I have loaded with Ink and USB CC card over the last 3 weeks, most recently Friday. Have kept my loads at $1000 and my transfers to BB at about $500 at a time. No problems. Also putting a few "normal" spending transactions on the WF (gas, pizza, etc).

Tonight I tried a $750 transfer to BB at WalMart and was denied. But $500 went thru OK. I had just taken $100 out in cash after a WF debit purchase.

Max per transaction on this card is $600.

opps, you're right! For some reason, I thought the $600 limit was just for online purchase. I had just never tried to load more than $500 to BB at a time before. Thanks!

So, I have two cards. I've been using and funding them successfully since October. However, the last time I was able to successfully load either card was February 19th. I'm able to withdraw money on both, so I'm not locked out. This isn't a CA issue. It gives me the max reloads reached message. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

I'm getting that error too. My load history is as follows: initial load $2K in early Feb. Over 31 days later in early March I had a few loads declined by the bank (3x) before a successful one. Have had two additional successful loads since. The three reloads total $3500. Tried to load $990 today and got that error message too.

Loaded another 2000 from chase card last week and did two 500 loads to BB on Saturday. Still no shutdown email. Hopefully this stays open for 2-3 more loads!

you do have to wait, but maybe you misread OP's post. They loaded to BB not to the WFPP card again.

ooh well guess that is why it didn't let me reload now. Just wondering why I was able to reload three times in a period of under a week.

probably due to the rolling limits.

Question for those of you out there without a minimum spend to hit. Do you just use the WFPP card to get extra "free" points/miles? If so what card(s) are you using? I'm thinking I might as well just keep using the Ink Bold for the next month and a half... every point counts.

I'm using my CSP on this, because...why not? I'm done with the spend on it, but 4,500 UR points/month can't hurt.
