That's odd. It always works for me at BoA. I did this about 8-9 times for the last 3 months.

So I just tried today at my bank (WF) and i got a declined also. Have been able to do multiple deposits and have done the same max amount every time for a full month. I called MVD, they said everything was fine. Called WF, they said everything was fine. Same procedure as always, i give them the card and my driver's license...I will try again tomorrow at see what happens. Very strange.

I'm looking around for ways to fund my MVD besides VR cards at CVS.

Today I tried two Family Dollar locations. Last time I was in was with Bluebird and the register would not recognize Bluebird. The register did recognize MVD just fine but was coded to not accept credit cards. Attempted both Visa and Mastercard. It was the same at both stores I visited.

Dollar General is my next attempt.

I received a cash advance from my MVD (permanent) card last Friday. Currently, I have a negative balance, as the pending transaction never fell off my account even though the same transaction also appears as completed.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? It seems unusual that the transaction is still pending almost a week later.

When buying MO at WM, I decided to split my purchase for 5 different cards, including MVD and WF. Well, the register at WM allows only 4 cards, so the clerk had to cancel everything and start again. The problem was that I entered pins for all cards and I was reassured that cards wasn't charged. It looks that that wasn't the case, since MVD rejected my second transaction (I used all funds from MVD for the first transaction that was cancelled), while WF didn't. When I came home, I noticed the charge from WM on my MVD card and no credit back. I checked WF card and saw a charge from WM and a credit from WM. So, for WM card everything is OK.

So, should I contact MVD about not getting back my money or I have to wait and pray that it would happen automatically? I'm not quite patient since the missing amount is substantial - $1K.

If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

AKA, if you can't float the cash, don't play the game.Best to wait it out a bit. Calling just raises red flags. You should really make a point to only play these games with money that isn't needed elsewhere soon.

Anyone with this amount of money would be a little nervous, and no one wants their money tied up indef.

I do agree that one should not use funds they cannot float for a while in case of errors (which are inevitable).

I took the OP's post as merely a datapoint and a simple question of advice.

I'm not sure about MVD. But, I did have an issue with a Vanilla GC at a CVS just a bit ago. It takes 7-8 days for the money to be credited back onto a Vanilla GC.
