Anyone having issues purchasing VGCs?

I tried 2 different stores yesterday and another one just now, after csr swipes my DL, they get an error about a system issue.

No issues yesterday. I recommend scrolling up to previous pages to look at people with this same issue. For me it was the magnetic strip on the DL and replacing it fixed the issue.

Uggh, csr scanned the barcode at all 3 stores.

I haven't purchased in a while.

I had a good run in January 2018 where I went 22 straight days to CVS within 9:20 to 10pm when they closed after my kids went to bed. Just gotta get that +1 minute!

anybody try the paypal reload recently at CVS? the new way is having the CSR scan your paypal app at the register -- is it still cash only most places? I see the big paypal sign by the giftcard kisosk, but getting mixed information from cash register attendants who cant figure out if its credit card or cash, since "nobody ever uses the paypal thing"....

Anybody try the paypal reload with an old my cash card? instead of having them scan the app, have them scan the old paypal cash card ?

miss paypal at cvs ...

I don't know if this has been answered before, but these gift cards are purchased with a CC? I've been reading the thread for days!!

I'm new to this, i didn't know you can buy gc with freedom card! That is awesome!

Anyone know if the Serve temp cards at CVS are cash only? They are at a Walgreens I tried recently but not sure about CVS.

Could be a bunch of things, but the magnetic strip issue is a common one. $13 from my DMV for a new one, and I was good to go

I have a brand new ID and they pretty much exclusively use the handheld scanner in my area.maybe I'll try asking that they swipe it next time.

Looks like they have blacklisted my DL for some reason.

I have a CVS that allows me to use passport.

Tried spouse's driver's license. Has never been used to buy cards. Same message popped up.

they have not been able to scan my DL for the last few months. I buy early in the morning and the staff knows me, they have to manually enter it.

What do you say to get them to enter it manually?
