gift card expected to arrive March 4

I ordered a Whole Foods gift card on February 22.
That was the day Amazon.com offered $8.23 off $50+ purchase of anything sold by them. There was a thread here about it.

That was 6 business/8 calendar days ago, and the item still has not shipped.
It was so long ago, I forgot about it.
I log into my account today, and it still shows that the item has not shipped but is expected to be delivered on March 4.

Amazon really has lost a step or two with their customer satisfaction at least mine.

It is unbelievable that they are this slow, and that their software is that broken.

Wow! What a disappointment. I wonder what the problem is?

I have been enjoying the new lingerie that I ordered with my $50. It arrived just two days later as scheduled and is so luxurious to have something new and comfie.

There wasn't a way to specifically inquire about the gift card.

I somehow managed to get to a place on the website to lodge a complaint.
I have an email from Amazon asking which order was the one in question.
He also gave me $5 for my troubles.

There is no way that gift card is going to make it unless they ship it Priority Mail Express.


Update:
Amazon found a problem with my order.
They didn't say what kind of problem.
They upgraded the shipping so that I will receive the gift card 3/4 - 3/6.

So, what were they planning on doing if I hadn't notified them?
Sheesh.
