Anyone knows if the restaurant Melba would count towards this offer? Could take the family for some half price buffet dining

 

[Pleb Status]

for me anyway, HN deal is working out similar to that HCF one...

Nothing will beat the HCF offer. . . Spend $3 get $100 back, that offer will go down in AFF history.

Such a great offer...never enough cards though

Has anyone had any luck splitting payment at HN to reduce the effect of the activation fee? (i.e. load 3x $300)

Activation fee? Please explain?

If getting HN to accept a split payment is a problem then just buy 3 GCs. Balgowlah store are usually very accommodating.

Considering using it for prepaid Visas. I can usually source most HN products cheaper. The iphone I was looking at yesterday was $100 less on Kogan

 

[unfunkable]

Best use is getting prepaid visa's and if you own a business, running through your eftpos machine to get the $300 back as cash

For those that don't have their own EFTPOS machine, this proposal from Ozbargain seems a winner:

I feel like a babe in the woods next to you Ralph.
Is Vpay an online version card?

Yes.

https://www.vpay.com.au/

Online VISA pay. No physical card. Need to register and costs $5.50.

I haven't used them before. But it looks good to go.

The Harvey Norman I visited yesterday had at least 500 of these cards (just a cardboard slip).

Can you share which HN store please ? I went to HN liverpool yesterday, they have this VPAY but it doesnt allow to purchase at checkout.

 

[andye]

Great link. I'll be looking to see if they make an appearance elsewhere

 

[Dr Ralph]

Cambelltown, NSW.

Be warned that the woman on the checkout is already 'over' the AMEX phenomenon.

Not sure what you mean by this. If you can't pay for them at the checkout then how do you buy them in the store?

 

[bbqwer]

As soon as the checkout lady scan the vpay barcode, error code pop up from computer ( ZERO quantity ), which wont allow people to purchase.

Seems strange. Did you check the expiry date?

 

[Steady]

I feel like these may be stupid questions but I am slow......

If going down the vpay route on the HN offer, why does it require a Coles prepaid reloadable MasterCard? If you can transfer money to that MasterCard, why couldn't you transfer to say a bank account or other debit card like the Citi etc.

The link says using vpay saves $0.45 compared to the prepaid Visa GC - why not simply get a prepaid visa GC and withdraw cash from an atm?
