Just curious what everyone's spending patterns are. I have 5 NW cards spread over 2 parents. Typical $1000/mo load to each and have been doing $200 weekly ATM withdrawals for each teen. Today was able to load to my RC without issue. No other purchase activity besides ATM. Any data points of people doing this consistently (ie nothing but $200 ATM withdrawals) for months without any issues from NW?

I think it is by the clerk based.
There is one clerk in my nearby Walmart does that on Serve. I always try to avoid her. There is also only one clerk in another Walmart will forbid me to purchase VGCs with credit card.
There are about one fifth of CS reps at Kroger will check match on debit card and drivers license to purchase MOs.
You just need to recognize and avoid them.

I'm so entitled that I think Buxx should waive my loading fees because of the amount of time I spend waiting for their site to load.
Seem reasonable?
