Did anyone get same error? A limit violation has occurred. When I tried to add the second teen card for my account.
PS: did anyone try to add the VGC as funding source? I succeed with the card purchased online while failed with the card purchased from grocery.

I used SW and Hyatt cards to make my initial loads, both appear to have coded as a purchase. Any data points on the Spark card and whether that raises any flags with Capital One?

Got "Maximum number of reloads reached." on one of my cards even though as of today I am definitely past my 30-day $1000 rolling limit. Anyone know if the rolling limit is calculated down to the hour and minute of the day? All I can come up with is that I loaded later in the day 31 days ago than I'm trying to load now.

ATM Help
Guys need your help on this. Acc to Wiki,"Max spend per rolling 7 days: $800". Does tat mean If i pay citi $800 via debit route than I cant use ATM to withdraw $200 tat same week? I paid Citi today and wasn't able to withdraw rest of $200. I even tried other amounts i.e. $100/$60 but nothing worked. Plz advise.
Thanks.
Thanks.

The max # of teen cards you can have for NW Buxx is 4, right? Should this be listed on the Wiki?
Also, per the previous post...max spend of $800 per 7 days...does that mean I can only pay off $800 at a time for per 7 days on my Citi cards if I pay off by phone? Does this also include transfers to other banks/Serve if at all possible?
