Many days I go in and there are no variable load cards left. One of the girls at the solution center told me they are up to $280K in the last two months and that the managers are considering not selling him anymore because of fraud/ML risks. From the couple times I've seen him solo at S&S he seems to use an Amex Delta card and a WF Cash Wise card. Not sure if he's using other more lucrative cards or not, but at that volume he'd max out any decent grocery store bonus card in less than a month.
This is just insane. This is just a new S&S I happen to pass by. I've not checked the one close to me.

I think it is easier to buy GCs. But most of WMs have daily limits.
