This is the thread for 2018. The previous discussion can be found here.
Giftcards.com (and giftcardmall) now limit Visa loads to $250. No more $500 cards, Change happened sometime in 2020.
Check cash back portals to help cover the fees. Around the holidays there is usually free shipping. http://www.cashbackmonitor.com/cashback-store/giftcards.com/
Limit 5k/ every 48 hours (2 orders under 2.5k including the fees). However, system will reportedly "error out" if more than two orders are attempted within two days.
Cards must be activated before use. Orders usually arrive in 5-7 days.
Select the free letter on the left instead of paying for a card on the right of the screen to save money.
Warning: Orders can be lost or stolen. Call to have them reissued.

have amex hilton biz cc that still needs another $2k to hit the $15k total for a free nite; just placed an order for 5 vgc showing merchant as blackhawk networks on amex stmt … hope amex will count for a free nite award
any folks here happen to know if amex will send out email or msg that the acct met the spend for the award? if so, how soon? if amex won’t count only few days left by year’s end, i likely miss out the award; anyone has DPs that VGC purch at GC.com didn’t count by Amex? TIA
