I called Chase (the credit card i used for purchase) and they told me since this is instore purchase and it's a giftcard, they can't dispute the charge or claim insurance. I called CVS to ask them stop the payment to vanilla, they took my information and call me back within 10 business days.
Is there anyone has the same situation? what i need to do?
thanks in advance.
I always have the fear of losing VR card(s) after purchase. We make all the trips/ effort to earn $100 dollars (after VR fee for 5K purchase) and it sucks losing $500. Sad. I hope you find some way out to block your card.
