Except that there is a redcard opportunity cost to consider

Now that cc is dead I have more red card/bluebird loads available to me then I know what to do with!

What is the process when loading the VGC to RC (I've never used them before)? Do I tell them charge it as debit and then I use the last 4 digits as pin? Also, does splinting tender work with this? If yes, would I ask them to do $1000 - split, $1,000 - split, and $500 - split?

supposedly, though I never tried it so I can't vouch for it firsthand

Thanks. How do you liquidate a bunch?

I USED to run them as CC, and it automatically drained each card and then asked for another one until I hit the load amount (usually $1k)

I've drained 5k over 2 red cards in one shot as debit cards, no issues whatsoever

What's your method?

oiseli48 · « **Reply #89 on:** May 10, 2015, 01:47:45 PM »

Split tender. Swipe red card for 1k, and say I'm paying with debit cards for 200 each

IME, it's a lot easier to buy large amounts at OD, as all they have to do is scan the back of the package of the vanillas. At OM, they have to peel off the strip over the bar code each time. Cashiers at OM get pretty stressed when they see a pile.

And it's a pain to peel off the sticker

Peel it off for them. Some of them just got their nails did and would really appreciate not having to peel all those strips.

Staples employee showed me a neat trick, use the corner of another vgc packet to pop the strip off, works very fast

In the Nanuet location there is a sign that VGC is cold for cash only.

It says $20-$500 cards (variable load) are cash only. Nothing about set denominations.

I just tried doing that at gateway and they said one debit card per load!
