Let's look at the chain of posts ...

I complained about gcm not letting order go through with a certain cc

I then stated that I thought I had a work a round with using a different cc

I stated that there was success with this new cc with submitting the order.

I then posted a follow up saying I spoke to soon as I just received a cancelation email.


In case that wasn't clear enough for you, I received an order canceled email from gcm.

So I still have two accounts working well, but one login for gcm seems to be restricted. I figured there wasn't anything to lose at this point and called the number in the wiki. The same disclaimer we use for Citi reps probably applies here as well ... they claimed that they through the problem was that I used 500 denomination. She claimed that in the past the 500s were sent through their sister site gift cards.com (they are both owned by Blackhawk ) but now 500s have to be ordered through gift cards.com. Of course I didn't say this to her but that isn't true ... both my other accounts work fine for personalized 500s.

I think I got my cashback today from the May problems. I got an extra notification email this morning, and my pending cash has the disputed amount pending. It also was at 2% which is what I submitted the claim for.

My "transaction was not completed" notices stopped on their own using the same credit card. It's not a permanent ban, but it may take a few weeks to go away.

Mine from 5/16 also just tracked, at 2%.

Same with mine from 5/22. Submitted cash back claim for 2%

Same here. Even got the full amount, incl shipping @ 2% ^

I use TCB - GCM - MO to bank and make money MSing right now as i'm sure many here are. I've pretty well tapped out most sign up bonuses, and i plan to do the full 15k per month on a card that brings the most value. Right now i've targetted my SPG Business card, does anyone know of a card with a better ROI than this one right now?

Did you guys ever had the option to select 2% when you opened your claims? Mine says 1% (still waiting for merchant).

Mine from the 22nd of May tracked as well, for 2%.

Although it doesn't apply here specifically, I also had 8 claims against CG.com and they all went to payable immediately.

5/23 order finally tracks today. 2% was automatically added to my claim.

My claim (when I filed it a month ago) also gave me no choice, it had 1% pre filled. They gave me that within a week of filling out the claim. I'm not sure where the others are saying they filed a claim and were able to manually request 2%.

When I put in the claim, I selected non Visa gift card which was supposed to be 2%.

So far I got the 2% credited as confirmed along with the original 1% one as well...Maybe I could go from 1% all the way to 3%! not counting on it though.

I was given the option of choosing whether I had purchased "Visa Gift Card" or "other purchase" or whatever the 2 categorizations are. Of course, the former gives 1% and the latter gives 2%. Since they were customers, I chose the latter.

Quick question, I am moving at the end of the month... Thus, new town, new internet connection hence new ip address.. I would have to update my billing address in GCM.

I assume I have to start over and start slow again (e.g. $500/order instead of my usual $2500/order) and work my way up?

I chose the one that should give 1%(other purchase), but they appear to have given me 2%. I'll take it.

Edit: I meant I chose VGC which should have earned 1%
