I have proof that one of the Chicago stores gave me a used gift card for a gift card that I purchased and gave to a friend for Christmas. After waiting more than two weeks for them to look into the matter, they said that there is nothing they could do about it. Lucky for me I use a great credit card company that promptly returned my money when I disputed the charge and gave them the details. I will never shop at Zara again and I encourage everyone to stay away. Everyone makes mistakes and obviously they are not willing to admit it when they do. Shop at your own risk. I was not surprised when I went to write this review there were so many other poor reviews.
