Hi Kawal,

You didn't say that there was a charge for the gift card. I assumed that
maybe this was a promotion since, for example, Apple often does something
like that for Back to School, e.g. I think here in North America if you
bought a Mac computer you would get a gift card of a certain value at no
charge.

I don't want to argue with you since I wasn't there, but somehow I have a
hard time understanding how there was no option to unselect this gift card.
I have often seen this with other companies, they add some sort of related
item to your cart and you have to unselect it otherwise you get charged for
it. Like I said, I don't want to claim that this I sdefinitely so, but at
some point you come to a place where you agree to buy whatever is in your
cart and if you didn't want the gift card then it's your choice not to
continue and to order the iPhone over the phone or at the store so you could
have asked not have this included. Anyhow, I do assume you buy apps from
time to time and I think you mentioned KNFB Reader which means you just paid
the 25 Pounds a couple of weeks earlier since you can apply the balance to
your next app purchase. I use Gift Cards almost exclusively for buying apps,
music and so on since I can buy them when they are on sale anywhere from 10%
to 20% off which means I can quite often pick up a $50 gift card for $45 or
$40, once I even got it at Safeway for $37. Then I buy  2 or 3 depending on
how good the deal is and I'm set for a year or 2 with credit I can use for
my purchases and anything I buy basically costs me 20% less. Redeeming a
gift card is also a piece of cake, just scratch the number, go to the app
store app, find where you redeem a card at the bottom of the Featured tab
and choose to scam the card, then hold it in front of the rear camera and
it's done.


Regards,
Sieghard

I am saying, I was forced to have this iTunes gift card in my basket and it
cost me £25 which I did not want so there is no such thing as free.  So tell
me how is that free when I had to pay £25??
