Gyft has started scamming (self.beermoney)

lazytech が 投稿

Found Gyft from this sub so I figured they were legit.

Unfortunately after a couple successful transactions I decided to make a larger one.

They took my bitcoin, never gave me my gift cards, and now are repeatedly closing any support requests I make.

I strongly suggest no one uses them if you want to keep your money.

I have been tweeting at them, msging them via facebook as well as posting on their facebook. been using em for years without issue except just recently did the biggest giftcard ive ever done to convert some BTC I had to AGC to buy a GTX 1080.

It is worth noting that their app listing violates google developer policies and can be reported here: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/contact/takedown

since this is their privacy policy page they link on GPlay https://www.gyft.com/privacy.html. not sure about reporting for ios (sorry guys). the BBB seems to have a failing mark for them and they don't seem to care, nor do they have a working phone number to reach.

best of luck to you OP, but I wouldn't hold out hope.

edit: gyft just sent me a refund! I tweeted em, had friends tweet at them with lots of followers, msged via fb, posted on their fb wall, emailed them, opened 4 more tickets and just got notification from coinbase. so not sure what the winning ticket was to get a refund, best of luck to anyone else who is having issues.

Why not use btc to buy a card directly from say newegg? Sucks that now they suck.

using beermoney I had like $350 in agc already applied onto my account, rather than use "real" money for the entire card I wanted to pair up what I had.

Ok that makes sense :)

I learned the hard way too. They said they had an issue with my PayPal payment and it would take 3 hours to get my gift card. 4 months later and I still don't have my beloved Target gift card.

"I need my gift card."

The anthem of this sub.

Wow! I guess I should stop using them. I've bought ~$2500 worth of gift cards.

At least with GCX you know you are screwed (or not) right away ;)

As u/shabbypenguin mentioned, I would keep reaching out. Specifically twitter and keep tagging them.

Best of luck!

Does anyone know a good alternative? Specifically one that allows purchase of amazon gift cards through paypal? I've had a couple issues with Gyft too.

They've screwed me multiple times, they're awful.

This has also happened to me last week although it was only for a $10 kohls giftcard.

Same story. Went to pay via bitcoin and after 6 confirmations the order was erased from my transaction history and the giftcard never arrived. There's no sign anywhere on Gyft.com that i even ordered the gc. I attempted to talk to their CS but was told to take it up with coinbase and quickly dismissed.

This is ridiculous.
