        $500 / acc

        $200 x 2 + $100 x 1

        i wanted that full 18.456% off vs the 18.364% , as it's an extra $3.68 (after $4000 in cards) hehe

        • Why not $750/acc

          $200 x 2 + $100 x 1 $91.83 discount

          $200 x 1 + $50 x 1 $45.91 discount

          Doesn't that work out the same?

          • +1

            @djlee: was trying to avoid the $100 and below denominations as ebya has a lmit on GC's / trasaction i think it's 10?

            • +1

              @paraneoplastic: No more than a total of $1500 in Gift Cards may be redeemed per transaction, no more than a total of $2000 in Gift Cards may be redeemed per day, and no more than a total of $5000 in Gift Cards may be redeemed per calendar month. Further, you may only redeem a maximum of eight Gift Cards in any single transaction (and fewer if you are redeeming Gift Cards in combination with other redemption codes, such as coupons or vouchers).

              • @jobski: ahh there you ok thanks for letting me know :)

                • @paraneoplastic: Agree with everything but 20 cards can be redeemed or 19 with a code that most people play with .

                  • @profar: nod. 20 cards can definitely be used for gift card redemption. I recently purchased a commercial fridge using all my $50 denominations during the woolies 10% sale.

    • Can you help

      I guess you used 1 PayPal for 4 eBay UK for the transaction?

      Did you use same au and UK address across all 8 eBay account?

      Did you use same au mobile to activate your eBay UK account when you added register address?

      Did you same mobile,name, bank /cc details for both PayPal account?

      Did you use VPN and change country to UK?

      • Yes one paypal account (which in retrospect was a mistake)

        No random addresses every time

        No i used a legit burner number (but always used an AU one)

        again i made the mistake of using my secondary paypal 8 times (which lead to the suspension of the account)

        No didn't use VPN. Only chrome incognito

        • How do you get burner number?

          I used three separate number from family but still nothing worked..

          Trying to figure out what make PayPal security system to be activated.

            4. Add primary address as some random one, just start typing a numebr and autofill it
            5. go to postage address and add a random australian address and tick the make primary address buttom at bottom

            • @paraneoplastic: Thanks mate, use to able to buy for $2000 worth gc this way but for last three months unable to get anything because of PayPal and eBay is helpless.

              So I was wondering whether they are blocking residential address or something else that I have common across all my PayPal account or stopping PayPal au payments on eBay UK.

  • I seem to be getting an error message for the promo code. Anyone had any luck in the last 15 minutes?

    Trying to get 3 x $200 ebay digital gc.

    • Same. I got:

      Looks like that's the wrong code. Please double-check and try again.

      What did I do wrong?

      • +1

        Minimum spend $250

        • Shouldn't be a problem as i had 2 x $200 and 1 x $100 in the cart.

  • +1

    I keep receiving the buying limit message now from ebay, so I did live chat on ebay AU, they redirected me to ebay uk live chat and they said we can unlock it but you will have to phone the specialist team and they will do it for you. I ended the chat. Guess I cannot buy anymore.

  • +1

    Got another problem:

    We ran into a problem and PayPal isn't available right now. Please select a different payment option.

    • try adding voucher first then click paypal,

    • +1

      seems they patched the glitch or deactivated the promo code early. Seems to coincide with ebay UK opening hours.

      Still waiting for my first $500 gift cards I purchased several hours ago now, hopefully they won't cancel them like they did with other commentator earlier and/or suspension of eBay and/or PP accounts

  • +1

    Thanks OP. Now waiting for an iPhone 11 Pro Max deal, 20% off eBay code, use Gift cards purchased and claim TRS on listing price….

  • after 24 hours of my 1st purchase using my paypal, I've just made my 2nd purchase successfully using 2nd UK eBay account and the same paypal account.

    • Is your second eBay account new or old? Maybe the trick to avoid all these issues is to use an established account?

      • Old and I was getting all sort of paypal error messages: can't process, try different payment etc.

      • I created 4 new UK accounts yesterday and used 2 old ones and all worked fine.

  • Finally got it worked after a call to PayPal with no waiting. Though the lady mentioned there wouldn’t be any more transaction went through from the same seller (maybe in a couple of days?).
    Unfortunately no David Jones cards left. Got the eBay ones.

  • Does anyone know when cards like Wish or JB's or Freedom get renewed after being sold out. Is it the next working day?

  • +1

    "Looks like that's the wrong code. Please double-check and try again."

    Am I doing something wrong?

    • I always got this when I tried it. Could never get this fixed.

      • I think we may need to create an ebay Uk account to buy this. I got to many account now, I forgot which one was the Uk one :-P

  • Looks like they pulled it

    • yea, got through once
      but can't make any further orders whether for physical items for giftcards.
      Managed to call Paypal b4 they close tonight - they said all systems normal, we're just blocking certain 'risky' transactions, nothing you/we can do about it, sorry!

  • +1

    Ordered $500 ($200 x 2) ($100 x 1) no issues. Used the old UK acc I made from the previous deal.

  • +1

    Created one account just now and bought 500 worth of eBay gift card..
    Didn't receive it yet but payment went through easily..

  • It seems, you can place like 2 orders using the same PayPal account, then wait for 24 hours and you can place another one. Without calling PP asking them for their help

    • I did 6 orders in one day of 4x $250 and 2x $500 in one day on the same paypal account. Seems no reason why it works for some but not others.

  • 2x$200 only gives ~11.5% discount ?

    • +2

      You need to spend either $250 or $500 in the transaction to fully maximise the discount :)

    • +1

      To get the max 18.6% you need to buy $500 worth to get $92 off… or buy $250 and get $46 off…

  • I got an SMS confirming my purchase and replied accordingly. anyone else had the same? how long before u got the gift cards released? looking to make a purchase tonight

    • +1

      I've been waiting since 11am same as others

    • +2

      The SMS is legit, I got it also, it's a promising sign, payment should go straight through after that… Your cards shouldn't be too far away…

  • -1

    I can only see $5-$25 options, higher amounts as shown as OOS.

    Once I add the $5 one to my basket, I am getting the following error message:

    This item cannot be purchased because this item cannot be sent to your delivery address.

    But I am already using a newly registered UK eBay account with a random UK address

    • +1

      Try these:
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/7759483/redir

      and set your default delivery address to your aussie postal address.

      • -1

        Thanks, but the links only take me to gift cards that are priced at their face values - i.e. no discount

        • +1

          So when you apply the code in the checkout the price doesn't change?

          Add cards to cart
          go to checkout
          insert code POUNDSOFF down the bottom left

          Let us know how you go..

          • @FLICKIT: I created new uk acc, add uk address, make aus address primary. It still wont let me pay via paypal or card, what am I missing here?

          • @FLICKIT: Thanks, but I still cannot pay, I think it is because my Paypal account is 'not in good standing'. Although it is not showing up as limited or anything, I will have to give Paypal a call first thing tomorrow morning

            :(

  • Been going smooth sailing for a while and now it doesnt work… Hmm..

    • Just ordered. So it still works.

      • Must be that my paypal locked itself. Looks like I have to make one of those phone calls too…

        • Same here. Started greying out and I haven't bothered trying again after

          • @profeeder55: Might call them at 8am and get some last few orders through. I actually ran out of money on my main acc and had to add a second card - which is when they got iffy.

  • saw lots of people posted they paid $408.xx for (i assumed) $500 ebay egift card, but i paid $407.72 just seconds ago. is this because of the currency fluctuation?

    Order total
    Subtotal AUD 500.00
    Postage Free
    Total voucher amount -AUD 92.28
    Total AUD 407.72

    • Yes aud went up against pound overnight so thats why its slightly different.

      • -3

        LOL no currency transaction in this :)

        AUD to AUD :)

        • +1

          But the discount on A$500 seems to be 50 pounds, = about A$92, so the discount has changed with the exchange rate fluctuation.

        • But there is!

          • @ATangk: Yeap the Discount on GBP keeps changing but I've got no trading till Mon morning on FX markets . Probably different bank CC currency exchange fees .

    • Yep, the exchange rate must have changed… They ripped me off at Total: AU $408.17.. I'm not happy at all !

      • Damn. Lost 45 cents.

  • +1

    Keep getting the "We ran into a problem and PayPal isn't available right now. Please select a different payment option." error. I called PayPal and they said that specific transaction is blocked by their automatic security systems and there's nothing they can do to override it (they tried) so I won't be able to purchase that product…

    I've been able to enter the code first but haven't been able to pay - tried using CC…it went through but got bounced back an hour later :(

    Any help appreciated, but otherwise gl all

    • @Jindustries - I’m having the same issue. Been trying all day.

  • no more wish giftcards i so bought $1000 worth ebay gc instead :(
    total only 6 gc so i can go and buy another $500?

    • +1

      Huh ?, there's a 5 cards per 10 days buying limit on each ebay account..

      If you bought a second lot of 3 cards= $500, the payment wont go through, it will show as "Payment pending" in your purchase history, the transaction will be cancelled in a couple of hours…

      This is why people buy 3 cards = $500, and 2 cards = $250, which is the best discount you can get on a single account, about $612 for the $750 worth of cards..

      • huh? dont know but i got it working. 2 transactions, each is 2x200 & 1x100 total 6 cards. in just 10 mins apart. but yes only got 1 email order ebay confirmation so far

        • Has the paypal payment gone through? Did you get emails from ebay and paypal for the second transaction?

          • @FLICKIT: yes correct it says pending. my bad somehow i thought 10 gc in 10 days. anything i can do now? like cancel and repurchase?

            • +1

              @CyberMurning: I think you have to wait the couple of hours till that transaction automatically gets cancelled before you can buy another 2…

              Try, a $200 and a $50, (or a $150 and a $100), they should cost $204..

              • @FLICKIT: ok thanks will wait for the cancellation. also received just 1 paypal email receipt (for the 1st $407.xx).

  • +1

    Finally got it to work. Think the problem might have been I was trying to use a fake UK phone number for the UK address, used real mobile and it worked.

    • yes i used fake uk add but au real mobile phone number when registering for new ebay uk ac

  • +1

    All I want for Xmas is a Ebay Plus 15 % deal in next 9 days .

  • Ahh wtf. Just bought $500 worth, tried to buy another $250 and could not add to cart. Got an email the ebay account has been suspended…

    Hope I still get the $500..

  • Finally got it to work, all of a sudden Paypal stopped greying out! Called Paypal earlier and the lady advised nothing could be done to remove the block as it's done by the system automatically, no verification option or anything. I asked her to escalate the issue formally, she said yes although not likely to help. But next time I tried, it worked, maybe it helped or maybe a time related thing (I hadn't tried on this paypal account since yesterday morning)?

  • Just got it working with credit card but only for $250 worth of cards…. damn. Repeatedly having problems getting paypal to work. Better than nothing I suppose.

    • Just put another $250 through no problem. Not sure why it's working all of a sudden.

      • +1

        yeah I was having issues too, until moments ago

        • Actually, just got an email saying payment wasn't processed. Orders are cancelled…

          • +1

            @sitdowndisco: only through paypal.

            • @Inflow: Yeah I've got the paypal block at the moment.

              • +1

                @sitdowndisco: yeah mine's blocked too, but on my main AU account it still purchases stuff. Ebay uk live chat said we can do it but you have to call us so i didn't bother.

  • +3

    I just bought $1500 of gift cards, wth is wrong with me… haha

    • what gc? you found $500 nominal in one gc?

  • +1

    How long to receive cards on average? They banned my ebay account and said the 'bid' was retracted. Wonder if I will get them or not, they took the money and no refund.

    • +1

      Maybe up to 24 hours. They also banned one of my accounts but eventually got the codes after 12 hours.

    • Mine last night came within an hour.

    • you still get them,

    • Based on experience, you'll still get them.

  • +1

    It seems you can also buy more than 5 with same ebay account, I bought 5 yesterday without any issues and bought 3 more this morning. Just checked again now it still allows me to buy 5 more and discount also gets applied. But make sure don't add multiple quantity of same voucher, only add single of each value.

    • yes you can, but the payment will be pending. i bought 3 then 3 again, but the second lot payment status pending and no email confirmation… try it :)

      • +1

        So far all good with me, no pending and got my gift cards already.

        • Surprising. Does not allow me to add any vouchers post my purchase of 5 yesterday. Keeps Sayan gn the buyer is blocked due to limit exceeded. You can only buy 5 from this seller in 10 days. Not sure I am doing differently.

      • mine got the same issue. PENDING. Hopefully I'll receive the gift card.
        bought it last night……….still waiting

  • +1

    Is anyone else now also getting the error 'You already applied this code to an order.' after making a new account but using the same PayPal account?

  • Can only seem to buy 5 in total… does that sounds right?
    I got 3 in one transaction successfully, went to add another 3 more but could only do 2 more… as it was saying I could only buy 5 in 10 days from the seller.
    Then my PayPal seems to be have been banned, paying with credit card won't work now. Maybe i'm banned.. managed to snag 3 x $200 though still good I suppose.

    Not sure if its been asked before but can you apply regular promo/coupon codes when using these vouchers?

    • +2

      Yes it has been and yes you can.

      • Thx for confirming

    • Should only have done 2 x 200 and 1 x 100 haha.
