Since our gold mine is sunk anyway, care to share where you were buying your beans? My regulars were Dot Ave , Morrissey Blvd , 1 up in Saugus , and 1 up in Peabody. Never ran into anyone else buying though!

Just bought VRs from all those locations.

I've scratched off two of these and there is no number underneath. I have not touched the third one yet, but I fear that it is blank too. I'm not sure if I got scammed. Should I take the cards back to CVS or file a charge back with my credit card issuer?

Did any of the 3 turquoise ones show any sort of tampering?

This is not uncommon. It's like those scratcher lottery games: "Try Again Next Time!"

Anyone have this sudden urge to go all out with any sort of MSing this week? I picked up my usual number of VRs without issues but I have this sudden urge to buy out all the OVs and whatever else I can get my hands on. And then just laugh. For a while. A long while.

Couldn't tell you on the 2 I've already scratched off. On the one I haven't touched yet, if you hold it in the light just right it appears on the left side of the turquoise scratch off to have three scratch marks in the plastic.

Lol.

But seriously, Squeezer - I would start by going back to the CVS where you bought them. Call and ask when a manager will be in the store. Show the manager what happened. Your goal is to get them to call Incomm and straighten this out.

You should be aware this may not go smoothly. If CVS declines to help, you are back to Incomm. Every now and them Incomm is helpful, but usually not. Be prepared to be jerked around and out the money for awhile. If Incomm and CVS are unhelpful the next step is to file some type of regulatory complaint. After that it is dispute with CC issuer, then small claims court.

There are several threads in the MS forum about this issue.

Also please post where you bought these (not that it matters much at this point).

Start with CVS, if the manager is customer service oriented, he will just refund and re-ring up a good/valid one for U.
If he does not take any responsibility charge back!

Bought 5k at 2 Northern Virginia stores. Still no mentions of cash only.

OVERVIEW: due to significant increased in credit card fees for reloadable debit cards ALL reloadable debit cards will be moving to cash only.

Also says it is by location not national...

It is the real memo - not some BS memo

Sorry that it isn't straight..

your thoughts on my new tattoo?
 
I normally don't get new tattoos when I'm very emotional, just when I'm really drunk. But my grief is so overwhelming right now that I think this will be a good way to cope.

Your feedback is appreciated.

Then tell us how much you were able to do. Then we can all have a laugh, a long laugh. :D There's always someone doing it bigger and bolder than you think you.
