Gift cloud referral voucher issues

Hi,

 

I need assistance as I’m going around in circles with this issue. I referred my father to TalkTalk through the partnership with TalkTalk and Giftcloud, with the promise that we would both receive a £50 voucher once his billing commenced.

 

On January 20th, I received an email confirming that my father had completed the switch and that I would receive my voucher within 10 days. It is now March 3rd, and I have still received nothing.

 

The initial email clearly instructed me to contact hello@giftcloud.com if I did not receive my voucher within 10 days. Despite following this instruction and raising two separate tickets, I have yet to receive my reward. My first ticket was acknowledged, but all follow-ups were ignored for almost four weeks, forcing me to open a second ticket just to get a response. This is completely unacceptable and reflects extremely poor customer service. When I referenced my first ticket in the second request, I was then told to raise this issue with TalkTalk instead.

 

At this point, this feels like blatant false advertising. I have upheld my part of the agreement by referring my father, and as a loyal customer across multiple family households for years, I am extremely disappointed by the lack of resolution and accountability. I am being passed back and forth with no one taking responsibility.

 

This partnership between TalkTalk and Giftcloud needs significant improvement, particularly in communication and the fulfillment of promised rewards.

 

I would appreciate immediate assistance in ensuring that both my father and I receive the vouchers we were promised.

 

Many thanks,

Hi I presume your father hasn't had the voucher either.  Can you add your fathers account number to the private notes section of your community profile and I can sort this out.

Almost 4 months on and this is still yet to be resolved. 

At this current moment I believe this all to be 1 big false advertisement.

 

I’ve been a loyal customer for years over multiple households. This is shocking.

Hi animal_

 

There is a note on your account advising you are eligible for the voucher, they are working through a backlog at the moment.  

 

Sorry for the delay.

@animal_, I've seen some customers being simply awarded the cash amount by Talktalk which at least covers the promised value. 

 

I'll re-escalate this for you.

Thanks. 

 

Are there any updates? I was told on January 20th I'd be receiving my voucher shortly.

 

Giftcloud have now confirmed the following after months of no response:

Hello,
 
We’re really sorry that we’re unable to send you a reward for your purchase with TalkTalk.
 
Unfortunately, due to changes on TalkTalk’s side, they have had to use an alternative method to reward their customers instead of issuing vouchers. As a result, we are not currently able to fulfill any rewards on their behalf.
 
We understand this may not be what you expected when signing up for the offer, and we appreciate your frustration. However, TalkTalk has assured us that an alternative reward will be provided to customers who reach out via the following link: TalkTalk Reward Card.
 
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your understanding.
 
Best regards,
 
This feels like either a huge scam or a bad partnership between TalkTalk & Bettercloud. My father and I should not be having to chase something that was agreed and promised.
 
Thanks,

Good luck with this. There are some many other complaints about these gift vouchers there must be something wrong with this voucher system.
