gift card

I received 2 gift cards for fathers day from my kids. It would be nice if the amount of the card was noted as well as the sender. I might add that this is pretty much standard for gift card these days.

  • I argee with bass-n-bob. If someone hands you a new book, or a pair of socks for your birthday you don't ask, "How much did these cost?" You shouldn't have to ask on a gift card. I received two for Father's Day and neither had the amount on them. I know, just be glad I got something, but that isn't the point.
  • Wes - my point was to have GS/CW look at a better way to handle gift cards in the future. Not rocket science - others have figured out how to do this in a customer friendly manner.
  • Hello All,

    All that can really be done in this circumstance is that a request be made to see if we can place the Monetary Value on the Gift Cards. However that is all I can do. Again on the Gift Card is there a 1-800 number to call to find out the Card's Balance?

  • True, he could just ask the kids how much they gave...but that's not the way it should happen. We recently received a message from Amazon stating that our daughter just sent a $50 gift card. That's the way it should happen. We then knew who sent it and for how much without having to ask her "how much did you give me"?

    I think that's what the OP is trying to say, perhaps I'm wrong.

    I know this may sound crazy, but why don't you ask your kids? :h
  • It sounds like you received an EMAIL notification from Camping World that you have 2 gift cards but it didn't say how much or from whom...If so, I agree that you now don't know who to thank and how much $$ you have. It should be done much better than that, for sure!
  • I received 2 camping world gift cards at the same time with no identifying who they were from or the amount. Another gift card I received at the same time from Disney indicated the amount, who sent it and a message from the sender.
  • Hello bass n bob,

    Thank you for your posting on this. I want to just verify that you got Camping World Gift Cards or Good Sam Club Gift Card, the reason I ask is that we don't offer Good Sam Club Gift Cards. Typically on the back of the card there should be a number you can call for the balance of the card, is there not one listed?

    My guess is that you have to go on line to find out right?
    That's how they get your email and personal info to add to their infamous mailing list. Good luck with that.
  • I usually keep a Sharpie in my pocket....I make notes on the gift cards when I use them at the store....remaining balance and I guess I could also not who it was from, if my kids gave me gifts! :B
    Usually, I only use the cards once or twice, os it's not as big an issue, but I can understand your issues.

    If this is your biggest problem....consider yourself a very, very lucky man!!:B
