So over the weekend i purchased a few (vanilla visa gift cards) and my transaction got declined. I also tryed to use them at a couple of retail stores and also got denied.

TwstdWrstr 10 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 A few things - have you called the toll free number on the card to verify the card was activated properly when purchased?Also, if you have say a $50 card, and you purchase an item greater than $50, if the cashier just swipes the card without entering "$50.00" the card will come back as declined, over limit.Finally, make sure the card isn't marked "For domestic use only" Link to post Share on other sites

Ezz 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Jcash,I'm in Honolulu too and I get the gift cards from Safeway and Times (allaccessgift) if I need to reload my account.

finztotheleft 0 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 yep, the PayTRU cards...that's what I've been using and i've had zero problems thus far.They say their quota has been filled for number of Paytru cards they will give out, so if we don't already have one, we are out of luck Link to post Share on other sites

My Stars account was busto and I was maxxed on my checking account ATM so I message my buddy and say 'hey ship me 5 hundo on Stars'...the transfer gets there and I immed cash out and bam the money was in my Pay Tru account.....I hit the ATM up not even 10 mins later and had money to load up on brewskis and take a weekend trip to Tahoe with.Pay Tru rocks Link to post Share on other sites
