The RZ website has 2 sides. There's an internal BB one that they can access and there's an external one that we gamers use.

The external one is a little wonky. I've validated this by attempting to report what I thought were missing preorders in the past whenever the RZ site went glitchy and couldnt display my transaction but in doing so the system would report that the reported transaction was ”already applied to the account.” Sometimes logging right back in or just checking the site a couple of days later showed my missing transaction again. This would explain the missing transactions others have reported about. Point is at the end of the day you're fine as long as you link your transaction with your RZ account.

That and wait 30 days. I cannot emphasize my last point enough.

My Borderlands 2 points just banked. 14 days after pick-up is not too shabby. Now I will put that towards my Dishonored. Anyone ever try to apply a RZ cert to a pitch in card? Pretty sure it won't work but that system is a little screwy.

On the screen where you specify the "payment method" for adding to a Pitch-In Card, the option to select RZ certificates isn't even clickable--instead there's the disclaimer "Reward Zone certificates cannot be used to contribute to a Pitch-In Card", or something to that effect.

Thanks! I was pretty sure you could not but thought I would ask. No biggie.

What about buying a gift card in store using the RZ cert?

I know you can use them towards a prepaid Visa and a Kindle card but another BBY gc is a no go.

Did you actually click the transaction? Mine didn't post pending total till week later, but if you double click on transaction it showed 1000 points earned.

So can you use gift cards and RZ cert for Visa PP card?

I feel like a lot of the re6 complaining is akin to that when final fantasy 13 came out. If you take a game for what it is rather than vs American RPGs or other survival horror and not to re4 or final fantasy vii, you can find an enjoyable game. The metacritic comments are at least all in this same school of thought of you ruined re, you tried to make it like this blah blah blah.

I've found nothing but fun and enjoyment and I'm enjoying the game. But to each their own by all means.

Yep. Great way to convert extra trade credit to cash...costs $5.95 to activate and $200 limit. I only found out about the RZ cert because I was using it while buying some games with a visa but the computer applied part of the cert to the visa card.

I read online you couldn't use trade in gift card or RZ cert. Guess I'll give it a shot. Only game I'm interested is Black Ops 2 so might turn 70 credit into 64 cash.

how i wished i preordered nba2k13. grrr! hope the collectors edition i saw in my store yesterday is still there. need that all star code. hehe!

Finally got my email token for the RE6 DLC

Despite the reviews and my uncertainty I decided to pick up RE6, figured I'd atleast make my money back after certificate, price match & trade in.

Thought I didn't notice until I picked it up that the guy put my pre-order down as 360 and not PS3. Had to go back in and exchange it for the ps3 version. Hopefully it doesn't mess with my certificates, otherwise I guess I will have to call or contact my personal shopper thing.

Also, if anybody wants a 360 pre-order bonus code then PM me. Don't really care about it and obviously can't use it as I don't have my 360 anymore.

yup been there done that as said before... clicked it and only showed 223 for it.

so i picked up borderlands 2 12 days after release. they told me i wasn't going to receive the $20 certificate cause i didn't pick it up within 5 days after release. is there anyway they can fix that? i called gamer clubs # and they don't me i had to speak to the manager at the store. any advice?

That's what it says in the fine print must be picked up within 7 days maybe you could get the manager to override and give you $20 back but that would be ymmv if they read the fine print in the promo

lol, you are sol

So now that I'm a Premier Silver member, I'm considering preordering ACIII and Far Cry 3 (both ) since there's next-to-no chance of both titles not dropping at least $20 within two months given that they're Ubisoft games.

Anyone think I should go ahead and just preorder them?
