Cannot be trusted
October 30, 2017

I purchased a $42.91 Dunkin' Donuts gift card for $29.74. I went to load the gift card into my DD app, and got a message saying, "Card already registered." I emailed the company, and they responded saying their policy is that DD gift cards cannot be loaded into the app. Huh? Why not? Also, this immediately raised my suspicions, because if it's already registered, that means someone else has access to the card. Well, since there wasn't much I could do though, I went about using the actual gift card (well, email gift card). I successfully used it three times. On the 4th try, the cashier told me the card was deactivated. Well, well, well. So, someone else DID in fact have access to the gift card I was using. The only reason I'm not giving them only one star is because they did refund me the money (well, minus the amount I used). But I will certainly never trust, or use, this company again.

Stay away from ABC Gift Cards. An online resale site that sells a very high percentage of gift cards with no balance. I know this because Ive visited many complaint/scam sites that have reported this. Unfortunately I also know this because I have recently been a victim of ABC Gift Cards. I bought a Maurice's gift card for $104.53 with no balance on it! I also hold Gift Card Granny responsible because they knowingly continue to do business with this fraudulent site. I will not continue to do business with either in the future! Do yourself a favor and stay away from ABC Gift Cards and Gift Card Granny!

USE CAUTION
September 13, 2017

Please use great caution when purchasing discount gift cards from them. While they seem to have the "best" deals; there is a reason for that. Many, too many of their cards are stolen and will not work. I'd rather pay the extra 1% and use a reputable company.

I bought 2 cards and right after I ordered, I found my mistake and requested cancellation. But the company ignored and shipped it and said no refund. I recommend not buying any gift cards from this company due to avoid any further troubles.

DO NOT BUY!
September 12, 2017

I bought 2 gift cards from this online company. One valued at $50 for Panera and one valued at $100 for francesca's. They were both gifts. Both people who received the gift said that once they used them for the first time the balance was zero. They credited me back what I paid for the $100 card but not the $50 card because it was outside of the 90 days. This is BS! I have bought several gift cards from other companies and never had an issue. I will never buy from them again and I will be sure to share how awful this company is with social media and my friends/family.

Be aware with restaurant gift cards

Be aware of purchasing restaurant gift cards from Abcgiftcards. So far 3 of my cards have been declined in resaturants. 2 of which i can't Get refund because your are force to use them in 45 days. So bot worth buying a good deal. I purchased one right before we sat to eat and guess what yes it was declined. I use 4 different site for gift cards and will continue to use the other 3. Not once did i have a problem with. Abcgiftcards are crooks

Lost my money ($200)
August 31, 2017

After the 90 days guarantee the money can disappear from the gift card, like it happened to me. The card was cancelled by the original owner and the money taken. ABC answer: "Buying from any Marketplace involves the classical Risk vs Reward decision". No refund or replacement for the lost money.
DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!

Stay away! I tried 3 times to purchase gift cards from ABC Gift Cards and each time my order was cancelled immediately after my order was confirmed. I opened ticket #******* to find out why my order was flagged by their fraud systems as high risk. I've used the same credit card to purchase 2 other gift cards from CardCookie and Cardpool with no problem. Obviously there isn't a fraud issue going on, but they refuse to investigate it.

A ripp off!
July 17, 2017

Please! Dont waste Your money: Although s complete fraud it will take a lot of Your time and likely more thsn You have invested in legal fees!
They are already rock bottom in BBB ratings- Check Your State Atyorney General to see if You have an actative statute that prohibits the devaluation of a gift card: Minnesota does but too busy with cops shooting people at the moment!

ABC Gift Card is knowingly obtaining gift cards that have been purchased with stolen credit cards and from other countries via scams. Anyone that has had problems with this company, needs to file a complaint with the FBI Internet Fraud Department at https://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx

This is the only way to put an end to this site and to stop these crooks.

Last month, I bought a $500 gift card and upon trying to use it, it had already been redeemed. The next $500 gift card for the same merchant was already used. Don't you think ABC would check the balance of the remaining cards? No, I received one more $500 gift card for the same merchant that had already been used. Very poor service. They are intentionally trying to steal your money.

Buyer beware. ABC will not make customers whole when the gift cards they purchase have a zero balance. They will not refund you the money, give you a credit or contact the criminals with whom they so business. Do NOT BUY from them.
