As of 6/19/2014, Walmart does not accept debit transactions above $49.99 from cards issued by Bancorp, namely Vanilla Visas (OV, VGC, etc.). Attempts result in "Alternate Tender Required," "Debit Not Available," and/or some other error message, at both registers and the Money Center Express (MCE, kiosk, Kate, ATM).
There is no workaround.

That was pre-crash related...I believe all Vanilla flavors are impacted currently.

Using VGC for Debit transaction at WM?
Has anyone tried making a debit PIN transaction at WM cashier using VGC yet? If it doesn't work, this could be bigger issues than using them at Kate. That would suggest that either Bancorp or WM is blocking them intentionally.
If so, than perhaps there is leverage in filing some kind of complaint against Bancorp/WM. Or not.... I'm nor exactly a regulator.
I'm going to visit Kate later today to try a $90 load... If nobody else has tried a debit transaction I'll buy a stick of gum and report back. Just trying to get some data points here.
