Target prepaid card is dying master thread

[ChaimMoskowitz]

IIRC on 4/1 is when CVS no longer took CC for VR; we take 4/1 very seriously around here

Reverse psychology.

By the PM's I have been getting it seems everyone is missing the date.
4/1 is April Fools Day

so the joke is that everyone thinks its a joke, but it's really dying. http://michaelwtravels.boardingarea.com/2015/02/manufactured-spending-target-prepaid-redcard-limiting-load-credit-card-1000-per-day/#sthash.YnjuDZA2.XtPIhAV8.dpbs

The best are his responses to people questioning an entire blog post off of one incidence.

Michael- There was no failure to load my card, just a failure to load $2500 for the day. Why shouldn’t I question what is going on based on the info I was told? Should I drive to Targets all over the tri-state area trying to load my card? Nah, I think it’s better to have a discussion about it here.

As for post’s title, I think it’s just fine.

Just loaded 500 at my target. Tried using brand new arrival and csp. Both declined immediately and I had to call in. Csp wasn't even activated. After the call the arrival worked but this IS NOT GOOD. TARGET OBVIOUSLY KNEW THERE WAS AN ISSUE. the cs rep was way too patient and understanding in target. There is CLEARLY SOMETHING BAD ABOUTVTO GO DOWN. GET YOUR LOADS IN BEFORE IT'S DEAD!!!

Sweet idea. i saw a guy on the train the other day take off a scarf and he suddenly went from hip hop to rabbi. It was scary

In all seriousness, should i post my data point in the CC thread? I feel like we don't have enough data points in general there.

Agreed. I think every data point should also be put into the Wiki so we can better keep track of it. And also, we should add the different letters, emails, notifications that store managers give DDF'ers about the end of the world coming.

-1. we should only track the letters and emails ddfrs are TOLD about. not emails that they actually see and are authentic.

On a serious note i always wear a hoodie so whenever I drive and expect to not be so nice (which is most times) i put on my hood

Someone once crashed into my car because he was wearing a hood- not so good for peripheral vision.

you have a good reason to doubt it because if i were an italian i wouldn't be putting on my hood just to make myself look like him

Please let's keep this in topic. This is not a thread for relaxing and having fun. It's a doomsday thread! Keep it appropriate!
