Cornelius said:I just stopped by Publix at lunch to buy a Shell gift card. They were not able to activate it. The manager said the problem was system wide, but would hopefully be fixed soon.
 They are indeed having issues, I tried to buy 4 but when they tried to activate the 4th one the system stopped responding. I did get 3 out of it though so I will be back after work to try for a few more... |

So there is no limit on the number of cards you can buy?
Is one coupon needed for each card, or can you get several cards just using the single coupon? 20% off gas is pretty hot! That's ~$0.54 off a gallon at current prices in South FL. I wonder if these have the inactivity fees that some cards have if you don't use them for awhile.... |

When I called to check the balance, it seems BP had updated their policy to remove inactivity fees and that if your card mentions it to ignore it. This was from late last year / early this year. Unsure of Shell. |

I went into a store at 10:30 this morning, and they couldn't activate any cards. Went back to same store at 2:30 to buy five cards. The guest services manager had no trouble activating the cards, but she told me they had just received a communication that told them to limit purchases to two cards, and that's all she'd sell me. I told her I'd just come back tomorrow, or later in the week, and she told me just to go through another cashier's line. I did, and purchased two more. I think we'd better get these while we can, before they set to many after-the-fact restrictions. |

BTW, if you haven't bought your card yet, you might hurry up. The manager at my Publix said that they already had notifications that fleets were sending out people to buy them out. They didn't expect to have any left past tomorrow. |

I've got a feeling that stockers will be finding cards hidden all over the store. |
