Yup, down for all my accounts.

Any updates on whether we need to call for WF if payments post 1 day apart?

I stopped using Evolve about 2 months ago with all the new restrictions. However, I was able to get my hands on a few Reloadit cards and want to pay my WF mortgage (due 9/16). I haven't had experience with Evolve since the weekend trick died, so I'm not sure if my payments will go through as intended. Today, I sent $999 scheduled for 9/15, and I'll send the remaining $800+ tomorrow first thing in the morning. My guess is 9/16 will be the first available date. I now realize that I should've scheduled the payment I sent today for 9/16 and the ones tomorrow also for 9/16, but too late for that.

Yea, you're gonna want to send that 2nd payment into WF some other way. Down to one payment per biller per month now.

I think that is with debit cards as the payment methods. The RLits don't count against that cap as stated in the wiki.

Got an email today from Evolve that says they updated their site. One of the supposedly new features is that you can have up to 6 cards in your profile. But, when I go in there, it says I've reached the max of 3 cards. Any one else having this issue?

Yep, my bad, sorry!

What a sad sad day. My only RL/PayPower store has gone cash only. After 8+ months of running six-digits through each month, they have changed their policy. I had a great rapport with the store manager and all their employees...the store manager once even commented on how he thought there was some store competition with which store could sell the most PPs. I've been spoiled with no purchase fees w/PayPowers, but is everyone just getting the VGCs at 5.95/each? I don't think I'm up for saving the $1 and trying the OV game at WM.

I actually used 2 reloadits to pay my mortgage. I tried the next day to use another one and could not. When I called in I was told that reloadits are unlimited up until the $1000/payee cap - so not really unlimited.

$1000 per day is the limit per day per payee.

I could've sworn the Evolve limit was $1000 per day per biller account before. Now it is $999 per day total, across all biller accounts. I wanted to pay off my 2 Wells Fargo mortgages. One is $1870, the other one $1132. The total is a couple bucks over $3000. I was able to get my hands on six $500 ReloadIt cards. Now, one of the mortgages should be paid off, but I owe $4 on the other one. The final due date is Tuesday, 9/16. What is the best way to pay off that $4 balance? I have reached the limit for evolve today, and I read weekends are not consistent. If I pay on Monday, it might be too late. Should I just wait until Tuesday, after all Evolve payments post, and call Wells Fargo to take $4 out of my checking account?

6 Digits, as in $100,000k+ per month!?!?!? Assuming a 2% swipe fee, that's costing them at least $2k per month x 8 months or $16,000 dollars. I wonder why in the world they went cash only?? Good lord people, use a little discretion if you want this stuff to stay alive.

Not diminishing the plea for moderation which is good at any activity (well, almost any) this assumes the store does not get any commission from sales, which I think is extremely unlikely

Evolve Money
 
Not sure, but they were very open and fine with me buying. There was another MSer that would hit the RLs as well from what I noticed and it's been awhile. I ramped up pretty slowly and in moderation, but once the store manager was ok about me buying so many, I would just try to checkout with him. New store manager now = new rules. Just picked up a batch tonight though, so maybe I need to start going late at night.

with wells fargo i have been paying the remainder payment from my checking account, once all the payments hit your account and the total equal your monthly amount, WF will post your monthly payment.
