Also, Allstate is running a sweepstake with a prize of $1,500 in Carnival gift cards. 50 points per entry, limit 200 entries a day. Sweepstakes doesnt close until 7/31. Its a super longshot, but might be worth a gamble for those with tons of points. Thanks for the info. Good luck to everyone! 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grantbob Posted July 21, 2021 #3930 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) I have plenty of points for the cards that I wanted and a valid credit card. However, it would not process my order but posted three holds on my card. I called Allstate and they mentioned that they are having a problem with their website and that they have had several people with a similar problem. Just throwing that out there if anyone is needing to purchase gift cards soon. Edited July 21, 2021 by grantbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they say if we need to do anything, or will those eventually just drop off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantbob Posted July 21, 2021 #3933 Share Posted July 21, 2021 They told me that they are temporary holds and if you did not get a confirmation email that the cards were purchased they will drop off in 3-5 business days. They are supposed to be looking into the problem on their end and are going to reach out when they figure out what's going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the holds are still on my CC, but the $500 e-gift cards are no longer available. Guess I missed out on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also tried twice at the $500 amount and it wouldn't process so I tried the $1000 and it went through just fine. I realize the higher amount isn't always an option, financially, but they were available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantbob Posted July 23, 2021 #3939 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I think the issue was they were out of the E-cards. I just went and ordered the physical cards and it went through just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdogsmm Posted July 23, 2021 #3940 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I ordered a couple of cards and received a confirmation on July 14th and they haven't arrived yet. I don't remember it taking this long before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took about a week, but the UPS guy just placed the envelope in between my storm and front door and did not get my signature. Same thing happened a few months ago when I got 30 of the 100 cards for Princess @ 15% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to remove that authorization if you want to go back to signature required. I don't know if it expires for UPS like it does for USPS.

UPS said signature and ID would be required for delivery, so I took the day off just so I could be home for it. He ended up dropping it off at the front porch. Didn't knock or anything. From now on I'll have it delivered to the UPS Store and go pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always wanted a signature from UPS with any delivery of cards valued at 500+. My last two deliveries they rang my doorbell and then they just left it and took off. Luckily I was home both times.

Also keep in mind they now come from another distributor. It is possible they do not require a signature. My last 4, 1 $1000, 3 $500, in May/June were all left in an out of sight spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
