I'm having the exact same issue. And wherever I look I find no solution. It would be great to get a response made public on tyhis instead of just privately messaging the forum admin to try and get answers.

Hey there, @NahtreX! We understand your concern with this, being unable to use the gift card you've received definitely sounds pretty far from an ideal situation.

Well let me give you my situation:
- I bought the vr meta quest 2 for Christmas for my sons and bought thru target.com 3 meta quest gift cards of 25 usd each (75 usd total) on the 22/dec and on the same day I got three separate emails from target with the pdf files with the infamous 16 number gift code. I print out the pdf to leave on the Christmas tree.
then on the 25th my sons open the meta quest 2 and are very excited and find the prints out with the “25 usd” gift cards and immediately want to play and download games but oh no wait a minute in no place I can introduce this **bleep** 16 number gift code , it asks me on the meta account to introduce a 25 number code and try to search and in no where on the web I can find a solution.
and like you the community manager tells me to contact thru the proper channels and I did and basically they tell me that the gift cards where activated on 23 / dec , and I told the representative thats weird because I just got the emails and print out the email and hide them , so basically someone at “target.com” or (meta quest/Facebook/oculus) stole or hacked my gift codes. And they will look into it.
so bottom line I spent 75 usd on some gift cards that I did not used and and then had to spend another 50 usd so my sons can use the VR that Santa just brought them.
i still wonder why the hell you sell some gift cards with 16 code number and I no where to be found can we I put those 16 numbers
well that’s my experience, all they told me it’s they escalated my case.
ps: DO NOT BUY THOSE META QUEST GIFT CARDS

No solution yet. They asked for a screenshot of the error, which I provided very quicly, and now It's bneen 16 hours without any further answer. I can't "keep working with them" if they don't keep working with me.
