Bought a $500 visa gift card (will pay myself back with urs) at Kroger yesterday. Card is activated and not blocked but wouldn’t run through as a debit at food lion to buy a MO. Called customer service and they registered it and told me to wait an hour. I swear I have terrible luck with visa gift cards from Kroger.
So frustrating! I’ve had issues with registering them online and I think a couple times with the Staples vgc also which is bad enough, but when you have problems in store I think it’s doubly discouraging. Hope it will work for you now!
 
I called on Sunday to check on old tickets we have and to see about purchasing an AP since we are in the same situation - cancelled our AP last year due to covid. I was told they are not selling AP's right now and he did see in our account that we have had AP's since 2001. I may try again this morning and just listen to Disney music for hours while on hold. I was on hold Sunday for 2 1/2 hours and got disconnected after 10 minutes! Let us know if you have any luck.
I don’t have time to sit with my phone on hold while watching ds. It just isn’t possible. That’s why I’ve had such issues. I’ve been trying to put a request on our reservation and can’t get through. I think we’ll buy the 1 day ticket and either go to guest services while there or try to call on the weekend. Now we have to decide if we wanna go on Monday or Tuesday to MK. We get there Sunday and leave Wednesday. We wanted to do MK Monday so we have Tuesday to relax at the fort but Monday will cost $60 more
 
I had an awful time getting a problem with my park tickets fixed via phone last month and ended up emailing them with my problem. Somebody got back with me re a fix for my problem in about a week. So email may be a way around the long wait times if you don’t want to tie up your phone for the day.
I’ve always had pretty good luck with emailing so that’s why I decided to send one. Hopefully they get back to us

Update. Called again this morning. Was on hold over an hour but had the NICEST CM who researched our AP history and saw we cancelled them during Covid and let us purchase new AP's!!!

Gosh I need this to happen! I just don’t know how to get it done without being on hold forever

It's not just you. I've never had a problem with the US Bank ones from Kroger loading to Serve, but 4/10 of the US Bank $100 ones would not let me load to Serve. So I did the same thing and called and registered, still didn't work with Serve. Thought maybe the problem was with FD and Serve so I tried paying $100 towards my electric bill and that was denied too. I guess I'll have to call again. And now yesterday I couldn't load a $500 one from Walmart to Serve. Feel like my MS days may be coming to an end. I decided with the luck I'm having I'd hold off on getting the MGC from Staples this week.

Boo! No way to offload into MOs?

That was always my plan B, but now that's it's here I'm not sure I feel like it, especially given all the problems at at WM with using VGC. And I'm thinking if it's not going to work for Serve it probably wouldn't work for MOs. So far the variables are still working from Kroger and the ones from Staples last month, so I still have something, but things are definitely getting more difficult.
 
Sorry I've been quiet lately guys - I have 10 loans in the pre-closing stage so I'm quite the busy banker right now.

That said, I do owe the group this:

Here's your friendly reminder that Southwest Airlines next schedule release is expected to occur on THIS THURSDAY April APRIL 1ST For those planning to snag flights, set those calendar reminders so you don't forget! I'll post additional reminders as the date draws nearer.

Currently SW is offering flights through 8/16/21 and this next release will take their schedule out to 11/5/21.
For those that care about "release timing" it can vary, but here are the recent "go live" of previous releases:

I have a Chase offer on CIP that hasn't posted to the account yet. It shows in 'Redeemed' though. So it's safe to downgrade to CIU now?
 
Cell phone plan recommendation for a single user (ds)? He's been on his dad's verizon unlimited plan. I'm leaning toward Mint Mobile unlimited but am open to other suggestions.
 
Seriously - yesterday I was thinking about sending out a search party!

Lol!!! Between now and June our resident busy bee banker will be getting all the work he can under his belt to meet his yearly quota so he can relax and enjoy the rest of the year.

Now watch him come back and state he's already hit the quota!
 
I would try your best to call right at 7am. I needed to change the dates of our tickets and called at 7am and got right through. Less than a 5 minute wait.

And be happy you are in est and not pst. 😁 I'm hoping if I do end up needing to call about sept that they'll have more people as I really don't want to get up at 4am knowing I could be on hold and not able to go back to sleep like I would for fps.

LOL I’m not gonna lie most mornings I’m up at 4 anyway. Dh and I switch watching ds at that time. We take shifts overnight. I definitely wouldn’t want to have to call then though
