Not sure giving a call to incomm will solve anything since the fund is there. I have 2 walmart and it doesn't matter which types I use from usb, ss, vanilla, it always said "debit not available" but I have no problem using at other walmarts.

Thanks. I did drive to a WMSC and then a WMNM today. Both exact same error with two cards. Very strange. Will try again in a few days.

Which credit cards are MS friendly for buying those VGC at WM? Is WF "B I L T" a no-go? Rent day is close and wanted to give it a shot.

When WF offered cards with more generous benefits, there were occasional shutdowns. Also, if the WF branch network is important to you, I wouldn't bother with MS. Their current cards lineup isn't that attractive for the purpose.

Thanks for the response.

Which cards are more attractive? The ones with 3(x / %) grocery multiplier?

Of course higher earning opportunities are good -- there are 4x, 5x (with earning caps). Point redemption values >1c are also attractive.

The Vanilla Gift card issued by Pathway(purchased from Walmart directly) seems stops working for MO and Serve Load at Walmart. system takes it first but reverse later.
I waited a few days and tried two different stores and it was the same
Anyone experienced the same?

In my area all 4097 cards stopped working in WM around July.

Suttons are no longer on the rack, but I don't remember when they were pulled. I tried all available flavors of 4097 shortly after the change (certainly Vanilla Pathward, SS), and none of them worked for money services -- MO, Discover loads, or BB

409758 still working in AZ. However, they will not work if I check the balance online or reset the pin prior to liquidation. Have to call in to get the fraud lock released. Also won’t work if for some reason they fail once, and I immediately try again. Need to let them sit for at least 24hrs prior to trying again. So I guess they can be finicky. I typically open the package, wait 24hrs, and then liquidate without any issues.

They worked for me yesterday for Serve loads at WM. No reversal so far.
