Annoying

[emilyB]

I purchased a Kohl's gift card for our daughter's birthday and mailed it in plenty of time to California along with a birthday card to a friend in England.  Guess which one arrived first - yes the UK one and the post office told me that they call California 'the black hole' because mail is so slow to get there and vice versa.  However that's not my gripe.  When she finally received it (late) she went online to purchase something for herself from Kohls who have a lot of good sales at the moment.  She also has a Kohls charge account.  She inputted all the info and they came back to her and said the gift card was not valid.  She then called Kohl's customer service and they told her they could do nothing about it and they even told her where it had been purchased (Safeway) and the town in Oregon.  They said it's Safeway's problem not ours.  Luckily I have the receipt and approval and she gave me all the numbers on the Kohls card and texted me a pic of it.  I called our local Safeway and spoke to the Manager and he said I had to call corporate office in Arizona and the gift card dept. is not open on weekends.  I asked him why they are selling gift cards that are not valid and why should the customer be out of pocket - it is their responsibility.  He said if I have all the details and receipts, corporate office might give me a refund.  He said scammers sometimes remove the gift cards and the strip from the back, copy down the numbers and then put it back.  Why bother to put it back and unless you actually purchase it and get a little slip of paper at the cash register that says "approved" then that story doesn't pan out.  We'll see what happens when I call them tomorrow and probably hold on the line for a long time. 

I'm now a bit worried as I have bought a lot of other gift cards for family members for Christmas (not Kohls) and I'm hoping they are not going to have problems with them.

It's getting to the point that I'm going to just start giving out cash again and be done with it all.

Our mail is so screwed up at times that we need to hand deliver important mail.

luv, never answer any emails regarding your accounts or credit cards.  Call the office directly and verify the number you're calling as the actual office you use.
