This is a big NO, NO when dealing with WM personnel. As much as possible BEST to avoid getting a Front End or any of the Yellow Vested managers involved. You may not be aware but once you try to reason with them and say you were successful in doing something they do not allow, you flagged yourself. These personnel will talk and tell cashiers at MoneyCenter or Customers Service booth to BOLO (be on lookout) for you. It is best to lay low for several days, if not weeks at such location and allow things to cool off.

It has been told time and again, the best approach when getting rejected is just say thank you and leave quietly; feel free to come back later and test a different cashier to see if "policy" is not enforced. If every cashier enforces policy, it's time to buy MOs somewhere else.
