So it appears they accounted for churning use case, which implies they allowed gift cards to be included in the promotion.thesick wrote: ↑ Doesn’t work. Tried it as an experiment 15 days later no post of rebate. Contacted MC n shell they stated prepaids won’t be getting rebates. Something along the lines of Theirs a unique identifier before or after In the transaction ID when it hits their system showings it’s a prepaid.

I’ve found PSN cards at multiple Shell gas stations in Mississauga. I’m sure they’re in all of them. I’m just wondering if this 10% off deal with MCs at Shell applied to PSN cards is worth it or if I should wait for another dealdotsandpixels wrote: ↑ Which location?

i had gotten my first ten percent cash back on my first gas purchase the second day after promo was announced. Got it three days later.
I had gone ahead to try a fifty dollar gift card purchase this past Sunday. But still no cash back. Are you guys still getting your cash back on gift card purchases?

I think i read somewhere that maximum cash back per day is $20 so does that mean maximum you can spend each day is $200? Or that's wrong? How are people buying $1K of gift cards etc. Is it maximum per transaction? Can anyone clarify, thanks!

You have a Stack card?
Confused though because it says vanilla card, so is it pre-paid and you got "double" rebate?

Yes. Several people are still waiting, including me.
Bought $50+ gas with Tangerine MC on Fri 27 Sept, which posted Tue 1 Oct, but no rebate yet.
Feeling impatient but not worried since promo T&Cs say it should appear 3 - 5 business days after it's posted (i.e. Fri 4 Oct - Tue 8 Oct).
