How does one get banned from cashback portals, if you don't mind?

I wasn't specific. I've been banned from giftcard mall. Not the actual Portals.

Gc.com banned too? Gcm still won't send me VGC, had to do a Chargeback after being charged and not getting a shipment for a month

Gcm is notoriously random. GC.com should be much better.

Which card gives you 3%? I've beening MSing SPG recently, trying to get as many points as I could before August. I'm considering the value of SPG to be around 2.5 cpp.

Discover it miles is 3% before portals. I think it's hugely under rated.

Is Discover sensitive to MS activities? Half of the 3% would be honored a year later, right?

No and yes. Cycling twice a week for months now. Half is due 12 mos after acct opening. Then churn the card.
