The loading thats capped at $100/day?

With wells ATMs, you can unload $4.5k per month for $7 in ATM fees.

If I didn't have access to a wells ATM, but did have access to VRs, I'd use the WF card for mos. bb would be last resort.

Trying to follow your calc of $7...isn't it max $500 per day at $2.50 after the first 2?

Hmm, ATMs still wouldn't work today, but I sent a payment to a family member using my PP over AP and it still went through approved. Really odd, only had 1 ATM in the past 10 days and 4 in the past 30 days. Rereading the T&C to figure out if I hit a limit but can't see I did. :confused:

It's $1/ATM after the first 2 in a calendar month at a WF ATM. So $1000 is free, $3500 you pay for in 7 ATM withdrawals (technically $3480 and you'll have $13 left).

Limits as I read them are 1 ATM per day, 3 ATM in 7-day period, 10 ATMs in 30-day period.

Loading online incurs a fee and has a $100 cap. Loading AT a Walmart (I believe) has a cap of $600 (because of the WF PP cap) and is free.

Thanks amolkold!
Loading method at Walmart? Credit Card? Debit Card (MVD?)? GC?
Also, will Citi credit card loading cause a CA fee at Walmart?

Hmm went to another WF ATM and still couldn't withdraw $500. Tried $400, that didn't go. Then tried $300 since that's the highest pre-select option ... It worked. Has this happened to anyone else?

Because "my" did 2 ATMs 9 days apart?:rolleyes:

There are others who talk about only doing ATMs here. I mix mine in with other transactions, including <$50. If anyone is "killing it," it ain't me.

Did you mean "you're all?" I'm not sure what "your all" is.

This appears to be new for me.

How did the Barclay's load post?

I ordered 2 WF cards for $1000 each, and both orders went through fine, but I just checked my Chase account and it doesn't show the pending charge anymore from Wells Fargo for either of the $1000 amounts.

Should I be worried?

I haven't received anymore emails from WF except for my order confirmation numbers.

Did you use an Ink Card? Transactions tend to disappear for a few days between pending and posted. Normally Chase is 100% ok with WF.
