    Bought $500 on the variable card the last offer and had issues where card was invalid. Got refunded after back and forth with Coles and Apple support. Was told that problems occurs more often on the higher value cards.

    • Jstrrrr on 28/12/2023 - 18:30

      Lucky you kept the receipt. Did you drill down to the crux of the problem? Not properly activated at check out?

    • vihand on 28/12/2023 - 22:20

      Last time I bought and redeemed them in front of their counter.

      • Jstrrrr on 30/12/2023 - 15:30

        I don't imagine this to be a widespread problem, if the sales receipt show all cards have been activated upon purchase. Good to be cautious if you can. But not everyone can redeem to account straight away. I am stashing for hardware purchase later myself.

    • WindDrifter on 08/01/2024 - 12:18

      I bought 5x $500 and used them last night no problem. Even better I used them on an Edu Store Discount on MacBook Pro M3 and they gave me a Apple Voucher of $240.

      So in the end Retail Price was $2999. Edustore price was $2799 got 9.2% from 20x Flybuys + 1.3% Cashrewards = 10.5% so that’s worth $293. Then add $240 voucher. Thats $740 discount! Which is 25% off retail and 19% off Edustore!

      • Mentallysick on 08/01/2024 - 17:12

        what is edustore and do i need membership?

        • BargainGain on 08/01/2024 - 21:58

          It’s the education store. You need a email address from an Australian educational institution, like school, tafe or uni.

          • impoze on 08/01/2024 - 22:30

            @BargainGain: No need for Edu email, I checked out using normal email and no ID checks.

    Bought $500 variable load last time at Coles, no issues with the points at all. Points got into my account after 1 day.

    Anyways, are 30x points deals basically gone for good now? have not seen it for a year at least

    • Jstrrrr on 30/12/2023 - 15:30

      x20 seems to be the standard. Who knows when x20 would disappear too. Get them while you can (if needed), I say.

    Can I buy AppleCare with Apple gift card?

    • FlipperMeTimbers on 29/12/2023 - 08:28
      +1

      pretty sure the answer is no but it might work if you have a single giftcard (not redeemed in your account) and pay for apple care at the apple store

    • TechNerd on 29/12/2023 - 08:41
      +4

      Yes you can, but you need to take the gift card into a store (don’t redeem it into your account)

      I’ve done this previously in store with no issues

      • rpb on 03/01/2024 - 23:11

        Technerd is correct I did that twice recently

  • PAFC1870 on 29/12/2023 - 16:07

    Awesome timing, thanks op. Need to purchase a new Macbook for my son for year 10. Will stock up with giftcards & buy during the Apple back to school promotion.

  • auscooler on 01/01/2024 - 19:32

    can I buy an iphone from apple store using this card and claim TRS?

    • stirlo on 02/01/2024 - 16:56

      Yes. The receipt will show card payment with no mention of gift cards.

    • nxjr on 06/01/2024 - 09:36

      Yep do it all the time

      • shonofear on 06/01/2024 - 14:05

        do you guys normally declare when coming back into the country?
        will be away for 3 months, so will declare but pretty sure they will wave me thru.

        • nxjr on 08/01/2024 - 08:33

          You should.

  • auscooler on 01/01/2024 - 19:35

    can I use multiple of this card to buy an iphone from apple store?

    • findthatbargain on 02/01/2024 - 13:00

      I think you can use up to 8 gift cards

    • impoze on 05/01/2024 - 08:30

      Load into your account balance first, only limit of 8 if redeeming cards at checkout

  • Beston on 03/01/2024 - 12:08

    Do i need to activate this in Flybuys app in order to use it? But this offer doesn't seem to appear in Flybuys app or any poster in store at the moment.

    • vihand on 03/01/2024 - 12:21

      I can see it on the online catalogue.

    • Any thing on 04/01/2024 - 15:25

      They have it advertised in store at my local Coles

    Coles broadway just removed all their Apple Card’s. big glitch in the system. Half of all cards are getting declined. I was affected. Half my cards were refunded. Is anyone else facing this issue?
    Will this affect our 20x FB points ?
    I’m stressing now….

    • ozchobie on 05/01/2024 - 19:02

      Best way is to call flybuys hotline

  • ozchobie on 05/01/2024 - 16:46

    If loaded on Apple account..

    Can you use Apple gift cards at AOC?

    How about the Apple refurb store?

    • impoze on 05/01/2024 - 18:44

      Yes

      • ozchobie on 05/01/2024 - 19:02

        Cheers. Yes on both?

        • impoze on 05/01/2024 - 19:31

          Yes, just load to your account balance

    • WindDrifter on 08/01/2024 - 12:21

      I just used 5 last night at checkout on AOC store.

  • impoze on 05/01/2024 - 18:45

    How long do the points take to show up?

    Much prefer woolies system that tells you on the spot

    • impoze on 06/01/2024 - 17:01

      Received points

      Approx 24 hours to show up in account

  • letslightafire on 07/01/2024 - 18:18

    It says "you must present your Flybuys card at the time of purchase" - can we use the digital card on the flybuys app to get the x20 points? I have a new membership so my physical card hasn't arrived yet.

    • impoze on 07/01/2024 - 20:58
      +1

      Yes i use digital card

      Only need physical to redeem flybys dollars

      • letslightafire on 08/01/2024 - 16:37

        thanks!

        I bought 1 x $500 gift card last night at Coles. I was going to buy more but the supervisor could not confirm that the $500 cards will get the x20 points. He suggested I called flybuys. I called flybuys this morning and they weren't 100% sure either but said that if it doesn't say on the offer that the $500 cards are not accepted, 'it is probably ok'. Well that's not 100% … The purchase from last night isnt showing on my card - still too early I guess.

        Has anyone bought the $500 Apple GC and got the x20 points for this particular deal?

        It ends tomorrow.

        Also, has anyone bought a MacBook Pro entirely with these giftcards? I assume I load my Apple ID and then just use the entire balance.

        If all ok I will get more today and tomorrow.

        Thanks!

        PS: Are these gift cards ever available online to be purchased via Shopback or Cashrewards? I note the ongoing Cashrewards / Shopback deals 1.2 or 1.3% are not available for MacBook pros

        • sinizter on 08/01/2024 - 19:08

          You can buy Apple gift card through ShopBack etc. but at significantly lower discounts.

          Also available through AGL/RACV/NRMA and various other portals at varying levels of discount.

  • Flintz on 08/01/2024 - 14:51

    is this promotion inclusive of tomorrow or ends today? I.e. buying apple gift cards tomorrow still give me 20x points

    • impoze on 08/01/2024 - 14:53

      it will be until tuesday midnight.

      catalogue cycles start on Wednesday.

      If you miss this one, Woolworths 20x on Apple GC will be starting this week

      • Flintz on 08/01/2024 - 15:03

        gotcha thanks

  • sinizter on 08/01/2024 - 19:07

    Bought 5x $200.

    Only two activated. I noticed as I picked up the receipt, so went to service desk and after a lot of phone calls and back and forth with their team, they refunded me $600.

    They are also in the process of taking down all Apple gift cards from their rack.

    This was about fifteen minutes ago.

    • jupy on 08/01/2024 - 19:27

      worrying as i was going to go tomorrow to pick some up - did they mention if your flybuys credits will stick even with the refund? im assuming not, but thought i'd ask

      • sinizter on 08/01/2024 - 19:55

        I didn't ask.

        But given that it was an independent refund receipt, I may even receive the whole amount of Flybuys. (or none).

        I am thankful that the refund was immediately processed, and I can live without the Flybuys points to prevent additional personal hassle.

  • letslightafire on 08/01/2024 - 20:20

    UPDATE:

    I bought a $500 Apple GC and $18.90 of other stuff last night at Coles and 10,018 points have just been credited to my account now.

    Questions:
    1) If I buy multiple GCs is there any advantage / disadvantage to buying them all on one receipt or separate receipts?
    2) Can Applecare+ be purchased with giftcards?

    Thanks!

    • HamBoi69 on 08/01/2024 - 20:23

      No to both.

      • jupy on 08/01/2024 - 20:47

        One could add the Gift Card to their account balance and use it then, no?

        sorry mate, you're totally right. they changed it recently with the new laws

    • WookieMonster on 08/01/2024 - 20:49

      Regarding (1)…

      The only advantages for purchasing multiple gift cards across separate transactions are:

      • You will get a Coles fuel voucher for each transaction (assuming you are spending at least $30 on Apple gift cards).
      • You can avoid triggering the need for manager approval for a high-value gift card purchase.

      The main disadvantage is that it will take much longer for you to purchase all the gift cards you want to purchase, assuming staff will let you split the purchase of multiple gift cards across multiple transactions in the same visit (or on the same day).

      Regarding (2)…

      I believe the only situation where you are permitted (and are actually able to) purchase AppleCare+ using an Apple gift card as a payment method is at a physical Apple Store.

  • hubert2 on 08/01/2024 - 23:46

    Hi All, thanks for the sharing, but i'm a bit confused.

    So if I want to buy a bunch of giftcards, a. will that work (e.g. 4x $500)?, and b. will i receive a max of 50K points in 1 day?

    Given this expires tomorrow, it seems I can purchase only 50K worth, which equates to $250 worth of gifts cards (20k points per $100 gift card = 2.5 gift cards)

    Greatly appreciate any tips on how to maximize the benefits of this!

    • impoze on 08/01/2024 - 23:56

      20x not 200x,

      $100 is 2000 points, redeemable as $10 flybuys dollars.

      Woolworths 20x points on apple GC starts on wednesday so no rush if you miss at coles.

      • hubert2 on 09/01/2024 - 09:43

        Isn't it 20* the normal rate of points, so if you normally get 2000 points per? So i had interpreted that it was 20x * the rate of 2000 points per $100

        Or is it that the 20x multiple is already applied within the points outlined in the t&c's so $200 = 4,000 points?

        Sorry i am a points newbie

        • impoze on 09/01/2024 - 09:54
          +1

          1 point per dollar, 20x promo

          $100 gc = 2000 points = $10 flybuy dollars
