It's that, or risk locking up kate on the first try. Wasting the time and gas it took you to get to Walmart.
good grief. insert face palm
if this is what all the newbs think, no wonder the kiosk is always 'broken'.
so, if the atm locks up due to velocity limit, you do what- walk away and go home?!?
it's not ideal, i hope to avoid it, but when it does happen, if you walk away, you are PART OF THE PROBLEM. all you have to do is ask for help at customer service. they put in their code, and you continue/finish the transaction.
as always, have a 'regular' debit card with your name on it in your hand "for show" when they come to put in their override. i usually say something to the effect of: the machine's working, but being picky today. essentially NOBODY at walmart understands these machines; so it's pretty easy to deflect if you have any game at all.
