Did anybody notice the limit of 3 AMEX branded prepaid cards? Seems like it would be better to do 3x$26 transactions instead of a single $75 transaction.
does the GC reduce if not used over a certain period of time, like a non use processing fee? edit i see the 6 months on the movie card, but what about the subway card

Wouldn't it be better to get 3 $25 cards and get 3 $10 movie cards?
Order 1 card, pay 1.49 processing and ship fee. Once you get it then do two adds of $25 to that card to get the additional 2 $10 movie cards, should only be a .50 processing fee, no shipping.

Thanks OP!
Strange, but after the initial page, there's no mention of the movie card... Just a confirmation of order.

It's the same either way, as shipping is .99 whether you buy 1 card or 3.

I'd like to know if that works also. On the other hand, all my AMEX gift cards are $25 face value, and since buying a $25 Subway card actually costs $26.49, I think I'm stuck. I doubt their system will let you enter two separate card numbers for payment.
why not just start with a cheap gift card purchased @ face value (at a subway store, or WalMart that sells subway cards), reload it 3x using the link provided for $75 total you'd get 3 $10 movie cards.. and not pay the processing/shipping.
edit: you don't even have to purchase the starter card, most subways give out a free subway points card which can be reloaded using OP's link

I couldn't make the reload work. I tried to register a card and it comes back with a message to activate it. Obviously, no link to activate my card. I did not find a method to reload either.

I haven't been to a movie theater in about that same time. Would a $10 "movie card" even cover popcorn and soda these days?
barely. I still sneak my own water in rather than paying $4.50 for the teeny bottles they sell. That's why I ask for a (free) cup of ice And half-way through the movie some of it has melted and I get to drink it... free cold water!
Unless I missed something in the fine print, I would think they would make you buy them in 3 different transaction. It might cost a dollar or so extra to do it this way, but you're out $10 if they only give you a $20 card and not 3 $10 cards as you expect.

Do they charge any fees to reload?
And has anyone confirmed for sure that they've gotten the $10 bonus movie card for a $25 reload?
