What happened to GiveFun.com? Am I crazy ..... I can't find the link. :( Please don't tell me they are no longer a merchant. I was going to place a fairly large order in the next day or two.

They killed their affiliate program. :( In fact, I think their whole site was bought out by another company.

Aack!!! That's what I get for waiting for the new quarter to start. That was going to be an easy $10 in SR rewards. Oh well ..... maybe you will find someplace else in the future where we can purchase Disney GCs.

It was great while it lasted - LOL.

I was waiting too but I'm glad I didn't order if they are "gone" as I'm having one hell of a time fighting a charge with Amex from Bluefly and I'd hate to have had to fight this one too.

It is too bad that GiveFun is gone...I had good luck with them...easy way to make a few bucks...I was hoping to earn more.

What happened with Bluefly??

My package was "delivered" by DHL to me (when I was not home - ie left on my doorstep) and one of my lovely neighbors stole it. So now I'm fighting them to get a refund. DHL insured the package and took fault but bluefly will not give me the refund and I can't get the refund through DHL since i"m not the shipper. So its being disputed through AMEX since DHL took fault and Bluefly told me a few times they'd refund me and now nothing... I'm NEVER ordering from them again.

They also have a very fine print policy where they will block you from shopping if you are a heavy returner. Well they are online only and carry clothing a few seasons old. Its not like you can go to the store and try the stuff on first.

Me too, Lea Ann. I was just getting ready to order a GC for $1500 to pay off my trip, and another to pay for the cruise. But I'm glad that I don't have $$ tied up with them if the company is on shaky ground -- like I need that worry! And this way I'll just use my visa and get the 6 months no interest, which I wouldn't have gotten buying gift cards. Silver lining? LOL. Seriously I SOOOOO wish Disney would let us get credit for buying gift cards again :(

It would be scary to have that much money tied up with a company that is changing ownership suddenly...even though you are missing out on the rewards, it is probably for the best. I hope a similar company can be added to replace GiveFun. I was hoping to use them to buy some holiday gifts this year!

disney gift cards or other gift cards? I thought giftcertificates.com was an option but I know they don't have DGC's

There is GiftCertificates.com in the shopping section, but they don't have disney...

I was waiting also for this quarter, but as stated, am kind of glad I waited now.

Does that mean I won't get credit for my purchase on the 25th of Sept? :( Poop. I did receive my gift cards so that is a minor comfort.

Oh that seriously SUCKS...I am amazed at the packages that they will just leave at someones door...plain stupid and then somehow it is our fault.

Hope that it gets resolved!

Yeah tell me about it! I bought a 300 dollar monitor from tiger direct and they not only left it at my door, they didnt even wrap it so everyone could see the freaking flat screen monitor on my doorstep.I live in a townhouse so my neighbors are RIGHT THERE... i'm lucky that they are all honest!

No, not an affiliate program. Anyone who has outstanding credits though, I have applied for with the same affiliate manager, she is still with them.
