    Just purchased 5, 240 minute delay before card activates. This kills the loophole.

    They didn't have this delay 4 days ago.

    • hippyhippy on 15/06/2022 - 07:18

      What loophole are you referring to?

      • Xishnik on 15/06/2022 - 07:33

        Using the card to buy another card, rinse and repeat until they are out of cards.

    What is the correct url to check balance?

    When I went to the address written on the card itself, chrome gave an error so I didn't proceed with it.

        Side note, but the site sucks butt on phone for me. The captcha is all glitched out.

  • USER DC on 15/06/2022 - 06:50

    Just got 3 secured for myself now,

    They apparently also now dont allow back to back transactions on gift card,
    so if i wanted to pay for 1 GC with 1 card, and other 1 with another card, I must go to manned checkouts and pay in 1 transaction.

    • MrrMagic on 15/06/2022 - 06:51

      I just purchased 5 using one GC and one credit card. This was at the service desk

      • USER DC on 15/06/2022 - 06:52

        You really need a junior dummy/one who doesnt give a dam to be paying with GC,

        I had to pay with Zip, and CC

  • Xishnik on 15/06/2022 - 07:11

    How do you know that the cards are ready to use? Is it literally 4 hours after the time shown on receipt?

  • hemant on 15/06/2022 - 07:20

    Is there a way to stack these cards back together to purchase one costly item online such as MacBook?

    • daanish on 15/06/2022 - 08:19

      Depends where you're buying it. You could potentially use the MasterCards to buy gift cards for that retailer if they have unlimited gift card redemption on their website.

      It could be a lot of messing around for the discount (especially if you have to go into a store to buy the GCs then go home and buy online) but that's basically the unofficial OzB motto.

  • Xishnik on 15/06/2022 - 07:24

    I am getting an error every time I try to login to check balance. Anyone able to login yet?

    Just got 10 cards from my local Coles. Staff didn't really know what the promo was and I was the only OzBargainer there at 07:00.

    My Hiver card was rejected when trying to pay for 5 cards in one go ($1156.50) using insert and PIN but went through perfectly fine for 4 cards ($925.20). I was able to repeat a second transaction of 4 cards and then again for 2 more so it seems there's a $1000 per individual transaction cap being applied by Hiver despite me asking them about this yesterday and being told that if you insert+PIN as long as funds are available there is no limit.

    You also can't tap and pay more than $500 per day with Hiver so take the actual card with you.

    As an aside the register operator commented "how do you have so much money?" and was very surprised I was able to spend $2313.00 just like that. It was good natured and the kind of comment I definitely would have made to my colleagues when I was a uni student. She just said it a little louder than she'd hoped and then looked mortified when I heard her. I just laughed and let her know it was ok.

    • jimwh on 15/06/2022 - 07:57

      Did you ask them to change the daily limit to $2000?

      • daanish on 15/06/2022 - 08:08

        I messaged them yesterday and told them I'd like to make a $2000 purchase tomorrow and was told that as long as I insert+PIN it will work if there are funds available.

        Obviously this was not the case. I will chat them again today and see what they say.

        • DoctorCalculon on 15/06/2022 - 08:43

          I got blocked after my first purchase of $925.20.
          I was using my physical card.

          SAV, VISA … nothing worked. Kept saying daily limit exceeded for the second round.

          • daanish on 15/06/2022 - 08:59

            @DoctorCalculon: Hmm - maybe they did flip some switch when I got on chat yesterday to turn off my limit but just didn't tell me that happened.

          • HereToSave on 15/06/2022 - 09:05

            @DoctorCalculon: That’s odd. I’ll find out later today I guess.

  • stuarty9 on 15/06/2022 - 07:38

    Can you use multiple cards at once?
    Ie I want to purchase a $600 item at Bunnings, could I use 3x $250 in the one transaction? And what would happen to the remaining $150? I assume that just remains on that card?
    Thanks

    • KeplersLaws on 15/06/2022 - 07:45

      If the retailer accepts split payment method then I’d assume yes.

      I’ve used cash and card in tandem before so I don’t see why multiple of the latter should be an issue, especially at Bunnings. You always have better chances if you don’t make any mention of the fact that it is a gift card

    • Yola on 15/06/2022 - 17:07

      You could purchase Bunnings GC on Shopback and get another discount.

      Rinse and repeat may not work this time (I could be wrong though). I just tried using the Vanilla Visa GC issue by the same bank as the new Coles MasterCard GC to pay for it but it didn't work. Has anyone had any luck paying using the Vanilla GCs?

      • lilkid28 on 15/06/2022 - 09:28

        You used Vanilla GC bought previously or the newly bought Coles MC (within 4h) in this deal to buy another Coles MC?

          I tried to pay for the Coles MC today using the Vanilla GC bought previously and it didn't work, I am assuming because both cards have the same issuer now.

    I was at Coles near me a little after 8am. 100% cleaned out. Only the $50 ones remained, which are not on sale. I went to buy other things, but thought about buying one if they had any left. It's a good deal, but I'd want to spend the $ asap after activation. The security risks mentioned above were a bit worrisome. Maybe they put out more at a later time, but that's just a luck thing if you happen to be there and buy them.

        • peter05 on 15/06/2022 - 09:29

          its still stealing, i am sure if you asked a team member if you could remove them from the store until the next day it would be a solid no

          • dylanando on 15/06/2022 - 09:49

            @peter05: For sure, they just pocketing them. I believe they pulled a lot off show yesterday to prevent it.

            That store got just under a million in these gift cards.

    Plenty in my local, probably helps it's a poor area of Brisbane and most people would be oblivious to it. I did however have issues trying to spend over $1k in one transaction, new credit card (replacement since last one got done by scammers) didn't have a PIN set up so wouldn't work, westpac wouldn't let me spend more than $1k in a day and I can't change it in the app (long story). Ended up getting the assistant to take two cards off and buy 3 in one transaction with my westpac card, then remember my ANZ card number and add it to Apple Pay to buy the additional 2 cards. What a mess, think the assistant was getting annoyed with me.

    Managed to get 5x $250 this morning as well. I think some Coles stores are removing them from the gift card stand and holding it at the front register so to ration and release them throughout the day so it doesn't get sold out so quickly.

  • TrungTotti on 15/06/2022 - 10:14

    I asked them if i can buy this $250 gc with Coles gift card or not, she said maybe, then i swap 3 x $100 from Shopback super swap card to Coles gc to try and then another one from Coles come out and said no, you can not buy gift card with coles gift card :)

    My local Coles had around 10x$250 left when i came in around 8am
