ABC Gift Cards

I called in to see about my order number to ABC, and had a very nice lady answer the phone. She promised me I would get my two gift cards by 1:17 PM. I called back at 1:45 PM talked to the same woman. I got a run around she gave me an option to cancel my order. I told her I was wanting the gift cards that had already been processed with Paypal. I then went out on line and looked at the reviews. After reading several of these reviews I see a pattern here. I called back and cancelled the order and told the gentleman that I wasn't happy about the lying and I would make sure that people knew about my experience.

I tried to sell a gift card that had $44.48 on it. I knew it had that amount because I got a balance right before I entered it. They took a dollar out to process then I got an email saying my gift card was declined. Then when I tried to use my gift card there was no money on it.

I spent over $1K on gift cards. It was a nice size order. I liked that there was a 45 day money backed guaranty. However, time after time, I would go to the restaurants and there was a zero balance. I would contact ABC and only after several emails would I get a refund. This was not an isolated incident. I am fully confident that these empty gift cards are a part of their business plan to generate profits. Recently, another gift card came out empty and I brought iit to their attention. Stacy responded that it had been 62 days since purchase and rejected my claim. To sum it up, I ended up losing money and time with these bogus cards. Stay away!

Use your purchased card(s) within their 45 day guarantee or else you're out of luck. I purchase gift cards to have on hand when I need them and often don't use their entire balance within 45 days of purchase. I purchased a $25 Dunkin Donuts card and learned it was deactivated when I tried to use it. I called Dunkin Donuts and they told me it was deactivated because it was a fraudulent card. I had a similar experience with a $25 Subway card I purchased. It also was deactivated due to being fraudulently obtained. I could not get a refund or credit from ABC Gift Cards or their sister company, Card Cash.

Be aware with restaurant gift cards

Be aware of purchasing restaurant gift cards from Abcgiftcards. So far 3 of my cards have been declined in resaturants. 2 of which i can't Get refund because your are force to use them in 45 days. So bot worth buying a good deal. I purchased one right before we sat to eat and guess what yes it was declined. I use 4 different site for gift cards and will continue to use the other 3. Not once did i have a problem with. Abcgiftcards are crooks

Stay away from ABC Gift Cards. An online resale site that sells a very high percentage of gift cards with no balance. I know this because Ive visited many complaint/scam sites that have reported this. Unfortunately I also know this because I have recently been a victim of ABC Gift Cards. I bought a Maurice's gift card for $104.53 with no balance on it! I also hold Gift Card Granny responsible because they knowingly continue to do business with this fraudulent site. I will not continue to do business with either in the future! Do yourself a favor and stay away from ABC Gift Cards and Gift Card Granny!

This website is AWESOME! Want to buy a gift card, but don't have a lot of cash? BUY every type of gift card imaginable at up to 30% discount! Do you have gift cards but would rather have cash? SELL it to abcgiftcards.com! Got gift cards for stores you don't really shop at? TRADE them in for gift cards to the stores you want! All transactions are guaranteed! Payment methods accepted are credit card and PayPal.

My teenage daughter was doing really well in school, so I decided to reward her with a mini shopping spree. Purchased several gift cards for Subway, AMC Theaters, Hot Topic, Charlotte Russe and Wet Seal. Total value = $150 Price I paid = $100 My daughter walking around the mall like a BOSS = Priceless:-)

I bought three gift cards from these crooks.
I received them in a timely manner, but when I went to use them a few weeks after receiving them, I found that all three cards had a zero balance.
I contacted the merchants that the cards were for, and was told that all of the cards had been previously used and had zero balances.
The cards had actually been completely used up three weeks prior to me purchasing them from ABC Gift Cards.
Why didn't ABC Gift Cards check the balances before listing them on their website and subsequently selling them to me?
When I contacted ABC Gift Cards, they said they would look into it and get back to me.
When they finally did reply, after me sending numerous messages to them, they said the cards did have a zero balance, but because it was outside their (lousy) 45 day guarantee, that I was out of luck.
So I ended up filing a dispute with my credit card company and hopefully will have my money refunded.
These guys are CROOKS!

I tried to sell a Dominos Pizza gift card to ABCgiftcards. I was rejected because I am high risk. I have an 800 plus credit score! They also took my American Express credit card info. Who is at risk now - ME! I'm going to have to monitor my credit card for fraudulent charges now. Who knows who they might have working there.

Tahoe Joe's restaurant rejected an e-gift card we purchased from ABC Gift Cards. We ordered a plastic card but we're sent an e-gift card instead, basically a photocopy of a TJ gift card and some instructions. The manager said that these cards are fraudulent
And wanted to know where we got this fake, non-plastic card. By the way, the ABC name is an acronym for Always Being Corrupt

I requested a refund from abcgiftcards.com. I was out of the country and could not go to the retailer that the card was for. I contacted the merchant and giftcard. Was told that the card was not verifiable because the merchant was having technical difficulty and was not able to verify the amt. I tried calling back 5 times on different days, and the site was still down. As far as i'm concerned my gift card is invalid and I have lost my money! Bad business.

After the 90 days guarantee the money can disappear from the gift card, like it happened to me. The card was cancelled by the original owner and the money taken. ABC answer: "Buying from any Marketplace involves the classical Risk vs Reward decision". No refund or replacement for the lost money.
DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!

Bought a Patagonia GC with a supposed $200 balance. Spoke to Patagonia customer service and could tell right away that it was FRADULENT. ABC GC customer service is shady. They only deal with refunds over email?! And they expect you to sit on your $#*! waiting for them to email you. I asked to be transferred instead and the guy told me that he couldn't. WTF. And shame on Gift Card Granny for offering this site. TERRIBLE.

I have dealt with this company for a long time as a purchaser. This is the first and last transaction I had as a seller. I tried selling a Lowe's gift card I received for almost $1200. I sent it to them in September 2017, and I received it promptly back in the mail. I couldn't locate any phone number on their website to inquire why my card was returned. Well, it's now January 2018, I'm trying to resell the unused card. I called to get the balance... THE BALANCE IS $15.85. They cleaned me out of $1180! I'M ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS AND I WILL NOT STOP UNTIL EVERYBODY IS MADE AWARE OF HOW SHADY AND SCANDALOUS THIS COMPANY IS!

WHAT EVER YOU DO, STAY AS FAR AWAY AS YOU HUMANLY, POSSIBLY CAN FROM THIS COMPANY.

First of all, when I filled this out it said "E Gift Card" that I was exchanging so I figured that's what was happening. No mention of shipping until after I completed the transaction. It asked for all of the information and then I went to fedex and paid ten dollars to ship it. Upon arrival, it took them days to just email me that it was "flagged by their system as high risk"
And sent back. I called them to see what the heck this was about, they couldn't tell me anything said they will email me within 24 hours. I told the gentlemen no, call me I want someone to explain to me WHY this is high risk, and if so, why didn't your system pick up on that before I paid to ship it!? No call. Ever. Poor response to emails and no explanation ever.

What's worse is I had a TV I was going to buy with the gift card, and since it took them so long to send it back, Best Buy (my card) sold them out they were an old model special. Now, I will have to pay another $1000 for the same TV (not doing it now).

These company is garbage, there is no nice way to put it.

I sold 8 shoe carnival cards mailed them to them and got paid a lil late but got paid cpl mos later sold them 5 cards totaling a payment of $800 however when it came time to pay got a payment of only $175, when i called them they said there was a problem with the cards i sold them a cpl mos ago. Now that wouldve been impossible, the pin numbers werent even scratched off so i went ahead n checked the transaction history on the cards they claimed had zero balances had been used the same day they recieved the cards i knew that because i had them delivered to be "signed for only"when i related to them this info they hung up on me how unproffesional these ppl are.

I purchased a Costco gift card. Tried to use and it had $0 on it. A total hassle and run around trying to get my refund. It's been a week and still no refund!
Deplorable customer service!

Scam ALERT!
I bought a couple of Kohl's gift cards, but after I put all my information including credit card, address, and personal information, they canceled my order without any explanation and NEVER refunded my payment. They now have all my information what is my biggest concern. I already disputed the transaction with my credit card company and reported them to the IC3 and also requested a replacement credit card. BEWARE! STAY AWAY FROM THOSE FRAUDSTERS!
In case you need gift cards, go to legit websites like: Raise, Cardcash and Cardcookie.

I HAVE SOLD SEVERAL GIFT CARDS TO THEM, SOME i MAILED IN, AND SOME I DID ON LINE TO GET PAID LESS, BUT PAID FASTER. NEVER ANY PROBLEMS I GOT MY CHECK IN THE MAIL IN ABOUT 9 DAYS AND THE DIRECT DEPOSITS IN ABOUT 6 DAYS. THIS COMPANY I GREAT!

Please! Dont waste Your money: Although s complete fraud it will take a lot of Your time and likely more thsn You have invested in legal fees!
They are already rock bottom in BBB ratings- Check Your State Atyorney General to see if You have an actative statute that prohibits the devaluation of a gift card: Minnesota does but too busy with cops shooting people at the moment!

I CHECKED THE BALANCE ON MY PANERA GIFT CARD (at https://www.paneracards.com/checkbalance.aspx) SOON AFTER I RECEIVED IT FROM ABC GIFT CARDS, AND CONFIRMED THAT ITS VALUE WAS $90.94. HOWEVER, WHEN I TRIED TO USE IT FOR THE FIRST TIME (AFTER ABOUT 1.5 MONTHS), THE CASHIER AT THE PANERA IN RESTON, VA SAID ITS BALANCE WAS ZERO. (THIS MADE ME ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED!)
ABC GIFT CARDS RELUCTANTLY SAID THEY WOULD REFUND MY PURCHASE PRICE AND PROMISED TO COMPENSATE ME WITH A WEBSITE CREDIT FOR THE INCONVENIENCE. I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE REFUND, AND NOW THEY SAY, SORRY, NO WEBSITE CREDIT. WORST GIFT CARD COMPANY EVER!

There are many many reviews that explain how often ABC (also known as CARDCASH) sells worthless gift cards. I bought from them and didn't have a problem until buying a Lowes merchandise credit. Their shipping is very slow in general so the Lowes card arrived after I had already purchaed what I needed at full price. I saved it. When I went to spend it, I was told it had been used at store 1802, THREE MONTHS BEFORE It was SOLD TO ME (spent October 2015, bought from ABC in January 2016). Nice. I contacted the company & was told their 45 guarantee is stated clearly on their website, they have millions of gift cards so... tough. This is the hottest guarantee of any of the card sites, btw. Nice. Thanks for passing your losses on to the customer. Also stated clearly on their website is how they have 3 layers of fraud protection which is obviously bull. So, in one transaction, all the money I have ever saved buying discount cards was stolen by ABC./CARDCASH. It is not worth ever doing business with them again. You have been warned.

I purchased a $25 gc from ABC/CardCash on 11/29/17. I used it successfully a short time after, for a small amount, and still had $23 left on it. I checked my balance on 1/25/18 and it was still good. I went to use it on 2/8/18 and it was declined for... a zero balance! I checked the transactions online and there was a customer service debit for the remaining $23 which zeroed out the card. I called Panera and they told me that it was sold by a secondary company and very often these cards are fraudulent. They told me to contact that company. I did.

ABC/Card Cash refused to help me. They refused to refund my money or even give me a new card. They stated it was outside their 45 day policy. I told them that the transaction history stated there was a customer service debit that did not come from Panera, so it had to come from ABC. They told me, in essence, I was out of luck. I contacted my credit card company to dispute and GiftCardGranny. GCG told me they deactivated ABC on 1/12/18 due to other reasons and they were not offering their cards on the GCG site anymore.

I reported them as fraudulent transactions but in essence, they committed theft. Would not a reputable company simply refund the $23 to maintain good customer service and take the loss? Years ago companies did. But not them.

Companies like Gift Card Zen still maintain good customer service and have a good reputation. I have had problems with ABC before and tried them one more time. Never again! Buyer Beware and steer very clear of this company! Thats why there are so many negative posts about them. They are a very shady company!
