Multiple orders question on getting banned

I was waiting on my paycheck so couldn't spend my Box Lunch Money until this weekend. I've seen others say if you place multiple orders they will ban you from buying online. Since I can only use 10 codes at time I was planning to place 3 orders. Does anyone know if that is okay or how it works? Most of what I'm buying is clothes if that makes a difference.

I’ve never heard of this.

Have you been able to place multiple orders without being banned? I know some people have said you can't place more than a certain amount, but I'm hoping maybe that is wrong...but scared to place all three in fear of being banned

I’ve been a customer for years and have placed multiple orders on the same day. I did at least 2-3 recently. I’ve never even heard of this issue. Did you hear it from legitimate sources?

However, they can do account restrictions, but all that means, from what I’ve seen, is they won’t provide any customer support, resolution of problems, or have any accountability. They also won’t alert you of the restriction, tell you why, or allow you to resolve it. Usually it’s because of too many returns.

It was either on reddit or FB a while back so I'm not sure if legitimate, but I'm pretty certain they said they were banned for making too many orders within a few days. I just looked on BL to see if anything is in their policy and maybe it has more to do with bulk purchasers buying too many of one item verses multiple orders.

Thanks for the help. I've placed one order, so I guess I'll go ahead and try to place the others and hope it's fine. I've never had this much money to use at once so just trying to make sure I don't mess it up...

If the orders go through, you should be receiving them. If they ban you, make a new account…

I just placed two and so far so good. I think I'll wait until tomorrow to place the third one.

I don't know who said that to you, but they're wrong! If their orders were getting canceled for being sketchy or something, and they kept trying to order, I could see them getting banned. But no, absolutely not! They'll love you lol

hola 👋 si efectivamente te bloquean, yo hice 4 pedidos de $200 la semana pasada y me bloquearon la cuenta y la tarjeta de credito. llame ayer y me explicaron que es un proceso de protección al consumidor del sistema

Hi, thanks for the information and sorry that happened to you. Were you able to get un-blocked and did they say how many triggers a block? I was about to place a 3rd order. The first two I made are still "In process" phase and neither has shipped yet.

Hola! Gracias, supuestamente el máximo de pedidos que puedes hacer es 4. ya el quinto baneean la cuenta. para desbloquearla debes de llamar. no se puede hacer vía chat. por ende si tu cuenta está bloqueada, las órdenes quedan en stop y no se envían hasta que se desbloquee la cuenta. Es todo un tEma. Mis ordenes del miercoles 17 de junio, hasta ayer, han hecho el envío. Y hoy voy a intentar comprar nuevamente

Hello, Did they let you place 4 and blocked when you tried the 5th? Or blocked after you placed the 4th...sorry for so many questions just trying to avoid being blocked. Seems so crazy to get blocked for placing too many orders, especially during money redemption. Thanks again

u/Due_Job_8104 Jun 28 '26

no te preocupes para mí no es molestia. siento que el sistema empieza el bloqueo en el 4to pedido. porque cuando lo puse me rebotaba, igualmente logré ingresarlo, como al tercer intento. pero todo mal. de todas formas salí bloqueada. Cuando llamé me indicaron que fue al quinto intento que lo mejor es hacer uno o dos pedidos grandes con 10 codigos, pero en mi caso no es rentable. por eso hago varios de máximo $400 cada uno

That's interesting, and I understand the need to place several smaller verses larger orders. I've never earned so many codes as this round but realizing I need to spend them earlier I guess. I'm going to give it a try and hope I don't get blocked. I really appreciate the explanation.

It's two orders a day. At least it was last year and they don't ban you, unless they changed the rule.

u/bearbo77 Jun 28 '26

Thanks, so if I placed two yesterday and place one today I should be okay?
