This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

What a scam! Gifted $75 card. Attempted to use card at Nordstrom, card denied. Tried couple more times, still denied. Went to website, typed in card number, no such card basically, and told to call number on back of card. Called, opened a case, provided all the information they required. Received email from a BOT closing the DISPUTE CLAIM and providing another number, this time a DISPUTE CASE. Heard nothing. Emailed every day to follow up. All emails ignored. Day 16, called again and had to provide all the information I've already provided in the DISPUTE CLAIM. Was told they're "reviewing the disputed charges". What part of the card has NEVER been used don't they comprehend. Then told it will take 60 - 90 days to review the CASE. If it takes 60 - 90 days, then you have problem with your product. Responded that 60 - 90 days is unacceptable and miraculously, the CASE can be escalated to 24 - 48 hours. I am not holding my breath as this company is scamming its customers. I will call them every day until I get the answer I want - a card with my $75. If I could give zero stars I would. Don't ever buy one of their cards.

Recommendation: STAY AWAY.

Now they are telling me they need to contact the merchant and updates will be sent every 10 days when Carlos assured me I’d receive a response in 48 hours. What merchant? The card has never been used! What don’t these people understand? Egregious customer service.

On April 17, received email stating "we've made a one-time exception to expedite the resolution ... We're in the process of replacing your card and would like to offer you the option of ... Virtual Card - delivered in 2 - 4 hours or Physical Card - delivered within 2- 4 business days".

Responded at 11:55 AM, Virtual Card please. By my maths, the card should have been delivered to my email box no later than 3:55 PM on April 17.

No surprise, it's now April 18 , and NO CARD!

Update by kentishgirl

Sent a card which doesn't work: "An error occured while retrieving your card. Please try again later."

Trying again later is a fruitless exercise as it's the same message.

And they have the audacity to send a survey asking for positive feedback?
