How is your experience in the latest gift card order?
Had an activation issue 2-3 yrs ago where they never marked the orders "shipped" so it wasn't possible to activate and the charge also got delayed. I ordered early so I just waited it out -- my charge eventually hit couple weeks later within the promo period so no problem getting the credit and it eventually activated.
Don't remember having any problem last year -- not too worried about it this time and main reason why I'm ordering it early since there's a month left to account for any delays (not expecting any delay this time)
