Simon purchases - requests for verification, DL, SS #, etc.

[Exeneva]

I tried to buy a Simon giftaccount for $500 the other day, but they asked for SSN and this was using Paypal Plugin, and I'm not going to just put in a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ number for this. What's the maximum a Simon giftaccount can be purchased for without requiring SSN?

It all varies, I know someone who bought two $500 with cc in one purchase and all they verified is that the last four on the receipt and embossed on the card matched. Along with ID. Never SSN though

[Okay I'll Play]

In my experience, they ask me for a SSN on any amount above $299. I played around with it for awhile to figure it out. But, as pointed out, it could be different for every person.

When useing simmions gift cards dose your address on the giftcard have to be the same as the funding sources address?

Hi,

I usually buy Simon gift accounts less than $100 and have had no problem sofar. Yesterday I wanted to buy a $500 gift account and noticed the Social Security number of the Purchaser (not the Recipient) is required on the form. I changed the amount to $299 and it didn't require the SSN. However I haven't received the Gift Account number.

I gave Simon a call and they said they need me to fax a copy of my Driver License and Credit Card (that I used to purchase the account). It shouldn't be a problem because of course you need to use your real info (name, address, CC number) to buy a gift account with a Credit cart as the purchaser.

However, does anyone have the same problem before? I mean, i can fax it to them but to be honest I don't want to but looks like I have no choice.

Simon just asked me the same thing. Is it ok to send them copy of drivers license and credit card statement?

[GreenBean]

Johnny, these companies are starting to ask for more ID so there's no reason to not comply. I have not heard that simon are sharing info with ebay. LOL.
