      I filed a dispute because a $250.00 digital **** gift card I received was already activated when I went to do so. I have provided all the requested documents they have requested: - A valid government photo-issued ID showing your mailing address - A utility bill for address verification - Full name - Mailing address - Phone number Now they want me too send them the following:- A clear color selfie holding your ID. Please ensure that your upper torso, shoulders, arms, and hands are fully visible in the picture, along with the ID.This is nothing more than a stalling tactic in my opinion given they already have my government issued photo id, my drivers license, It is taking them way too long and they continue to delay rectifying the issue. This doesnt seem like a legitimate business. This company lacks credibility. I just want my $250.00 back.

On July 25, 2025, after reviewing the given documentation it was determined that we still needed a screen shot of the original email as well as a clear image of the utility bill.On July 26, 2025, Mr. ***** sent our team the requested information. On July 28, 2025, after establishing ownership of the card our team informed Mr. ***** that a dispute case would be opened on his behalf.

On August 10, 2025, our dispute team requested the following: images of the front and back of the card or the original email, selfie holding the *** Purchase receipt, copy of the utility bill, a filed police report, and a completed dispute form confirming all the disputed transactions.

      On August 11, 2025, it was confirmed that all required documents were received, and we would move forward with our dispute case. Dispute case CDS0292434 was opened on Mr. ***** behalf. That same day the dispute was won in Mr. ***** favor, and a credit was issued. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Mr. ***** may have experienced.

      I received a gift card from ************************************* in the amount of $100. I hadn't used the card in a while, and when I went to check the balance on their website, I was directed to call the number on the gift card. I spoke with a representative and a manager at that number. They informed me that the card has been compromised and I can no longer use it. They would not tell me how it was compromised. The card has been in my possession the entire time. According to them, the only way that I can resolve this issue is to send them a proof of purchase for the gift card, which I do not have (it was a gift). This seems like an unreasonable request and a bit of a scam.I had already made a purchase on ****** for $45.19, so there is a remaining balance of $54.81. I am requesting that they refund me the remaining balance of $54.81.

      Dear Aspen,

      On August 6, 2025, Blackhawk Networks (Blackhawk) received a complaint from ***** ***** regarding a $100 gift card they are unable to redeem.

      On August 6, 2025, Mr. ***** contacted us by phone regarding his concern about not being able to redeem his gift card. Case CS17113755 was created to assist Mr. ****** and one of our customer service representatives advised Mr. ***** that his gift card ending in ********************************************************************************************* incorrect website instead of our official website. We also informed Mr. ***** that a copy of the proof of purchase was required to unblock the gift card. Mr. ***** requested a supervisors assistance, who explained to Mr. ***** that the requested documentation was required to validate the ownership of the card. On the same date, an email was also sent to Mr. ***** requested a copy of the proof of purchase of the gift card. On August 7 and August 8, 2025, we attempted to contact Mr. ***** to request proof of purchase to proceed with our investigation and have yet received a response.

      As of todays date, we have not received the requested documentation from Mr. ****** In order to insure that we are investigating thoroughly and accurately, a copy of the proof of purchase of the gift card is required to validate the ownership of the gift card. We encourage Mr. ***** to respond to any of our previous emails from Case CS17113755 with the requested documentation. We also encourage Mr. ***** to contact our **************** team using the phone number located on the back of the gift card for any additional insight. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Mr. ***** may have experienced.

      My sister and I received Delta vouchers to redeem through this website, but after completing the process, there is no information about any of our cards on the site that manages the virtual ******** simply states that weve already redeemed the vouchers, yet there is no trace of my $1,600 virtual card.I have tried to contact this company multiple times, but no one responds. Whats even more concerning is that there is no record of our cards anywhere.What happened to the money? What happened to the cards?This website seems highly suspicious, and I am demanding the return of my $1,600. Otherwise, I will take legal action and file a fraud complaint.

      On August 5, 2025, Blackhawk Networks (Blackhawk) received a complaint from **** ****** regarding virtual gift cards that were unable to be locate after redeeming the Delta vouchers.

      Our record showed the two gift cards ending in 3386 ($300.00 USD) and 1453 ($500.00 USD) were sent to the email address provided within Mr. ******* complaint. Our record also showed that the email address provided in his complaint, ********************** is not associated with the other two gift card redemption codes provided. We recommend Mr. ****** to review any other alternative email addresses he may have for the corresponding voucher codes. We also encourage Mr. ****** to review the Junk or Spam folder within his email addresses as the gift cards may have sent to those folders due to the email setting. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Mr. ****** may have experienced.

      With this, we consider the matter resolved.  Please, do not hesitate to reach out to us with any further questions.

      I received a gift card from someone and they blocked it after 2 transactions. They are asking for proof of purchase for a GIFT. That is not impossible however if you are gifted something there is no way to provide proof of purchase because I did not purchase it. Feels like a scam especially since the have been ordered to pay ******* from their data breach settlement.

      My brother purchased a gift card for me and sent to me via mail. When I received the gift card it was still in original packing and still had the security logo sticker a crossed the cvv information. The envelope was still closed. When I attempted to activate the card, it had been reported as stolen. I am unsure how anyone could have even access the information as the card was still sealed in the packaging and the cvv number was covered with the sticker. I filed a complaint with ************************** and they sent me a transaction history that someone had made 2 charges using $396.57. The card was purchased 7/23/25 and loaded with $400.00. The purchases were as follows: 7/28/25 G*GOAT091#*****, ***********, ** $77.70 on 7/28/25 **** O***************, ************ $318.87. I am concerned that possibly someone within the company is doing this as the card was completed sealed and had to be torn open and the security sticker was still intact. I would like this money replaced.

      You made me open a debit card to use funds from an equifax lawsuit, and then charge a 1$ monthly inactivity fee. Afterwards you make it very difficult to cancel the card by not having the appropriate representatives or process. Very fradulent tactic.

      I purchased two $200 gift cards less than one year ago. Today I opened the packaging and tried to use them, and they were both declined for some unknown reason so I was unable to make the purchase. I tried calling the customer service number while still in the store, but was taken through an obnoxious, complex menu and was unable to get help. Now that Im home, I registered the cards and both show $0 balance with todays charges pending. The cards were both declined so I was unable to make the purchase, yet the charges are shown as pending! I FINALLY reached a customer service person, ******, who said it could take 7-10 or 14 days for the charges to get put back on the cards! I explained that I was purchasing items for someone in a nursing home who needs these items asap. ****** said he would transfer me to a supervisor who could expedite the process. But the call was disconnected after a lengthy wait. I tried calling back, and went through the ridiculous menu, only to be disconnected again. The website is absolutely no help in resolving this.I never would have paid the $4.95 or $5.95 to purchase these cards if I knew what trouble I would have using them.

      Complaint Case: ********

      RE: Complaint # ********, ****** *****

      Dear Aspen,

      On July 28, 2025, Blackhawk Networks (Blackhawk) received a complaint from ****** ***** regarding roadblocks with redeeming a virtual **** card ending in 7637.

      Our records show the card is active with a balance of $75.75 as of today's date, with one declined transaction for a gold and silver dealer and no pending transactions. The card may be used at any online merchant that accepts **** as a method of payment; we invite ******** to review the Terms and Conditions for this card for more comprehensive information regarding how the card may and may not be used. Should Mr. ***** wish to have the funds disbursed in an alternative method, we would recommend having him contact the program administrator for additional information as we cannot do so on his behalf. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience ******** may have experienced.

      With this, we consider the matter resolved.  Please, do not hesitate to reach out to us with any further questions.

      Best Regards,

      Complaint Case: ********

      RE: Complaint #********, ******** ******

      Dear Aspen,

      On July 26, 2025, Blackhawk Networks (Blackhawk) received a complaint ******** ****** regarding unauthorized transactions due to their phone being hacked.

      On July 26, 2025, we received a phone call to report unauthorized activity against a MasterCard settlement card ending in 5973. Dispute Case CDS0273598 was created, and an email was sent with a Dispute Form, requesting photos of the front and back of the gift card,a photo of the purchase receipt or activation receipt, a bank statement if the card had been purchased with a debit or credit card, or a utility or phone bill to validate his name and address if a purchase receipt or activation receipt was unavailable. Mr. ****** was also advised that the Dispute Form must be filled out and sent back to us so we may begin our investigation with the merchant or merchants in question within ten (10) business days, to allow thirty (30) to ninety (90) calendar days from the date we receive all required documentation for the investigation to be completed, options on how to submit the form by email and by fax, that they would receive updates at each stage of the dispute investigation including the final resolution, as well as an explanation why the investigation takes that long.

      The Dispute Case was closed on July 26, 2025, and we made multiple attempts to reach out to Mr. ****** to confirm that they received the replacement card that was sent as a security precaution. Our records show there are transactions as recent as July 30, 2025,against the balance of the card. The current balance of the replacement card ending in 4740 is zero as of today's date. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Mr. ****** may have experienced.

      With this, we consider the matter resolved.  Please, do not hesitate to reach out to us with any further questions.
