Same. Phone loading does not work as well. When it fails, it auto transfers to customer service who says I need to call Bluebird.

i tryed the website, got error 29 called the 877 number and it failed and transfered to CSR, she tried but said that sometimes CVS can hold funds transfer for up to an hour, saiys she can see amount on card and to try again in an hour, I have loaded many times in store so i am thinking they are having a glitch on their system

Unable to load Vanilla cards on vanilla.com this morning. Getting system error

Thats cause vanilla.com is the wrong website. You can get some fabulous deals on vanilla extract there though.

unable to load from online. tried many VRs I have ready to use and to more than one BB or Amex PP. The ones I have been trying were bought yesterday.

I am hoping this is just a temp (but already a long) glitch.

Is the CVS 5k limit exclusive of the purchase fees - IE, can you go get 10 VR's on one swipe, or just 9 because of the service fee?

MM,

Loaded one I purchased yesterday around 10:45 am estate without any issues. Might be corrected here.

10, and a can a soda too if ya want

its based on purch value of the pp cards or gcs, not the fees or store stuff

While driving home last night I was listening to NPR and they had a segment on the possibility of allowing bitcoins to be used for political contributions, during it they mentioned that some political commitied and PAC's have been using prepaid debit card to add more money to the coffers while remaining anonymous. It's kinda interesting that they are other clever ways to use these product other than just getting miles

According to the FEC, bitcoin's *can't* be used for Politcal contributions.

Good thing too - we don't want the Winklevoss twins buying the next election! :)

What kind of verification was done on paypal election contributions? I thought there was none.

yes but the FEC is currently having hearings to determine if they should be allowed.
