Easy to navigate site and choose gift card. Quick email delivery. Would give 5 stars if there was a user friendly print at home option similar to the Amazon print at home gift voucher.

Hello Billy Bryant,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I'm genuinely sorry to hear about the frustration you experienced. Waiting days for something that should arrive quickly is understandably disappointing, and it’s not the sort of service we want anyone to go through.

Digital gift cards are normally generated and sent within around an hour of purchase, so the delay you encountered was far from typical. Earlier in the week we did run into some technical issues that affected the automatic creation and sending of HelloFresh gift cards. According to our records, these problems were resolved a few days later and your vouchers were then generated and sent on.

Even so, the inconvenience and uncertainty caused in the meantime shouldn’t be overlooked. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the disruption. It’s not the standard we aim to provide.

Modern technology is brilliant when it works, but it does leave us all rather dependent on systems running smoothly. When something falters, it quickly reminds us how limited we can feel without it. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding while things were being put right.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly in case you have any further questions, comments or concerns at support@giftcards.co.uk.

With kind regards,

Hello Sean Hanna,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I’m genuinely sorry to hear that your digital gift card hasn’t arrived yet. That’s understandably frustrating.

Our e‑vouchers are normally generated and sent within an hour. Gmail in particular likes to tuck them away in the Promotions folder, which can be a bit hidden on mobile. If you’re using Gmail, logging in on a desktop usually makes that folder easier to spot.

From what I can see in the correspondence with our support team, your voucher was resent on Saturday and again yesterday, so it should be somewhere in your inbox setup.
If it’s still nowhere to be found, please do reach out to our support team again. We're more than happy to look at alternative ways to make sure you receive the voucher you paid for.

Hello Karl West-Snith,

Thank you for taking the time to share this. I’m genuinely sorry to hear how frustrating the experience felt. No one should be left confused when trying to use a gift card, especially in situations where it’s meant to support people who really need it.

Just to clarify, we’re only a reseller of various gift cards, so we don’t control how each brand sets up activation, barcodes, or wallet‑based redemption. Even so, your comments about unclear instructions and disappearing barcodes are concerning, and we’ll be passing this straight to the provider for review.

If you still have an issue with a specific code, our support team can look into it directly and help get things sorted. Please don't hesitate to reach out at support@giftcards.co.uk.

Hello Carl,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm genuinely sorry to hear that you’ve been caught up in a scam. It’s an awful experience for anyone to go through.

When fraud takes place, the scammers usually spend digital gift cards straightaway, which sadly means we’re unable to cancel the order or recover the funds once they’ve been redeemed. We completely understand how frustrating that is, even though the situation is outside our control.

I strongly recommend getting in touch with your bank as soon as possible so they can block your card and guide you on the next steps. It’s also important to report the incident to Report Fraud at https://www.reportfraud.police.uk/, so the authorities are aware.

If there’s anything else you’d like us to look into, or if you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us directly at support@giftcards.co.uk. We’re here to help where we can.

With kind regards,
