Amazon Shopping Voucher utilization (Solved) - Call CS And Extend Validty upto 1 Year

[vulcano]

I have around 70k of ASV which is about to expire in Dec. What are best uses of it. I do not have any shopping like a phone upcoming so was wondering what can be bought using that? What have you all been using the ASV on?

There was a thread about other brand vouchers like big basket that can be purchased using ASV. See whether you can buy any of them with long validity like 6 or 12 months.

I saw that we can buy some jewellery brand vouchers like Kalyan Jewellers.

I tried buying Tata Cliq vouchers from Amazon couple of days back and it did not allow me to use my Amazon Shopping Voucher or Amazon Pay Gift balance. Can you confirm if you are able to buy vouchers using ASV?

You cannot buy all types of vouchers (tatacliq - no), I was able to Kalyan Jewellers vouchers using ASV.

Just a hunch, but can we do it like this?
Buy a product worth 70k in a single transaction and use all the money in the asv and later cancel the order and take the refund.
BOOM 💥
You've successfully increased the validity of the ASV😛

Refund increased validity? or the original validity remains?

I'm not 100% sure but i think it should increase the validity

Call the customer care and ask them what happens?

I think it will renew the voucher as its a new gift card which gets credited

You can call customer support to extend the voucher expiry.

I checked for a refund I got. the validity increases. Its 365 days from the day I got the refund credit

Thats a confirmed way of extending validity. The only catch is - you need to be careful. If you select "replacement only" products like a phone, then you are screwed. Best approach is try for lesser amounts over multiple products. Amazon always uses FIFO for vouchers / balance.
