Mark loaded $400 onto a Speedway gift card, went to fill up, and found a $0 balance, and four months later he's still waiting on 7-Eleven. He's not alone, and we break down why you should check any Speedway cards in your drawer right now. Mark also did everything right on a Chase business checking bonus that never posted, and the answer he got from the branch is maddening. Plus Lululemon may be shutting down another Amex credit workaround, and Capital One drops a 300,000 mile Venture X Business offer that comes with a very big catch. Have you had a gift card drained? Let us know in the comments.
