I call and have to get 3 new cards in the mail which takes like 14 days to show up. I go to use the $500 to prepay my gas/electric bill and the replacement card gets locked immediately. I call again and now they'll "expedite" a replacement which I should receive in 3-5 business days. It's becoming harder and harder to even use these things legitimately.
I had something similar to this happen last week.
3x with $10 and 1x with > $450 at grocery store .
Swiped the 3x with $10 fine, but the final swipe with the 4th card got locked. That 4th card had been used in-person elsewhere.
They're sending me a replacement for the 4th card by USPS.
So bizarre why they would lock when used legitimately.
I don't understand how the proceeding VGC can be locked once money has been drained.
