How to avoid inadvertent cash advances
Some card providers classify gift card purchases as cash advances. You want to avoid cash advances as much as you can, because they’re typically very expensive.
To get around this, ask your credit card provider to set your cash advance limit to $0. Once you do this, any transaction coded as a cash advance will be declined.
I has bought 14k in gift cards from giftcards.com. I carried them on my trip to Florida recently. Used a few of my gift cards.. Used a few to transfer the funds via venmo. After transfer I destroyed the cards and threw them. Venmo has frozen my account and has transferred the money back to the card that I had used.. Is there a way to get that card details back I have lost $3000…. Please help… Don’t have more details.. Will giftcards. Com be of any help
Hi Mike,
Thanks for leaving a question on finder.
It would be best if you can clarify your question with giftcards.com. They might ask you for the email you have previously used for their website so they can pull up your account. I’m sure if you can give them the info they need, they might be able to help you with your concern.
Cheers,
Joel
