On the podcast, you guys referenced meeting spend on large SUB of $20-30k by buying GoC gift cards. Isn’t there a chance that AMEX in particular would claw back the SUB by buying gift cards? Or where you referring to other card issuers?
Please expand on paying off student debts with these gift cards. Thanks!
Was the online version with no fees taken away? Or are you calculating the fees being a wash because of the online cashback for giftcard.com?
That only lasted for a day or so, then giftcards.com ‘fixed the glitch’
That died quick
@Nick Reyes, do you use the NewYork state program? I cant find any info on the NYSaves.com site saying they accept “Gift of College” gift cards.
