So, I told you that my mom's birthday gift arrived as just an empty package, well..I talked to them, and they wanted to know if I wanted a refund to Amazon balance or to my original payment method. Amazon balance was faster so I said that. When I re ordered the item, I wanted to use the amount I had credited to my account, but instead they took it out of PayPal. when I said I wanted to use the gift card balance on the order.
. I was going to tell them that happened, but I had also ordered a purse for myself which was 20 something, and I did not get charged for it...??? and the credit is still on my Amazon balance. Oh well..pretty strange, but typical in my world..

You just have to make sure that everything is in order. When you order, unless you spesify otherwise and tripple check, what's considered your default method will be charged everytime.

@snowy22315 It can happen to anyone, which is why you need to be on your toes.

They are having some issues. Although he keeps trying to get a better job, and interviewed for one the other day,(Help center he has worked in the Coding field before) he likes working at Amazon. They feed them once per month, like they gave them Thanksgiving, Chick Fila another time, IHOP, whatever.. Also, he simply loves that he only has to drive 10 minutes to get there.

@snowy22315 That sounds really good with just a ten minute drive.

You were well within your rights. I was non too pleased with both deliveries to my mom CHristmas and Bday were screwed up.

@snowy22315 - As the book was a gift, I had to order to another place, I thought it was in my rights to ask the refund.

That's strange indeed but that could happen when there's a glitch.

It usually uses gift card first. That is strange it didn't. But sounds like you came out ahead
