I hear you, in my experience, Citi and CitiBusiness sometimes code things differently, and sometimes there are interesting turn of events when that happens, not in this case.

Thank you for the additional data point.

I think the $100 purchases with Chase and Bofa is the best bet for now.

Lets keep it simple and small with these purhcases.

Actually its probably not worth it, $5 per load and $3 monthly maintenance fee. Without the $3 maintenance fee, your already losing 5% if you deposit $100. ouch. Anything bigger and wells fargo will probably shut you down. I dont see this as a feasible option anymore. Lets shut down this thread and move on.

Is there a problem loading the WF card with $500 at a time (with the $5 load fee)?

Or is this amount causing some sort of alerts with WF?

You are just wasting money on fees.

where's the reference to the pointy hatted authorities!?

also, am considering this for wife as well. think that'll set off any extra alarms for double duty at same address?

There are many reason people may wish to load with a gift-card, which are typically limited to $500. There's some discussion on page2/3 about this.

I just tried to load $2500 with CSP and the transaction wouldn't go through. I than lowered it to $1999 and still no go. Does anyone know if something has changed? Maybe with CSP?

The batteries might be low in your CSP so it may not be working properly.
Try getting the man in the pointy hat to come and fix it perhaps by calling him down from the mountain with his flock to herd some savings into the united corral all the villagers use. Then the olympic event will ride the stagecoach west to the big jamboree and all the flyer talkers will send smoke signals to the Cardinals to rain on our jamboree weinie roast.

Please no pms I don't know what that means if you don't
