Worst service. Application is slow and full of bugs. Customer support does not answer phone or respond to emails.

still have had no response. I need an urgent query answered. I really cannot believe how hard it is to get in touch with one of your customer service people. It is actually appalling. I need to be contacted asap in regards to a card enquiry!!!!

I bought my daughter $150 Visa gift card for her 16th birthday. She lost the card unfortunately, it was activated but not yet used. Website said to… Read more

call customer service which I did only to find that apparently even though card is used like a bank debit card they can’t/wont cancel it or reissue a new one as your bank would and that whoever’s hands it falls into has the fortune of spending it. How a name as big as VISA can have no protection on their gift cards for loss or damage and the inability to issue a new one if full funds are still on there is beyond me. It’s a half arsed ploy to make money with no security or protection offered if something goes wrong. Customer service not even based in this country, so loud I could barely hear the person on the phone and the line cut out twice. Asked to speak to supervisor who wasn’t even available and never called back. Even website to activate card was constantly experiencing system errors and took more than 5 attempts on different days to activate it. Truely disappointing for such a big name and basically a scam!! Better off giving the person cash!

Love our new kirribilli bed base! So easy to assemble and the quality is exceptional. We already have the kirribilli side table which is stylish and sturdy. Will continue to purchase from Koala

DO NOT BUY! As a manager in retail I can tell you these are by far the worst gift vouchers we receive in store! There’s zero instructions on the… Read more

back on how to use them….i had to google instructions online to figure out you use the last 4 digits on the front as the pin….basic info like that could’ve easily been added on the the back of the card! A lot of customers have valid cards that have money on them (they show the current balance online) however the cards still decline. People can’t get into contact with head office and emails go unanswered…. Just seems like visa/ vanilla are cashing up from vouchers that aren’t valid half the time. Strongly recommend not using these cards!!!

If it were possible to give no stars, I would. I would discourage anyone from using this 'service'. I was given a $50 gift card by my employer,… Read more

unfortunately, unlike other giftcards you need to activate it by a certain date, otherwise they cancel your funds. They also don't give you three years to spend the money like other vouchers. I contacted their customer service, which has an autoreply that they will reply within 1 business day, which was a lie. I had to follow up a number of times to get a reply. In the end they refunded me only $35 as a goodwill gesture, and I only had 10 days to spend the funds. This company is a scam

Village easily has the worst gift card redemption process ever. Whether you have a specific Village Cinema voucher/gift card or whether you’re… Read more

exchanging another general gift card to use at Village (Village requires you to exchange general gift cards to specific E-Vouchers in order to use them at Village), it is easily the most complicated and absolute worst process ever. There aren’t any clear or straightforward instructions at any point, you hit issue after issue (eg. Continuous errors attempting to enter and redeem voucher codes) or their system just gives you nothing at all and won’t allow you to proceed. Customer service is even worse, impossible to access, unhelpful, unapologetic and they take far too long to respond. If and when they do, I haven’t found them to be helpful or interested in my issues and queries. There isn’t any clear information informing customers that all vouchers take at least 24hrs to be activated in their system either, so if by some miracle you happen to get to the point where their website and system actually recognises your voucher, you’re unable to use it straight away and village don’t seem to think this is important to mention. Many of their vouchers and deals don’t even last the minimum 3 years before expiry, with most expiring after 12 months. I have always preferred village over other cinemas but after so many poor and terrible experiences, it’s clear they don’t care about customer support or satisfaction.

'participating' restaurants and was told at the end of a very expensive meal that the restaurant did not accept Gourmet Traveller gift cards (silly me, I didn't think to check with the restaurant BEFORE we booked! Naively assumed if they are listed as participating, that they would honour the gift card that has already been paid for). Learnt my lesson so contacted another 8 restaurants to check if I can redeem my voucher before booking, cannot find one we can travel to! To Gourmet Traveller, update your restaurants list as it is very misleading. To any potential buyer of gift cards, do not waste your money, the recipient will only be left disappointed.

It has a denomination of $25 -$500 Purchased 19/12/2025 tried to use it to do shopping and had to cancel the shopping at a busy time of the year there isn't any PIN NUMBER. I rang (07) 5660 6022 I went to MyBalanceNow.com. Total waste of time.

emailed gift card was actually in the Spam folder the second time round, so it's a good thing to check if you have problems. I now have a delighted Daughter-in-law! This is her birthday present. If you're stuck for a gift you can't go wrong with one of these cards to treat them to a facial or massage or other wellness service. She's a hard-working Registered Nurse so just perfect to destress her!!

Woeful delivery and order management and then appalling customer services. It’s a completely waste of an hour in my life, yes it was that long to resolve the issue. They are plenty others with great service out there.

contacted Best Gift Cards on their email address provided but my emails were returned undelivered. I contacted Paypal as I had made my payment through them and on May 16, 2025 the card was delivered to my sister's email. No apology or communication on the late service, which they said would be activated within 72 hours.

This is the WORST gift card. I purchased a Vanilla Mastercard with $300 credit in December 2025 then by mid Jan 2026 and it stopped working with $120… Read more

credit still remaining. No reason given why it was blocked. I have called the help line on 24 January 2026 and get someone in India and I was told a replacement card will be issued in 30 business days. I was given a case number and have followed my card with 7 phone calls as the replacement card was never issued. I sent an email with images of the card to their email address I was given and still no response by today 7 April 2026. THIS IS A SCAM AS I BELIEVE PEOPLE OFFSHORE ARE RIPPING OFF THE BALANCES.

They need your whole online identity just to release a card you've already paid for. If you need a card after hours or on a weekend, stay far away this company is the definition of not fit for purpose.

This gift card is deceptive in how it works. You purchase a gift card in a "category" and then you can only use that gift card at certain retailers.… Read more

There is no list of retailers in which you can use the card.

The retailers have a nebulous category assigned to them that you as a consumer would have absolutely no way of knowing. The onus is left to the consumer, to go into a shop that you guess might me related to the category and attempt to use the gift card. The transaction will fail if the category doesn't match and from my experience the categories are nonsense. I purchased a Health and Wellness gift card assuming that I could use it at my gym. But the gym is classified under the department store category.

Now I have worthless card that can only be used at really specific retailers and no way to obtain a refund. There is also no way of changing which category the gift card can be used for. The company will not refund as they treat the gift cards as "cash".

Just be extra careful buying any gift card from this company, I would not recommend anyone use this company but if you do, call them up and ask about the category of the retailers you want to spend at. To me that makes this useless as a gift, as the person you gifted to has no way of knowing which retailers will be accepted. You'd be gifting stress and anxiety.
