Hat tip to GC Galore
Was able to use their giftcards bought earlier to get this. Thanks!
Any idea on the limits on how many you can buy?
Is it generally safe to hold on to these? I would like to redeem on a monthly schedule. Never used this site.
Does anyone know if $2000 monthly cashback limit enforced? Is it per portal, or giftcards.com somehow combines purchases across multiple portals?
Do they work now?
Yes
I am still having issues..
Was able to redeem all the ones I purchased yesterday.
Does anyone know if you can get cash back through a portal and get giftcards.com rewards?
My order did track through AA shopping portal, but too soon to know if LP or miles will post.
Is there no fee to transfer this to a 529?
Nope. Only fee is when purchasing (and waived for this).
Would funding a 529 through these still be eligible for a state deduction in NJ?
Yes
can pay with PayPal to for 5x on freedom cards
I am unable to redeem cards. There was a issue redeeming your gift card, please try again. Am I doing something wrong?
Same.
Are you trying to redeem on the GofC website?
yes. where else would you redeem it?
yes, redeeming goc under profile.. redeem GC.
I emailed the Giftcards.com customer support, hopefully it gets resolved quickly. paid through PayPal so that should provide a back up way to contest it.
I still haven’t received the email with my gift card number from gift cards.com. How long does it take?
around 4 hrs
Definitely took some time, but finally there.
mine was instant, but didn’t work.
Mine are all able to be redeemed this morning so maybe there is just some lag time. All are safely in my 529 account!
Same here
Same here; Hopefully just a matter of propagating the data through the system, although the ones I get in-store are redeemable right away.
I’m also unable to redeem my cards on the giftofcollege.com website. Did anyone resolve the problem?
You can use these toward most federal and private student loans too. Good way to get a couple percent back on these.
