Specifics?
For example:
In one brooklyn location (IIRC flatbush & Nostrand) I went to CS, they told me that each CSR has a (IIRC daily) limit imposed by the manager they're allowed to load per RedCard. One guy was only allowed to do $500 "because he's new," another woman there was allowed to do $1000. When I went to the cashier they first told me they can't do it, I need to go to CS, but there was a cashier there who did it for me. (the remaining $1000 on the first card and $2500 on the second.)
My wife was in Gateway yesterday, (I think this was at a cashier, but I'm not sure, I'll have to ask her.) she tried doing the "FT method" but the cashier(?) said the manager doesn't allow it. She had to do separate transactions.
I don't know about Bronx Terminal.
