| How To Cancel Amazon Gift Card Reload |
Step 1: Accepting Your Fate (Just Kidding, But Seriously, Check Your Bank Account)
Okay, maybe this isn't the most glamorous step, but a quick peek at your bank account might be a good first move. This will help you assess the situation. Did you accidentally set up a reload for a million bucks (because, if so, maybe we can be friends)? Or was it a more manageable amount that won't leave you eating ramen noodles for the next month?
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.
Here's the good news: Unlike hitting "buy" on that fifteenth pair of polka-dotted shoes, Amazon gift card reloads cannot be directly cancelled after they've been initiated. But don't despair, intrepid shopper, there's still hope!
