      On the phone now, sounds like there's plenty of calls about it.

      Didn't refund me, waiting on a call back for resolution.

      Just spoke to "Lucy", and when I said I just placed an order, she immediately said… "for the gift cards?"
      Sounds like they're being hammered, and after speaking with her supervisor, said they're working on the issue and will give me a call back - no refund as of yet.

        Spoke to "Lucy" as well. She kept asking me if I got the deal from ozbargain or somewhere else to which i said somewhere else lol

        Anyway, she said she will cancel the order via a 3rd party and give me a call back when it is done.

          Just got a call back, they're refunding the $25 into my account.

        • SevenSmurfs on 07/01/2016 - 15:03

          @iRMonkey:

          yep got the same call - gift card will be sent later on

    Just a reminder to everyone who has a GE money based credit card - I stupidly forgot about them treating gift cards like cash advances and paid with my 28 degrees card. It's possible that they will charge $4 cash advance fee and interest on top of that so it's a good idea to check your statement. Hopefully because it's come from target that wont happen as they don't know what you bought.

    • montorola on 07/01/2016 - 11:30

      But the thing is, how do they know you bought a gift card? I thought all they see on their end is $100 purchase at target.

      • chiefbodge on 07/01/2016 - 11:32
        +1

        Yeah you're most probably right. But I was very surprised at them knowing when I bought gift cards via ebay and paid via paypal - but I guess they would've known that the seller was selling gift cards.

    • tensai on 07/01/2016 - 12:13

      just interest to ask, will the statement indicate whether it is a cash advance?

      • chiefbodge on 07/01/2016 - 12:21

        Yeah you should see something that says CASH ADVANCE FEE $4 in the next day or so if you have been charged. As montorola pointed out though it's very unlikely they will know because target sells lots of stuff that isn't gift cards. I think lots of people were stung with the ebay thing because the gift cards were purely from a gift card seller.

        • tensai on 07/01/2016 - 12:32

          cool thanks, at least that way I can tell it was decided to be a Cash Advance, and I will proceed to pay out the card…. not wait till the end of statement and realised there is a cash advance and any purchase afterwards will be charged interest…

        • chiefbodge on 07/01/2016 - 12:35
          +1

          @tensai:

          That's not quite how it works - you will only be charged interest on the cash advance amount ($125 in this case) if you make normal purchases afterwards they will be treated with the normal interest free period. Transfering $125 at any point will prevent any further interest from being charged.

          The law changed a few years ago to force credit card companies to pay off the most expensive rate first - so cash advances will be paid off before anything else.

          That said I was probably wrong to raise this point because I am almost certain there is no way for GE money to know that we have bought gift cards from target.

        • chill on 07/01/2016 - 20:14

          @chiefbodge:

          That said I was probably wrong to raise this point because I am almost certain there is no way for GE money to know that we have bought gift cards from target.

          Mate no offence but everything you have said is wrong.

          The eBay thing was a one off from a dodgy merchant/paypal issue that affected multiple card companies.

          That's not quite how it works - you will only be charged interest on the cash advance amount ($125 in this case) if you make normal purchases afterwards they will be treated with the normal interest free period. Transferring $125 at any point will prevent any further interest from being charged.

          This is also wrong. Once you do a cash advance everything before and after in the current statement cycle incurs interest from the original date of purchase.

          You have to wait for a statement to be generated and only then if you pay the $125 as per your example will it apply to the higher interest rate (cash advance) but if you then don't pay the full statement balance everything else will continue accumulating interest because of the one off cash advance.

        • chiefbodge on 07/01/2016 - 20:36

          Mate no offence but everything you have said is wrong.

          I'm not your mate and everything I have said is not wrong. The reason I even brang this up in the first place is that technically purchasing gift cards from any merchant counts as a cash advance under GE moneys terms and conditions. Whether or not they can correctly mark it as so is something for discussion.

          The eBay thing was a one off from a dodgy merchant/paypal issue that affected multiple card companies.

          No it wasn't, there never was a full explanation about that issue as everyone denied responsibility. The most likely explanation was the CC companies looking at the merchant text and deciding automatically from that whether it was something that fits inside what they consider a cash advance (gift card companies / betting companies etc..)

          This is also wrong. Once you do a cash advance everything before and after in the current statement cycle incurs interest from the original date of purchase.

          Respectfully, you are wrong, not me, I suggest you look into it further. I'm guessing you have never done a cash advance because if you had've you would've realised that what you are saying is not true.

    Just wondering did the T&C of the voucher code excludes gift card?

    • [Deactivated] on 07/01/2016 - 11:36

      I took a quick look at the app and didn't see anything mentioning exclusion of gift cards.

      • SevenSmurfs on 07/01/2016 - 11:52

        I called up Target and the operator mentioned that it was excluded - didn't see the finer details though

    I gave Target customer centre a call, tried to ask them to give me the $25 difference after Paypal receipt showing $125 instead of $100 in the cart.

    But they could only cancel my order instead, 30 mins wasted on 2 calls.

    • supitysup on 07/01/2016 - 12:46

      at least they offered to cancel your order?

    • Homr on 07/01/2016 - 12:54

      • SlickMick on 07/01/2016 - 13:36
