The Gift Card offers great flexibility providing you with the options to “part spend” it in a wide variety of outlets. You don’t have to use it all in the one shop
Why do I need to know my Balance?
Retailers do not have access to check your balance at their tills. If they attempt to process the Gift Card for more than the balance on the Gift Card the transaction will be rejected. Retailers need to know that they are not attempting to deduct more money than is on the card, if you do not know the exact balance you may elect to tell the retailer to deduct a sum off the card that you know is below the current balance.
Using your Gift Card with a participating Retail Partner
The Card may only be used in participating merchants.
When you present the card in payment the merchant will be required to seek authorisation for the transaction by communicating through modern electronic communications technologies; we will not be liable for any loss of any kind suffered by you due to disruption or failure of such electronic communications technologies.
Sales Transactions are a matter between you and the merchant and are governed by consumer law. We are not a party to the sales transaction and we have no liability in any matters whatsoever arising from the purchase of the goods or services. Our involvement in the transaction is only as payment provider and is confined exclusively to matters arising from the use of the card.
Should you be due a refund from a participating merchant we will not credit the amount of any refund due to your card. All refunds are a matter between you and the merchant.
If at any time you believe that any Sales Transaction has been incorrectly debited from your card you must advise us immediately by phoning us at 01-5542000. We may at our discretion request that you put your query in writing and that you provide documentation to verify your identity such as driving licence, passport or utility bills. We will investigate the transaction and may reinstate the transaction amount to your card if the transaction is found to be fraudulent, unauthorised or completed without any negligence on your part. If the transaction is found to be fraudulent we may provide details to the relevant authorities to investigate further.
Should you use the term “split transaction” most retailers will understand this that you want to use the Gift Card and another method of payment to pay for the items.
Card would not work at a Retailer
There could be several reasons why your Gift Card failed at a retailer. The balance on your Gift Card may be less than you thought, the physical Gift Card could have expired and may need to be replaced, there may have been an issue with the retailer’s card processing terminal or the magnetic stripe on your card may have been damaged by a magnetic field. Some of the most common items that contain magnets are phone covers with magnetic clasp, iPad tablet covers, clasps on wallets, retailer tag demagnetizer or even your fridge magnet. You can check the balance online by visiting www.me2you.ie/howtocheckbalance
If the balance on your card is correct then please contact our Customer Service team on +353 1 554 2000to investigate further.
