This thread is a continuation of the previous discussion located here.
See post #412 - Ordering gc's thru the Kroger site will post fuel points to the associated shopper card upon shipment of physical cards and email delivery for e-gc's. Points are earned in the same increments as if you bought them at the store (usually 2x or 4x if there is a promotion). Transactions are processed by GiftCardMall and therefore do not earn additional points/cb from your credit card issuer for a "supermarket purchase".

Yeah, bank not seeing transaction is definitely MO of being blocked by Kroger.

The deal may or may not be partially dead. I don't mind sharing but it's really just standard MS. Go to Kroger, buy three cards and make sure the value of the miles/points is worth a reasonable amount more than the $18 in fees you are paying. Assuming the value of the miles/points is worth what you think is a reasonable value, then repeat.

kroger has a hard limit of purchase on a CC per day, and they absolutely block based on your entire credit card number.

DP: was able to buy a WU money order for 0.69. GC was $500, so asked for $499.31 (this was actually a GC I received for a service, not me MSing).
GC was a Bancorp that points me to prepaidcardstatus. Not sure if it was OV or Vanilla since I was given this GC. Front says 'RewardCard', DEBIT, and is a Visa.

DP Bought a $500 VGC this morning at my first stop. Package said $5.95 fee. It rang up at $4.95. At my second stop saw signage that said "Now only $4.95“
