This is 100% false.
It is a rip off and most restaurants upcharge 20%-30% in their menu -- can't blame them. But when you use these discounted gift cards to pay for orders, and if you have Dashpass, you end up paying around $4.5 extra in markup, service fee and tips for an $18 order to have someone driving to the restaurant, potentially waiting 5-10 minutes for the order to be ready, and driving to your home to get it delivered. I can't really complain about that. If I drive to pick it up myself the whole trip could easily take 30-40 minutes. The service is fundamentally paying someone whose time is cheaper than yours to do the same job -- gig work -- and saving a bit of money is always better than nothing.
Limit looks to be 3 of the Digital (had to add them 1 at a time) and 1 Physical.

in for 3...adding these gift cards does nothing to nix potentially getting coupons from my experience over 2 accounts (one dash pass, one without, both with gift cards)

I used to buy these a lot and have used DD with Dashpass for 3-4 years now.

Heads up though, DD didn't refund me for an undelivered order for the first time ever once I had a gift card balance. I am assuming they knew I couldn't charge back the order since it wasn't paid for by credit card.

Never buying another gc and paying by cc from now on.

I ended up contacting the BBB, and DD refunded me there.
I think this is expecting quite a lot to think that CS is going to bother looking at whether you have a balance or not as part of the response flow script. Much more likely that they're generally just tightening down on refunds/credits, and it coincidentally happened to occur when you loaded a GC to your account.

I've had plenty of instances where an order was wrong or missing items, and I've never had a problem getting credits for those items even when carrying GC balances in excess of $100. If they are indeed clamping down, then maybe the advice of paying with CC so that you can charge back is still a good one, but attributing that it happened specifically because you had a GC balance is probably overthinking it.

It's not a person who made the decision. I filed for a refund in the app and received an automated response. It'd be easy to factor in payment source as part of that. (Edit: I did call them trying to get it overturned and spoke to a person. That rep though just kept repeating they can't undo the decision once it was made.)

However, I definitely can't say it wasn't coincidence. It just seemed unlikely to be coincidence. Like you, after years of DD and a number of delivery issues where I got the refund easily, it was only this time now that I used a gift card balance they suddenly weren't willing to refund me.

Do not bother with this. I ordered two of them and tried to redeem the code and it didn't work inside the application then tech-support said I had to call someone. I'll just take them into court and sue and not bother looking at the discount out here. I just did the same thing last month through someone else without a problem, but I go to Best Buy and they're automated system doesn't work.

Cool, I'm glad I saw this! A coworker is having a baby this August and will be out for a bit. She doordashes lunches or snacks a couple times a week and just today DD'd a Starbucks beverage mid-afternoon. I truly think this will be a nice thing for her while she's home with a newborn and a toddler. Thanks!

Try a different account. Your account probably blacklisted from entering too many invalid cards earlier.

Happened to me with grubhub when I had trouble reading a shitty scratched physical gc.

Most these cards are provisioned through Cashstar and a privileged CS rep should be able to refund you and deactivate card once they verify it still holds a balance

If you add these gift cards you lose your dash pass benefits. Really only good for pick up orders.

At least some of your order has to be paid for with your dash pass credit card to get the benefits.

Pass.

Quote from m0moneym0pr0blems :
A lot of restaurants do not upcharge for pickup. If you have DashPass from a Chase credit card and order pickup with these gift cards, it is essentially saving 15+ percent for regular takeout.

I find this to be the exact opposite for me. Almost every restaurant near my location charges me the same whether it's pickup or delivery.

So is this a good deal or not? Do you really not get targeted coupons if you have gift cards loaded?
