You accept credit cards for loads, right?
Probably WF was violating some regulation in their T&C and was asked to close the operation. You are suggesting me to 'set something up' doing the same thing, but expect different result?
What kind of suggestion is that? or U like to attack whoever You disagree with? I did that when I was 10.

1) Buy Chase visa prepaid cards ('0' cost) accepts credit card, no 'intended' purpose clause attached no $20 monthly cost to WF.

2) Google wallet free......bye bye WF. pp

After my last load(April 30), I got the shut down mail on May 7. I was able to withdraw all my money before that.

Guilty? Of what?

You agree with their use of the term "fraud" for using the card in allowed ways?

My/your agreement does not matter, its up to the Court to decide. All agreements are not legally binding. Many contracts and agreements are thrown out the court because not enforceable. The clever lawyers makes U sign a lot these days may not mean much to the court.....This is going OT......

Wells Fargo Will NOT refund $1000

Well we finally got the call that told us that we were not getting our $1000, that we loaded back on March 5, 2013. They called it fraud. They informed us that it was due to FRAUD. ...????? Our heads are still spinning at this theft by WF. We are going through as many channels to get our money back. The Attorney General of San Francisco, CA., Our Attorney General here in Illinois, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau http://www.consumerfinance.gov/complaint/

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated in this matter.

How about a dispute with your credit card? That worked for me.

I think its your lucky day because WF messed up!. What were U doing since March 5th? I think there is 5 day max hold (incl. a bad check deposit) regulation for any financial institute. U should have on the 6th day filled a dispute with credit card or court, not have waited this long for resolution!

Looking for the HQ of WF or the address to fill out when taking them to SC court? try this...

wells fargo bank
atm executive office
1350 montego way, suite 500
walnut creek, ca 94598

Back in winter someone called Dean Torrance, ATM executive at 888 847 1855 may have been the best person to be named... but people and addresses change so, maybe call that or google that to see if it is still right.

So here is my experience. Got the shutdown email on 5/23 with a promise of funds in 10 business days. Called after 10 days.. no news.. they escalated.. another 7- 10 business days wait. Called again.. oh check was mailed in May.. that is after they told me check was never mailed. So pure BS.
Call center is managed by Visa not WF.. so now I think its time to hit em in the SC Courts.. Nickel and dime em to death. Plan to charge for every second that I have spent pursuing this.
