Can any of the Vanilla Visa prepaid cards be used to purchase these?
Tried for 10x: "Transaction failed, please contact customer service."
This happens to me if I use Safari on my Mac. I use Chrome and have no issues.
tried ~7 times and changed chrome profile worked
what does changing chrome profile mean?
Same here
Can you use coles master card to pay VicRoads car rego, has anyone tried?
It worked before, and should still be worked.
You can but note you cannot split payments on Vicroads online, even with Bpay/Sniip. So it's basically restricted to 3 month regos
Used to be able to top up lotterywest app… Now not allowed.
I just did few days ago albeit on their website. Has something changed since then?
I'm not sure. I tried 4 cards yesterday. All rejected from the app. I was using the physical Coles mastercards from Coles though.
I just tried on lotterywest website just then. Doesn't work. says "There was an error registering the card."
@Big-Deal: Yes just tried it! Paypal still works haha. Thats great. Thanks
edit: I managed to add 3 cards and topped up lotterywest but my 4th card got declined by paypal. Could be a fraud prevention protection.
@MaxHashrate: Great. Sometimes paypal declines Coles mc gcs. They weren't addable to paypal at all for a while till recently. So lotterywest have blocked directly then
No Google Pay or Apple Pay support right IIRC?
I think the Westfield eftpos no purchase fee is still valid for a week.
Where do you use the westfield eftpos cards? They don't work at auspost, right?
Aldi only for myself. Tho many places support that.
Amex edge got x3 points
nice, thanks for confirming
Does this website count as major supermarkets for 3x points with the platinum edge? Website is owned by Coles
Yes, it shows as Coles in your amex statement
The 10% off days gone
got 10 through - next lot all failing - is 10 the limit?
Yes
thanks
per day btw - 5 days to go

Declined - ATO PAYMENT , XX SYDNEY, NSW9/10 card worked out fine then got declined for the last one. Finally they blocked ATO payment?
1st card worked fine and second one got blocked
Tried again after 30 minutes ish and it worked.
Then was running batch of 10, got declined from 9th.@tc423: Ato portal have limit I think around 5 cards / 12-24 hours.
It will reset again after those.@bbqwer: I think it's ~10 in ~12 hours. Doesn't seem to be rolling though, ie the clock doesn't reset for another 10 immediately after you last payment.
See link below for government easy pay which lets you do another ~10 in 12 hours.
I called Giftcards.com.au and they said it was considered a suspicious transaction. They told me to wait 2 hours and try again, but if it still doesn’t work, to use somewhere else. There must be a lot of people using these on ATO right now LOL
Just worked now after 1.5 hours.
@mauza: Glad to see this. My 10th ATO payment was declined. I did 5 via my.gov.au and 4 using government easy pay, and the 10th just was declined. I also tried paying my council rate with that 10th card, and also declined. So, it's definitely some incorrect fraud prevention on Giftcards' side, not the ATO's side.
same here, probably hit a daily limit as per some other comments.
if you add a 0 to the left of the PNR, it will go thru just fine. Then add 00 if you need to.
Would it work on council rates?
Think it would depend on the council and their payment system, but most likely yes
depends on the council, but usually yes
I have in the past and it worked
Managed to put 2x through auspost bill pay.
Additonal cards failed after that. Same with the council direct website. I guess it'll work after a few hours.
Is there any way to buy more than 10? Is it the card used for payment that they track? I mean, can I use the same card on 2 different accounts?
completely different card & purchaser detail works.
Ideally different browser profile too.
I only got 2 earning points cards, will have to wait until tomorrow then, thanks!
given they ask for your billing address will that cause it to decline for more in one day?
: "Transaction failed, please contact customer service."
Does anyone have a solid figure on how many of these can be "safely" used with the ATO without being flagged (for audit)? Or at least the experience of using 100 of these a year, for example?
My understanding is that ATO flags you for anything irregular - paying taxes too late, paying too early apparently both earn you a flag. If multiple flags lead to an audit then it would be way too much hassle to be worth the points here. I wonder if paying via 100s of small prepaid cards also earn you a flag.
As much as audits are a PITA - if you're not doing anything wrong, the payment method is the last of your concerns.
I've read about people putting through 100k+ with prepaid cards quarterly. No idea if they're exaggerating or not. Also no idea how they get that quantity of cards.
Ive put through 100k+, back in the days when it physical cards only for this promo.
The only issue was when I had a 25k+ credit in one of my accounts, and I was told I was unable to get a cheque for the balance.
Had to transfer it to another ATO account that had a debt (family member), took 3+ months.
The only issue was when I had a 25k+ credit in one of my accounts, and I was told I was unable to get a cheque for the balance.
I currently have this issue but with a much smaller amount. I haven't been given the option to transfer it. I haven't worried about it because I know I have a debt at some point to balance it out.
However, I suspect it's holding up one of my tax returns that's stuck in balancing account. Every time I phone up about the tax return, they say they'll escalate and a few days later I get a call about not being able to issue a refund due to the gift card payment. Not idea if the two issues are related but it does seem like they are.
paid $16k recently and they didn't even raise an eyebrow.
Is that a pre-payment? i.e. you don’t actually owe them anything?
Nah was a debt - this time I'm pre-paying $10k to my business activity account since Q1 BAS is due Oct.
@cynix: I overpaid about $2k for my last BAS and it was just showing up as credit balance.
I saw some ozb comments says ATO won't give cash refund for that tho.
@Yrgnuh: They won't, you can either refund to original paymethod, use it as a Cr around future Dr,
Or trasnfer the balance to another ATO payment reference number
Used AMEX QFF Ultimate CC, was able to make 4 x $2,500 purchases to earn 12,500 QF pts.
Nice work. Spent 15 of the 40 GCs so far.
Flex post
how did you get more than 10 cards ?
did u use the same card ?
probably with supplementary cards
Very doggy card provider with customer service/ call centre in India, I guess? Called them 10+ times and being escalated multiple times in 8 months. Every time they "guarantee" or "promise" they will send me a replacement card but never receive one. They also refused to provide a number or re-direct my call to their finance department or the department responsible for replacement card.
Lucky I still have my receipt, sent Coles all of the details and got a Coles refund card.I brought ten of these last year and they all got scammed . im still waiting for an outcome email from them
How are they able to scam these?
the scammers got into my email address and took everything including these cards I had sitting there
the scammers got into my email address
That is kinda on you rather than giftcards.com.au
Suggest you report to its regulating authority otherwise you could wait forever.
And to answer whoever is asking, these cards, even bought digital/online, are vulnerable. Even it's not scammed, but if the issuing company believes so for whatever reason, you will have to fight a painful war to prove yourself with all the correct card creds is not a scammer but the actual owner of it.
the online ones got scammed? The ones I bought in coles were scammed but didn't realise they were scamming these as well
Seeing a weird error when paying with DEFT - Declined - Security Policy - Deft tokenize
has anyone come across this before?Do it without logging in
unfortunately also seeing this error even when I am not logged in. weird though i get hte payment success from deft, so thinking it will reject and refund tomorrow…
Been there. 9 of 10 worked and last one failed. And it failed other place as well, I think something wrong with that single card.
Can this be used in store ?
Has anyone had issues with the payment by using CBA and Westpac credit cards? I have tried both and the website gives me the message as ‘transaction failed, please contact customer service’. I have checked with bank and they didn’t block the transaction.
I got the error on the website and also got a notification from my Westpac app saying it blocked the transaction.
I said to unblock it and tried again and got the same error on the website.
I’m using Safari’s on iPhone though so I’m going to try again on a PCI have tried again and it’s still showing transaction failed, contact customer service. I think it’s not the bank causing the issue, it’s Coles gift card issuer might have reached the daily limit for sale.
I am a previous CBA credit card client. Used to fail the transactions for giftcards.com.au. After some days this is ok. Suspect something with gambling lock.
Current Westpac credit card client. Transaction and card was blocked for $2.5k payment. Since then there is no luck for successful transaction today…
@thanks9527: I have tried CBA card today as well but no luck. Last time was OK, so I believe it’s not banking issue, it’s the gift cards.com
@thanks9527: just speak to westpac and they say its mastercard that blocked the transaction as it has flagged as risky transaction
westpac said Coles will need to contact mastercard to have it unblock
I successfully bought 7 x cards tonight on iOS Safari so it must have been a Mastercard thing.
I can't believe this shit deal gets 100+ upvotes.
People really need to stop buying this when there is 0% discount at all.
The more you more now, the less chance they will bring back 10% (7.48%) off!
It's just basic supply and demand…But I need to spend $3500 for bonus point on my Virgin High Flyer card and my council rate is $2800. Without buying this shite, how do I spend $3500 ?
Just go prepay your water/power/NBN bills.
True Ozbargainers churn utilities/internet like how you churn health insurance.
Isn't most councils now surcharge u for all cc payments…?
Well. Not my council.
Can you pay your Council through PostBillpay ?
But I must buy, my country needs me(to pay up).
Do it for your
countrybank*.
* (Banks own countries)
Exactly - As this offer is popular for a 1-3% bonus, the 10% discount will never come back
Not able to buy any 10 or 1 using amex
@b0b0: Yeah pretty sure it does not show up as an open/active credit card. But I can’t remember if there was an enquiry at the time of signup not… it was too long ago :p
