1.0 out of 5 stars Can Not Edit Auto Reload
Reviewed in Canada on September 5, 2024
Reload type: One Time ReloadVerified Purchase
I like automatically adding money weekly but if I want to skip a week the only way to do it is to delete the auto-reload and start a new one. There is no way to edit your auto-reload settings. Clicking on the "Modify your setting" link just takes you to the "Amazon.ca Gift Card Balance Reload" page. It's been like this for months.

Also, when you set up an auto-reload on a current day, it starts on the day before the date you pick. That means if you want your auto-reload to start on a Monday, you have to pick Tuesday for your start date.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hard to "MODIFY" your original auto reload!

Reload type: Scheduled Auto-ReloadVerified Purchase
Not easy to cancel. I tried to modify my auto reload to come out on a different date because even though I chose a Friday for it to come out when I got the email that it was set up it showed it was coming out on Thursday. I hit cancel and tried again to set up the correct date and now it takes it out on both days!!! Not sure how to get rid of the wrong one because if you select "modify" it sets up a new withdrawal. Not impressed with it.

1.0 out of 5 stars What RU thinking?

Raising the minimum gift card balance reload to $5 is a bizarre business decision. The ability of customers to get rid of small balances on myriad gift cards was a win-win-win situation for sellers, customers and ultimately, amazon. If we needed [another] reason to ditch amazon in favor of going back to real stores - and helping build back our local businesses - this is it. Way to go amazon - you're so clever!

1.0 out of 5 stars Why would you change the minimum balance to $5?

Like you don't already make enough money. I would always take all my prepaid visas that had random small amounts on them, and I would add them to my Amazon account. Since you changed the minimum reload balance to $5, I can no longer do that, and you will no longer be receiving most of my business.

Like others have commented, I reload my Amazon gift card with whatever I have left on used pre-paid credit cards. Sometimes it’s over $5. But sometimes it’s not. Kind of a low blow on Amazon’s side

So I suggest putting money on the Amazon because then it takes money right away rather than wait three days to come after you’ve spent the money

Used to be a good way to get excess money of off gift cards and use them on Amazon, until they changed the price to a minimum of $5. Now will probably never ever use this.
