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.

I keep being able to do only one $2K order per day, when I try to submit a second order I get told to drop by 1 K. The system just cannot compute 2K + 2K < 5K. I'v only been able to do one order per day for almost a week now. Anyone else has the same issue?

We all have that issue, I think. I order from mine and my hubby's GC accounts every 2 days with one Yazing account. Just received an order from 8/9.

weird, I’m able to do two or three orders per GCcom account per two days as long as it totals $5k.

might be that during the glitch they screwed up your order. I checked mine and I hadn’t made an order on that Sunday. Just the Friday when everyone started freaking out, and on on Monday in a eff it let’s see if it works move.

They told me that there were issues on both 7/28 and 7/29 when I called for an update. They said these would be shipped out this week. We'll see...

I had GCM orders from the 29th. Never arrived and so i had called a couple days ago to report it. Refund just posted today, however I also just got a confirmation shipping email. Not sure if related to the GCC issue, but interesting that it's the same date.

Maybe the same name on the CC with the same shipping and billing address might be a clue ... This aint rocket surgery.
