      You can't do it manually with Mycelium AFAIK.

      Consider importing your wallet into the Electrum software if you want to do that.

        1st time using card for months. I got $1500 on the card to go to my favorite ATM that previously was one that would take this card and not charge any surcharge fee, so it was only $2 from BP. Now they charge $3 plus the $2 from BP and on only $500 vs $750.
        Before I could go with 3k and do 750x4 and pay $8. I'm not paying $15 to go $500x3.

        So just made the ACH to my WF bank for the $5. Also they made changes, but for the better. Before it was 6k max per 30 days on ACH (standard 3 day trans)per WF rules. Now they made it 6k per 30 days with next day transfer and also 25k per 30 days on the standard 3 day. Awesome!

          Does anyone use their BitPay card for gas and not have a $75 or more hold occur? I went inside a gas station and paid for gas along with buying some stuff and got a $75 hold that cleared after month (this was before BitPay's system upgrade).

            I get gas every week with it. I once had a $100 hold....I contacted CS they said never use it at the pump as some stations put a hold ALWAYS go inside and use it as a debit card purchase and you will not get the "HOLD" since you are pre paying...Since doing that I have not received any holds

              Okay I'll have to try again sometime and maybe at another gas station. This was at a Circle K.

                I wouldn't use it at any gas station, restaurant, or hotel. Merchants have different coding. For some reason... additional holds are required. Not worth the risk waiting 30 days every single time for the hold to fall off.

                  Maybe they've changed but I used to get gas at Costco with Bitpay before the fiasco and there were no holds.

                  You can even link this card to Paypal to buy shit using Paypal.

                  But after people getting their info stolen, I don't use this card to purchase goods anymore.

                    Question. The Bitpay ATM withdrawal limit is $5,000 per month. Is transferring from card to bank consider ATM transaction? Would the amount transferred through ACH go towards the $5,000 monthly limit?

                      No and No.

                        It's definitely more limited in getting CASH now

                        I used to be able to get basically unlimited amounts of USPS MO'S, now it's considered "quasi cash" and limited to $1500/day

                        Definitely not good
