Gift card showing to be invalid

Howdy fellow Verizon people.  I ordered a $25 gift card that arrived quickly but when I go to redeem it or check the balance I am being told the card is invalid.  I've searched previous threads on this and it seems like this does happen from time to time.  I do not want to spend hours trying to get this rectified though so I am hoping a Verizon agent will reach out to me directly to get this fixed otherwise I will just call American Express and initiate a dispute / chargeback.

Anyone else have luck rectifying this issue?

TheSluce, I'm sorry you've been having trouble with the gift card. To confirm, the site you've been using to check the status/balance of the card is this one: https://www.verizon.com/od/products/gift-card-balance/#/

 

If not, could you please check the balance using this card, and share what you've found.

Hi John,

That is the site I used.  Card is still showing to be invalid.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Geo,

I already tried calling customer support and was transferred to 4 different people, none of whom could help me.  On the last, "I need to transfer you ..." I just hung up.  I don't want to invest hours into fixing a $25 gift card when I can just dispute the transaction with Amex and they will deal with it for me.

Thanks,

Paul
