I was worried for nothing
So I got 2 of these on a lightening deal. Sometimes (especially on lightening deal) I buy quickly and then go back and read reviews later. After I read the reviews I was terrified that I would get one that looked used (I was purchasing as a gift,) there would be nothing/only a portion on it, or the place that the person I gifted it to wanted to use it wouldn’t take it. This is all I read when first reading reviews. However, I had already purchased so there was nothing I could do at that point. Since I read such horrible reviews, I decided to keep it for myself. I didn’t want there to be a problem with the card after I gave it as a gift. I’m pleased to say that both cards looked crisp and new and I had no problem at all in using either one. I actually used one of them at multiple stores and stores that other reviewers had said the store wouldn’t take. The main thing to note is you have to use these as credit. Everywhere I used these the cashier knew just what they were and how to use them. At the end, if you have a balance left you can split the transaction so that you can use the full amount. You’ll need to know the balance but checking the amount is extremely easy. Overall, these are great to gifts because the person you are giving it to has the option to use at multiple places. Not to mention if you keep an eye out Amazon is often offering these on sale so they can be a great deal on places that you usually can’t get a deal at. I highly recommend. They really are very simple to use and are the perfect gift idea.
