Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. People appreciate the user-friendly website and the speed of delivery, with many noting how easy it is to purchase and send gift cards, especially via email. Consumers highlight the ability to personalize messages and the convenience of electronic delivery, which is particularly useful for last-minute gifts. The efficiency and helpfulness of the customer support team are also frequently praised, with staff members being commended for their prompt and understanding assistance in resolving issues. However, some consumers have reported issues regarding orders and the ordering process. Some reviewers encountered difficulties with payments using international cards, as the system requires a UK postcode. A few customers expressed frustration with the limited options available for certain gift cards and the lack of clarity regarding the type of voucher received. While many found the customer service helpful, others experienced problems with non-delivery of vouchers and confusion navigating the website.

I placed an order for an e-voucher gift…

I placed an order for an e-voucher gift card using a different email address to my PayPal email address, and for this reason I didn't receive the e-voucher. After making an enquiry I was advised "the email address on your order must match the one linked to your PayPal account". In my opinion if this is the case the payment process should not allow you to complete the payment transaction. Buyers beware!

Voucher still not received

I’ve purchased the e-voucher but nothing has come through (despite the email confirmation saying it will be emailed within ‘minutes’). And yes, checked all folders including Spam and Promotions! It’s been 2 days.

Sadly it’s not the fault of gifted but I was scammed and someone hacked into my phone and proceeded to purchase multiple gift cards. I am now trying to get everything reversed, and it’s proving to be a nightmare. I’m sure gift card is a brilliant idea but on this occasion I just feel triggered.

Don't buy travel gift cards

Don't buy travel gift cards, thats misleading practice. You'll end up booking trip with third party company who will cash in booking fees, what otherwise can go towards your trip ,if you book it from direct travel company.

Hi Mr. Valdis Krulko,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it can be when booking costs reduce the value of your trip.

While we always aim to provide clear information on the redemption process on our website, please note that we have no control over third-party booking fees or pricing policies. Upon checking, our support team was still able to relay your concerns to Inspire, and they were able to price match the booking you preferred with minimal difference. We hope this demonstrates that we do our best to help whenever possible.

We truly appreciate your feedback, and it will help us improve how we communicate these details in the future.

If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at support@giftcard.co.uk.
