Gyft, anybody?

Hey guys, I have been ghosting on the forum for a few weeks now but since it is the summer I thought I'd stop ghosting and interact with the forum more.

I will cut straight to the chase, have any of you attempted to refund Gyft before?

I have heard of this website many times and it has been sitting in the back of my mind for a while know trying to think of methods to potentially get them but I have not been able to think of something super intricate that will guarantee it. If anyone has tips/tricks I would more than gladly listen to them and potentially use them in my own ways (which I would share results and methods afterwards as well).

Other than that, it is nice to be back and I hope to be more active over the summer vacation. Cheers!

I manage to do it one time unintentionally, I had a prepaid visa gift card link to my paypal after buying it from LBC, bought $500 of gift cards from gyft. And paypal said something about the card being unauthorized or some crap, so they chargeback the payment sent to gyft and I left the card for a day just to see if it'll get closed since people were telling me on LBC that the prepaid cards are carded, but after a day, the refunded balance was still in the card, so I spent it. So yes it's possible to refund it by having the card unauthorized, but it got my paypal permanent limited and I couldn't dispute the limitation, I even tried calling paypal support, all I got was the rep calling me a criminal, carder, shit like that. I got $500 in best buy from gyft and $500 in visa prepaid card.

This happen around two years ago, gyft never bothered to contact me about this issue, but they did get my account banned.

P.S, I had $2,000 in prepaid cards that I use on gyft and all four $500's cards got refunded.

I see you're from Canada, Gyft doesn't work in our great country unfortunately so you'd need a vpn.

Ah USA locked huh? Had no idea Canadians did not have access to this website. The charging back through Paypal was what I was thinking at first and probably what I will be doing if I go through with a VPN.

If this thread gets updated then that means I got around to trying a refund, if not, let the thread wither and die.

"They never replied back...." I know that feeling all too well my friend.

Gyft checks card balances pretty sure.

Hmm, if they do that I think I might stay away from the website then, thanks for letting me know @strombone!

Maybe an experienced refunder can do it for you, they all have their little tips

I use to use Gfty a lot, but they started to crack down and started to ask for more info. I sure it would work, if you are well versed in fucking companies over haha.

Yeah, same.
Used to use Gyft to buy Amazon cards.

Doesn't work unless you want to mess up your PayPal. I've tried and they don't budge.

Seems like gyft was screwed over in the past and is a lot more difficult now. I might try this site.

Gyft, anybody?
