I have no idea about gift cards whatsoever 🤔


Can somebody advise plse.....

My son was given a giftcard for his birthday last year in May.

The card is due to expire in less than a week.

As per terms and conditions the card cannot be used for online spending.

As we all know the shops are closed!


It looks like we are about to lose the money 😭


Any advice gratefully received 👍🏽


Thanks

Hi, could you contact them and see if, given the lockdown, they will convert your gift card to an e-giftcard which can be used online & in store? If they are a decent business they will try to do the right thing given the current circumstances. If they don't I would contact CAB or one of the consumer journalists on the Guardian etc. and try and get them to intervene.

I would phone any customer helpline that they have and explain and ask best thing to do.

Though to be honest I'm pretty sure that they will honour this in view of lockdown and extend the expiry date

so try not to worry

    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.   
    • Totally agree with you.  🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
