Here are some tips how to use gift cards :

• Read the terms and conditions as soon as you get the card and check the expiration date.
• Record the card’s ID number and the customer service telephone number, and keep the information in a safe place until you’ve spent all of the money on the card.
• If you didn’t get the card’s terms and conditions or original receipt, ask for them from the person who gave you the card.
• Take care to safeguard your card. If it is lost or stolen, report it to the customer service number immediately, supply the ID number, and request a replacement.
• Spend the value on your card before the maintenance fees start. If your card expires before you’ve had the chance to exhaust its value, contact the customer service number. It might be possible to extend the date, although you may be charged a fee.
