I will never use gift cards again. Fuck this.

Tried using Amazon Gift Cards and now Steam... In the end I had to open a ticket with steam support.

If you think gift cards are "maybe" something like cash....

I can guarantee you it is NOTHING like cash...

Worst case scenario:

Get banned by Apple (if you are stupid enough to trust apple)...

"Apple blocks dev from all accounts after he tries to redeem bad gift card

Paris Buttfield-Addison literally wrote books on Swift"

Gift cards are the plague.
