    Tried to use one of these useless cards in the Post Office today to be told you can't use them in a Post Office. I did point out it said Royal Mail on the card and was told rather rudely no, I asked why it was called a Royal Mail gift card then!! Answer: Well you can buy Debenhams, New Look cards in Tesco but doesn't entitle you to buy Tesco items with them. I pointed out that these cards dont have Tescos logo all over them, unlike the Royal Mail branded gift card. I can't see the point in the cards, no one wants to accept them, even the retailer!!! Very very frustrating. DON'T BUY THEM.

    I think it's a bad idea to buy any sort of gift card in the current economic climate. Thousand of people have been left out of pocket through various company failures

    My comment may have nothing to do with the original thread, but people are allowed free speech, and allowed to add they aren't suprised that anything to do with the Post Office sucks or goes wrong.

    Suppose you're in favour of the astronomical postal price increases too?

    Never mind...
