Author Message Char d Yahoo User Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 1:48 pm    Post subject: Can a restaurant cancel their gift certificates? The restaurant changed owners but did not change the name or anything and now they have a notice up saying they will not honor any gift certificates issued before the sale of the restaurant. Is this legal? The restaurant is in Colorado. Thanks Back to top lisette1908 Yahoo User Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 1:50 pm    Post subject: Yes, they do it all the time. Retail stores do it too..

The old restaurant made the money and never provided services. The new restaurant is not responsible for taking on the old restaurant's debts.

Some businesses sell the cards on Monday and go out of business on Tuesday. That seems like fraud. I now use all certificates as fast as possible..

Back to top Gertie Yahoo User Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 2:00 pm    Post subject: I'm going to suggest contacting the Better Business Bureau and reporting them. when a business changes hands the new company receives the money (is paid for by an individual) for these gift certificates. If this new company doesn't want to honor the certificate I would make a really big deal out of it.Is there a date on the certificate? Back to top
