After receiving and reviewing Revdex.com complaint number *** and the corresponding order number, it appears that the
current resolution is warrantedOn March 28, the customer purchased Bloomingdale’s gift cards from Raise with varying values and purchase pricesThe customer then contacted Raise Member Services on July 9, and expressed to the serving agent that the gift cards could not be used the second time they were attempted, this summerAt that time the serving agent informed the customer that the order fell outside of the Day Money-Back Guarantee and a refund could not be offeredThe customer was also offered a courtesy review of the order by the Gift Card Support Team, as orders so far outside of the Raise Guarantee are not usually reviewedAfter the review was completed, unfortunately, it was determined that a refund would not be provided to the customerWhile gift cards do not have an expiration, the Raise Guarantee protects the purchase price of all gift cards purchased on the marketplace for the first days from the purchase dateAfter that time, a refund or replacement card cannot be offered in the same way it would within the first daysAs a member to member marketplace, we encourage members to utilize the balance of gift cards within the guarantee period, so that if an issue were to arise, it would be fully covered under the Raise Guarantee
Being a member to member marketplace, Raise does not purchase or sell gift cardsRaise is the facilitator of these transactions between buyer and seller across the marketplace and understand how this can be confusingWe do sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this has caused the customer
At this time, we would like to consider the issue resolved, and look forward to better serving the customer again in the future

After receiving and reviewing Revdex.com complaint number *** and the corresponding order number, it appears that the
current resolution is warrantedOn December 5, the customer purchased a *** *** gift card with a balance of $for a purchase price of $The customer then contacted Raise Member Services on July 16, and expressed to the serving agent that the eGift card was no longer being accepted at *** ***At that time the serving agent offered to reach out to the seller of the gift card, as a courtesy, as the sellers are only required to hold the physical copy of a gift card sold as an eGift/voucher, for days from the purchase dateAt that time, sellers discard or destroy the physical cards to prevent unauthorized use of the physical version of the card
Unfortunately, the seller of the gift card had discarded the gift card and no longer had the physical gift card to send to the buyerAs the Raise Guarantee for this order lapsed as of March 14, 2016, no further action could be taken on the orderThe Raise Guarantee is in place to protect the purchase price of a gift card for the first days from the purchase dateAfter that time, we are happy to look into a gift card but cannot guarantee a refund or replacement in the same way we would within days
While we understand this has been an unfavorable situation for the customer and are unable to provide a refund or replacement card, we would like to offer a Raise Rewards credit of $100.00, to use toward a future purchase on Raise, as recompense for this issueThe credit has been placed into the customer’s Raise account and will automatically apply to the next purchase made on Raise through the customer’s accountWe would like to offer the customer our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused by this order and would like to consider the issue resolved at this time
After receiving Revdex.com complaint number ***, we were able to review the customer’s Raise account and have already
provided the requested solution to the customerThe customer sold a *** card through the Raise marketplace on July 14, with a balance of $for a purchase price of $After it was purchased through Raise, the buyer contacted the Member Services Team and expressed that the gift card did not work for a purchase, so the purchase was refunded of the buyer and the funds were removed from the buyerAfter this occurrence, the seller contacted Raise and informed the Member Services Team that the buyer did indeed use the card, as the seller did not, and was able to provide a transaction history for this particular gift card
As this proof was submitted, the debit on the seller’s account was reversed and there is now no negative balance on the accountThe account does still currently have a hold on it, but this does not take access away from gift cards purchased through RaiseAny gift card in the customer’s account can still be accessed through the web browser but will not be available in the appThis hold prevents any gift cards from being purchased or sold on the marketplace through this particular accountThe account will remain in this state unless the customer agrees to the terms set forth by the Seller Support Team, to provide proof of purchase on future gift card listings due to the volume of gift cards being sold through this particular Raise accountWe would like to apologize for any inconvenience this has caused, and if the customer has any further questions, the Seller Support Team is more than happy to provide further information
Raise failed to notify its customer the extremely high possibility of someone else using their purchased gift cardFrom my past personal experience of buying more than 6-7k gift card, 90-% of my gift cards purchased were used by someone else after day guaranteeSome gift cards does not even have the right amount of balanceThe customer support is also extremely sluggish
After receiving and reviewing Revdex.com complaint number *** and the corresponding order numbers, we are able to offer a solution to the customer.On February 23, 2017, the customer purchased *** *** gift cards across two orders(Raise Order Numbers *** *** *** The gift cards
had a combined total value of $and the final purchase price was $These cards were egift/vouchers, which meant they could be redeemed both in store and online.The customer contacted Raise via email the same day informing Raise that there was no section on *** website to redeem gift cards onlineThe supporting agent responded back on February 25, 2017, informing the customer that this was a temporary technical issue on *** website that would be resolved within a day or twoThis information was obtained by our Trust & Safety team who had reached out to the brand to find out more about the gift card not being able to be appliedOur Trust & Safety team also updates the redemption information for any brand, whether that be gift card limits, what a gift card may or may not be used to purchase, and if a brand is no longer accepting gift cards.On April 13, 2017, the customer reached out via email for the second time and had informed Raise that they had been attempting to use the gift card and there still was not a field to input the gift card information via the *** websiteThe customer also requested a refund due to the cards not being able to be used online, an in-store location was not near the customer, and the brand was filing for bankruptcy.On April 14, 2017, an email was sent from Raise to all customers who had purchased an *** card recently informing them that the brand was going out of business and all gift cards would stop being accepted on 4/22/As stated by the Raise Guarantee (https://www.raise.com/guarantee), we are unable to provide a refund for gift cards that are no longer honored when a retailer goes out of business, or files for bankruptcy.Unfortunately, a supporting agent was not able to respond back to the customer until April 28, Based on the timeframe, and the information that was provided by the brand in regards to the gift cards, the supporting agent informed the customer that the gift cards were not able to be refunded due to the brand going out of businessThe supporting agent also provided the customer with $in Raise Rewards as an extension of our apology.After taking a closer look into these orders however, we understand the frustration this has caused as the customer was attempting to redeem these cards but was unable to due to the brand not having a section to redeem gift cards onlineThe redemption instructions that were provided on Raise were coming directly from the brand so we apologize for any confusion and miscommunication that occurredAlthough we are unable to provide a refund back to the original payment method, we would be happy to provide a refund in the form of Raise RewardsWe would like to offer the customer $in Raise Rewards that will be in the member’s account and can be used at their earliest convenienceThese rewards will automatically apply at checkout so there is no need for a special promotional code.We would like to consider the issue resolved at this time and hope that the customer finds a refund in the form of Raise Rewards a suitable settlementWe once again, would like to apologize to the customer for any confusion and inconvenience this order has caused over the past couple of monthsIf the customer would like to receive the refund via Raise Rewards, we ask them to please send us an email at *** and we’d be happy to have those added as soon as possibleAny other questions can be sent to that email address as well
After receiving and reviewing Revdex.com complaint number *** we are happy to offer the customer the requested resolutionOn August 15, the customer listed six *** eGift cards on the marketplace for saleThen on August 16, the customer requested payment for these gift cardsDue to the
high value of the cards sold, all being $500.00, the Seller Support Team reached out to the customer for further information regarding these gift cardsTrust and safety are top priorities on the Raise marketplaceThe customer was asked to provide personal verification as well as information regarding the purchase of the gift cardsAfter this information had been received, as not all of the pieces of information corresponded to one another, the customer was asked to wait until successful use of the gift cards by the buyers had been confirmed over a week’s time before the funds could be requested againAs that time frame has past and the sales have been successful, the customer’s funds have again been requested for direct deposit and will be processed within the payment processing time of 3-business days.We would like to apologize for any inconvenience this process caused for the customer, and are happy to have been able to offer the requested resolution
Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because this is an unacceptable resolution, nor does the so-called should there be a limit on a "money back guarantee" If you are offering a service, from a third party, you (Raise) should be held completely responsible There is no day statute of limitation on being defrauded by a company, as I have, and neither does an offer of $compensate for the amount I spent I advised Raise that while they would not be able to get this money back from the third party (for whatever internal reasons they had and didnt advise), that I should have at a credit on my Raise account to purchase other gift cards totaling the amount that I PAID FOR GIFT CARDSAnother acceptable form of resolution would be for Raise to reach out to their member data base and see how many customers like myself have been defrauded by purchasing gift cards and later them having no balance on the card Again, this is not my first issue with Raise I have purchased many gift cards in the past that have either had no balance (within their money back guarantee time frame) and I have been EMBARRASSED while attempting to use them and then find out they had no money one them (at which point I had to pay for services at a time I thought I had a gift card to cover my expense); or I have partially used a gift card and then later tried to re-use it and was met with the same problem Either within or outside of their so-called "guarantee", they have to have a better system in place to protect the consumer - and THEY ARE NOT DOING THAT The public needs to be aware and alerted of what is going on - as there may be others out there and dont know how to proceed with getting their matters resolvedAgain, if Raise credits my account for the entire amount purchased for the *** ** *** gift cards, wherein I can purchase another gift card (for immediate use), then I will be satisfied and consider this complaint closed Otherwise, I will continue to pursue this matter, including finding a way to notify other Raise consumers in the hopes of a class action resolution
Sincerely,

current resolution is warrantedOn August 6, an order was placed through the member’s Raise account for two *** gift cardsLater on this date, the customer contacted Raise Member Services and expressed that this purchase was made by the *** cashier while typing in the gift card numbers from the gift card from the Raise WalletThe process to add a gift card to the cart on the Raise app, and checkout, cannot be done directly through the wallet and does take multiple steps before checkout can be completedIn a situation where the purchase has been made from the member’s device as an accidental purchase, a refund cannot be offeredThe Raise Guarantee does not offer refunds for accidental purchases
The customer’s call was escalated to a supervisor on the Member Services Team and the same information was reiterated, that the cashier had accidentally placed the order while accessing the *** gift card numbersThe Member Services supervisor again explained the Raise Guarantee to the customer and apologized that the gift card could not be refunded for an accidental purchaseWe can also confirm that the purchase was made through the customer’s mobile deviceThere is a multiple step verification process in which customers must verify their device when logging in, and this was not done for another device at the time of this order’s purchase

and so you contacted Member Services for more informationYour order was placed on 9/5/and our Shipping Policy states that you should receive your gift card by mail in 3-business days
We received your first inquiry on 9/12, seven days after you placed your orderOne of our agents informed you of our shipping policy and that we would refund you if there is no tracking after fourteen daysUnfortunately we cannot issue a refund until those fourteen days have passed, per our policy
