This is the thread for posts through 2016. The new thread for 2017 is http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/manufactured-spending/1826119-billpay-walmart-2017-a.html

Bill Pay cannot be done at a regular register.
It must be done at Customer Service/Returns.
Or at the Money Center in stores that have it.


BUSINESS DAY transaction completion time is 18:59:59 EST
Friday after 06:59PM EST, until Monday BEFORE 07:00PM EST arrives Tuesday
Tuesday BEFORE 7:00PM arrives Wednesday
Wednesday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Thursday
Thursday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Friday
Friday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Monday
But when a next-day payment will post and be visible depends upon the CC issuer.

--------------------------------------------------------------
WM offers two BP services: CheckFreePAY and MoneyGram. The cashier can initiate CheckFreePAY by selecting Money Services followed by Bill Pay on the register for a fee of $1-1.88. Moneygram is $4.99.

Once your CFP account is set up, you can add cc. When you want to BP give them your phone# to look up your account under Money Services. They often get confused and think you want MG, but just say it is under Money Services.

ONLY 4 successful debit card swipes can pay for a transaction.

ONLY 5 payments per 16 digit account number per rolling 30 days.
--------------------------------------------
:-:VISA and MC
If your particular card isn't on the list below, try "VISA" or "MASTERCARD."

"VISA" and "MASTERCARD" payee can no longer be found by search at some stores. If the employee can no longer find "VISA" or "MASTERCARD" by searching in CheckFreePAY, then you cannot pay either, end of story.

Sorry if I missed it but I couldn't find the answer to my question.

What payee do I use to pay my Citi Forward Visa? My local Walmarts don't have "Visa" anymore. I couldn't find "Citicards", "Citi credit cards", or anything similar.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think you have any other choices. Maybe try Kmart? Or maybe pay with Bux cards?

Confirmed FIA/Fidelity AMEX is dead in AZ. BOA Consumer Loans 1/3 day brings up an invalid account number message.

Hi

I was able to sign up for 2% FIA for me and my spouse in NY just this morning thinking they might be shutting this card down and hoping that I get grandfathered in.

from reading other posts, seems like it is NOT the 2% FIA CC that is about to get D/C but the ability to B/P this card at WM is the one that is getting shutdown at most WMs nationwide.

my analysis may be wrong but there's no feelers that 2% FIA is going to be shutdown any time soon. from research, this card is still very useful for MS purposes.

Has anyone had issues with the new software package that remembers your customer information and credit card data? I was planning on ramping up my use of the BP now that I can split payment but was concerned that they can now track how frequently you pay a bill since that have the customer information in their computer.

Billpay at Walmart

Did a bill pay today for $2400 to us bank visa (Tucson AZ). Just paid "VISA" with no problems but CS person had to input SSN and all my drivers license info. Never had to supply this much info before. Anybody having to put more info in now? Will try $1500 next time to see if that's okay.

Ugh...yeah because you tried to BP > $2K which is why they are asking for all that info. Did you just not read the few previous posts where they are asking for more info now?

+1....people need to be more clear when it comes to their posts in that the BP to FIA might be going away but not the actual 2% Fido card. This way it avoids any sort of confusion.

Ignore the OP doesn't have his facts straight. FIA is not going anywhere.

I'm in AZ and my $1998.50 BPs always require that information. Someone said a few pages ago it's required for all BPs in AZ.

Did you do split tender?
