This morning when I tried to get MO from WM MC, TD declined my authorization. I have a balance of $1500 (most recent 1k load on 8/1). I first tried two $749.30 MO transactions, then one $749.30, both failed. Then I tried to load $20 (as a test) to BB at kate it declined. Came back home and checked BB and TD accounts, the $20 transaction was posted! In the past 7 days I have drained $1500, and I forgot to remember the $2k/7day limit on spend. Before today, my last spend was on 7/31. I'll try again when my spend limit reset on 7th. The moral of the story is that I should have set alerts to remind myself of these rolling limits.

Yup, I have it set up on my calendar for reloads -- but spends I do every 2 weeks so that takes care of all limits anyway :). If you get yourself into a routine, I think it becomes much easier

TD sent me a mail which said there are no load fees till the new date ($1) so its free loading and unloading till then. Hope this helps.

This was such an easy/cheap way to MS. Sad to see it go...onto the next one!

I'm glad I was able to finish churning a bunch of AA Exec 100K cards before it ended :D

Now that the TD Go card is changing, which is the next best Buxx card to get? I'm guessing the NW Buxx if the USB Buxx is really unavailable (any hidden link?).

Is it worth looking into if I have a few family members I can spin up as parents and teens?

From reading the wiki it says its Max load per rolling 30 days is only 1000
...that sure isnt much....and if you were to get from an ATM you would have to go to the ATM 5 times per month...not including phone calls to reverse $1 charges that get put on there by mistake.

Someone may clarify on ways around that limit but to me it seems easier to go grab a paypal mycash or a gift card and be done with the 1k a month amount in an hour or two instead of 5 trips to the ATM and 5 phone calls about a fee reversal....

...but to each their own.

when you registered, you had a log in email and PW as parent, they won't send you that info except to say the registration was successful.

Anyone having problems paying their AA Citi card bills with their TD Go card lately? Or is it going through just fine still.

What are you talking about, 5 trips to the ATM? One trip to WM for MO and your done.

I think just about everyone here who's gotten the TD card screwed up the timing on the load or unload once or twice. I've done it, and I even have some experience with the Target AMEX prepaid card which has similar (but easier to remember) rules. It's never fun when you're at the Walmart counter and your transaction is declined because you've spent more than $2000 in 7 days.

Happened to me on Sunday. I got my timing messed up in my haste to get it all in before 9/3. I had the loading schedule down but didn't realize the 7 day unload. Now that I have it down to a science, it's of no use to me.
