Terrible customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Uncooperative with other companies and no real customer service.
  • - Provides basic, vague advice from a robotic system.

Uncooperative with other companies, no actual customer service, just a unhelpful robot giving basic and vauge advice. It would please me to see the operator of this company strung up by his feet and beat to death in public.

User's recommendation: use another company

Terrible customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I cannot get a live person to help me figure out why the giftcard won't work anywhere! The number on the back of the card is one endless loop.

User's recommendation: don't buy it

They don’t deserve 1 star , I give them a 0

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I received the card as a gift and activated it, First time I try to use it they declined my purchase at Lowes as a suspicious activity. Really suspicious activity at Lowes ?

Ive not had good experience dealing with their customer phone number on the back of the card , Why cant I get to a live person ? Deny , Deny, Deny , we get frustrated and they make 200 dollars !!

User's recommendation: Don’t waste money on a Vanilla Gift card , it’s a POS !!

I thought someone took money off my card, but it just turns out it's a hold for buying gas at the station, so everything is fine.

Card activation does not work. Never use vanilla giftcards. Called to activate . Can’t do . Went on line again can’t do. To much harassment to use cards . Will spread the word . Do not ever get these

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

whenever i try to buy something its not letting me, it keeps canceling my order. i did the steps correctly and i do not know why it keeps on declining when it is actived and have enough money to buy what i want.

im not understanding it so i called customer service and the lady told me to wait a couple of hours when i already waited another couple of hours to try to repurchase it again. i just want to know why my card keeps declining when i try to place an order for something

Cons:
  • Not letting me spend

Preferred solution: my order to not be canceled so i can get my stuff i want

Card issues

I have a card that cannot be used. The recording says there is an open case.

What does that mean? Your website does not work, and I can't get any answer from a human! Please call and help me.

I have also included the vendor HEB with this issue.
