Well it is the holiday season but it looks like some companies may be taking advantage of consumers. Apparently there is an issue with a few companies who own shopping malls offering gift cards that are backed by American Express and Visa. It looks like the problem is if the gift cards purchased are not used within a year monthly service charges are deducted. If you check out https://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/case/mall_gift_card there is more information on the mall companies involved and the specifics. There is also a free case evaluation provided for those who may have purchased such gift cards. I found this of interest and hope that it might be of some help. kr0
