I have a similar issue. Two of the four cards I bought a few days ago -- US Bank Visa from Kroger -- won't load to BB with a PIN. I tried on two separate days at both Kate and a cashier hoping it was a temporary issue at one of the terminals. As always, as soon as I bought the cards (i.e., before attempting a swipe), I called and re-set the PIN to a number combination that I can easily remember.
Are they a lost cause or can they be resurrected or replaced by calling customer service. And, NO, I don't intend to tell them it's a BB loading issue. I would tell them PIN based transactions won't go through.
