  • used a physical Citibank card with pin and no issues over several days.
    Haven’t been keen to try payWave due to reported issues.

  • Bought 5 today and 5 yesterday. Just tried to pay for some bills including councils and ATO and all declined. The vanilla website does not load either to check the balance. What’s going on???

    • Balance check worked 3 hrs ago.

    • Yep. Can't do anything right now. After 3 mins of attempting the balance website, I refreshed my token session and got in and money is still there so wait to see tomorrow morning on what's up.

      Nevermind website is down now

    • same issue. Bought 10 of 100 today from 2 different stores. One set with expiry of 07/27 worked fine, but one's with 06/26 keep failing and the website isn't working either to check balance.

      • Both the cards and website are working now

      • Same issues, I've been trying to get shopback gc eBay promotion, the payment suddenly asking for visa verification. Previously it was working fine without verification

    • My council worked fine. Used post billpay

  • Deft and postbillpay working so far.

    • I did 5 consecutive transactions through my DEFT account but the last didn't go through and now I can't log into my account lol.

      However can still make payments without being logged in, so I'm not bothered.

      No issues with postbillpay.

      • Do it on the phone, i made a lot with nno issues

  • Anyone notice if their local coles restock today?

    • my local stores have been restocking every 1-2 days
      it has been a good run. Hope to get a few more tomorrow

    • I had to resort to grabbing $100 cards today.

  • So easy to find these cards compared to last couple of years . Finally they bring out more stock for everyone to access, instead of running around trying to get a hold of it. Hopefully they do this all the time.

    • Maybe it’s bcos this time this deal is only available in 2 states?

  • my wife had an issue using these cards at mecca, anyone else experience the same?

  • Did anyone get rinse and repeat working?

    • Yes I did

      • self-service one at a time?

    • Somewhat

  • Anyone try paying for these with coles myer gift cards

    • didn't do it myself, but saw someone buying a few CM GCs with these.

      • Can confirm coles myer gc works to buy these

        Just tried on a $250

        • What payment method?

          • @Sheng: Gift card, scan gift card, enter pin, success

            • @easternculture: Interesting. Thought you would have opted for card and swiped + pin. How do you do scan giftcards like product? Flybuys? or heavy item scanner? I got some looks when the flybuys scanner beeps lol.

              • @Sheng: I used the normal scanner you use for food items. The attendent was standing next to me, i politely said you are too close to me and asked for my personal space

    With this promo coming to an end, was certainly very interesting what I saw @ bondi junction Coles.. the store manager were processing a lot of $250 gift cards to some female customers over 50 years old who took them out of their purses. When I asked him where they got it from, he said he didn't know but if I had some, he would process them for me. He was processing these at a checkout that was closed towards the freezer isle. There were around 4 of them, all with bags of cards.. over 30 each.

    • Were they cash transactions?

      • The lady who was buying at the time was paying with a card. Don't know about the others behind her. They also had a bunch of Coles Myer cards too, not sure if he was then processing vanilla to CM or CM buying vanilla or if its unrelated.
        Either way, found it interesting that some stores, the staff members do not care at all while others are worse than the soup nazi.

    • I saw an old asian couple who had a ledger book with names of people , store numbers and a highlighter. They had teams of people buying cards. They were at the customer service desk using these cards to put onto opal cards. Then I suspect they call opal and ask for refunds lol

    • It’s definitely happening at few stores. They have stack of 250s and a stack of flybuys or stack of flybuys loaded on their phone. To me it appears some staff have worked out a potential profit sharing deal. One of staff I spoke to was inquisitive about how people are making money out of this and was willing to offer as many cards as I wanted albeit $100’s. I politely said No.

    • I was at bondi junction coles yesterday night and was told by the staff at the service desk that they stop selling gc because they sold a lot for the day. I really find that excuse really weird.

    • saw this at the Eastgate Bondi earlier in the day although the scanning was done by a young lad who must have been wondering what he had done to deserve being sent to the end register just to process gift cards for very old non-English speakers. I doubt that any of those buyers would have understood if he had shown them the mandatory scam alert flyer. I also saw that as soon as someone had bought their cards, they went to the queue (of around 6 at that time) to do it all over again.

      Goodness knows what kind of money laundering was going on there.

    • Legend. Expensive late night run - Bought 250X20. The store was pushing me to buy more lol.
      They had 2 boxes left inside on top of what was on GC shelve.

      • Haha . Good one

        Ill bill you my fee via pm 🤣🤣🤣

        On a serious note, happy someone saved money last minute on these.

  • Late nite shopping lol

      Nah. Went for a last round and try my luck at local store as i was not anywhere near the wealthy suburbs today and found a few $500 coles myer gift cards at home. So exchanged them for some $250s

  • If virgin money was not holding on to my money 32 days I would have access to it and be buying more gift cards.

  • Does anyone know if the discount applied even if there are 3 flybuy cards linked to the one account? As in would each card have received the discount when used at time of purchase but all three cards are linked to one account?

    • +1

      All cards under the same Flybuys account share the same limit.

      T&C's specify:

      Limit of 5 Gift Cards per Flybuys account per day
