Hi Tracy, 

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear about any disappointment regarding the final balance on your gift card.

To clarify, as an official reseller, we specialise in providing a complete and comprehensive range of gift cards while ensuring all underlying transactions are processed securely.

While some specific card issuers require a small handling or service fee, we always ensure this fee is clearly and transparently visible as soon as you add the gift card to your shopping cart. For customers looking to avoid extra costs, we also proudly offer dozens of alternative gift cards that do not carry any fees.

We appreciate your business and hope this helps clarify how our platform operates. If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at support@giftcards.co.uk.

No warning that paying by credit card would incur charges. Having bought gift cards in supermarkets this has not previously resulted in charges. Whilst this is an issue with credit card company I think clearer warnings should be made to consumers

Hello Sam, 

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I’m sorry to hear this was not clear and that your experience was not as expected.

To clear things up a bit: when you make purchases using a credit card, your bank may apply a cash‑transaction fee and interest, as the payment is processed as a cash advance. This isn’t something we control, as it’s determined by the Merchant Category Code assigned to our business. We do appreciate that this isn’t always obvious to customers, especially if you’ve bought gift cards elsewhere without any extra charges.

Our finance team can help here. They’re able to issue a refund for the cash fee and any interest your bank has added. If you reach out to our customer support team at support@giftcards.co.uk with your order details, they’ll let you know what other information is needed so we can get that sorted for you.

We genuinely appreciate your point about clearer warnings. Feedback like yours helps us improve how we communicate these things going forward.

With kind regards,

Gift cards courtesy of a scammer.

I am sure that this company are fine but unfortunately I did not request £600 worth of gift cards, the scammer did along with taking £3,800 from my bank a/c. So this no reflection on the company.
