Gift cards

Think I probably know the answer, but I was given a reasonable amount of cash on a gift card for Moss Bros for Christmas. While not wanting to sound ungrateful, there's nothing that they're selling that I really want or need.

I switched to working from home 4 days a week, and already have a vast collection of suits. There's nothing shirt/casual wise that appeals, and in honesty never really has from there, and I don't really need anything else for the wardrobe.

Am I likely to be able to return it, considering it was a gift? I think the money could be put to better use on more important things that I actually need.

  • According to their website, no exchange is possible.
    17. Gift Cards

    Gift Cards will have the same usage rules as currently in place for gift vouchers i.e. they are non refundable, items purchased via gift card can only be refunded back onto a gift card, they have an expiry date and if lost they cannot be replaced.The Terms and Conditions can be found on the reverse of the gift card. The terms are:
    17.1 Gift Cards can be used as full or partial payment in any of our stores or our website.
    17.2 Gift Cards cannot be refunded or exchanged for cash and no change will be given. Note: no change means that money will not be returned to the customer. If (s)he only partially redeems a gift card, the remainder of the balance will stay on the gift card.
    17.3 Anything purchased or exchanged using a gift card can only be refunded to a gift card.3

    As I thought then. Guess I need to use it before it expires, even though I don't need a thing from there!

    Thanks for confirming, as I didn't find that when I looked on their site.

    you could always list it on ebay - may not get full value but it is an option if there is really nothing you want to buy

    I was going to suggest the same. Normally it isn't far off.

    If you can't sell it online, maybe you can buy a gift for someone else from there?
