Called GC.com and gave the last 4 digits of the card from the order details and immediately blocked the card. But by the time 60 $ have been used in the same walmart by someone.

Now GC.com is sending me a new gift card for 440$. But when asked about the unauthorized 60$ ,they said they have no responsibility and cannot be disputed.

Now i see this form http://www.giftcards.com/lost-stolen-gift-card and asked them about it. They said u can send in , but there is no guarantee ill get the money back.

Any experience like this for any one and how to resolve it ? i am glad that iam getting most of the money , but still any idea on how to get the remaining money ?

I know it's been a few days, but you're pretty much out of luck. Prepaid debit cards are essentially cash. If you dropped cash on the ground, would you expect the bank that you got it from to reimburse you for it? You are lucky that whoever picked it up wasn't smart enough to figure out how much was on it or keep trying to use it. Take it as a lesson and treat your prepaids like cash in the future.

You should definitely fill out the form as they might get police or walmart to investigate (very unlikely over a small amount, but possible) and you might get the $60 back.

Anyone seeing delay in TCB tracking the orders from giftcards.com ? . Usually i used to get an email from TCB within like 1 hr with the tracking info about the order.

But on sat i placed an order and still havent received the tracking mail from TCB.

Yeah, slowed down a little over a week ago. Just saw Wed and Thur come in. Waiting on Friday and Saturday. All my 2% cards are near maxed so now I just need to get my butt over to Wally.

I just received 4 cards, was able to activate them, however I cannot set the PIN, I keep receiving an error trying to set it through the app. Is the PIN the last 4?

with all the issues with MB VGC being used for MO at PO, would it be better to order the MCGC since they are issued by bancorp?
