Wagamama gift card

Potclay

I have a Wagamama gift card but can’t use it as the restaurant is closed and unfairly I think they won’t accept it on a Click and collect order!
I think it is wrong that they are still selling gift cards that can’t be used.

What's the expiry date on the card? Lockdown won't last forever...

Their website says:

sorry, you can't use gift cards on click + collect or pay on your phone just yet. we're working on this, and hope to make it available soon

I'd query the wisdom of buying a gift card for a restaurant in this current situation - even if the area was in a low tier at the time.

The writing was most definitely on the wall.

Don't buy them, then.

You have 13 months to use them, they've not been closed for 13 months. If it's close to the expiry date you should email them.

Who gave you the gift card ?

You can use it but once your nearest restaurant is open.

2 things concern me, 1 is buying a gift card with Covid is around and 2 its on rocky ground when the owner might decide to close some restaurants and your nearest one is on the list for closures.

Well, yes, the world is faced with what it was not prepared for.

Restaurants have reopened since the OP posted this - back in January 2021.
