Update by user Mar 03, 2020 Please see the updated post I just wrote. Update by user Mar 03, 2020 Resolved. Wow. Believe it or not! I was promised a refund on 2/14/20. Of course, nothing happened. I contacted them the next week and they said I needed to wait 5-10 business days. I didn't. When I contacted them again, they said they couldn't refund my account because the transaction was so long ago! WHAT?!?! They offered to give me a gift card in the amount of $50 for whatever place I desired. I suggested Walmart. They said it would be there on 2/28/20. It arrived digitally into my PayPal account just before MIDNIGHT on that day! You can bet I went in and spent it right away on 2/29/20. And it worked. Thank God. However, I will never do business with them again. But to be fair - I wanted to post a resolution. Update by user Feb 03, 2020 2/3/20 - Well, I've been working with EJ Gift Cards now for over a year. The customer service is TERRIBLE and I still have not received a refund. I will now call them every day, email them every day, and fill out an online contact form every day. I cannot even believe they are still in business! Here's a copy of the letter I sent today:Order #-----ID #-----Date of purchase: 9/26/18Card number -------------------PIN: ----Dear EJ Gift Cards,I purchased this card for $42.50 (see above). It was worth $50.00 and was for American Airlines. I was unable to use it for the intended purchase and saved it.

I asked that, if you no longer accept gift cards from American Airlines that I’d like the refund in another way.

Here we are again! I’m cutting and pasting this into a new email, plus I’ll try to submit in your contact form online. Plus I’ll be calling your customer service department. WHERE IS MY PROMISED REFUND??? Update by user Nov 27, 2019 11/27/19 - After emailing and calling DAILY for a couple weeks, I began to receive some personalized email responses. I finally had a chance to communicate - I think - with someone named Joy Yula. On 11/19/19, she wrote and said that a full refund had been credited to my account on 11/15/19 and to allow up to 11/25/19 for it to post. So I stopped communicating, thanked her, and waited. Guess what? It never posted. Like I'm surprised.... Let the emails begin AGAIN!!! Update by user Nov 01, 2019 11/1/19 - I've left more than a dozen voicemail messages at their customer service department over the past month. I've also sent multiple emails and ABSOLUTELY NO RESPONSE!! Original review posted by user Oct 11, 2019 I purchased an American Airlines card worth $50 for which I paid $42.50. When I verified the balance upon receipt, it was there. Three months later, it was still there (I verified myself). I went to use it and it was gone! I filled out all the appropriate forms (claim form, customer service form) at the website plus emailed them with details. I was told it was being looked into. The next week, I checked again and it was zeroed out. I wrote to ask what was going on. No response. I was then prevented from filling out a claim form because my original order number was now "resolved" and I couldn't write without it! I've called and emailed almost daily for two weeks. No response!!
