    • Darn. I waited as long as I could to buy some software but this comes a week late for me. Thanks for the heads up though, I may have a thing or two left to buy with the Amex 20% back.

  • DP: Hit the limit of ?? after multiple orders of gift cards earlier this year with various Xbox gift cards using them because of the 3-4 AMEX biz plats.... (Dell phone reps don't know what the limit is or don't care to look...)

    Solution: Use AU card linked to Biz plat you want to use (can be a green card -- no fee, credit is applied even when using AU card per T&Cs as long as it doesn't exceed the bi-annual limits, doesn't matter if the original or AU card is used), new dell account, and ensure all ordering details match AU account -- changed address/phone on primary card via amex login of primary account, and also changed address/phone on secondary AU login via AMEX just in case, AND ordered from an different IP.

    Essentially all new information -- that bypassed the instant cancellation issue on my usual account and I saw my order as confirmed.

    Article which made me think everything should change:

  • TCB has been having issues tracking dell purchases. mine has been "waiting for merchant" to verify for several weeks for a recent purchase.

  • Y'all waiting for black friday / cyber monday to use the $200 credit (cash back probably wouldn't be boosted) or like on these boosts?

      • Oh wow, guess I'm waiting then. What do you usually buy that isn't too much more than $200? I don't have need for an actual tablet/laptop/desktop lol.

        • I was going to say xbox gift cards, but it looks like other people on this thread are having issues with that. Its my first year of the amex credit too

          • I bought them before... ended up giving one away lmao. I don't play xbox... not worth trying to sell it either with all the fees and discount you'd have to list it for to get buyers.

    • Was able to get some thru this go around, it was on a new card and not one of my existing ones so don’t know if that made a difference. In May-June it took many tries to get some of my orders thru.

  • Every third order for an Xbox giftcard seems to go through without order getting 'canceled'...Dell website is shite.

    • no go here with $100 xbox GC + GAME10 code. just tried 3 orders. all 3 cancelled. i didn't change a thing.
      frustrating considering the biz plats i have..
