But I didn't get any emails or notices from them about changes to the 4 payments per month or a notice that my bill was denied and account was locked.

I would be really careful dealing with this company. The card I used to pay now have a zero balance because Evolve authorized a charge. I have to wait 10 days to get my money and the telephone customer service at Evolve is atrocious. It's worse than American Express Gift Cards which I thought would be impossible to be worse than.

They are allowing you to pay your bills w/ GC's for FREE. Play by their rules and stop complaining. Everyone knew the end would eventually come for evolve and this is just step 1.

Yes. I got blocked and got no email from Evolve. I called and they said I was blocked and there was nothing they can do about it. I did not abuse anything or circumvent any rule, etc. They told me two weeks ago they revised the rule to no more than 4 payments per biller and since I exceeded that my biller is permanently blocked.

their unwritten rules change by the week

I just called, 4 payments/mo maximum per bill pay account. Since the limit is $1000/day, you can make up to $4000/mo per bill (over 4 days). The issue is that for those with more than $2000/mo that needs to be paid (like my mortgage), time to be creative and pay part of the bill with a non-prepaid debit card like Paypal Business Debit or regular bank one.

Or find a way to buy $1000 OV or VGC! Thoughts?

When I called, I waited about 10 minutes before someone informed me that they have changed the payment limit to 4 per month and it resets on the 1st of the month. I was told I did nothing wrong, just that they had changed their policy.

It sucks, as I had a nice little loop but back to the old way to liquidate/billpay.

so not revolve 30 days? good to know this

$1000 OV or VGC would be fantastic. Lower fees, more Evolve.

We can dream.

Save those for T-Mo.

No reason to save when you have an unlimited supply. Still cheaper than a GC and you can pay up to $1000 with them through Evolve.

I'm jealous of the unlimited supply. Mine is very, very limited. I'm pretty sure if I ramp up, I'll be done quickly.

Decided to stop using evolve since it is such a hassle, with the exception of small monthly gas/electric bills. I've got some large car/daycare/mortgage bills and due to the caps it is way less hassle to just pay the extra fees and do amex for target.

Since I was mainly using this as a way to cash out $200 Staples VGCs I can now only pay for $800 of my mortgage before I'm tapped out. This month I paid the rest with a T-Mo card on my mortgage company's website. They allow Visa debit card payments on there. Tried a VGC and it wouldn't work. Oh well, I guess I'm earning 5% CB paying the rest with T-Mo at least.

Any experiences with Nationstar Mortgage? I'm planning on making the payments this weekend so that they all post on Monday. Has anyone tried that with this company?
