Same issue, I posted in the bluebird thread. Did not work at Kate or cashier for bluebird. The title implies it was a no go for bill pay and money order also? I'm hoping this is a problem on the usbank end. Perhaps someone should be a guinea pig and try a regular purchase with pin.

If this is true it's going to be another nail in the WM coffin as a MS outlet. This would mean only META bank still alive.

Nooo I've been relying heavily on SM for meeting large min spends! Hopefully this is cleared up by next week

Has anyone tried it anywhere else such as grocery store MO or a small purchase elsewhere via debit?

I had the same invalid pin error at about 130pmEST. Posted about it in the other thread as well as I had not seen this earlier.

One of my gc are blocked for 24 hours b/c I tried the pin 3x's!!

I'm hoping this is only temporary...

Did anyone hit their $2.5k limit yesterday and is now trying to reload earlier than 24 hours after yesterday's max load? Maybe with the daily $2.5k limit raise there was a switch to 24 hours rolling?

Seems like a calculated, predictable move to me. WM and the other big players have recently done a lot to curb MS. And just the other day they raised the BB load limit to $2500/day. I doubt they did that so people could MS more. So it makes sense to me that they're killing MS right after they did that.
