the gift card terms and conditions don't say THAT!
I bought this gift card for my wife specifically so that she could renew her subscription to amazon prime.  When she got it (late, I might add)she was excited... until she went to renew her prime subscription and it said that she could not use the gift card toward her prime subscription...  It doesn't say anything in the terms and conditions about not being usable for prime subscription renewals.
