Just did this for the first time today and went very smoothly as others described. The only thing is that when I look at my account online, it shows about 15 loads for the same amount, moving the account from many thousands of dollars in the negative to $500 positive (the account had a zero balance before today). In the end, the balance is correct. Wondering if it will delete those "fake" loads tomorrow? Anyone else have something similar?

Did you do this at a register or at the Customer Service/MC desk? I remember loading Serve but or BB at a regular register a long time ago without any problems. The good old days.

These loads can be done at any register with a cashier. But some cashiers are unfamiliar with this new service. I understand that when the customer inserts Discover Debit, the cashier gets instructions on their screen -- and they start acting more confidently from that point.

If they're hesitant as this cashier was, I found that saying "I think it's 70 action code" usually works.

I tried to load Discover Debit today but failed at a Walmart Neighborhood store. I went to customer service for the loading. I used a secure spend master gc (Bin 525362) I bought from a different Walmart yesterday. The lady did not care about the card I swiped, however, she asked whether the card is credit or debit. I said it should be a debit and tried to swipe again. There was no option to choose debit/credit/cashback. I think she is right that somehow the register only takes my SSMGC as a credit card.
I was able to buy a MO with secure spend vgc a couple of months ago. Is SS MGC not working for Walmart?
Thanks for any tips.

The cashier needs to do action code 72 for loading. However, many stores limit how much a cashier can load (some limit to $500 and some even less).

It's action code 70.
And don't use a MC - that is where you went wrong. You can try again but you'll need to swipe the MC BEFORE the cashier hits total/card. If they go to quickly I'll say "let me try and swipe it first." Then you'll need to select "Change Payment" then "Debit". (MC debits default to credit at WM.)
