Never one single hiccup with these beauties. Only drag is activating them all on the phone :sigh:

Other than that, I love having these around because of the ease of draining them. I'll use them to keep my transactions from being stupid small when I'm draining BHNs from the office store sales.
- For example, I'll load $700 with 2 swipes. 500 from TGCS and 200 from an ODOM 5B or GE
- Second example, load $695 with 3 swipes. 500 from TGCS and 97 + 98 from Staples VGC (which leaves $5 on the card for an amazon load).
- Third example, load 1k to discover with 2 swipes, both TGCS

Thank god I've still got an Amex Serve. Individual xaction load limit is $700. Amex Visa won't let me load more than $500 in a single xaction. Grrrrrr

Anyway, this all helps me feel better about draining those b!#ch BHNs, and ensures I'm moving enough money around to always have cash to pay the "remaining statement balance" on each CC before the due date.
