    • Yola on 22/10/2022 - 11:10

      Someone has reported calling up to lock it. So, then there must also be a way to unlock it. This is the same as the precious version. Would be so much better if people could do it online and would surely limit their losses of having to refund fraudulent transactions.

            @a1234my: There was a way in the past.
            It was the Australia Post Load and Go Card
            It was good while it lasted. They dont offer the card anymore / discontinued.

            Managed to accumilate over 10k worth of profits from prepaid eftpos/ credit cards via various methods

            Those who knew about it never talked about it to avoid auspost closing the loophole.

            • samehada on 22/10/2022 - 15:46

              @easternculture: Auspost block the card once you have topup with eftpos card. You can only topup from Eftpos card not Visa/MC. They still owe me $2.

      you should have written complain about the staff with their name and store manager through online as well as on store. this is taking my nerve as some staff thinks they are giving us money for free and obliging to us by allowing us to buy… !

      i have all member of family standing one after anther without talking to each other … after i buy we all go out and then get back in together to do normal shop :D :D :D

      you go to the same store just don't go near the same employee … remember they don't sleep there so there is always shift and always nice staff on work.

      • fishandchips on 23/10/2022 - 18:04

        I agree with you, they have stop me buying more saying I have bought 5 before. I don’t want to argue I just ok and left to other store and got another 40 cards, 4 of us, we are going to buy the entire State where we can find the cards. If I can buy the bloody half price chocolates for the whole trolley why I am not allowed to buy the whole trolley of gift cards.

        • SydBoy on 23/10/2022 - 18:24

          terms & condition of the card is clear that they gives out 5 per person not 5 per family. so basically you can buy 5 per person of the family per day as long as there is supply… !

          the issue is individual staff related then Coles in my opinion… some staff are excellent while others are painful and they watch you like you are criminal .. lol.

    Coles Brisbane CBD still has some left, but it is enforcing one transaction per day per person limit no matter how many cards or what values you bought. They said that it is a federal law. Has anyone else heard of such law before? Could be just overzealous staff and duty manager.
    Does anyone know other brisbane stores that still have a lot of stock?

        They told me one time that it was against the law in Victoria to sell more than 3. I asked them what law and which section.

    Apologies if this is answered elsewhere - can anyone confirm if they've been able (or unable) to purchase a $250 Coles Mastercard Gift Card from a Shopback Super Swap Coles voucher at the self-serve checkout? Coles generally don't allow a gift card purchase from another gift card but I wasn't sure if there was a confirmed loophole. Thanks!

    • 3sky on 22/10/2022 - 17:24

      Was able to buy superswap and then change to Coles gc last night, 5 X $250.
      Used the Coles GC to purchase promo GC. But this morning am not able to load promo GC on to SB as a payment method, so that method not working for me now.
      Sorry, realise it wasn't your question… The red Coles GC does work to buy the promo GC

      • klean-out on 22/10/2022 - 17:33

        Thank you!
        So just to confirm, you chose the Coles GC not the Coles Groceries (I've never purchased a Coles GC on SB before)? And then you did 5 separate transactions through the self-serve checkout for the promo GC? I recall someone saying we can't split the payments. Hope that makes sense.

        • 3sky on 22/10/2022 - 18:25

          Not the grocery card. Not sure about buying individually at self service checkout. I bought 5 promo cards in one go at a staffed checkout, split payment because as you say, cannot do split payments at self serve

          • hoyanikon on 22/10/2022 - 18:33

            @3sky: Did the staff allow you to use gift card??? It's a digital card so you would need to select gift card as payment to scan the gift card in order to use it?

              @hoyanikon: Yes. Staff didn't have a problem. They weren't sure, but did allow and didn't have a problem when they saw it worked. I guess just a matter of getting staff to do their approvals 5 times at a self serve, or going to staffed checkout and them accepting split gift card payments.

                @3sky: Sometimes the staff tells you it won't work because that is what management has told them and are quite surprised when it does. On the other hand, you have the officious ones, usually older females that go out of their way to stop you.

                  BSed by saying it was from my "Coles account balance" lmao

    • klean-out on 23/10/2022 - 16:21

      I can confirm that you can buy a Coles Mastercard using a SB Super Swap Coles GC on the self-serve. The real challenge is locating any stock - I got the last $100 GC in my local store!

  • xieyuanwei on 22/10/2022 - 17:59

    Can this Coles MasterCard accept a refund from the merchant?

    I went to a Coles Express petrol station to purchase a $100 Coles Myer Group GC using a $100 Coles MasterCard. The transaction went through smoothly, but the store just couldn't activate the Coles Myer Group GC. They ended up doing a refund because the refund can only go back to the original card that was made for the purchase.

    When I log in to the online account to check the balance, I can only see the pending transaction for purchase but don't see the refund transaction. Any thoughts?

    • WookieMonster on 22/10/2022 - 18:16
      +2

      Yes.

      I've previously had an instore purchase refunded to a Coles Mastercard gift card. I had to wait 5 business days before the funds were credited to my card. The online portal never showed anything about a pending transaction.

        Thanks WookieMonster. I'll wait for 5 business days and see how it goes.

      • DoctorCalculon on 22/10/2022 - 23:09

        Refunds never show up as pending immediately either on the VISA or MC networks. Why would GCs be any different?

        Only on Revolut, do I sometimes receive a notification that a merchant has initiated a refund, and expect to wait another 3 - 5 business days for cleared funds.

        • WookieMonster on 22/10/2022 - 23:22

          If you have a refund being processed to an OnlyONE Visa gift card, it will actually say on the online balance check portal something along the lines of “there is a pending transaction that may affect the final balance”. (Well, that happened to me on the only occasion I had an instore refund processed onto an OnlyONE Visa gift card.)

          • ivyholmes on 23/10/2022 - 10:11

            @WookieMonster: Has anyone here experienced refund from prepaid visa/mastercard via Gpay/Apple Pay?

            I haven't received my refund yet. Altough it has already been 3 bussiness day, but I didn't receive any notification from Gpay (for example refund $xxx). I got in the receipt mentioned "refund visa prepaid approved". I'm quite regret that I didn't bring the actual card when I was there.

    How do you pay Water? At the post office? The online option takes you to bpoint page and the payment was rejected. Just saw telephone option so that might be how

    • 3sky on 23/10/2022 - 00:02

      Tried to pay for Water Corp bill online and by phone option (automated and operator) didn't work for me.
      If you have a barcode on your bill for Post Billpay you should be able to pay at the post office, apparently. If you have direct debit set up the bill will not have the bar code so AusPost can't process… A big hassle.
      So I've cancelled direct debit. Will see how the new bill will show up later, and maybe even try to pay the service charges for the rest of the financial year (around $911) up front.
      Do you have a barcode on your bill?

      • thriftee on 23/10/2022 - 00:09

        They could implement an optional 2 factor-authentication where buyers could enter their phone number on checkout. In this way, they could also put a restriction on numbers of cards per phone number.

        Buyers will have a choice, safer usage with 2 factors authentication or risk being hacked without entering phone number.

        • SydBoy on 23/10/2022 - 12:37

          To avoid complicated methods to restrict how many people can buy they should simply issue $500 or $1000 card that way you won't need much to pay bills..!

          Also on their website they should allow people to add their mobile number so everytime card is used text messages with code is sent out for verification before card can be used

      Hi @asc, could you share which number you called? I tried calling the number on the colesmastercardbalance website but none of the options seemed relevant.
