One4All is rediculous
One4All is rediculous. These gift cards cannot be used as part payment on Johnlewis.com; your order needs to match the card balance or be less than the card balance. After 18 months one4all will charge you if you have any unused balance. You cannot add to the balance. It doesn’t work for online purchases using Apple Pay. If you want to withdraw the balance they charge you £7.50 for the privilege. Ended up using it to buy a John Lewis gift card in Tesco, which I then redeemed as part of my payment for an item on Johnlewis.com. An absolute faff. Not worth the hassle, they basically just make it difficult for you to spend your money, and then give you a time limit on when to spend it by. Cannot comprehend why anybody would choose to purchase one, utterly pointless

Hi, Unfortunately, when spending online the balance of the gift card must cover the full transaction cost as most retailers do not have an option online to add another card
You can use this as part payment instore simply tell the cashier the value on your card and they can swipe this through, and you can pay the balance. Most retailers can accept up to three forms of payment, but it does depend on each individual retailer if part payment is accepted.
We want you to enjoy spending your gift card and to treat yourself to something soon! It's best to spend your gift card within the first 18 months. After that a nominal operational and processing charge of 90p commences monthly. We would be happy to return any amount deducted so please reach out to our Customer Service team via email at help@one4all.com. Once the request has been submitted, any lost amount will appear back onto your gift card in 1 working day.
