anyone get a weird number of points credited for buying 5 cards? I.e. more than 5000?

5596, fees included?

Yep. Haven't been able to reconcile it though. Happy for the extra 596 points though.

1120 for one card. I suspect it will be fixed in thr coming hours/days.

ahh i worked it out.

1000 points for $50 card is 20 points per $1. they must have also applied 20pp$ to the $5.95.

Me too, no complaints.

I doubt $1.8 would excite normal people

Implying that we are not normal. Yes you are probably right.

Any idea if there is 2000 bonus points for the $100 Perfect Gift Card? Or the offer is simply for the $50 variant?

Whats the best way to play this?
Strange. I scanned 4 x $50 cards and got a $20 credit for my next shop.
Then i went to buy my final $50 card, then it applied the $20 credit, but never gave me any extra points for the last $50 card!
Was there a mistake or did I play this wrong?

 

[ermen]

Correction.
I did get the points. But it is 1000 orphaned there...

Somebody on OzBargain just posted saying "The 5 cards limit applied on combined purchase of EFTPOS and Ultimate Kids.i.e if you buy 3 Ultimate Kids you can only get points on 2 Eftpos."

Implying that we are not normal. Yes you are probably right.

We certainly are one unique breed

Well I stuffed around and tried the $100 for the team but they have locked it down to $50 card and got the same result as ermen....
Now will I get more on family card numbers???
Have to get my egift first.
Plenty of cards in store!

I purchased 4 cards today for $223.80

I have received 4476 pts. How does the math work on this.

1000ptsx4 +223 =4273 is my calculation

Purchased 5 EFTPOS Cards thinking I could use them for ATO. Got home to burn them and .... #stupid

Just pay at post office, say eftpos, make sure you hide the top of the card

new to the only1 visa cards.

Went to buy 10x $100 at the self serve and it halted when I scanned in the 5th one.
attendant comes over, takes all but 4 off me and says thats all I can buy.
I say, oh is that per transaction, I can do separate transactions no issues.
she was quite rude and said 4 and thats it no more.
I even offered if its some security measure take down my DL details but nope

is that right?

Each store imposes it's own policy. In future just scan 4 at a time

Suggest you do some reading in this thread. I would never purchase 10 at a time. System is programmed not to accept this number. Buying 4 at a time has always been my modus operandi. It may be slow but you wont attract any attention.

This is not correct.

AFAIK, the self-serve terminals have a maximum of $500. I buy 4 & pay, then another 4, etc. No problems at my local store, although I try to be discreet.
