Vanilla card with Google pay
It's been over a year but I had trouble with vanilla. I got it to work with a burner Gmail account when I linked the vanilla card to the Google pay account attached to the email. I think I had to do it on the app not the website. Worth trying if you already have the card and I would be curious to know if it works still.
[QUOTE=BostonHoops;6589222]I tried a Vanilla Gift Visa today. And it's not working. Even when calling W8 Tech. Who now has an India call center. The merchant is blocked by the bank, who I called. They
said they will ask to lift it but they don't know when.
Anyone have another gift card (online preferred) that has worked recently?
Thanks![/QUOTE]
Vanilla to Google Play to stuck
I got Vanilla to work like 4 months ago, by calling the US Call center, which took many calls because they seemed to not be open often. But now the Call Center answers right away, but can't get vanilla to work. I think maybe they were processing inside the US before and now are outside. Idk.
Anyway, I tried to add the Vanilla to an android google play phone, but that didn't work either. So I used the vanilla to buy a Google play card on Amazon, which worked. But then when I try to add the google play gift card to my google play account on android or the web, it says "We need more info to redeem your gift card. Send us details." So I did and a day later they replied and said "According to our system, your Google Account or one of the Play Gift Cards you submitted isn't eligible for appeal or has already been submitted. Please wait for the appeal decision to submit again."
I have no idea why that is. As I've never bought a google play card before. I now see in the Amazon review others have the same problem. So I contacted Amazon and I'm trying to get my $100 back. They have some gift card problem team, which is supposed to get back to me in a day or two.
Guess I should have gone to a store to get the google card, or tried the blackhawk card some others have had luck with.
Annoying.

This Topic reminds me of something very very funny.
Their used to be these people going around on that old Boston Raven Chat Line long time ago doing Vanilla card scams. And I think stupid idiots would actually fall for it too!? Because they kept coming on. Him and a lady who's prob like his wife. They had like a Southern country accent and would always leave Greetings on the chat line about, "Vanilla dot card guys, I'll turn your 200 into $2,000. Go to your local Walmart and I can add a extra 0 at the end, put $200 on there and I'll add a extra 0 to make it $2,000, I do this from my computer I know how to trick the System and add a 0 at the end. " Yada Yada Yada, I don't remember rest of the garbage they used to say, LMAO. Yeah more like turn your Vanilla card into a 0, wipe your funds from ya. Hahaha.
