Buyagift experience vouchers...

Does anyone else think Buyagift or experience vouchers in general are a rip-off?!

I've been trying to book a two night hotel break with one for months now yet all I keep getting is, 'Sorry, no availability,' despite the fact I could book through their site :mad:

The latest response was that it's a 'Promotional voucher,' and is subject to availability!! But they do have availability and I'm not talking for a suite, I'm talking a basic room, which costs £120 for two nights...these vouchers were supposedly worth £199 :mad::mad:

Am I being unreasonable to be annoyed with this fact?

Buyagift customer services are trying to be helpful to be fair but no-one wants to tell me exactly what the 'availability' is based on...

Anyone else had this/similar problem?

    No.

    Likewise people who pay to have a photoshoot. Madness. You pay to get harrased to spend hundreds on pretty pictures of yourself.
