Honestly I am not sure there is any trick. My first MVD got shutdown (spend down) after about three weeks and $2500 of loads and about $2350 of unloads. I never loaded more than $500 a day. Only did MOs (@WM) and legit purchases (a couple), always left money on the card and let the money "age" (i.e., loaded and left on card for days to weeks before unloading). Didn't make a difference. I agree with others I don't think there is a secret sauce. At least when I was put in spendown I could easily clear the rest of my balance easily.
Personally I wonder if they look at new cards more closely as my shutdown seems at the low end of what folks have done recently. I think either take it easy at first or hit hard and fast but who knows. Just a random guess. |

If I did not know the one weird old trick to keeping MVD alive, then I would agree with you that there is no trick.

If it is more than 45 or less than 45, it's obviously not the same one. ;) |
When posters refer to “per month” is the reference to a calendar month or a rolling 30 days? MVD shows your account on a calendar month basis, but are limits also based on a calendar month? Thanks for your input.

matching perm card with temp card
With 3 temp cards, each with an online account, how do I tell which account a perm card (new number) is for?

if you used the same SS# for all 3 accts then it doesnt mater much as your days are surely very limited before being shut down.If you used more then 1 email address they all will have been changed to the last address inputted

So Vanilla Visa has nuked my cards. So I said screw it I'll just start new ones. So far what I've been doing is buying a new Debit and load it same day with $1500 more ($2k) then immediately go to get MO's. I have been able to use each card about three times (three days in a row) before I can't load anymore.
Was thinking of shifting to Green Dot for a bit. Are the GD as easy to do as VV? Are you able to buy MO's with them at a certain big box store too? |

All you have to do is count the number of people who know your trick..

My 3rd card got shutdown last week. I went very slow on it, did less than 10k over 2 months and it didn't matter. I did all CAs. When I called , I was told I was in spend down mode and they didn't bother to ask me to send in info. I did a CA for the remaining amount.

I got one at CVS a few days ago and registered it online. The registration went through, but I never got anything else. Am I supposed to receive a permanent card in the mail, or is this it?
