I checked the balance of the problem card and funds are loaded to the card. I guess it could be a problem with the magnetic strip? I haven't tried making a purchase anywhere else with this card.
Happened to me before.
Try swiping it at a vending machine
If it doesn't read at all, then the mag stripe is messed up
Call MB for a replacement.
