Anyone else having problems trying to use this to load BB at Walmart? I just tried $543 and $450 and both were rejected. Receipt says debit not approved, call authorizer. I logged onto BB and WF accounts and both Appear ok.

I never got into the WF PP card, but what's up with all the doom and gloom if you could load via Visa ReadyLink?
Some details:

How do I complete a Visa ReadyLink load transaction?
Present your card, along with the funds to be loaded, to the cashier at any Visa ReadyLink location. Your card will be swiped, and your funds will be applied. The cashier will provide you with a receipt, and you'll have immediate access to your funds (upon approval by your card provider).
How soon are funds available to me?

Don't need ReadyLink to load WF PP. As of now, can load WF PP with CC, so why use ReadyLink and make an extra step.
However, doesn't really matter much as the WF PP option with CC is going away as of May 1 (it will have to be funded with a WF product).
Maybe you are saying that ReadyLink is another venue that can be loaded by CC (there is a bit of info. around the forum on this) or maybe you are saying use ReadyLink to load WF PP--if so, not for much longer.

Everything went as normal till the receipt spit out. They keypad even said approved. I just went to Aldi and was able to pull an extra $100 over the purchase. Then I went back to Walmart and had it loaded at the customer service desk. I had her try it for $200 and it worked this time. ????

I just used WF PP at WM to load BB at the MC and everything went OK.
