Yes, they are. I've used my Giant-PA card and gotten gas at Martin's a few times.

My bad, thanks for clarifying. So, Pathward or Sutton better, does it matter?

Liquidate all gc on gaming apps. No fees. It's much easier that way


QUOTE=profitone;35892521]Specific question-- but has anyone gotten Vanilla to work paying either Geico or Xfinity lately? Im getting rejects paying bills and of course Vanillas taj ma CS cant help me and just spews "use at another merchant"... I cant buy these if they dont work anywhere anymore.

Edit: What do these vanillas actually work for nowadays?

I got it to work paying medical and dental bills but thats about it. I want metabank back!![/QUOTE]

Tried to liquidate 2 $500 vanilla card that I bought at SS and got denied on both. Never had this issue before, anyone experienced the same?

I'm guessing he's referring to online gambling, but can't shed any light onto any specific provider.

On a local grocery store. The card was declined by issuer. I called and new cards will be sent out. So no one else has experienced this?

Did you attempt to use the entire balance of the SS card? If so, this has happened to many of us over in the Walmart thread. Next time, try a MO for less than the entire balance of the gc and it will likely work. I doubt that you needed to order replacement gc.

Thanks! I did not know that. I always use entire balance. 3/5 cards work 2 were declined today.

This is widespread and has been going on for about a month. See the Blueblird, Serve, Walmart threads and MS weekly thread over on the churning subreddit for more info.
