Gift Card Rescue GiftCardRescue GiftCardRescue.com Sold empty $200 card - refused to provide refund Elliot City Maryland

Selling empty cards! Ripped us off - sold us a card in September, that someone had already spent in August!

On 09/09/13 we placed an order for $445.75 in cards, which included a Michaels $200 gift card we gave as a gift for a friends birthday in October. Unfortunately, when she attempted to use the card our local Michaels store that the card balance was $0. So, I called Michaels... and they report that card was used on 8/27/13. That means the card we received was already empty.

We notified GiftCardRescue and they told us that, because we waited beyond the 60 return period to notify them they would not issue a refund. The fact we didn't stipulate that our friend use the card immediately - should not matter... the card was empty before Gift Card Rescue sold it to us!
