With the site redesign, I can't see where to change the PINs for the Nationwide Buxx. Anyone have any ideas? Is it maybe possible over the phone?

I attempted to add Arrival+ in Buxx for a while. I can't even add the credit card. I did not attempt to fund yet it shows as "temporary authorization $0.00" on my Arrival. I know it will go away but that was weird.
Also, my CA limit is 2k. 2k CA on 5k CL is weird but whatever.

Also, I was finally able to add my new US Bank Biz card. Now the purchase won't go through. It worked fine on the other US Bank Biz card.

I tried the other Biz card that used to work. It added through fine but didn't go through b/c of the same error. I think it just isn't gonna work atm. Will try later. I funded successfully 3 days ago using this very card that didn't go through now. Have you been able to load any card right now?
As for Arrival, yes I tried it about a month ago. I should probably use the card for more than just 0.50 cent amazon charge.
