I walked into my local Citi branch yesterday and asked for a CA of $9400. First was told that Citi's internal CA limit is $5,000. Okay, so I asked for $5,000. Teller tried to run the transaction, but it failed. He suggested that perhaps the issuer has its own limit. I asked him to try $2,500, and it worked.

Has anyone else run into CA limits on the MVD side of things? Did I do something wrong? I'd like to do bigger CAs to (a) cut down on my trips to the bank, and (b) avoid unnecessary fees.
