Limit for purchasing Amazon GC from SBI CB CC

[sahneracsam]

I buy Amazon GC of ₹10,000 from Amazon each month and then use them for my insurance payment. (This way we get 5% CB for GC purchase)

But I sense that I have more bills from this year and need to purchase GC of ₹20,000.
So, question whether purchasing 20K per month would lead to any restrictions on my card from Amazon in future, any limits?
Anyone already doing this? I have seen a thread where @wolfdalalstreet is restricted from using the card for purchasing the GC, not sure how much did he push it to get this restriction.

You can add any amount of GC to Amazon wallet in a month but only 30k worth of GC allowed per month if purchased from Amazon itself...
If you buy from third parties then you can even add GC upto anything...
And no such ban or restrictions will be levied on your Amazon account.

That's not the case with me, though. I've barely purchased any voucher from Amazon, maybe less than 5K, over the past year, and yet I can't seem to use a credit card to make a GV purchase. Everything else with my account is in good standing. Had spoken with customer care, they were clueless.

That's strange.... Any KYC issue?

You can purchase only 2-3 times using credit card per month on Amazon.

Nope. Nothing. All in good standing. I was surprised myself when I tried to make a GV purchase and hit that block. Thought it'd go away after a while, but didn't. Tried different cards to verify if it wasn't a card related issue, but that wasn't it either. Called Amazon twice after a couple of months to figure out, nothing satisfactory there either. They were themselves at a loss. Writing a mail to their CC had 0 effect.

Bit surprising. Amazon account is an old one with a reasonably fine history.

I hadn't made a GV purchase from Amazon using CC in over 4 months when I tried. The previous purchase had been for around 1K only.

Never saved any CC on Amazon. Don't use the CCs on any other Az accounts.
