I have tried denominations of $5k, $4k, and $3k. I have never ordered Amex GCs before so not sure what the issue is. I called Barclays - the say all is good on their end. I called Amex twice and one guy told me to keep it under $5k (I had it at $5k and $8.95 shipping) and the other told me it MAY be due to the same address. Makes no sense ... thoughts?

TIA!!
You say you used cards of other family members, but are you trying to order through the same Amex account? You are limited to $5K per account on Amex for personal cards. You could order business cards instead if you are trying to order on the same account. If you don't have an account with Amex, then I don't know how that works, maybe the same address is then treating these all as one account.
