decided to call in before a 3rd attempt but darn it was told that they have to mail another replacement vgc b/c the card is now locked after a 2nd declined trxn 😒; now will have to wait another 7-10 days...
How did folks liquidate a pathward-card replacement? Still need to spend less than full balance or make a small organic spend first?

Well, the 2 SSVGCs (both Meta/Incomms) are being replaced. Tried even to buy something in person at a different store I go to regularly. No go - CSR was kind enough to tell me it was a fraud alert on his end.
Pathward SSVGC loaded just fine.
Will try another couple Meta/Incomms tomorrow - since they DID work 3-4 days ago.

Tried to load $500 with PW/BHN, 435880, got debit not available, card was activated a week ago. Changed PIN before loading. Did not try again. Instead, had another card which did work (PW/Incomm)
Based on what my 2 minutes of searching thread, and this being my first BHN card; appears max you can load onto discover is $480 with BHN? Will try this later in the week or a couple other methods for unloading.

Some BHN's definitely work for more than 99 (at least in my location) - just this week I've successfully used a few dozen Everywheres (they fall under the BHN umbrella) at 200/swipe for Discover loads at WM.

any folks know the difference of errors between 'debit not approved' & 'debit not available'?

Data point from today in NorCal The cards were:
1. SSV BIN 4097 5817 exp 01/33 which was a replacement for prior failed SSV
2. Vanilla Sutton/Incomm BIN 4118 1038 exp 2/33 which was a replacement for a prior failed Vanilla Sutton/Incomm
3, 4, 5, 6: Vanilla Sutton/Incomms bought in the same transaction a week or so ago, all were BIN 4118 1035 exp 5/32
Cards 1, 2, and 3 failed for $250. Card 4 failed for $100.
I gave up and purchased a $12.xx item at SCO. Cards 1-4 failed as expected. Card 5 succeeded. So I went back to MC and tried again:
First $500 load: Card 5 succeeded for its remaining $487.xx, then Card 6 worked for $12.xx to total $500.
Second $500 load: Card 6 succeeded for its remaining $487.xx and I used a real debit card for the remaining $12.xx to total $500
So maybe the secret as some have suggested is to make a small purchase first, but the small purchase CAN be at MC, not necessarily SCO or a register? And maybe this is just silly, but maybe it helps if the first swipe is not for an even dollar amount so it looks like a real purchase?
Fortunately I had a very friendly and helpful CSR who knows what we're doing and even told me that Vanillas don't work & was surprised when the last two did. I'm going to be sure to leave him a good review.
