A couple of months ago I used a Tech Head card on Amazon Australia.
Now I wanted to use a different Tech Head card there, but when I try to add it as a payment method on Amazon it gives the error message "Incorrect card details or card not supported."
Has anyone been able to use one of those cards on Amazon recently?
Thanks
Hi @Dacs
I had a similar issue and I ended up using the tech head gift card to purchase a discounted Amazon gift card through HBF rewards (uses Signature Reward portal). I heard reports of people being able to purchase gift cards from ShopBack with Tech Head gift cards too (including Amazon). Hope that helps
I tried purchasing a Shopback giftcard with a Tech Head card today and it got declined.
Yeah, I had the same. Also couldn't buy gifts through the HCF private health portal
If you are a Good Guys Gold Service Extra member you can swap Tech Head to another gift card through their gift card purchase portal
Just tried to buy a WW gift card through the Good Guys Gold Service Extra site and it failed to go through.
interesting you say that, I had issues two nights ago as well, thought it was my card at the time.
Why is Special being difficult by removing certain merchants or MCCs? What's in it for them?
Why is Special being difficult
They're just being special.
I strongly suspect Special has blocked Amazon AU as a merchant on the Tech Head gift card.
A whole bunch of AMEX cardholders were using Tech Head gift cards at Amazon AU earlier this month when a Special cashback offer went live, and then it stopped working. The first report of transactions at Amazon AU being declined was late on 10 April, and if you scroll through that deal, you will see many more similar reports.
