how long are gift vouchers valid ?

Options
I have a 'gift voucher' for a restaurant. It was a present from relatives and is in the form of a sheet of headed paper from the restaurant stating that the value is £30.00, authorised by Miss X general manager but signed by Mr Y and dated2/11/2009. There is no expiry date. Is it still valid ?

The company have recently opened a new restaurant in the chain in myy local town, is the voucher valid there ?

    Hmm,

    Would it not be a good idea to contact Miss X or Mr Y and ask them?

    I would say it is unlikely though, over two years old and for a different branch, possibly even a franchise with different owners?

    Is it even transferable from your relatives to you?
  • It shouldn't have expired without an expiry date but may only be valid at the issuing restaurant if it is a franchise etc.
    Thinking critically since 1996....

    Now this is excellant advice OP, contact the restaurant where it was purchased whether on the phone or in person and ask if its still valid and if it can be used at the restaurant thats closer.
