Customers, don't buy any gift cards loosely on racks from here. My Father-In-Law purchased an Amazon Card that had already been redeemed. 5 phone calls between Fred Meyer and Amazon, and the problem wasn't resolved. Why, because a thief redeemed it right there in the store and put it back on the rack. Fred Meyer doesn't have to pay for that, the customers do. After 1.5 Hours of being on the phone the only way they claimed they would fix this is if my Father-In-Law would call because he purchased the card. That is BS. He's 74 years old, 85 lbs., doesn't own a phone, pays extra taxes he doesn't owe, so the IRS doesn't bother him. I know he won't make that call because he hates dealing with businesses on the phone as well. Living on a fixed income, he was a victim of someone else's crime but the store won't take responsibility. That's why I say, don't buy Gift Cards off the rack unless they're locked up like they do the shavers. I don't care about my gift, I care that my Father-In-Law lost $100 by purchasing a Gift card from the Federal Way, WA Fred Meyer that should've been locked in a case to ensure he's getting what he paid for. I'm so disappointed in how businesses only help if they lose money.
