Problem loading Bluebird with Vanilla Visa GC
 

I tried to load my BB with a Vanilla Visa GC at 3 different WalMart's yesterday and ran into the same problem each time...the transaction showed as a credit card swipe on the cashier side at Customer Service even though I changed the payment to Debit...hit No Cash Back...and then entered a pin...supervisors at all 3 stores came over and said that the GC's will not work anymore...these were all Debit versions and I have previously had success 15-20 times...

Anyone have the same issue...and/or a workaround that has been successful?

Strong first post....

:td:

So... you're having a problem with Vanilla GC's? Loading a BB account? At Walmart, you say? Very interesting.

In other news...

Well its good morning to me, I had no idea whatsoever that this took place. So Lindbergh simply on the cuff decided to fly to Paris. Well I guess we still can learn something new everyday Next thing I know someone is gonna post something about WM no longer working ;)

what about MO's?
 

So it appears that OVGC's and OVPVC's can no longer feed the BB at WM. Any suggestions on how to liquidate the OVGC's and OVPVC's I have in hand? MO's? Can you buy MO's with the OVPVC's? if so, where? My MS goal is quite low, only $7K per month. Do you think that's enough to raise a red flag with my bank if I deposit $3500 of MO's in 2 different accounts each month? And please don't snark at me if this has been covered elsewhere. I really did try to research this before I posted here, but the answers weren't clear or they were outdated, as the rules for all of this seem to be changing quickly.

Thanks, but most of this is outdated information

I know, have some patience let the dust settle down then U will see clarity.

dont know how to tell you this but youre gonna have to get up off your chair and walk away from your computer. Get into your car and start driving around and walking into different places and ask if they sell MOs , dont tell them anything but that you will be using a Debit Card if they should ask

Worse comes to worse you strike out, if you arent willing to do this little bit on your own, you Never should have gotten involved with this game. Last resort stop using your CCs and use the cards you have in hand for all your purchases till you drain them all and then forget you ever heard about MSing

Thank you, Craz, for reminding me why I don't do FT Forums. Silly me for thinking that people here would want to be helpful. This is just hateful. And has been every time I have come here for help. Did you ever think about delivering the same information without the snark? It would go something like this:

"Unfortunately, Avery66, your best bet is going to the places that that sell money orders around you and asking them if they will accept a debit card, because this is really a hit or miss part of the MS game. If you can't find a place to buy MO's, then you should probably just use the GC's you have in hand in place of your CC's until you've depleted the funds. MS sure can be a lot of work, right? Have a lovely day and let me know if you need anything else."

See, here's the thing, Craz. You use the snark to make me appear uninformed, simple-minded and lazy. But I can assure you that your tone is far more unbecoming of you than it is to me.

it is wrong timing.. we were just hot by another blow and you are asking for info that people are not comfortable posting on open forum.. MO locally is very YMMY and you just have to do your research. there is no hard feeling, nothing personal..
gather all the data you can from the forum, add in your own research and you will have a system to use..
best of luck

Very nice retort :p

Note that Avery66 has been around for a long time.
May deserve a bit more respect.

This forum is just overflowing with respect recently.

Respect is bought! with posts counts lol

Sweet! I can't wait until I'm here long enough to be a douche, and still demand respect :rolleyes:
