I guess I'll find out in 7-10 business days if this is just a one-off and the replacements work or how much more pain I'm in for
My experience when one of my VGCs is declined is to try it a second time and then pocket it for 24 hours, and it seems to work after that time.
It sounds from your experience that multiple attempts (more than one) will lock the card and it sounds as if it then needs replacement. That sucks
