Chase Gift Cards:
GAME OVER
We’re sorry, but we no longer offer Chase Gift Cards.
We will continue to honor current Chase Gift Cards. If you have a Chase Gift Card, you may continue to use it until the funds are depleted or upon card expiration.
If your existing Chase Gift Card has been damaged, lost or stolen, you can redeem the balance or get a replacement Card by calling us at
1-866-466-0079, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Use that number if you have questions about your existing Chase Gift Card.
www.chasewebgiftpurchase.com/index.cfm - [No longer working]
https://www.chase.com/online/Checking/gift-card.htm/ [No longer working as of 9/20/13]
$500 max value per card
Can be used as debit
Call # on card to set pin
There are some limitations to using gift cards as opposed to debit cards, but these are functioning very well as debit cards. So please follow the number one rule of manufactured spend: DON"T CALL THE BANKS.

How do you expect the economy to keep running if you don't? We need the statistics on consumer spending to go UP. These statistics are used for very important purposes. So do something good for your country, please. But remember the limits so you don't get shut down.

Everyone is free to assume their own level of risk. Most do not choose an extreme level.

Americans? It's a pretty common attitude throughout the First World.

This is the problem, we Americans think a little is good so A LOT MORE is better and do not know when to stop... People can justify 80K a month without skipping a beat and then wonder why they had been shut down...

I hope this hasn't been answered yet but I did a search...
I noticed in the Bluebird FAQ that states we can only load $1,000 a month through debit cards, which I am under the assumption that the Chase GC cards are viewed as. Is this something you guys have been experiencing? I just bought a ton of Chase GCs and now I wish I read the FAQ before doing so

Not advisable. Best to keep each transaction under 2500 to avoid being added to "the list".
