Best Buy IdeaX

[#1]

I am a best buy elite plus member. I spend several thousand dollars a year a best buy. One of the main reasons I do that is the rewards program. I enjoy being able to use rewards to buy Microsoft gift cards to buy Xbox games. I have not bought a physical copy of a game in 5 years, but I still go to Best buy for my Xbox cards. Relatives know that I enjoy best buy gift cards for holidays. If you cannot allow us to buy gaming gift cards with our rewards, then you have lost my business. I will gladly cancel my best buy credit card and take my business elsewhere if you are going to take away the biggest benefit of shopping there.

This has always been a thing at Best Buy. They claim its to minimize fraud.

It is also double dippiing. You don't get rewards when you use a gift card but you do get rewards when you buy one. So using free money to buy free money returns a negative. 

And using a gift card to buy a gift card just does not make any sense, unless your intent is to get more rewards without  actually purchasing anything

At this time we will not be making this an option.
