Got completely scammed
Quite embarrassing to gift one of these cards to someone who goes on to get it declined by the cashier. You look up the card # online and "We are unable to process your request at this time. If you continue to receive this error, please contact Cardholder services by calling the number on the back of your card". OK! Did just that. Called the number. You enter all the information.. did this four times, only for them to drop the call after three minutes flat. :(<br /><br />Ordered a same day rush delivery from a VISA Giftcard to make it up to him - and there were 0 problems. Shameless business tactics. Apparently MC wants you to "activate" these, yet intentionally makes it so you cannot do so - by internet nor phone. So, essentially a scam from a major credit card company where you have no recourse, waste $25-50 (depending on your option) then embarrass the recipient. Do yourself a favor and either give good ol' CA$H or a VISA gift card.<br /><br />Hope others heed this warning this coming Christmas season!! :D
