        i've use the same email address 5 times using the same prestige card. 4 other times with my partners email address using her own citi prestige card

    • nightelves on 18/08/2023 - 21:55

      You mean 9x10?

      • sequence21 on 19/08/2023 - 09:43

        Thats correct 9 x 10 gift cards.

  • Helmutson on 18/08/2023 - 21:56

    Just bought 4 to pay my rates. Came through straight away.
    Taking a while to apply the payments with Gold Coast City Council BPoint payment system though. Asking me to wait 5 minutes between each payment otherwise getting an error message. Still, saving over $67 + getting credit card points for ~20 minutes work. Not too bad.

    • [Deactivated] on 18/08/2023 - 22:43

      Yeah, I was thinking of doing it to get my council rates paid.

      It's a minor saving tho, like $100

      Last time, I had 5x fkybuy bonus so it was closer to 10% off

  • sizzly348 on 18/08/2023 - 22:09

    Tried both Commbank & Citibank cards, no luck. Transactions failed.

      Looks like my streak has come to an end. Have toggled between:

      VPN, browser, machine, mobile data, credit card, email, phone number and all returns a failed transaction.

  • ilovefullprice on 19/08/2023 - 00:57

    Noob question. Can these cards be added into Apple/Google Pay?

    • zenzen on 19/08/2023 - 09:24

      I purchased 9.12am today and received all cards in 2 mins. Paid by Citi CC.
      Tried to add Google Wallet but an error saying this card is not supported by Google Wallet.
      Will use them to buy SB supermarket GCs, Woolworth GCs, Prezzie and swap to all various gift cards, pay rates via PayPal / Post Billpay etc.
      Only the small petty amount (>$1.0) leftover is to purchase Amazon gift card to finish it off.

      • ilovefullprice on 19/08/2023 - 11:18

        Ok thanks

      • Neil2016 on 19/08/2023 - 11:39

        SB wouldn’t accept these cards. I tried to link them. It comes up with an error message saying ‘ for security reasons, you can’t link this card to this ShopBack account’

        • pyr0 on 19/08/2023 - 12:55

          Strange - I didn't have this problem.

          • mantra on 20/08/2023 - 10:01

            @pyr0: didn't have problem until 18th perhaps shopback changed something to reject these?
            tried again hour ago with no luck after full 24 hour break just in case i applied to many in the past week

            • wavesgreen on 20/08/2023 - 10:31

              @mantra: You're on cooldown. Haven't figured out the exact trigger but SB will put you on cooldown (should be 7 days) when you've done too much stuff* in a given timeframe.

              I triggered one SB account during the 2000 flybuys points promo last week at Coles, inceptioning gift cards. That account already had a lot of payment cards attached so I removed some during the inceptioning. That may have been the trigger.

              My other account I didn't do that with and it is still going strong.

              • mantra on 20/08/2023 - 10:51

                @wavesgreen: thank you, five cards attached to my account got this error at around 3 cards
                removed one and realized removing them would invalidate cashback so quickly reapplied and hope i still get cashback
                24 hours after the error it allowed me to add two more cards but adding more is getting rejected so best i wait 7 days

                thought maybe 5 card limit? hoping will work before 31st got two challenges left to complete

                • wavesgreen on 20/08/2023 - 10:59

                  @mantra: Nobody really knows the exact trigger limit(s), it's kinda BS. This is all just theoretical trying to figure out what SB has put in place.

                  It's also super frustrating when there are back-to-back promotions going on in the marketplace increasingly at the moment and it means you get locked out of participating. SB also gets less engagement so it's a lose result for them as well.

  • wwwboy on 19/08/2023 - 09:54

    I am traveling at the moment so dont have my rates account number with me. Is there anyway to find it out ?
    (for Brisbane).

    Damm it I have run out of things to prepay. Maybe will have to stock up on gift cards then.

    • Yola on 19/08/2023 - 10:07

      Can you log in to your Council and find it by entering your address?

      • wwwboy on 19/08/2023 - 11:25

        Thanks for the suggestion. I had never setup an online account will do that.
        But I found out they actually work on weekends via the call centre so called them up and found out the info :-)

        I guess means now I purchase some more cards later.

  • madmo on 19/08/2023 - 10:24

  • peacefulpeanut on 19/08/2023 - 13:02

    Thank you OP. Health fund premium sorted for next year. The transaction went smoothly with Chrome, cards received within 2 mins after the invoice.

  • clover on 19/08/2023 - 13:11

    Do we have a list of retailers, energy providers that do not accept this card? Or is there any general rule other than testing them?

      If you can pay using auspost billpay you can use these cards.

      But yes just trial and error

      • Yola on 19/08/2023 - 16:06

        I used Auspost billpay twice then third failed but it worked the next day. May need to do it gradually.

  • ivyholmes on 19/08/2023 - 13:38

    What's wrong, I'm trying to purchase 6x via combank, boq, and westpac all failed with the same name, email address like yesterday, any idea? I used incognito on my phone but it doesn't work

  • bird380 on 19/08/2023 - 14:39

    Amex, Nab creditcard Failed.
    Only Citi Mastercard successful.

  • sqheaven on 19/08/2023 - 15:09

    Bought 10 just now, it randomly worked for me. Bought 8 then 2.

    Tried 2 again and it failed.

    So here's my theory lol

    You can't buy more than 10 per 24 hours, this also confirmed by the support person. But it took maybe more than 24 hours for me, maybe 26 hours, I don't know.

    You need to call CommBank and tell that this is not a fraud transaction, you are buying these gc for groceries. They'll lift the ban. Might as well take some time to reflect on your card.

    Enjoy.. 😂

    I wasn't going to pay a bill, needed to buy lenses and speakers.

    • Poor Ass on 19/08/2023 - 15:25

      Theory fail

      Can reject even for people who never bought before or even buying 1

      It's some random bs

      • ivyholmes on 19/08/2023 - 15:27

        true, i use mobile internet from my husband to purchase for the first purchase, it didn't go through. yesterday went smoothly under my name. today nothing works

    • Yola on 19/08/2023 - 16:10

      I purchased 5 x 10 on the first day. 6th failed but worked the next day plus one more. On the third day purchased 5 x 10 again. Today just one but not tried anymore. All on AMEX. My theory would be you can buy 5 x 10 per day.

  • captbollocks on 19/08/2023 - 15:27

    Just split my rego quarterly so I can pay full amount with VicRoads and tried to pay with sniip but they "the biller doesn't accept this payment method" ☹️

    • truetypezk on 19/08/2023 - 15:43

      Why dont u just pay on Vicroads website?

      • Supermari78 on 19/08/2023 - 22:54

        Do they allow online split payment at all？

        • captbollocks on 20/08/2023 - 01:01
          +1

          Nah it says they don't accept split payment, but splitting the bill in quarterly payments means it's now less than $250.

          • truetypezk on 20/08/2023 - 16:06

            @captbollocks: You will need to pay the card payment fee anyway. If you dont have HCC/PCC there is an extra charge fot quarterly bill too. Just do it on the website if you are willing to bear that surcharge.

        • truetypezk on 20/08/2023 - 16:05

          No, the only way to split pay for Vicroads is to pop into one of their service centre, join the dauting queue and annoy the guy behind the window. Hate it but I still do that every year:)

      • captbollocks on 20/08/2023 - 00:59

        Cool - it works if I forgo bPay. Just needed to pay a $1.20 card transaction fee per quarterly payment but I still come out on top!

  • mengy on 19/08/2023 - 17:08

    bought about 10 - 15 cards each day. Worked fine with AMEX every time.

    just tried to order some more and it's saying "Transaction failed, please contact customer service."

    Unlike the Amazon saga, it didnt take my money this time.

    Looks like the run has come to the end for me ;(

    • Untalentedllama on 19/08/2023 - 17:31

      Just tried Amex and also an hour ago and got the same, Amex customer support says there's no issues on their end so more than likely a giftcards thing. Bummer

      • Yola on 19/08/2023 - 18:16

        Definitely giftcards issue. Just purchased my third lot of 10 for the day with AMEX. It's so weird how it works for some people and not others.

      based on recent history, you may see this deal once every quarter followed by sale of physical cards at Coles (which usually doesn't have great availability).
      Who knows for how long will Coles take loss on this. But based on past data, I usually buy to pay bills upto 2-3 months in advance as this deal or instore usually happens every qtr.

      • [Deactivated] on 19/08/2023 - 23:54

        In-store is better, my flybuys always has 5x or 10x bonus pts and it stacked.

        At least people can abuse the system to get more, but if history is anything to go by, they'll probably close that loophole the next time because unfortunately people abuse things and then they notice and they close it.

        So I got true 10% off, that's why I'm not really jumping at tho…even tho still solid.

        • neezy on 20/08/2023 - 00:02
