Gift card no good

So i got a 200 dollar ebay card.

Half of which i used.

I got offers and i'm willing to pay. Only problem is that my card with $107 dollars is no good.

It's been three days since i last tried and it gives me some excuse

"Looks like you've used a lot of gift cards lately. You can redeem more gift cards in a couple days."

Don't give me that. Don't give me that.

I'm worried If i get another ebay card with any amount on it it'll say the same **bleep**.

I need answers to solve this problem.

Is there not a phone # on the back of the card that you can call and check on this?

Or an internet site where you can check the card balance?

And i'm not going to even attempt to call them because Auto messages by robots.

"Looks like you've used a lot of gift cards lately. You can redeem more gift cards in a couple days."

 

That is not indicating that your gift card is no good. That is indicating that you have reached a limit to the number of gift cards you can use or the amount of gift card spending you can do in a day or in a month.

 

In the US, I believe the limit is typically $1000 per day or $1500 per calendar month. Up to four gift cards can be used per transaction, less any other coupons or codes.

 

I'm worried If i get another ebay card with any amount on it it'll say the same

 

Yes, that is likely the case until you are no longer at that limit.

I don't think there's a way for you to remove the limit. Can you pay for the accepted offers using another method? If not, maybe contact your seller(s) and ask that they cancel your order(s)?

 

The first suggestion is optimal, of course... the second might keep you from getting Unpaid Item strikes.

You cannot, except by waiting. It is simply part of how gift cards are designed to work on eBay.

How does one accept an offer by accident?

By thinking their gift card still works. But then runs into this problem.
