Choice Vouchers Gone Bust - Spend Now

  • Got mine exchanged for Sainsburys vouchers. When I have ordered vouchers from them normally get them in a few days but I got mine exchanged soon after the shops weren't accepting them. Farepack took slightly longer in exchanging them, about ten days if I remember correctly. I would e-mail them.

  • Can anyone advise what to do with Choice vouchers received by my children as Christmas presents? I understand the company is in liquidation - is there any way the vouchers can be used?

    See the website: http://www.choicegiftvouchers.co.uk/
    "TO OBTAIN AN EXCHANGE OR REFUND OF VOUCHERS IN YOUR POSSESSION YOU SHOULD, IN THE FIRST INSTANCE, CONTACT THE AGENT OR COMPANY WHO SUPPLIED THE VOUCHERS TO YOU"

    High street shops won't take them now.

    They might, but I doubt it.

    I received the following on 9th Feb but deleted all personal info for this post.

    Dear Consumer Club Member
    You may or may not have already heard that "Choice Vouchers" went into
    receivership as of 1/02/2006 and all vouchers in circulation are now
    invalid.

    Our suppliers have agreed to replace any Choice vouchers we have
    purchased with another type but they have not yet confirmed in which store
    the vouchers will be redeemable other than it will be a popular high
    street store. In view of this, please print off this email and return it
    to us together with all Choice vouchers you may still have, as soon as
    possible, ensuring that the following information is correct:

    Membership No*: ******

    Title*: ******* etc

    *Required fields
    Please ensure that you enter the total value of the vouchers you are
    enclosing with your letter as we will only exchange vouchers where the
    documentation matches the contents:

    It is important that you include all the requested information in your
    letter in order for us to be able to verify and replace invalid
    vouchers.
    Please note that you will need to return all the above information by
    (or before) 28/02/2006 in order to receive a replacement. We will not
    be able to exchange any vouchers received after that date.
    Please return your printed email and your Choice vouchers (you can keep
    the High Street ones as they are good)
    to the following address:
    ******** *******
    National Family Opinion Consumer Club
    Rye Park House
    London Road
    High Wycombe
    HP11 1ZT

    You can send them freepost by writing the following at the top left
    hand corner of your envelope:
    Response Licence No: *****
    Thank you
    Kind Regards

    Where did you get those vouchers from? Since it's been about 8 months since they went bust, I don't know if the company you bought them from would honour the return, but you might be lucky.

    If you bought them since February, then the person/company selling them might have done so in the knowledge that they're not worth the paper they're printed on.

    In either case, try and approach whoever you bought them from, and see what they can do.
