Obviously, nothing new to share about Simon. I do know some areas are experiencing tightening for ms'ers and that's not good. Wish I had a relative working at Simon. Would love to walk in and buy 40 cards without hassel, but in some areas that would get ms'ers shutdown. I know, I did it to my area when everything seemed to be going well, so I thought, and I got more than anyone else (didn't realize until later) and that brought attention which then caused problems for everyone. I learned a great lesson. Glad it's not like that everywhere yet.
I love the comment about the highest rated new network - pretty much gave it away and do they discuss news? I always thought it was a bunch of old white men complaining that everything is Obama's fault.

How does Blackhawk not play well with MS? Because their website doesn't accept AGC?

Seems to me that the fear over Blackhawk is from people getting shutdown for buying too many online. unless you filling out a form everytime you buy one of these at the mall I don't see how Blackhawk would know if you bought too many at the mall.
Until I see credible evidence that Blackhawk cards will no longer work, I won't get all worked up about it. And even then like VR vanilla and everything else we'll just adapt

Not true. You can buy Visa, although the [redacted] who programmed website block you from buying a $500 GC because they factor in the $2.95 fee. Thus, you can only order 1 $497 GC.

You aren't buying the Visa from Simon anymore, you are buying them directly from Giftcardmall(Blackhawk). Look at your browsers address bar after you click to order a visa card.

Does one need a biz account to do this? Don't see any link for buying a visa in the personal GC page.

Noticed that too. Hopefully they fix it.

Then pick a design, and click Add to Cart, then it will ask if you want Visa or Amex, if you pick visa it then directs you to GiftcardMall(Blackhawk). If you Select Amex it keeps you on the Simon Mall Site.

VisaŽ Si... x1 $497.00
Purchase... x1 $2.95
Sub Total $499.95
Shipping Cost $1.99
Total $501.94
cost $4.94 now to get a $497 card. Rounds to a 1% cost. Not as good as it was a couple days ago. Can only buy 1 card at a time. Shipping kills it.
