Will they freeze your account if you apply with an Israel ISP? What do you do with 30 $2 Amazon gift cards if you don't want to buy anything on Amazon?

Don't buy them if you're not gonna use them.

-1. That's spending $60 to get back $300, even if you don't use them it's worth it. And I'm sure you can find something to use the gift cards for so they don't go to waste.

There are cheaper ways to make thirty transactions. It's only free if you would be spending $60 on Amazon anyways.

Most are not as easy especially if you're in Israel as it seems from the op's post that he is.

You don't need to buy $2 GC's; $0.50 ones are good too. Total: $15.

I didn't get my bonus either. I did $0.50 amazon gift card loads, but they then told me the purchases needed to be $2 or more.

They told me today that that was for an old promo; now it's not necessary.

[tjak]

I asked 2 reps. First said there is a $2 minimum. The second said that was a previous offer, and the minimum doesn't apply anymore. DOC also said limit doesn't apply anymore. Furthermore, the material they sent in the mail had no mention of any minimum. My money is on no minimum

For anyone who was still worried about this, I got it in writing....
