Did you order different types of cards, or what (did you do differently)?

they've all been visa but I try different cards each time. In the last 2 months there have been 3 orders where I've only been credited 1%. Is it the card type or does the site randomly go to 1%?

I've never had an order go 1%, though I don't try different cards. Why try fixing something that ain't 2% broke?

"Error saving data. Please try again"

I get this when I get to the screen of the welcome card selection ( i always type something like person order, card used, date of order) but when I click add to cart I get that message.

I'm getting g the same message tonight. Tried different browsers.

Something confused me.

I had an order on 04/23/17 that didn't track on TCB. The click-through history is there, but when I tried to submit a claim, the latest timestamp was 04/11/17 (my previous order).

Anyone knows why?

Hmm, a 1k ordered from 4/25 tracked at 1% ugh.

~40 orders from Jan until now have all tracked at 2%. Remains to be seen if this is a trend. Submitted new order this am so will see.

Well, that would be a bummer, figured it would happen sooner or later. Let us know what the next tracking amount is.

Further bad news. 2 more transactions tracked at 1%.

4/25 1k
4/26 4k

Different user ids. The only potential difference is used google chrome (which I had used in the past but with the recent inability to click the order link I had switched to IE for awhile). I can't believe that that makes a difference.

4/02 = 2%
4/26 = 1% - crappers

Lappie Apr 27, 2017 8:55 am

Mine on 4/25 posted as 1% as well.

Damn there goes that easy money maker :/

Even at 1%, its not a terrible deal since it largely eats up the fee (and no shipping cost, which is good). But sure was nice to be making money off each card.

So, I previously reported that I got banned. I randomly decided to try again, and it worked! I don't quite understand why, because I tried multiple cards and it didn't work. I waited about three days and tried again.

Anyway, that's how I also discovered that everything's tracking at 1% now. Oh well, better than nothing.

The deal has been phenomenal the last year or so at 2%. Mailed to my box, pre-activated, can emboss my name on them (which has bailed me out on 2 occasions) and doesn't have "gift" very large which can be sharpied out. It's been mostly like clockwork and I'm not even a large MSer. 1% is still good as my costs are usually in the 1.3% range all in.
