Regarding having limits increased by way of upgrading to the "select" account: to reiterate what a poster above said, they now require you to be a member for at least 4 months and have 2 load mechanisms. So if you are a relatively new member like myself, don't bother making a small load with a new method to become eligible, that is, until you are at or close to the 4 month requirement. They do have the ability to increase your limits arbitrarily if you have them email you the forms and you send them back, but that's no sure thing.

Here is the response I received from customer service via their message system within a couple of days' time of asking about a limits increase. However incoherent it is, at least it was fairly prompt.

Dear xxxxxxxx,

In order to increase your ATM withdrawal limit from $320 to $600 .Also
increases your daily load limit/purchase with Visa card limit from $500 to
$1000.
Requirements for Select Member's are as follows:
1. The account holder must have an ePassporte account for a minimum of
4 months
2.The account holder must also have in addition either 2 verified load
mechanisms or 5 loads on the ePassporte account
There is a one time $5.00 fee. Your account will reflect "Personal/Select".

At this time you do not qualify your account creation date 07/12/2007.

In order to fulfill your request to increase your Load or ATM Withdrawal
Limit we can send you a Limit increase form, (Please be advised that your
limit increase depends on several factors and that your application does
not guarantee approval.) If you are interested please send your request
via email.

Regards,
Jonelle S
