Does anyone know of another way to use the tax refund advance without credit karma?

I attempted to open the credit karma account first.  credit karma said they cannot verify my personal information.  I asked what I could verify they said we'll resolve your issue when we can, which of course isn't an answer.  I just want my refund advance without credit karma but i haven't found a way so I thought maybe ask the masses.

No.  The refund advance requires that you put your refund on a Credit Karma card.  There is no way around that requirement.

that's the gimmick. the refund advance goes on the CK card, but unused funds subject to limitations can be used by CK. it's a debit card and banks do the same
