Mine is still researching as well. Not a Biggy if they cancel.
researching is bad means a human needs to push it through.

what is the question??

I am talking from experience.
anyone that used a coupon(or rewards) on this order your order will show researching then eventually cancelled.

This order specifically or GC's in general? Cuz I've used coupons on GC's many times w/o an issue...

live chat or regular cs can not do anything only the credit department can clear it. they realize everything....

I tried to use rewards on gc's in-store just yesterday, and it didnt't work. Not even on the $7 fee.

I didn't do to many. I did 5 orders with 5 email address.
Same billing name changed up the shipping name a little bit. Used one card 4 times and another card once.
3 orders are researching and 2 are being processed.
No calls or anything as of yet.


Good night

2 of my orders that were in 'researching' status yesterday changed to 'processing'. I did not call or receive call. It looks promising  :).

I received a message to call Staples as well, issue is when you order gift cards they want to verify it with the bank that the card is good.
They had a wrong number for the ink card, I gave them the number on the back of the card he called chase and verified with them that the account is good and released the order.
