Recent experience on when $200 disney gift card from Visa arrives?

[gottalovepluto]

Did the Disney premiere Visa $200 offer. Completed the spend on 8/17, statement closed 8/21. Any idea when the gift card will show up?

The $200 gift card was delivered to me about 2 weeks after completing the spend requirements. I think that's the normal amount of time it takes for this specific offer.

All of ours showed up very quickly, after the spend, statement didn't even have to close first.

Ooh! Yay! I should get them before my trip in a month!

Charged the mandatory $500.00 + $50.00 for the additional card holder.
The two gifts cards were received 2 weeks later and statement was received only last week.
Did not expect so quick.

I received mine last week and I made my first purchase on 7/24/17. It took about 3 weeks

I got a statement credit for $200

This is reassuring! It's been about 3 weeks for me and I haven't received it yet. Hoping it comes soon!

We completed our spend on 8/3 and have not received the gift card yet. Make some feel better hearing others had to wait longer.

@bigjon1805 Keeping my fingers crossed that both of ours arrive soon! Could you please post here when yours does? I'll do the same and hopefully it'll give people in the same boat as us a better idea how long it takes!

 

[bigjon1805]

Will Do! Still waiting!

@bigjon1805 Me too! I'm starting to get antsy...

 

[Maotown]

I just got mine today! I double-checked my statement and it took a little over a month between me completing my spend and when they actually mailed the gift card out. So count me as someone who made it on the slower track.

@bigjon1805 hope yours comes soon!

I'm currently waiting on my $200 gift card from the regular (no annual fee) version. First statement closes tomorrow so hoping that will trigger it! Can't beat a free $200!!

When it comes I'll add info to this thread for another datapoint on timing.

I hope ours comes soon. I already got and paid the bill with the required spend amount. We leave for our trip in 28 days. I am starting to get antsy.

Has anyone tried calling to check on it?

My mom's gift card took ages to arrive. I think it was more than a month from when she met the spend and the statement posted. It still had not arrived when we left for our Disneyland trip but luckily my sister was housesitting and checking the mail. The card came the second day of our trip so she read the numbers off to me so I could load it onto a card I had saved on the disneygiftcard.com site. Worked great and we were so happy to use it for meals and souvies for the rest of our trip!

I called last week. The CS agent, while very nice, wasn't of much help. She told me that she couldn't tell if/when the gift card had been issued, and wasn't able to transfer me to a department that did know that information. She did say that since the fine print says that it can take up to 6-8 weeks to arrive, they wouldn't be able to escalate it to their marketing department until the 6 week mark (which would have been early next week for me.)

I hope so too, but sadly we leave tomorrow to take on Irma! We will follow the advice about putting a gift card on the Disney gift card site. What does thr package look like that the gift card comes in?

It's in a plain envelope with your address showing through a clear window. The return address is "Rewards Center" in TN.

Safe travels to you!

Applied: 8/7/17
Met $500 Spend: 8/16/17
Statement Closed: 9/7/17
Gift Card Received 9/29/17
There was a letter with the gift card dated 8/21/17...not sure how it took 5 weeks to mail this letter, but there you go folks!

Gift Card was received 44 days (just over 6 weeks) after meeting the minimum spend, Roughly 3 weeks after my statement closed.
