I had the same problem as numerous other people. I have purchased 3 egift cards for Fridays. I checked the balance when received and balance was as advertised. Then the balance disappeared. I am in Fla. The card was used in Times Square about 2 weeks after i purchased. Leads me to believe that they are selling the same egift card multiple times unless they are stupid enough to buy egift cards from people. Will dispute through my credit card company.

The CardCash guarantee is only good for 45 days. This is a very short guarantee period as their competitors have longer guarantees. There is something wrong with this company as it seems to have an unusually high number of cards that go to zero shortly after the guarantee period (sometimes before the 45 day guarantee period is up). They seem to buy from people who are dishonest and if you let a card go past the 45 day guarantee, someone else uses the card and the honest purchaser (me) is left holding the bag. This has happened to me on at least 3 occasions. If you are absolutely sure you will use the gift card within 45 days, then it may be worth the risk as they have given me a refund on bad cards within the guarantee period. But, if you do not use your card within 45 days, you are hanging out there and may very well lose whatever balance is left on the card. I do not recommend CardCash until such time as they significantly lengthen their guarantee period.

This is an update. As I thought so far. We are dealing with a 3rd world group who have given my information to a Third party software firm. I have written this Racheal who touts to just write her and she will solve your problem. False SO FAR. I will see is my security issue is resolved and write a review to let All others know what happens. Please like this review if you also have a security issue as this will help build a list for others to get theirs resolved. Thanks All... Bob

After several positive experiences, purchased restaurant gift card. Checked value on reception and was good. Due to schedule did not get to use for 80 days. Discovered card was voided 5 days after my purchase. Original card purchased with stolen credit card. My request for refund denied due to being past 45 days. Since "Cardcash" claims superior fraud department, I appealed to follow through on reporting the fraud. Since they only profited from scam, no interest shown in following up. Will avoid in future.

Only buy cards if you can use them yourself within the 45 days. After that the money is usually gone. Don't buy cards to use as gifts. Many scammers sell cards on this site. Costco told me people buy gift cards there-list them on card cash site and then return the card after the 45 days for a refund. I didn't know you could do this but day 46 the cards are usually worthless and customer service is no help. BEWARE of a purchase on this site.

I purchased 5 GCs and 2 had $0 balances. CardCash did refund my money for them. Another one had $50 balance at CrackerBarrel. I used $28 worth for a balance of $22. Within a week later, it was $0. When I asked CB about it, they said the $50 GC was purchased with a stolen CC and they set my balance at $0. I notified CardCash and they said since the purchase was made more than 45 days ago, they were not held liable. I am now in process of disputing the charge through my CC company. If you do purchase from CardCash, use the cards immediately and use them for the full amount. I won't be buying from them again - read the lousy reviews on this company.

Edit: CardCash finally did offer to refund my money, but my CC company already took care of it. I told them I had already been made whole. They did not want to refund any money until they heard about my review. I now consider this case closed. For future reference, please use your card as soon as you can and use it all up at once.

One I tried to use and discovered the 0 balance and was able to get a refund. The other they refused to refund because it was past what they said was clearly advertised as a 45 refund policy. Just be aware that you might have both worthless cards and a clock ticking on your purchases!

I have bought numerous cards from this outfit and recently more than half of them turned our to be worthless, or worth less than paid. Most of the bogus cards I was able to notify the seller before my 45 days warranty period were up and received an adjustment. Sometimes in checking a card's balance immediately after purchase it will appear that the card has the advertised balance but subsequently the balance will go down or disappear. I recently tried to use a $50 card for Texas Roadhouse for the first time and discovered the number was invalid; CARDCASH advised me that I am beyond the 45 guaranteed days but in spite of that they provided a refund.
