    First 2 $200 HN GC order successful, new order new card rejected. This could be credit card protection and anti- money laundering action rather than related to this offer.

    Ordered 2 x $200 egiftcards online. Received Amex email straigaway re cash back but 10 minutes later, order rejected by HN! I suppose Amex will reverse the credit. Does anyone know if my card is still eligible for this offer for my next purchase from HN with the same card?

    • yht on 20/11/2017 - 23:09

      The question should be when the refund will be credited by HN.

      • Mario123 on 20/11/2017 - 23:15

        You are right! Forgotten about the $400 refund.

        • yht on 20/11/2017 - 23:23

          Better to wait for $100 credit before asking HN for the refund. Just to be safe.

        • Mario123 on 22/11/2017 - 10:31

          @yht:
          Update - HN refunded $400 the next day. No sign of Amex credit.

        • yht on 22/11/2017 - 11:42

          @Mario123: At least they have refunded you though. Mine is still hanging there.

        • illumination on 03/01/2018 - 05:15

        THey don't like people to get the reward. If the reward is minimal such as less than $10 for buying $400, they probably won't budge.

    My online gift cards were rejected however I received email straight away from Amex. Credit applied to my account 2 days later and it has now been taken away.

    • yht on 21/11/2017 - 09:26

      Did you get the refund straight away too?

      • Ash-Say on 21/11/2017 - 09:35

        The credit appeared as soon as the payment was cleared i.e. 2 days but it has taken away on 3rd day.

        • victorheaven on 21/11/2017 - 11:28

          Was the credit taken back before refund appears in your account?

          Did the same thing, expecting credit to be taken back now. :(

        • Ash-Say on 21/11/2017 - 11:32

          @victorheaven: no credit was taken back after it was applied.

        • victorheaven on 21/11/2017 - 12:17

          @Tipu:

          Thanks, that makes sense.

    • MathNerd on 25/11/2017 - 18:39

      Hi Tipu, when the credit was taken away, does the HN offer now appear under your "Saved to Card" offers or have they treated it as being "redeemed"? As I've had multiple orders reviewed, rejected and refunded, and wondering if I can go in store rather than make the orders online, and still get the credit.

      • Ash-Say on 25/11/2017 - 18:41

        My online order was rejected but I purchased another gift card afterward within store and I have already received automated credit for that purchase.

        • MathNerd on 25/11/2017 - 18:43

          Ah cool, thanks for that. So what you're saying is AmEx somehow "reactivate" the offer for you after you've been refunded the $400, they've taken the $100 credit away, and then you spend another $400 physically in store? That's really good to know. At what stage did you purchase the gift card in store? After the refund and credit takeaway or in between order rejection and receipt of refund? Thanks heaps mate.

        • Ash-Say on 25/11/2017 - 18:50

          @MathNerd: Your understanding is correct and I also confirmed this with Amex via Chat before making in store purchase.

          My in store purchase using same card was within a week of Amex taking away $100 credit.

        • MathNerd on 25/11/2017 - 18:51

          @Tipu: Ah, that's good on you, confirming in black and white that the credit still applies. I'm assuming though that no email was received at the time of transaction along the lines of "Thank you for using the Harvey Norman offer"?

        • Ash-Say on 25/11/2017 - 18:58

          @MathNerd: Correct no email was received but the credit got applied within 2 business days.

        • MathNerd on 25/11/2017 - 19:07

          @Tipu: That's awesome to hear, thanks so much for your help Tipu.
          I'll make sure I follow your steps, that is, get the refund, wait for AmEx to take the credit away, and then go in-store to make the purchases. Can't risk anything.

        • Ash-Say on 25/11/2017 - 19:46

          @MathNerd: no worries. Hope it goes well for you

        • MathNerd on 25/11/2017 - 19:53

          @Tipu: Thanks mate. Appreciate it.

          @MathNerd: I called the amex rep tonight and they said I can not get the credit. Even after I told them HN rejected my purchase for no reason it wasn't a refund.

          "Sorry sir the offer was claimed then and we can not reissue it again"

          I did get the email saying thanks for using the offer, had the $100 credit provided and then taken away.

          Offer no longer in my saved to card offers.

        • PissLUR on 06/12/2017 - 11:31

        • knobbs on 06/12/2017 - 11:37

          @PissLUR: Hmm maybe I should try another AMEX rep and see what they say. Seems like a few people have still got it to work. Did you still have the offer come up under saved offers or what were the circumstances you had before you purchased the 2nd time?

        • PissLUR on 06/12/2017 - 11:40

          @knobbs:

          the offer no longer appear under saved offers.

  • Fancydancer on 21/11/2017 - 18:15

    I wonder for those who had gift cards rejected whether Amex offer can then be used on another purchase or if it is then invalid (most likely).

    • Mario123 on 25/11/2017 - 17:11

    I was refused a sell at a store today when I tried to use Amex to buy gift cards.
    I have complained via HN facebook and got a reference number for it. I will post the response here once received.

    In essence, they try to regulate how their customers choose to set their accounts, which I find rather absurd.

    • madmo on 22/11/2017 - 13:39

        I just came back from the store with a Gift card. All good. No hassles at checkout. It's Melb CBD QV store

        Gees, you should have told me that earlier. It seems Vpay is a so much better option.

    • bluedufflecoat on 23/11/2017 - 21:23

      I just went to the harvey Norman Facebook page. All the visitors post are positive… Which makes me think that they delete all negative posts. I wonder if I should try to get giftcards tomorrow. The heat is a bit of a deterrent.

    • Pigey on 27/11/2017 - 14:49

      C. Transactions that are not eligible
      The following transactions are not eligible and will not count towards your spend for the purposes of
      the offer:
       transactions where you do not spend directly with the merchant (for example, if you buy the
      merchant’s goods through a third party department store);
       transactions processed through a third party payment processor (for example, PayPal);
       transactions that are subsequently cancelled or refunded;
       transactions where you buy a gift card, store credit or a voucher.

      Gift cards weren't part of the promotion. What was the basis of the complaint?

      • puffinfresh on 28/11/2017 - 15:11

        You should still be able to buy them with an Amex regardless of whether or not they are part of the promotion.

        We all know in the end you will still get the credit despite the T&Cs.

    Thanks OP. I've used all my Amex's now.
    HN is a little over-priced, so do the following:

    1. Find what you want to buy on their site.
    2. Search for the product online via Staticice, etc and find a competitor with a cheaper price for the exact same product.
    3. Go the the live-chat on their website, and say:

    "Hi <their probably fake name>,
    Could you please price match this for me?
    <link to the competitor's product listing>"

    1. Sit back and wait a few minutes while the ygo and check for you.
    2. They'll give you a URL which expires within 24 hours. Click this and check-out using "Credit Card" (Not amex checkout)

    NOTE: I wouldn't try gift-cards, etc this time. I think they're following up and checking as the email says they'll need to verify the purchase.
    Same thing happened for my Hilton booking.

    Not bad!!
