b) the funds will have been taken from the swiped cards, and you need to wait about a week to get the funds back
c) and the $2500 probably counts against your 24 hour rolling limit.
So: use higher-denomination AGC, or split in $2,500 purchases, or go to a CVS which doesn't have these policies (if there are any!)
That's right. Tied into the number of AMEX GC swipes. Currently carrying $1k AGCs so I should be able to max out my $5k. May just run $4k for a 5 swipe total just to play it safe. Hate carrying these $1k cards but only way I can get biz GC orders to go through, hah! Thanks!
