I got my cards last Wednesday, activated them online like usual--and went Friday to WM.

I tried a standard 2k MO, split payment. Didn't work on the first swipe. Tried 2 other cards, didn't work.
Cancelled the MO, tried a Serve load. Same error.

Went home and made sure I had activated all cards, they were activated. I re-activated just in case.

Went back on Saturday to try again.
Tried a Serve load with a card I had leftover from a previous order (All other cards had been liquidated at this same WM a few days earlier without incident), Same error.
I then tried a BB load (no loads this month yet) of $450 from a $500 card (seeing if there was any odd hold amounts involved), same error.

I've done a large volume of these at WM without any issues so far. I can't determine if the issue lies at WM or with Metabank. Other reports of bau at WM seem to point at metabank?
