      Harvey Norman is refusing and canceling all gift card purchases made with amex!

      Probably not for visa!

      • Stahh on 06/12/2016 - 21:39

        so people are buying $300 gift cards online at HN and getting cancellation emails ? sorry havnt been able to read the 11 pages.

    I purchased HN gift card online 2 days ago - $200 via using Amex card, it was approved. Don't ask me how HN determine whether to approve it or not. I received an email to say "under review", then the next day they approved my egift voucher.

      Purchase a $100 and a $200 separately and purchase the 2nd one after you receive the 1st one.Maybe use different HN accounts as well!

    I just bought $300 vpay from HN Gordon (and received Amex email instantly). Guy pointed me to the multiple warning signs and said "you understand the risks? There are no refunds. You can buy one only." He was reasonably nice about it.

    He said "we got these signs to put up by Amex, don't know why. I just sell you the card. Whatever happens between you and Amex is your business."

      The check-out person at Moore Park flatly refused to let me buy visa pre-paid card with AMEX. There was a prominent sign saying that at the counter anyway but I thought I would at least try.

      I ended up buying an Apple watch during their VIP night and split the payment for 2x$100 cashback.

      • Turd on 09/12/2016 - 11:13

      I was at HN Gordon over the weekend and couldn't find any vpay cards in the giftcards shelf in the electronics section. Am new to this vpay thing, from the website (https://www.pubpayments.com.au/site/prepaid-products/prepaid…), it says there is no plastic card?! So how do you go about buying it in HN? Do you just rock up to the cashier and ask to buy the vpay card? Can you load any amount and is there a processing fee?

      • tomclancy on 14/12/2016 - 22:28
        -1

        Do you just rock up to the cashier and ask to buy the vpay card?

        Yes. There is no plastic card. Just a piece of paper/receipt that they give you with the details on it.

        Can you load any amount

        Yes, but if the amount <> $300 then you're not doing OzBargain right

        is there a processing fee?

        Yes, $5.50. As in, pay $305.50 for a VPay worth $300

  • eecchhoo on 07/12/2016 - 14:50

    Just spend $300 last weekend at Harvey Norman store and I got 2 credits $100 and $20.
    Not sure if it's an error or what. But happy with the additional $20 credit.

    • T-man on 07/12/2016 - 21:21

      Probably $20 for the mobile wallet offer, did you use Apple pay or android pay?

      • eecchhoo on 07/12/2016 - 21:45

      Ok … I think i have solved this.
      I paid using NAB AMEX and they are currently having offer until 31 Dec for spending $100 at HN they will credit $20.

      Another offer from NAB AMEX for the same period for spending $20 or more at Telstra/Optus (Paid on Virgin bill get the credit as well) for $20 credit.

    • Fusakin on 08/12/2016 - 11:07

      Yes I have. It just means that the competitor must have a physical and online store.

      • SnoozeAndLose on 09/12/2016 - 10:49

        this actaclly mean that they wont match store like wireless1 and mobileciti fro mobile as they only have 1 store front.

    I personally don't believe in "Price beat guarantee" slogan in some shops as they are so many exclusions not written anywhere and the staff even asking why I don't shop in the cheaper store. It's just to attract customer to come to their store. I think ACCC needs to step in to tighten the stores.

  • paperblade on 10/12/2016 - 12:30

    HN nunawading still has VPAY giftcards if anyone is after some. got one yesterday. have a new AMEX coming from CBA from free upgrade to Diamond Awards which I had already registered before so will be getting another VPAY when it arrives.

    Guys, I am thinking of buying a macbook air 13' costing about 1500, using the amex harvey norman, have 2 cards registered for the offer.

    I have gone through all the comments and can see recently HN has only got stricter and the folks at HN, Broadway (the nearest store to me) appear unhelpful.

    You reckon if it is worth taking a chance and go ahead and make the purchase or do you completely advise against it? Thanks in advance for your advice.

    • SnoozeAndLose on 12/12/2016 - 10:42

      Stricter on what?

      Have split payment using 3 cards and no problem.

  • pluto on 11/12/2016 - 17:23

    Went to HN Moorabbin and asked for vpay or visa gift card but the lady said they have eftpos cards. I said to put 300 in eftpos card. Paid with Amex but later realised it was Harvey Norman giftcard. Asked them to refund , they tried several times but couldn't process refund. Asked the guy to process cash refund instead. Got $300 cash refund and email from Amex for $100 back. What's the chances of getting 100$ credit. Or can they block it??

    • tyank232 on 11/12/2016 - 19:30

    Hi All
    Sorry if I am asking a repeating question (as I am confused after getting various comments).

    I understand HN is randomly cancelling eGift cards when paid by AMEX.
    Also VPAY is hit and miss.

    However can we still purchase Harvey Norman Gift Cards directly from the stores?

    Thanks

    • Turd on 13/12/2016 - 11:25

      Hit and Miss, depending on store staff, time of day, time of month, how they feel etc.. YMMV

      BUT you can use VISA or MASTERCARD!!! lol

  • bauser99 on 13/12/2016 - 12:19

    Bought a $300 Vpay card at HN Belrose NSW today - lots of Vpay cards displayed on racks near the cash registers (in the computers / electrical section) - no signs anywhere about AMEX not being allowed for gift cards - no questions asked when processing the transaction - email confirming $100 statement credit received within 2 minutes :)

    • IMadeYouReadThis on 13/12/2016 - 12:47

      Is your receipt showing HN or HN @ Domayne?

      Few people have reported that HN @ Domayne works fine - anyone had experience at HN Ryde (which is HN @ Domayne)?

        AMEX statement shows DOMAYNE AV/IT BELROSE - printed receipt shows "Harvey Norman at Domayne Belrose"

        I did the same at the beginning of the month, never received email confirmation and AMEX took 10 days to post the credit. It looks like AMEX have updated their system to correctly track "HN @ Domayne" transactions now!

  • PLANT on 13/12/2016 - 21:37

Got my confirmations emails soon after that. Waiting for my credits now….

  • wandererbubu on 18/12/2016 - 17:52

  • Crazy Diamond on 20/12/2016 - 10:39

    Have been successfully buying (and receiving AMEX credits a day or so later) prepaid VISA gift cards, ie physical cards, from Harvey Norman Everton Park (Qld) over the past week. You can load them with any amount you like, but obviously in this instance $300 is the magical figure. Unless of course you want to buy 3 x $100 gift cards together as Christmas presents, then you get 1 of those 3 for free. No problems or questions (or signs!) from any staff. Happy buying if you have any offers left on your cards.

    • Crazy Diamond on 20/12/2016 - 10:45

      Of course the $5.95 purchase fee per card eats into the profit though, so a $300 card is much better value

      • PLANT on 20/12/2016 - 10:51

        Can you put two credit cards onto the one visa gift card for $5.95?
        ie $600 credit on 1 card?

        • Crazy Diamond on 20/12/2016 - 10:55

          Dont know, I didnt try. In theory should work, given that each card will be charged by HN, and I've done similar to that with other recent Amex deals eg Hilton deal, I part paid hotel stay at reception using different cards each morning, and got all credits.

          Makes sense if you want to avoid multiple $5.95 fees, and carry less prepaid visa cards

        • mmd on 20/12/2016 - 20:24

          @Crazy Diamond:
          The assistant showed me the Visa load machine and I chose option 7 which was the last option (300 plus fee).

        • PLANT on 20/12/2016 - 20:49

          @mmd: Are you saying highest amount is $300 to load?
          Or can you load $300 and then use another AMEX card and $300 making total $600 for $5.95 fee?

        • mmd on 20/12/2016 - 23:25

          @PLANT:
          Looks like max load is 300 plus fee as that was the last option on the load machine.
          Not sure if the attendant can manually type in 600…

    HN Oxley said I cannot buy Prepaid Visa Card with Amex, I asked why not, she said it is a prepaid card and the current Amex promotion therefore I cannot pay with Amex. It is BS!! and makes no sense at all with her reasons.

    • T-man on 21/12/2016 - 22:22

      Haha, was she the chuppy lady? They always tell BS to their customers. I went there a couples of times but did not buy anything because they were so rude and very unhappy.

      • wc on 21/12/2016 - 22:44

        She is about 20ish, she wasn't very confident when she answered my question. She must think I am retarded, I went to Garden City, very nice and friendly cashier. I will go there for all my future purchase even it is a bit out of my way.

        • mmd on 22/12/2016 - 17:31

          Just tell her to put it though anyway and not worry bout whether you'll get a cash back or not, as that's ur only card.
          You will get the cash back, Harvey Norman are just upholding the terms and conditions,but amex won't know what u spent.

        • wc on 23/12/2016 - 13:21

          @mmd: She will not let me pay, unlike some other stores you are given a warning and still let you pay. In short in her mind "PISS OFF, Haha you cannot pay with Amex and cannot get the credit. I am so JEALOUS wish I have a Amex card."

    Confirmed - Bought two VPay (non-plastic) gift cards from HN @ Domayne (North Ryde), received email straight away and credit came through this morning. Store had signs that Amex offer not applicable on GC and cashier also warned me but I just acted like I have no idea about what the Amex offer is.

    To be on safe side, I did buy $2 stationary item to ensure that Amex system doesn't identify automatically that I purchase a gift card.

        That is not a fair comment.
        The staff reflects the society in surrounding area.They try thair best.
        HN is happy to sell HN gift cards not Visa giftcards.Amex instructed not to sell gift cards through amex.
        Now we can find ways to cheat the system.
        If the staff is not coming to party we can't just blame them.They just follow the orders.
        Just labeling them Dumbos is very poor.

          Do you have proof that amex instructed them not to sell gift cards?

        • tomclancy on 30/12/2016 - 21:28

          HN is happy to sell HN gift cards

          Then why did they cancel all HN gift card orders placed online??? What about the reports in this thread of people not being allowed to buy HN physical gift cards in store???

          Turd is right. HN management suck at their job. We ozbargainers knew that years ago and nothing has changed.

          @PBG:
          Why would HN refuse to sell gift cards which is money in their pocket?
          HN prices are rip off unless you try to price match.
          If we are playing by the rules and they are dishonoring we have the right to complain.
          If we are trying to use the loophole and if it goes through good for us otherwise move on instead of demeaning people work at these businesses.
          They may not have amex cards or previlages you may have that doesn't give you the right to demean the staff.

          @sachy: the staff make the customer feel like they are criminals by using their cards to purchase an item at their stores.

          why can't they be nice and assist customers instead of being rude.

          what happens between the customer and their credit card provider has nothing to do with the retailer

          Because, as Turd so elequantly put it, they are dipcrack dumbos.

          Turning away sales in their own store because of a lack of understanding of a basic payment system. Can you think of another reason why they would turn away sales?

          I couldn't agree more! I felt like they were thinking that I am using a stolen credit card.

      online orders are being cancelled

      vpay are to be purchased instore only, but can only be used online (no physical card) and will cost $5.50 to activate plus the amount you wish up to $300
      You can also buy a visa prepaid gift card which costs $5.95 to activate plus the amount you wish up to $300. You get a physical card which can be used pretty much everywhere.
