Might you be beyond the limits for adding new funding sources?

I don't have my notes handy but it is something like: 1 a day, 3 in 30 days, 6 in 180 days.

And now for a trip down memory lane..
Remember these?
They are long gone, don't get excited.

I just tried loading my bluebird at a Walmart with my TD and it wouldn't go through. It asked for a different tender. I then tried to buy a money order and still no go. I've been successful loading my bluebird at my local WM other than them checking to see the name matches and is on my debit card.

Is there anything going on? I'm trying to max out my TD before September 3. Thanks for any insight.

Walmart seems to be having issues this weekend. OV have started working intermittently but for the first time ever I got failures on some USB VCGs. Transaction error codes were fairly random. I haven't tried TD this weekend though. This was for loading BB at a Kate/kiosk.

Thanks. Glad to see not just me. Not happy to see there are problems. On my way to my local WM. Hopefully it will be ok. My husband is already to kill me.

How long did it take you guys to get your us bank buzz card in the mail? It has been 10 business days and nothing so far

I tried loading $1000 and it wouldn't go through. The cashier suggested doing 2 $500 loads. First went through but not the second. Hopefully things will be better later in the week.

Now how do I convince him to open up the NW and US Buxx cards?

If the first $500 went through and not the second, I would first look at your txn history on the card and make sure you're not running up against the $2k per rolling 7 days limit...

Failed for me last week (1 td worked, 1 didnt.). Went to a diff wm today and it worked fine

I thought the limit was just for funding TD. The money is in TD. I just couldn't get it out at Walmart.

My clock reset for the month on my bluebird and I didn't meet the limit for last month. I was able to take $60 out at my ATM.

Will be back to Walmart tomorrow.

Any other thought as to why I had a problem?

There is a $2k/7day limit on spend.

Thanks -- maybe the low limit will keep that one around for awhile longer. If it sticks around until Sept., I guess I'll open a couple of accounts to replace TD. Honestly, without category bonuses, I only find these cards worthwhile to meet minimum spends and replenish my Club Carlson points. I suspect the otherwise paltry returns is what prompts folks to open zillions of accounts: which then gets us all shut down.

Just to clarify, is that per card or per parent account? Their T&C isn't exactly clear.

Edit, sorry, the wiki says it's per teen account.

Per card. (This is for TD, btw; I hate when quoted text in this thread loses the reference to which product we're discussing)

Just showed reversed! And honestly...this is the most exciting/best news I've had all day.


Tried opening again. Got PFRAUD status now...will this auto move to Closed and reverse fees?

Also -- anyone know what PFRAUD is/fixable?

Thanks. I didn't know that.
