Re: Citizens 1st visa gift card, think twice about giving one to someone
California made it against the law to charge like these fees several years ago. Sadly, the practice is pretty common in many states. Your best bet is to petition state legislatures to ban this practice (and of having expiration dates on gift cards). Get the media involved although I doubt the Sun or any TV media will support this but perhaps Ocala and Orlando media will. It truly irks me that a company will make the money via interest and investments on the unused gift cards and then charges an individual for not using them promptly.
