WM's policies in that regard seem to be store or district-based. My WMs are fine as long as you know the pin, others are fine as long as your name is on it. Still others say it has to be a bank-issued card. Hard to generalize about WM.

Don't know why people have a problem with this.

Here's their website. It specifically states a PIN-enabled debit card.

I had to ask my WM to get her manager, and then showed them the website.

They tried to pull the "its a gift card" and I said yes, it is, but it is a PIN-enabled debit card, so you can accept it.

Havent ever had an issue since.

Good luck with that. I find that the Wally is either nice or mean. There is nothing on there that mentions mutliple cards are fine and you'll surely eventually meet someone that accuses you of structuring. Umm, I'm paying my bills and then they'll say yes, but you are using multiple payments lol.

Looks like I've been flagged for excessive buying amounts. Interested in what other members are buying daily weekly and monthly

What does that mean? Are you banned from buying from GC.com?

MOs, easily. I know I can easily liquidate 4.5k MOs everyday, but I don't really have the time for that.

Can anyone confirm which bank issues Mastarcard GCs on giftcards.com? Is it USB, Bancorp, or Metabank?

And 9 weeks to get it.

Looks like GC.com is once again charging for the paper gift card when buying visa GC. $1.50/card. Up until now selecting the "Make 'em smile" card would be free, but that now shows $1.50/card. This happens with both a totally new order and if I do "Rapid re-order" for one of my old orders.

Bad tech or new policy??? Not sure yet.
