Just received a couple of orders from 7/12 yesterday

The new embossed style of the card looks cheap

I thought I saw someone confirm this but rapid reorder works fine for cashback right?

Yes, as it says on the new labeling, default PIN is the last 4. I've also found the iOS application no longer works for activation, whether by typing or taking a picture. So, it's back to playing with Captcha.

I prefer the non-raised ones - easier to stack a bunch of cards in the pocket..

And for people who activate on a computer and hate typing the numbers, pick this one up - https://www.amazon.com/Deftun-3-Trac.../dp/B01DVWQ2BO - works beautifully..

Very cool. Do you just swipe when they say enter the card number???

Yes, usually the reader reads the 16 digits card number and some more numbers off the stripe.. But in this case, the giftcards.com/activate page just accepts the first 16 digits and ignores the rest..

IMO, this reader is a must have if you are serious about MS - when I receive a batch of cards, I use this to archive the card numbers (along with manually entering CVV) - to protect against cards loss.

holy crap that is useful, thanks.

confirmed - it opens up a second window, but at least for topcashback.com it tracks it.

same for droid - i hate captcha - the app was so easy and convenient.

DP: All of my cards arrived today via Priority Mail even though I didn't pay for that option. They are definitely aware of the delays.

Do any of you use topcashback when you order from gift cards.com?

I ordered last week for the first time and the order hasn't tracked and I had to file a claim. I just wanted to make sure that this is not an ongoing trend.

Thanks

I always go incognito and make sure I'm logged into gc.com first before clicking over from TCB. Everything has tracked for me so far, and they pay the fastest.

Wake me up when they start offering the better quality cards with raised letters.

TCB seems pretty good. About 3 weeks ago I requested a payout of about $140 via ACH. A week ago I noticed never received it. I submitted a support ticket and they said that there was an issue and they are looking into it. I heard back from them yesterday and they said that that payment was being held back due to concerns on my account. They asked me why I buy so much from giftcardmall. Giftcardmall has not given me any problems other than calling me once about 2 months ago. I probably have ordered about $10k a month from them over the past 4 months.

And I do almost the opposite. I don't use incognito mode and I don't log into GC.com first. I log into my TCB account first, search for GC.com on TCB to check the cashback rate, and then allow TCB to then click me over to giftcards.com.

TCB will track the order without issue the vast majority of the time. I am now receiving a same day email from TCB documenting that the order was tracked.

I use both TCB and SBC (depending on which site offers the best rate). On rare occasions in the past, I've had to file a claim, but I can't remember if the few orders that failed to track were via TCB or SBC.
