CODE = 93”.
After 1, 2, 3, or 4 tries, it may go through. One time the transaction had to be cancelled because, “DEBIT NOT AVAILABLE MAX EQUALS 8”. This is very reminiscent of what happened in the fall of 2020 when the SM VGCs started to intermittently fail.
Same thing happened to me at reliable WM but I didn't feel like trying 3 or 4 times to make the third card work. That only attracts attention to me and that is the last thing I want. This is especially thru since BHN has been limiting numbers of swipes to 2.
Right now we have DPs that say one can do 4 swipes and others that say 2, then no go for 3. I will just wait and see that this works out.
