Why do I some times have problems using my Gift Card at pay at the pump at gasoline stations?
The card terminal in the pay at the pump stations automatically checks with Bank of America to see if your Gift Card has enough money left to pay for an average purchase of gas. If your Gift Card does not have enough money to pay for an average amount, your attempt to pay at the pump will be declined. The average gas purchase amount changes just as retail gas prices change. This check is in place to prevent people from spending more than the balance left on the Gift Card. To use up the remaining balance on your Gift Card when your pay at the pump attempt is declined, we recommend that you prepay at the cashier at the counter the dollar amount of gas you want to purchase.* *Anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted.
