3 edits | Meh I don't like gift cards. Give me a check in the mail. I gave you a check! Why is every company going this route now-a-days? at&t did this and many of the rebate companies are doing this too. What is the reason that these companies want to go the gift card route? Do people not use the entire balances on these Visa "gift cards" in time or what? Are there transaction fees? What's the deal...
It's irritating and difficult to use all of a gift card balance. If you try to get gas on them, you have to go inside. If you go out to it, it's not for the exact amount of the card. It's hard to keep track of and not worth it. I just want the cash so I can spend it where I want and when I want without any strings attached...
Oh, and I don't always want to bundle... I'll NEVER get a triple play. Double play with TV and internet is the most I'll do. I don't want contracts either. Forget that! |

Norristown, PA | I just take the gift cards and apply then in full to my Verizon FIOS Account. Nothing to remember and since I send them a smaller check it's as close as I can get to receiving cash. |

I just took the gift card to my credit union and they 'cashed' it for me.  |

What's the deal all the crap fees you get with prepaid credit cards! the card that Verizon gave me a couple of years ago didn't have any fees. If there were any they must have been after 12 or 24 months. I used it all in a few months. |
