it to me and I'll get it there...
losttrucker Thanks this.
