Question about GreenDot... I bought some MoneyPaks (5x$500) at a Rite-Aid today. When I enter the MoneyPak number online, I get a message saying the balance of the MoneyPak is $0! ...??

I bought the MoneyPaks about 3 hours ago. Do I have to wait some period of time before GreenDot "recognizes" that the card is active and has money on it?

I went back to the store and the manager went over everything with me and it really does look like the purchases processed properly. He even showed me receipts from other purchases where the card wasn't properly activated -- the purchase won't even go through and the receipt prints and error. My receipt, on the other hand, looks all correct.

I've only scratched off one MP number, because I don't want GD to yell at me if there's some error...

Thoughts/advice?
