This is a new thread for 2018. The previous discussion can be found here.

As of Nov 11, 2020, Meta gebits are getting declined when used for MO/BP purchases at MC/SD. New limit appears to be $99 per swipe. READ the posts below and add a data point with details. USB and GD gift cards do not seem to be affected.

DETAILS:
As of Dec 2019, WM BP in-store is reportedly affected by the $8000 total limit across all cards.
As of Nov 1, 2018, WM Billpay made via the WM app is limited to a total of $8000 total per person to all accounts per rolling 30 days.

Sep 13 2021 : If WM App is updated with no money services , then use the following for Android phone to get the working version.


https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type...ge=1&s=walmart
My working version is 21.12 (21120123)
Fyr : https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/0...n-app-android/

This workaround no longer works.

Bill Pay cannot be done at a regular register. BP must be done at Customer Service/Returns or at the Money Center in stores that have it.
WM offers two BP services: CheckFreePAY and MoneyGram. The cashier can initiate CheckFreePAY by selecting Money Services followed by Bill Pay on the register for a fee of $1-1.88. Moneygram is $4.99.
ONLY 4 successful debit card swipes can pay for a transaction. ONLY 5 payments per 16 digit account number per rolling 30 days.
CheckFreePay (800) 676-6148. - Look up payments using CC number and time of transaction
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BP by phone number lookup- Once your CFP account is set up, you can add CC. When you want to BP give them your phone# to look up your account under Money Services. They often get confused and think you want MG, but just say it is under Money Services. Make sure you get 2 receipts, one from WM and a small one from CFP showing the CC# and Biller name you paid.

WM App - The Money Services works in express lane for Bill Pay.

Receipt tips: If you don't get a receipt and they have to print you one, make sure the CC you paid appears on the printed receipt. If not on receipt, call CFP with the manager to verify there is no payment processing. They can cancel any transactions and pay you in cash right away. If they cancel the transaction and their cash drawer opens, that means they should pay you in cash, if it doesn't open, the money will probably return to your cards. Not sure what happens on the same day? Watch their drawer when they cancel the transaction to see if it opens. If they say the money will return to your DC, make sure to write down the managers name in case it doesn't.

Payments:
Most cc can be paid 5 times by Visa/MC and 5 times by the issuing bank in rolling 30 days with a total of 10. There might be an 8K limit per rolling 30 days starting Oct 2018.

BUSINESS DAY transaction completion time is 18:59:59 EST (Holidays change post day)

Friday after 06:59PM EST, until Monday BEFORE 07:00PM EST arrives Tuesday
Tuesday BEFORE 7:00PM arrives Wednesday
Wednesday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Thursday
Thursday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Friday
Friday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Monday
But when a next-day payment will post and be visible depends upon the CC issuer.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Choose to pay by Visa/MC card issuer OR by issuing bank - see the 2 sections below.

:-:VISA and MC - card issuer-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If your particular card isn't on the list below, try "VISA" or "MASTERCARD."

"VISA" and "MASTERCARD" payee can no longer be found by search at some stores. If the employee can no longer find "VISA" or "MASTERCARD" by searching in CheckFreePAY, then you cannot pay either, end of story.

Following do not work:

Based on past DPs nobody here could ever figure it out.
the app seems very glitchy. One time it got me to the part to verify by text code, but it took 5-10 mins for the text to arrive and in that time I rebooted my phone to force the text to come in and had to start over on the app. Since it hasn't verified me.

Hey ricohitman
I read thru all post from 2019 and i seem to be running into these Transaction Declined errors like you have in the past.
These are my In-App payments that went thru fine and now i am blocked or banned or maybe on timer based hold ??
8/2 - 500
8/5 - 500
8/6 - 500
8/7 - 500
8/8 - 500
8/9 - 500
8/10- 500
8/10- 500
8/11- 500
8/15- 500
8/20- 500
8/24- 500

I know you mentioned your P2 account also started getting the same transaction declined issues with in-app payments, but in-store payments still works fine for you.
Did you get your P1 accounts in-App payments to work since Christmas after x months or are they still banned...

I had 10 days vacation in Jan 2020 due to job relocation. I lived by myself so I rented a camry at hertz to do MS only. I was doing $15K per day every day at least MO and billpay combined for 10 days straight. My 4 citibank credit cards closed in March if I recalled correctly. pts are forfeited but I received all AA pts on my AA account surprisingly in the next billing. Chase, BoA AS, and Capital One are all OK. I am CPC I don't know if that helps.

I lost all seven personal Chase cards last summer despite being CPC, or perhaps indirectly because of it. It seems best to not have any banking relationship with Chase if you value their CCs.

Chase. Citi names higher tier citigold when I banked with them but citi really sucks. I mean worldwide. as well as HSBC. HSBC closed my account after I deposit only 4 or 5 MOs and My HSBC USA and HSBC account in HK both were shut down. They connected. My banker friend told me because HSBC was fined for helping money laundering in San Diego. So HSBC were super cautious.

May I ask how heavy were you putting on Chase CC weekly or monthly? I cannot afford to get Chase shut down. It is just way too valuable in MS games

If you can't afford to be without Chase, I'd recommend not MS-ing with Chase.

Anyone else having issues adding BoA personal cards to the app? Trying to pay the Premium Rewards card and it keeps getting the "Oops something went wrong" msg. Tried both BoA NA and BoA CC. I'm having no issues with BoA biz cards.

Where in the process does it give you an error? After entering the card # or entering the billing zip on the next page?

After entering the CC number. I triple checked the number, it's correct.

Not all billers that can be found, necessarily work as they should. Some just fail for unexplained reason. Try paying VISA biller (or Mastercard) with your CC#.
