Anyone have ideas of how to avoid these shutdowns? Put some DD ($500/month) and more small swipes on the card to make it look more legit?

Seems to me that WF is looking for accounts with low profit generation to shutdown. More swipes would make them more money, so more swipes should lead to lower chance of shutdown.

Has anyone been loading $400 at a time at Walmart instead of two $500 loads each time? Seems like if you are making two smaller transactions or loading non round number amounts it might look a bit like "structuring" and anger the cardinals even further.

Going to stick to my current pattern and hope for the best. If I have to make 3 WM trips a week for this to work it's not really worth it.
