I know it's common practice to keep cards close to the chest around these parts but do you mind giving a broad hint as to what those methods would be that don't involve a GC? My only other thought would be things such as reselling or buying commodities and hoping the price doesn't change before you liquidate.

I would love to branch out to other avenues but haven't uncovered them just yet.

TCB mailed me Amex as my payout do they process this quickly?

I'm a data point. After being banned for months, I'm back in action at GCM. No phone calls or emails. Just tried again and it went through.

What are you go-to GCM credit cards? Do you max the CL regularly or moderate it by using several different cards?

Several cards, no more than 50-60% CL of each.

Just received my 3/20 order before my 3/16 order. Both are the same exact card types. GCM is definitely a strange bunch.

I got you beat. The cards I ordered on 3/8 just arrived today. I called on them last week and they told me it could take up to 15 business days to arrive which would be the 29th by her calculation. They came a day early. I thought it was horseshit... but they came. Were even stamped March 8th. I don't get it.

Now if I can just get unbanned...

I am not as patient as you are, my order from the 6th (shipped on the 8th) has yet to arrive: I called them a few days ago and had them reissue the cards.
Now it would be real comedy if my voided cards arrived between now and when the reshipment comes along.:rolleyes:

I called to do just that and they told me that I had to wait until the 29th!

Update:

The payment for my purchase at GCM through TCB on January 15, 2017 has been confirmed but is not payable. I have stopped using TCB because of multiple issues I'm experiencing with them. Not tracked purchase and not paying on time.

The email I've received this morning from TCB:

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.

The cashback statuses are only changed when we receive an update from the affiliate network that the funds have been received once they have received the funds from the retailer so this is why we can never give any definite dates as we are reliant on each individual network and retailer's payment speeds. Any change in status to a transaction comes from the network side.

We can only ever pass the cashback to you once it's been received from the retailer and at the moment this amount hasn't been given and is still confirmed at the network side. As it is confirm though we should see it received within the next few weeks but we don't have a definite date for this at the moment.

Many thanks,
Amber

How many more weeks to wait? It's been 11 weeks....

I got AGC from TCB in about 8-10 days.

Hey looking at the GC.com & GCM VGC's images, does anyone know if there is a difference? I believe for both of them, they will print your name on the card, but GCM seems to have a "Enjoy $100" wording on the card, is that true? Does GC.com cards have the same thing? Is there a way to remove that wording?
