anyone got this recently?
"Your order could not be completed. Please try again or change your payment method."
I added a new card (Ritz) and I can only seem to load it once. I did it once last week and once this week. I was able to fund my other cards with a different CC that I had previously added.
I'm curious if Chase is blocking it or if Buxx is doing it.

Found this out the hard way. A few years back I thought my Buxx was dead but it was only a cash advance reset issue.

No. You must have a cash advance limit to cover what you are using. Loading Buxx uses your cash advance before it posts as a purchase. So if your cash advance is $200 and you load your Buxx, it will go to 0. When you try to load the next week it won't go through as your cash advance limit has not yet reset to $200.

i've been using Buxx for months. I've probably ran Buxx through 7-8 cc and never had this issue. Had it not been for your reply I probably would have given up trying to load more than once on this particular card lol

I have been funding with the same Chase BA card since March-ish, once a week. When I log into the Chase website, for today it shows the $202 pending, as well as a $202 reversal immediately following it. Is Chase blocking this?

Can't access account
Today, when I tried to log on, instead of the Buxx login, it redirected me to a general Nationwide login page. I tried to login as a bank account, but my username and password didn't work. I then tried to use the monthly statement link on my email and was sent to a broken page. Anyone else have this problem? I'm worried because I have a lot of money on the cards.

What about Navy Fed Buxx Card.. anyone ever used that? I just saw that they had one, and I thought might be interesting to see if there was a new MS method for me.

Yes. However, NFCU stopped the earning of cc points around June last year for all of their prepaid products with direct cc funding.
