                  @NirajSS: Yes, I did 3x$100 to buy the variable at self-service, as that's all I need this time. Again, if the staff prevent u on doing it, pls don't abuse him :)

      • @hanofee
        is that new? Back in March i bought 15/20 Visa GC at 10% last minute so store was happy for me to buy as much as I wanted and scanned 3-4 new flybuys paper/temp card and got instant 10% off….

        • there are now more and more restriction on buying GC, Wookie will be the best wiki for that :)

        • +3

          That was a once-off.

          For later discounted Coles Mastercard / Vanilla Visa gift card deals at Coles (e.g. this one from June 2023), you needed a fully registered Flybuys card to take advantage of the discount. Temporary Flybuys cards did not trigger the discount.

  • Just noticed that a $250 GC is actually getting you 2257 flybuys points. 2000+257. $100 should work in accordance I presume.

    • It does. 2105 pts.

  • Just looked into this again:
    https://experience.flybuys.com.au/rewards/money-off-shop/

    Converts to flybuy dollars and set a pin in the app, still seems like you need to use the physical FB card if you want to pay with those dollars?

    • +1

      yes you do. it's essentially turning your flybuys physical card into an eftpos, so it becomes easier to spend the balance, regardless the amount spent

      • Yes, just shame can't do it with the app/phone was my point.

    • But you can't buy coles MC gift cards with flybuys dollars.

      • You actually can, at Target/Kmart, just not at Coles itself

        • +1

          I believe you can no loner do that at Kmart. Now only Target and Coles Express still allow it.

        • +1

          I was told by someone last week that they triggered the Invalid Product Mix error when trying to use Flybuys Dollars to pay for a gift card at Kmart.

          I tested it a couple of days ago at a Kmart and also saw the error message.

          • @WookieMonster: Oh soon they’ll close the loophole in all their groups then :(

            • @hanofee: @WookieMonster I just bought $500 (max amount) via LiquorLand in WA. So I guess for now Target/LL/ColesExp still works but I strongly believe they are gradually gonna update these POSs too.

  • in selected states only.

    • Have you checked your card's balance?
      https://www.mybalancenow.com/#/using-your-card

    • Did you call the phone number on the back of the card?

        • And they said they were not the ones to call? Weird.

      • +1

        I felt for you.

      • +5

        If you have an issue with a Coles Mastercard gift card, 07 5660 6022 is the correct number to call, because that is the support phone number for Coles Mastercard gift cards. I talk more about phone numbers here.

        If your gift card activation request says approved on the purchase receipt, it means that the gift card was activated correctly. If you then get an error message when you try to check the balance on the balance check website and you get a message on 07 5660 6022 when checking the balance saying there is an issue with your card, it means your gift card has been blocked. You need to speak to someone on 07 5660 6022 to have them unblock the gift card.

        If your gift card activation request says declined on the purchase receipt, it means that the gift card activation request was declined. The Coles store that sold you that gift card needs to refund you or exchange your dud gift card for another Coles Mastercard gift card, although you may need a duty/store manager to authorise this. If the Coles store refuses to help you, call Coles Customer Care and explain to them that your gift card activation was declined at Coles and the store is refusing to help.

        I would also suggest you double check that the gift cards you have are the ones you actually scanned and paid for at Coles. For example:

        • If you purchased multiple Coles Mastercard gift cards in one transaction and you double-scan one gift card, Coles’ checkouts may not warn you that you have scanned the same gift card twice.

        • If a staff member scanned one gift card and then sneakily swapped it out for a gift card that was not scanned and handed that to you, it means the gift card you purchased is not the same as the one you possess. (I only mention this, because a Coles staff member told me someone at their store was once fired for doing this.)

          dude, thanks a lot, you are on fire.

      • +2

        07 5660 6022 is the only number you ever need to call, but make sure your cards loads are approved before calling.

  • So I bought 5 *$100 gift card yesterday. Does it mean i should collect 10,000 fly buy points from this transaction yesterday? Can someone please help me to work it out? Thank you!!!!

    • +1

      Yes but it will only show in your app around 4.30pm today

  • I bought 5*$100 gift cards on Monday and just realised only the 525 points got posted, not the bonus points. Anyone experiencing a similar issue? Not sure if it's just a delay or I need to contact support

    • i had the same issues. they told me you have to buy one $100 and one $250 together to receive the bonus point. I can not refund this card neither.

      • I bought 24 $100 and got all the bonus pts, didn't buy any $250 cards.
        Try again and get a different CS rep.

        • Isn’t the bonus capped at 10000 points and 5 cards per account ?

          • @SydOzber: Yes, thats why people have extra accounts. Especially as buying these gift cards increases those flybuys spend x offers

            • @attalisie: Oh yes - I do have multiple accounts as well. It sounded from the comment that 24 cards were purchased and all bonus points were credited to single account

              • @SydOzber: Ah ok, that would be good if they allowed more per card

          • +2

            @SydOzber: Large family… grin.

            • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Multiples of 4, bought with shopback supermarket visa gift cards? :)

              • @attalisie: Unfortunately not, had 1300 worth of supermarket cards/tcn grocery cards ready to go, inceptioned 5 with SB, 3 more with tcn.

                • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Thats still pretty good! I only got 8 with inception. Need to prepare more SB cards for the next round. Surely theres going to be 10% of Coles MC GC coming up soon. We missed October

              • @attalisie: Now 5 a week are being used to get the SB supermarket visas in preparation for the next round.

                • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Haha nice you beat me to it! Im going to do the same

                  • @attalisie: I've been inceptioning the same cards over time for quite some time now, just load everything I get into SB 5 a week, each round I end up with more than I started with(pay activation fees with zip pay + buy a coupla more).
                    Started this round with 1300 of SB/TCN's enough for 13, will have 1600 for the next round + should be able to inception at least another 8 next time.

                    • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Thats awesome. I'm still learning how to do all that stuff. I had previously used 2x $250 MCGC to buy 2 x $200 shopping visa card on SB that were ready to go. I then did that again so in total was able to get 8 $100 Coles MCGCs

                      • @attalisie: If you prefer to inception the remaining 50 on those cards, you can get $50 TCN grocery cards.

                        • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Ok thanks! Do you pay for the cards at a manned checkout? I was using self-serve and I can't split payment. I was putting in $10 cash then paying rest by visa GC

                          • @attalisie: Vanillas, buy the grocery cards straight up, Coles MC's, add to PP and select PP/Coles MC to pay.

                            Yes I only use manned checkouts, even the staff cannot over ride the splitting payment issue of self serve.

                            • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Thanks so much for the help! I don't get Vanillas in my state. I do add Coles MC to PP for prezzee and ww GC's. Recently learnt how to split payment on PP too for cards that didn't have enough balance. I always saw people say going to manned is at the discretion of the worker if they will split so I just went to self-serve.

                              • @attalisie: Only once had issue splitting payment, a few months back, I queried her telling her the machine/POS allows it, she said she needed to speak to someone, another person came over, bit of back and forth and then they did it for me.

                                • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: Do you say split with credit card? or do you need to say visa? Thats good they did it for you in the end and you knew what you were doing.

                                  • @attalisie: I never mention cc or visa, I just say I need to split the payment, tell them the amounts 1 at a time.

                                    • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: OK thanks. I'll give it a go next round! Will get the TCN grocery in preparation :)

                                      • @attalisie: Tcn grocery, never seen a discount, just no fees, it's a fallback to continue inception, and they are pretty quick to hit you with a cooldown period but it doesn't seem to last a week.
                                        Prep em all in SB for 2.2% discount, and fallback on TCN when you can no longer add Coles MC's to SB during the promotion.
