Plastic jungle AA Cards
« on: May 14, 2011, 11:35:21 PM »
Can anyone help?
I sold them for AA virtual gift cards, which AA have confirmed that have all been retrieved, yet on their site reads "awaiting gift card." Upon contacting them and explaining that this was a virtual gift card, they say that they are only accepting non-virtual cards.
What is that suppose to mean??? they use it and say they are not accepting it.

what to do? :-\ :-\ :-\

Thanks.

AA has been cancelling (and refunding) the virtual gift cards when you buy multiple in a day for fraud reasons.

PJ has stopped buying them because people are selling them GCs and then AA cancels them.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

This is probably a miscommunication.  Make sure they understand that you are saying that u already sold them the gc's during a time when they were accepting virtual gc's They are a very reliable company. I have personally sold them thousands of dollars in gift cards and never had a problem..

Or check with AA to see if they canceled the GC.

Would they say
Your $50.00 American Airlines gift card for Nitantnel bought on May 02, 2011 has been retrieved from AA.com. ?

Is there a reason you haven't called AA to see what's the status of your GC?

So, I shouldn't buy 4 $50 AA GC in one day (to get my Amex $200 airline credit)?
