This Nordstrom gift card: Nordstrom pointed to Kroger, and Kroger pointed back
A sealed $400 Nordstrom card was used online three days after it was bought. Nordstrom said go to Kroger. Kroger said go to Nordstrom. Support could see an online purchase on the third day and would not give the shipping address. In another reply, support said the card had fifteen to twenty balance checks a day.
Those fifteen to twenty checks are something support said about this card. They are not a method, and they are not “a different checker would not show up.” What GiftVeri reads is this run’s balance. It does not read the shipping address on that order. The path from purchase to spend for this card stays on the US Nordstrom page.
Target and Nike gift cards: who can see where it was spent
A Target card was empty at first use. The call to the number on the back of the card found the money already in someone else’s Circle account, and a replacement card came later. Seeing “whose account” and seeing “the balance is 0” are not the same layer of information.
A $350 Nike card, with the giver still holding the receipt. Support could see that the card once held $350, and could see an online order the holder did not place, and would not share the order. A balance check matches the balance now. It does not match who placed that order. A Canadian card reported as not found on the US page is a separate case, on the US Nike page.
Before the buyer got home
An Apple card bought at Target was used up before the buyer got home. The gap is too short to be “I noticed after a few days.” What to line up is the minutes after leaving the register: whether the receipt is there, whether the sleeve and the card are the same piece, and whether anyone will say where it was spent. The Nordstrom card used online three days later is about those three days before it was opened, not these minutes.
