| - I called the phone number for this AAA listed on Google yesterday, and I asked the lady about Travel Visa cards. My husband is going to the Bahamas, works during all of their business hours here, and needs a travel card. I asked about the foreign exchange markup and about what I needed to bring with me to get a card in my husband's name. She said nothing and that you can get up to 4 cards on one account and give them to anyone. So I said OKAY! and then the next day drove the 25 minutes into East Liberty (my LEAST favorite place to drive in Pittsburgh), and I get there, sit down with the cashier, and find I cannot get my travel card because my husband isn't with me and he needs to be sitting there in order for her to assign a card to him. She told me about companion cards, which apparently can be given to anyone, but only if they come with you to the office. She tried to be helpful by offering a suggestion to visit my bank, but she should have been able to give me the companion card for my husband to use in the Bahamas. I should have the right and prerogative to set up a dedit card, put a ton of cash on it, and give someone the card and the pin to use. I will never come to this place again. Sad to say the other reviews I read of this place are accurate.
