Got an interesting email a few days ago about my Coles Reloadable Mastercard:

Dear drsmithy,

Thank you for purchasing a Coles Reloadable MasterCard.

Due to recent account activity, all of your Coles Reloadable MasterCards and any Coles Gift MasterCards linked to your card number ending in 1234 have been temporarily restricted or closed, or subject to increased monitoring until we receive some further information from you.

In order to have your card reinstated, you will need to provide us with the following documents:

A certified copy of your Australian drivers licence, Australian passport or proof of age card (with photo) issued by an Australian state or territory.

A certified copy of a recent statement (within the last 6 months) of the Australian bank account or debit card which you used to load funds onto your card. If this is not your account, you will also need to provide to us written confirmation from the account owner that they have authorised the funds to be credited to your card.

The documents will need to be certified by an Australian Justice of the Peace or Commissioner for Declarations, or an Australian legal practitioner.

Once certified, please return the documents to us at:

· Post to: PO Box 523, TOOWONG QLD 4066

If you do not return the documents to us within 10 days of the date of this letter, your cards will be closed.

We apologise for the inconvenience, however be assured that we take these measures to ensure the security of your funds.

Regards,

Coles Prepaid Cards Customer Support Centre

PO Box 523, Toowong QLD 4066
phone 1300 095 072
email [email protected] web colesprepaidcards.com.au

Interestingly, this arrived two weeks after the last activity on the card (ie: last load from a VPAY voucher).
Subsequently sent them a copy of my license and the receipt used to purchase the VPAYs and they have reinstated the card.
- Turd on 30/11/2016 - 09:41
  
  Did you have the documents certified by a JP? Did send in the information about the origin of the vpay purchases? ie original AMEX statements?
  - drsmithy on 30/11/2016 - 09:46
    
    Yes, I had the photocopies of my license and the HN receipt signed by a JP (we have several here at work so it's not inconvenient to do so).
    
    I didn't include the AMEX statements or give any indication how they were purchased. I did think about doing that to pre-empt any additional requests but ultimately decided "fcuk 'em, they have no reason to know".
    
    This is the letter I included:
    
    Dear Sir/Madam,
    Re: Coles Reloadable MasterCard account ending in 1234.
    Please find attached a JP-certified copy of my driver’s license.
    The Coles Prepaid Mastercard was loaded from VPAY gift cards (https://www.vpay.com.au/). I have included a JP-certified copy of the receipt from their original purchase.
    Please advise ASAP if you required more information, and why. If you decide to close the card, please advise how my funds will be returned.
    Regards,
    drsmithy

      Hmmmm lucky! I used 9 vpay cards i spoke to them on the phone and they said I need to provide proof of the vpay purcahse and if it's a gift card show the amex transactions. Ive blanked out all other info and already done this, probably about 30pages. Such a pain!! Going to a JP today.
      
      arghhhhhhh
    - drsmithy on 30/11/2016 - 09:59
      
      @Turd:
      
      Still have three registered AMEXes to take the HN and get VPAYs - just been too busy (and waiting for the store drones to forget about complaining about AMEXes), so we'll see if they ask again when I load up with those. Might just load and withdraw before they have the chance, if it takes a fortnight for them to notice !
    - Turd on 30/11/2016 - 10:00
      
      @drsmithy: Yeah same here I got another 5 to do! But Yeah PITA!!!
      
      For free money it's not bad I guess.
      
      Does the JP need to sign every single page? Even blank pages of credit card statements? poor JP!! LOL
    - drsmithy on 30/11/2016 - 10:28
      
      @Turd:
      
      Does the JP need to sign every single page? Even blank pages of credit card statements? poor JP!! LOL
      
      Don't know. I just had two sheets of paper. One with a photocopy of both sides of my license and one with a photocopy of the receipt. The JP signed both sheets.
      
      If you're sending them credit card statements, I'd say only include the first page (with the account details) and the specific pages that have the relevant transactions on them. Have the JP sign all pages. That's why I've done in the past whenever proof of purchase or similar has been asked for.

      Ahhh… $700 minus fees.. Not bad I guess!!
    - Turd on 02/12/2016 - 16:31
      
      @BellaWii: Think all HN do not sell vpay now. Pretty stupid IMO.
      
      I got my vpay long time ago, on the 1st day of this thread post before all this commotion. Gordon and Moore Park
    - BellaWii on 02/12/2016 - 17:02
      
      @Turd: Remember that Telstra ad "I've been everywhere man!" ?
      That's what I feel like. Went to HN Belrose to try my luck and they do sell VPay GC.
      The guy knew about the amex offer, did not comment on GC being excluded, was happy to serve me and when I questioned the bottom of the receipt where it states "Domayne AV/IT" he said it was ok and I would get the credit. Fingers crossed!

      @spk: ANZ doesn't show "pending transactions" like CBA so I'm still waiting for the transaction to appear.
- Neoika on 30/11/2016 - 18:25
  
  I have heard the negative stories about this card before.It is issued by Indue.
  
  To aviod trouble,
  I advise you only load one Vpay voucher($300) when you need cash and withdraw it as soon as possible(clear the balance).In addition,do it over the weekend.Don't think they will be that dutiful.When balance is zero,they will not bother to question you.
- JIMB0 on 01/12/2016 - 09:49
  
  I tried to take money out on mine and it got declined due to "exceeding your withdrawal frequency limit". I only ever made one withdrawal and that was about 2 weeks ago.
  - Neoika on 01/12/2016 - 10:57
    
    Isn't it $300 per day?
    - JIMB0 on 01/12/2016 - 13:38
      
      That may have been the problem as I was trying to take out more than that. On the screen the message was over limit, but on the receipt the message was frequency limit.
shopking1 on 30/11/2016 - 09:36

I have used the card since . So my current balance was about $500 before loading the last vpay voucher . I am wondering if Coles reloadable mastercard have stopped accepting vpay at a valid payment method . I just used the vpay voucher to pay for an electricity bill instead . I am just more interested to know the impact of using vpay and reloadable MasterCard for the future .
- yht on 30/11/2016 - 09:54

  I would recommend not to use vpay with reloadable MasterCard to avoid your card being blocked.
- illumination on 30/11/2016 - 11:36
  
  When did you try to use this 4th vpay voucher?

Why you guys still bother to buy gift cards or vpay at HN, save your money and shop somewhere else. I don't buy anything at HN even they agree to sell me the gift cards, they are so rude and seem don't need the customers, the HN gift cards can only use at HN, why don't they sell to their customers? No brain business.
- SydOzber on 01/12/2016 - 00:13
  
  +3
  
  agree
  but 33.33% via credit card is too good to resist.
  Also, you can stack up with other offers, or Price match any other competitor and can still claim TRS(if you fly overseas)
- [Deactivated] on 01/12/2016 - 10:20
  
  because they are franchises. if you use the gift card at a different location the store which sold the card loses out.
  - illumination on 01/12/2016 - 22:09
    
    Ah interesting.. do they really lose out though? I don't know the background/details at all but I'd imagine it wouldn't make sense to sell gift cards at all if the selling store actually loses out..
    - spacecowboy on 01/12/2016 - 23:08
      
      When you buy a HN gift card you become an unsecured credtor of HN (as in the Borders / Angus & Robertson/ Dick Smith gift card episodes). When you redeem the card HN can book the value as revenue against product(s) purchased. Until you redeem it, the value is classified as a liability. So technically the store that sold the gift card just processes your unsecured loan to HN. Unless you spend the gift card at their store there is no benefit to them, in terms of sales revenue.
    - JIMB0 on 02/12/2016 - 12:32
      
      @spacecowboy: Wouldn't they get a cut for putting it through, same as any other company selling gift cards (ie. RACV, Woolworths etc.)
      
      Also wouldn't the $100 credit be funded by head office since it is their promotion rather than the franchise.
      
      Only someone with inside knowledge of the franchise agreement would know, anything else is speculation.
    - spacecowboy on 03/12/2016 - 13:53
      
      @JIMB0: There is ~4% merchant fee the store is charged every time a customer pays with Amex
    - bauser99 on 03/12/2016 - 16:16
      
      +4
      
      @spacecowboy: No way HN would pay 4% merchant fees on AMEX - possibly the little corner store, HN would have negotiated a much lower fee with AMEX
    - spacecowboy on 03/12/2016 - 16:46
      
      @bauser99: Alot of retail businesses add Amex surcharge, or don't accept it all due to their high merchant fees.
      
      JB Hifi charges customers a 2.65% surcharge for Amex. HN would be on similar terms to JB I expect.
- spacecowboy on 01/12/2016 - 23:20
  
  We made $500 in this promo buying $300 Vpay vouchers at HN. Very happy to particpate in the deal. The easiest $500 we made all year on OZB. Okay some of the HN staff can be surly, but I was still happy with this deal.

    Gordon and Moore Park are refusing to sell GC and VPay with amex cards.

    The HN is inside the Domayne store and on the receipt it says "Domayne AV/IT" so there was doubt as to whether the credit would come through. But doubt no more.

      Did you contact them manually or it was auto?

      @Turd: Didn't contact Amex, credit came through automatically.

      Thank you for the info.Went there for only $2.5 fare today and got 4 vpay cards.The staff there did not question my purchase at all.I received AmEx confirmation emails right after purchase so that statement credits will definitely come through.
