This signage has been in place for awhile. VRs fortunately are coded as "gift cards" and not prepaid debit cards. The system will allow the purchase of VRs with a credit card even if some cashiers will not.

Same thing happened to me while doing just one VR upload to BB 11/30 at 0800. But when I logged into BB account the money was there. Error message was an error!
Have you looked at your debit card (e.g. BB) to see if transactions actually went thru? |

I just got back from my most Reliable CVS store today. MOD had a new procedure that they have to follow for all gift card purchases over $200. It's a manual version of the $1000+ a day ID scan procedure. Any gift card purchase over $200 that is made with a credit card must be logged in on a clipboard. The information to be logged it includes name, DL number and amount being purchased. They also had an big highlighted writing No gift cards for gift cards.
This is the only store doing this at the moment. I hope it doesn't catch on. what is DL number? |

I've been stopping in this store 2-3 times a week. I'm going to alter my commute to stop in twice a day now. Appears I have competition :D |
Here's another strike supporting the idea that the $1k/day rule is objective per manager.
Over the past 6 months, been buying VRs periodically at my CVS outpost in Northern AZ. Usually during the day. No probs with avail, no probs with limits, save for what my CC can handle. Went in yesterday intent to buy $5k in beans. Cashier told me cash only, couldn't convince her to try it anyway. So I had her call the manager up. Manager said $1000 daily limit. Was a different manager than all previous trips (was a later at night visit). So rang the $1k and walked out with my tail between my legs. Gonna try tomorrow to see if it's a new store rule |

Fales.... I just bought in the last 3 days here in San Diego 13K worth of beans with my CC's. Not too sure why the folks here in San Diego are having problems finding the beans....

I do believe him, that he was told "cash only notice sent nationwide" by an employee. I just don't believe the employee who said it to him!

No issues whatsoever today at 2 of my favorite 4 stores.

Got $10k today no issues on 2 different cards.

Update: Just got off the phone with InComm.
Turns out 3-4 of the cards have been used already and the rest are inactive. :( :( They've asked me to send them all the copies etc, which I'm going to do tomorrow. Kinda' freaked out and hoping this gets resolved. Has anyone been in a situation like this before? P.S- I purchased the cards 3 days ago. Didn't get a chance to use them until now. Scratched the silver strip 10 minutes before posting here. Oh, and happy new month. :) |

Bought 12k over the last 3 days all on my TYP-- no issues. Obviously they didn't get the cash notification out here on the east coast.:D
