Re: scanning amazon gift cards

2022-07-29 Thread Donald Raikes
Now in the amazon app I am not finding where I can scan the cards I
only find where I have to enter the claim code and fill in a captia
just like on the website.

Fortunately I discovered I can enter a gift claim code when I am
checking out and it will use that gift card for some or all of the
purchase price.

RE: scanning amazon gift cards

2022-07-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
With a gift card the barcode can only be either on the one side or the other. I 
suggest when you are in the correct place in the app to put the gift card on a 
table, put the phone on top and line it up so the camera lens is approx. in the 
middle, then try to lift your phone straight up from the card, probably all 
that is needed is 4 or 6 inches for a credit size card. Hold it still for a 
moment and if that doesn't do anything repeat with the other side. If you find 
it easier you could try it the other way around, put the phone on the table 
with the back camera facing up after opening the Amazon app and going to the 
right place, then put the gift card on top of the camera and lift it straight 
up about 4 or 6 inches. I have done this with Apple gift cards and done it both 
ways successfully.

You can of course use Aira or Be My Eyes if you want to first find out where 
exactly the barcodes are, e.g. which side and where on the card, e.g. top left, 
middle, bottom centre etc. Put down all cards either with the barcode side down 
or up as you prefer and then try the above. I know Aira can take pictures with 
the regular camera app, not sure if they could actually remotely do these 
barcodes for you and add them to your system. I guess if you had a membership 
they could log into your computer remotely and do it for you there after 
writing down all the numbers first, but that certainly wouldn't be possible in 
a 5-minute or less free call.

Sieghard

Hi,

I have received a number of amazon gift cards recently, and I was wondering if 
anyone has used the amazon app to try tot scan the gift cards into their amazon 
account?

I haven't found a way to find the barcode or whatever the app uses with the 
camera.

I tried going to the amazon website and entering the giftcards manually, but 
they require use of an inaccessible captia to redeem a giftcard.

Any thoughts would be helpful.

TIA,

Hi, Donald. 
I would suggest, if you have access to these services, using Aira or Be My

Hope this helps.

Buying iTunes gift cards

2020-03-19 Thread Anne West
Okay. I wanted to send a $10.00 gift card via email to a friend and found
the order screen totally different than the last time I did it. The lowest
amount  showing was $25.00 but there was an edit field to enter a different
amount. I entered 10 and sent the request. I got a note stating the email
was invalid which wasn't. So, called Apple Accessibility.

 

Now you have the details but I'm still wondering if the call center is
closed?

Hi Donald. I'm glad voice dream scanner worked out for you. I have a large 
collection of vinyl records and am in the process of ripping them to the 
computer. Of course, I need to know the side numbers of the disks I'm ripping 
and voice dream does a wonderful job of reading the disk centers.

A further note: I re-scanned the front of the card and it picked up the card

On the back of the card it read the website and phone number to get card

I am impressed!

RE: identifying gift cards

Donald, you might get Voice Dream Scanner for $6 and try it. It is very good 
and might do the trick for you. None of the data goes to the cloud. His whole

Subject: identifying gift cards

Hi,

Are there any accessible apps that can help me identify/read a gift card I have 
been given?

I have several visa and amazon giftcards that I have been given lately, but I 
need to know the details on the cards like card number, expiration date, and 
CID, plus for the visa gift cards there is another number that allows me to 
look up the balance on the card.

I tried using  seeing ai to read the cards but it just didn't work.

Is there anything that could help me out?

Thanks,
Donald

RE: KNFB Reader and Gift Cards

2017-01-21 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
If KNFB Reader can't read it then I doubt anything else can. You may have to 
use Be My Eyes or that other app (can't remember the name right now) which 
connects you with a real person and then show then the gift card via your 
phone's camera or, if you have friends or family members with iPhones just call 
them via Facetime and ask them to take a look. I assume you are trying to get 
the gift card number? iTunes gift cards do have a barcode and can be scanned 
with the camera, not sure if others do, but that could be an option if the 
company where the gift card is from offers the option to redeem the card in an 
app or online using the camera.

Sieghard

Re: Reading Gift Cards

2016-11-16 Thread englishrider91
When my husband sent me a picture of the gift cards he'd gotten us for a nearby 
steakhouse, KNFBReader handled the picture pretty well. It didn't castch the 
amount of the gift card, but it got the name of the place, and that it was a 
gift card. I think things would go well if you took a very straight picture 
with KNFBReader.


Thanks,

read with phone, and didn't reply, I just assumed, he posted with the EDU 
email. That's why I pointed out the name issue.

Hi all,
I've posted to this list and other lists many times before, as you can
see by searching in your inbox history.
My university email is pcs2001(at)tc.columbia.edu. I separated the @
sign to avoid receiving spam myself. If you wish to reach me you can
simply replace at with @ sign. Audible gift card is normal practice as
prize, and I added Samsung tracker and Saks Fifth Avenue to ensure a
more representative sample in terms of gender and device platform both
iOS and Android. I created a shorter URL to make it easier for people
to copy but here's full long URL as well.

RE: Blind low vision survey - win Samsung health tracker, Audible gift cards, Saks Fifth Avenue handbag and more

2016-03-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I’d be careful with this survey, there are 4 red flags that went up for me:

 

1.   The survey link is a Google shortened link so no way to know where it 
will take you

2.   The promise of  the somewhat strange prizes

3.   The fact that where he wrote he can be contacted for questions the 
email address is given as text with the @ symbol and period written out as “at” 
and “dot” in order to prevent it from being recognized as an email address one 
can click on. When I translate the email address the way he wrote it into an 
actual email address, it is philsoatpcs2...@tc.columbia.edu 
<mailto:philsoatpcs2...@tc.columbia.edu>  which sounds suspicious to me.

4.   The email address he is posting from is hidden, but when you extract 
is from the header it is philso1...@gmail.com <mailto:philso1...@gmail.com>  so 
nothing to do with a University or even the email address he is given where he 
can be contacted. The websites of Columbia University is www.columbia.edu 
<http://www.columbia.edu>  and the one ofBaruch College is www.baruch.cuny.edu 
<http://www.baruch.cuny.edu> , one would expect he would have an email from one 
of these domains.

 

Lastly, I googled this college he mentions and it does exist and is listed as 
one of 10 senior colleges of the City University of New York, but it’s strange 
he claims to be with Columbia University and City University. Like I said, I’d 
think twice before doing the survey or even clicking on the link until Cara or 
Mark say they have checked into this and it’s legit.

RE: iTunes gift cards once again

2015-12-10 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Reggie,

 

Just open the app store, put focus on the “Featured” tab at the bottom left of 
the screen (where normally the Phone icon is when you are on the home screen), 
now flick left 3 times and you’ll be on a button called “Send Gift”. Here is 
what you see on the screen that opens:

 

A “To” button, double tap on that and enter the email address of the person you 
want to send the gift to. This is a bit of a strange field because double 
tapping the To button pops up the on-screen keyboard and you can enter the 
email address, but you can’t actually see it until you are done and press the 
Return/Enter button on the virtual keyboard. If I entered my own email address, 
it would then say “To siegh...@live.ca <mailto:siegh...@live.ca> ” instead of 
just “To”.

The second button is “From” and it should already have your name in it.

Then is a message field with a 200 character maximum, so you could type 
something like “Merry Christmas, enjoy this little gift” or whatever.

Next you have several values to choose from, there is a $20, $30 and $50 option 
or an “other” choice where you could type in a custom amount, this field works 
properly and a numeric keypad pops up where you can enter the amount. If you 
select one of the amounts that are listed Voiceover will say “Selected” after 
you double tap on it.

Next is a heading called “Send Gift” and underneath a button which says 
“Today”. If you double tap on this it changes to “Other date” and you can 
select a future date from a picker, there is a picker for month, day and year 
at the bottom of the screen and you can flick up with one finger to pick a 
future day. Since we are in December and you can’t pick a day in the past the 
month picker cannot be changed unless you first change the year from 2015 to 
2016, at that point you can select any month and day in 2016.

flick up/down to adjust 

Once you are done with all that double tap on “Next” 

Now you can choose a theme, if you touch at the bottom in the middle above the 
home key you find a page picker. You can flick up and change it, for me it had 
7 options, if I touched the middle of the screen after changing it it would 
tell me a description of the theme, e.g. Purple Background with a green present 
or “Holiday” or “Winter”.

Select you theme and double tap next again at the top right of the screen.

Lastly you now have a summary of everything, it shows the To address, the name, 
your email address, the theme and amount and you can now double tap on the 
“Buy” button at the top right and your credit card will be charged.

 

Remember two things:

1.   You can only send a gift to somebody who uses the same app/iTunes 
store as you, e.g. if you are in the US you can only send a gift to somebody 
else in the US who uses the uS app store. I am in Canada and I couldn’t sent 
you a gift because you are not using the Canadian app/iTunes store.

2.   Any gifts you send are charged to the card on your account even if you 
yourself have a gift card balance.

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

Where can I find iTunes gift cards which send an email to recipient with the

sends me to podcasts. Do I need to go online or can I order from app? I have 
never done this before, though I have been a recipient of gift cards. Can I get

RE: iTunes gift cards once again

2015-12-10 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Sorry, forgot one thing, after you tap on “Buy”, you have to confirm and tap 
again “Buy Now” and enter your Apple Id password just like when you buy an app.

If you have 2-step verification enabled, you may also have to enter your 
confirmation code which you can have sent to you by text message or to another 
iOS device if you have one registered.

Subject: iTunes gift cards once again

 

Where can I find iTunes gift cards which send an email to recipient with the 
code to put in? Apple changed the store, and I am getting frustrated as it 
sends me to podcasts. Do I need to go online or can I order from app? I have 
never done this before, though I have been a recipient of gift cards. Can I get 
a step-by-step from the giving side, please? Thanks.

 Today only, you can get $100 gift card for $80 on eBay. I believe it is 
 offered through PayPal. I just bought one, and it sent me to PayPal to make 
 the payment. That is about the best deal I ever see on iTunes gift cards, 20% 
 off. They also have $50 gift card for $40, if 80 is too rich for your blood. 
 Good luck.

Re: Discounted iTunes gift cards on eBay today only

Hi Robin,
I got an email from eBay informing me of this deal. I have an account with 
them, and they have my email address. So, like it or not, every day I get an 
email from them. Mostly, I ignore those things. But this one mention of the 
iTunes deal right up front. So I went and bought one. Interestingly, I had to 
use my iPad as I could not get the thing to add to my cart when I tried my 
iPhone. I've no idea why.

offered through PayPal. I just bought one, and it sent me to PayPal to make
the payment. That is about the best deal I ever see on iTunes gift cards,
20% off. They also have $50 gift card for $40, if 80 is too rich for your
blood. Good luck.

I was just wondering where do I go to find gift cards to purchase? I want to

Has anyone paid full price for their KNFB Reader? Even if I had to pay full

gift card  ect would be even better. Thanks.

RE: gift cards

2014-12-21 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Lori,

 

Just about every store you can think of sells iTunes gift cards. 7 Eleven and 
other convenience stores, many supermarkets, many sdrug stores and of course 
all the big electronics stores like Best Buy as well as department stores like 
Target, Wallmart and so on. Who just happens to have them on sale is another 
story and you just have to check around. I just got four $25 gift cards here in 
Canada for 20% off, so I only paid $80 and that was at Costco. I asked my 
friends who live near a Costco in Vancouver and who shop there a lot to check 
if they still have the deal because my staff just gave me a $50 iTunes gift 
card as a Christmas gift and if I bought another $100 for $80 I could buy the 
lifetime version of Seeing eye GPS which I believe is $240. I would have then 
only paid $160 for that in actual money. Of course for $140 I can get two 
3-year subscription packages and who knows what is out there in 6 years. But 
loading up on 20% off iTunes credit is always a good deal as you often see 10% 
off deals, but the 20% off deals don’t happen too often.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Prizmo vs KNFB Reader and how iTunes gift cards can save you $20

2014-11-26 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello List,

 

Reading about Prizmo and KNFB Reader, I thought I point out that for those
who are considering KNFB Reader but want to save a bit of money, this
weekend would be a good time. I just listened to the Today in iOS Black
Friday edition where Rob goes over all sorts of deals you can get starting
in a couple of days, and among many others, a lot of the large chain stores
like Target, Best Buy, Sam's Club and so on offer iTunes gift cards at
discounts of 15 to 20%. This means you can pick up KNFB Reader for $80
instead of $100. Even if you don't need to buy an expensive app, it's always
nice to have $25 or $50 of iTunes credit especially if you can get it for
20% less and to use it for something you want down the road.

 

Having said that, if any of the Canadian list members come across a 15% or
20% discount please do post about it. Right now 7 Eleven offers a 10%
discount on $50 iTunes gift cards, but I'm hoping to find a 20% deal
somewhere.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Best Buy Offering Crazy Discounts on iPhone5S/5C, Gift Cards for Old iPhones

2014-05-08 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
First, I'm sorry, but this is only Best Buy, so is probably only for the United 
States.

Best Buy is offering insane deals right now: an iPhone5 gets you a $200 gift 
card, a 4S $150, and a 4 $100. Then you can get a new 5S for $100, or a 5C for 
$50! When we went today, my sister did this, and she got an additional $15 for 
the phone charger, plus $35 for renewing her Verizon contract. She got rid of 
the iPhone4, and walked out with an iPhone5S an Otterbox Defender case, having 
paid $8! If you're not holding out for the iPhone6 this fall, and you have an 
upgrade with Verizon or the other one Best Buy supports (Sprint, I think) take 
this opportunity! It only lasts until Sunday, though.

Have a great day,

redeeming an iTunes gift cards

2014-01-20 Thread denise avant
Hi all,
I have successfully put in the number for my itunes gift card. All I want to 
know is whether it will automatically charge the gift card before my credit 
card or do I need to do something else?

IT will take from your gift card balance before it takes from your payment

Re: redeeming an iTunes gift cards

2014-01-20 Thread Alan Paganelli
No. your gift card will get used up first.  And, if you add a second gift 
card it will only be added to what's left of the first gift card etc.  So in 
my case, I got a 25 dollar gift card so I typed that in.  Then I got a 
second gift card for 50 dollars. Even though I used 2 bucks of it when I 
added in the second card it just showed 73 dollars.  To some it up, any 
credits you have will be used up first.  When there are 0 left and you then 
buy something, then the credit card will get tagged.


HTH

PS: sometimes, you can find a 50 dollar card for 40 dollars right there in 
the Walmart store.  That's a really good deal I think.

Alan

A question about expiration of gift cards; Follow-up: 287304164

2013-09-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Joanne and others,

Below is the reply I received from Apple regarding the expiration of iTunes 
gift cards. My assumption was confirmed, promotional gift cards (those you 
sometimes can buy at a discount) have an expiry date after which they cannot be 
redeemed any longer. However, once redeemed which means once the balance of the 
card has been applied to your iTunes account, that balance stays there until it 
is used up even if you don't do anything with it for 10 years. In short, if you 
are given a promotional gift card or buy one, don't let it sit around where it 
might get lost or expire. Just redeem it and put the amount on you raccount, 
it's like money in the bank and it's there for you to use it whenever you want.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hi Sieghard,

Thank you for contacting iTunes Store Customer Support. My name is Erick and 
it's my pleasure to assist you with regard to your concern for today.

I understand that you would like to know if redeemed gift cards on your account 
will expired or only the card that has not been redeemed. I do recognize the 
urgency and importance of getting this resolved and I will be happy to look 
into this for you right away. 

Sieghard, in an effort to assist you I have reached out to an iTunes Store 
Senior Advisor who has informed me that once the gift cards have been redeemed 
on your account, they will stay there until they have been completely used. 
They will not expire even you didn't use them for years.

However, on the other part, gift cards that haven't been redeemed yet on any 
account are the ones who will expired.

I hope this information has been helpful. If you have any questions or concerns 
about anything I have covered in here, please reply directly to this message. 
I'd love to find out how this works out for you and I look forward to hearing 
back from you. Thank you for being an Apple customer, and have a nice day!


Sincerely,

Erick
iTunesStore/MacAppStoreCustomerSupport

Please Note: I work Thursday-Monday, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM EST

$50 Canadian iTunes Gift cards for $40 at 7 11 - promo ends today

2013-07-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Canadian List Members,

 

I apologize that I didn't post this before, but I only learned about it this
morning. 7 11 has a promotion on $50 itunes gift cards which ends today at
Midnight and I assume it is Canada wide. I don't know if American 7 11
stores have it.

 

The promotion is 20% off which means you get $10 off a $50 iTunes gift card
paying only $40.

I have only once come across a better promotion when Safeway had $50 itunes
gift cards for $37 about a year and a half ago.

 

I picked up 3 of them, $120 gives me $150 credit which means I can now buy
the 3-year subscription for the Seeing eye GPS app and basically get it for
$104 instead of $130.

 

And, just for the fun of it, I briefly share how I found out about the
promotion. Ever since the Seeing eye app came out I have been checking with
Safeway, Shopper's Drug Mart and even asked friends in Vancouver to keep an
eye on promotions at Costco or Best buy. This morning I stopped in at
Shopper's Drug Mart to get a drink and one of the ladies who work there came
up when I was at the till and said Hey, Sieghard, you asked about iTunes
gift card promotions last week. I was at 7 11 last night and noticed they
had this promo on their $50 cards. I called 7 11 and they confirmed that it
was still on but this was the last day.

 

Well, I guess it helps if you look like Brad Pitt when it comes to the
ladies remembering who you are!

OK, I was just joking, but it does help if you live in a town of 6,000 where
you are the only blind guy with a very good looking 90 pound golden
retriever/black lab guide dog. Hope maybe somebody will read this in time
who is ready to go and grab a deal.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: in app purchases and gift cards?

I would call Apple as any purchases, including in-app ones, will be 
credited from your iTunes account before your card is used if you have one.

Re: Redeeming gift cards with the new iTunes

2012-12-29 Thread Rob Harris
Very good point,   and to be careful as it's like a sandwich, I scratched 
off the complete thing, number and all once.  And be sure it was a sealed 
one when bought;  without that, it is probably used already and shouldn't 
have been sold.  I know  some loacal store keepers got sued for  doing this 
to lottery cards.

Make sure you are using the correct number from the gift card. You have to 
peel off a sticker or scratch off a scratch off box to reveal the correct 
code on iTunes card.

Do it on the phone in appstore or itunes;  it's a lot easier and more 
accessible; do it before you  lose it.
apppstore/featured,  right at the bottom, just about terms and conditions,

gift cards??

2012-12-28 Thread Vicki Meizinger
Hi, I have been trying to purchase gift cards this week. I have been 
toitunes and apple multiple times.  Sometimes I get to where you can buy 
cards but you don't get the choice of buying what you want.  ie. they 
have $50 and I only want $20.  I was able to do fine with this until 
itunes 11 came along, I'm needing some suggestions now from those who 
are doing it.  Thanks in advance.

Re: Redeeming gift cards with the new iTunes

2012-12-28 Thread Sherrie
I had problems with my iTunes gift card but was successful doing it on the 
iPhone.  The following advice from a recent email helped a lot...
“the Redeem button is there on the iPhone in the App Store at the bottom of the 
screen. He forgot to mention that you have to first select the “Featured” tab 
which is the one on the far left. I find it easiest that once I select it, I 
make sure I touch it again, then swipe left and 2 or 3 swipes should put you on 
the redeem button.” 

I also discovered that I had typed the number on my computer when my husband 
read it out loud to me and thus I got a V and B mixed up on the code.

HTH,

Hi all,

I was fortunate enough to receive an iTunes gift card among my Christmas

screen that would allow me to redeem a gift card, I entered the

was unable to read this message with Jaws and only learned about it

RE: Apple store gift cards

Well, good news!!! At least I hope. (smiles) Apple is going to credit my

to a store and get an iTunes gift card and send me the number.  I was
transferred to 3 people, and at first they did not want to change it.
However, the lady talked to her supervisor, and this is what they came up
with.  Is there anything else I need to be aware of before we re-do this?

Okay, maybe i'm wrong but it seems pretty obvious to me that you can't use 
this at the app store on your Mac or in iTunes. It has to be used at the 
Apple store, either online or at a retail store that you would visit in 
person. Or you can use it on the hone to the Apple store. This seems to me 
to be the relevant line:

 For use in the U.S. at Apple Retail Stores, the Apple Online Store, or by

That was nice of them to change it for you even if you did have to talk to

 Okay, maybe i'm wrong but it seems pretty obvious to me that you can't use 
 this at the app store on your Mac or in iTunes. It has to be used at the 
 Apple store, either online or at a retail store that you would visit in 
 person. Or you can use it on the hone to the Apple store. This seems to me

Re: Apple store gift cards

I don't agree. They are separate and you don't buy the same things at the 
three: Mac app store, Apple Store, and iTunes. And probably in their accounting 
and reporting there are reports and other statistics they keep separate.

Re: Apple store gift cards

2012-11-23 Thread Cheryl Homiak
I just did a google search  and it took me to the page where you buy iTunes 
gift cards. It says that the cards may be used for the iTunes store, app store, 
mac app store and iBooks. So apparently they work for everything except the 
actual Apple store purchases. Below I am pasting a link which takes you to the 
page under the Apple store which explains about the two different gift cards. I 
found this by going to apple.com, pressting the store link and pressing the 
gift cards link. I hope this settles any remaining confusion.

 Still, like the man below suggests, you can login to  the apple online store

Okay, maybe i'm wrong but it seems pretty obvious to me that you can't use this 
at the app store on your Mac or in iTunes. It has to be used at the Apple 
store, either online or at a retail store that you would visit in person. Or 
you can use it on the hone to the Apple store. This seems to me to be the 
relevant line:

Re: Apple store gift cards

2012-11-22 Thread Rob Harris
Ok, I'm going to guess that Gift number is the one we want;  and though not 
done this,  the pin would be confirmation you got the real card;  but for 
sure Gift number sounds the most useful and promisng.  The Redeem2 button 
as previously described is still going to be the path to use it.

Ok, just hcecked in there and iti s actually termed - gift card or download 
code:
So apart from the dimmed Redeem button,  that is the one you will press when 
you have put the number in, all I had was the text field for that code, no 
input field for a pin.

So got to be worth a try.
