Noting: my Amazon account will only let me add 6 new credit/debit cards at a time, then I think I had to wait 1-2 hours to add more, so just had to do a few rounds that day to get them all in. But was a decent way to get these VGCs used up for organic spend at least

Not sure how you got it to work.

I cannot use BHN VGCs at Amazon via balance reload or direct payment for an item. I've tried both the $200 and $500 variants. The CSR told me that Amazon is just a prohibited vendor. Absolute bs for them to prohibit me from using a Visa Gift Card at the biggest vendor in the world.
