Hi @samwaters. I'm wondering where you found the documentation for these errors?

@jenyeeiam From the vantiv documentation iirc (bit of a blast from the past!)
https://vantiv.github.io/sandbox/#responseCodes - I have no idea how up to date these are though

They're actually pretty good! These are a lifesaver thank you!!
