Gift Card

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query at Microsoft community.

I understand your concern and will guide you in the right direction.

1. Are you referring to Windows store to buy gift card?

If yes, I suggest you to refer the Microsoft store link below and check if it helps.

Microsoft Gift Cards aren't activated?

I went to Target today and bought 2 $25 Windows Microsoft gift cards. I went home and put the codes in but it said they aren't activated. I took the cards back to the store with the receipt and talked to the Guest Service. The lady there told me that they
can't refund it or return it and that I had to call the Microsoft number. I called the number and tried to get to an employee but can't talk through the system since it didn't have an option directly for gift card problems. I was able to get a hold of one
employee but he just hung up on me when I was talking. And here I am now. I was hoping that you guys could help me. I'm going to take the cards back tomorrow and see if they can anything about it, but if not, then I'll just sleep on it and never buy another
Windows Microsoft gift card again.

 

Using a Microsoft gift card for purchases

Thanks for your response.

I do get a method of payment option, but it does not list my Microsoft account. There is also a place for debit/credit/gift card payments, but my gift card number does not match the spaces needed.

Any other suggestions?
