Can’t use voucher online

published

Very frustrating not being able to book online with gift vouchers! And no contact number to call. I have submitted an online enquiry several times with no responses.

Gift Cards - terrible, tell your friends not to buy them!

published

Hi,
I have been trying to redeem my tickets online, same as the previous people " IT DOESNT ACCEPT " and keeps telling me to go back and click gift voucher section, when you try to find a phone no to call - its not available, talk about not wanting to be contacted, bloody Joke.. I will tell all my friends and family not to waste their time and go to Hoyts for their gift vouchers instead!!!
Not very happy at all....

Website wont accept multiple giftcards for transactions

published

Their awful website wont except multiple of their gift cards while paying for movies and snacks, i keep getting the things as presents in various denominations but can only use one card at a time. Tried to book a movie for 2 and snacks with two 30 dollar cards, wasn't able to do the movies and the snacks because it was over 30$. The snacks are cheaper on the website when you buy them with tickets so i screen capped it on my phone and tried to get the deal at the theaters but they wouldn't honor it. Their whole website in general is badly made, its an awful process to select a film, if you're going to use archaic drop down menus at least let me chose a date, and then the time, so awfully cluttered.

Trying to book Gold Class tickets online, could not get on to appropriate page

Website never works and no contact number

published

Cannot use gift cards online or vouchers. Worst company to deal with, as they have no proper customer service but expect the same expiry.

No extension on gift cards disgusting.

published

There needs to be something done about this. The Cinema has received the money for the cards. The value of the dollar may decrease but in the meantime the cinema has received interest on your money.
If you had paid for anything elsewhere and didnt receive it there would be a Court Case. Why are the cinemas getting away with this??? Sometimes there are extenuating circumstances as to why the card hasnt been used. This is THEFT!!!

Gift cards

This should not be allowed, they make a fortune out of this scam,there should be NO time limit imposed on gift card sales,rang them to extend my card date which was for $50 they said NO, thanks for nothing what would it have cost them to provide access to the gift card, sitting in a gold class cinema early week when no one is there,what a joke,will never go to these cinemas again total scam, should be ashamed of themselves

Terrible Service

Horrible gift cards

published

The gift card system is horrible ! I’ve tried to book gold glass tickets and cannot with the two gift cards at the same time ! No phone number to call, so went into a village cinemas however they could also not help because they couldn’t book for another location because the systems were not linked ! After driving for 40 mins to the location to pay it was booked out!!!!!! Not happy as I wanted to use them for gold glass and and for a birthday session! It’s pointless when I can’t even call someone to help or the store to pay over the phone.

Useless

published

Village are one of the only companies who refuse to extend the life of gift cards. Disgraceful customer service. Takes 2 days to hear back from them. Do not buy! Ever

Total rip off. Wish I had read other reviews on this site first

published

Horrible

published

For a company this big, you would think they would have their gift card system sorted out. Bought two gift vouchers. One of them works, one of them doesn't. No reason... just doesn't work. Waste of time and money.

Rip off ronnies

published

How can they put short expiry dates on gift cards. Cash never expires. They have taken the cash and all i now have is 2 worthless pieces of paper. Someone somewhere should investigate this for the fraud that it is.

A complete scam!

published

We tried to use our prepaid vouchers to book online. They simply don't work. Nowhere to call. Just email or visit "in cinema". It's surprising that the ACCC or similar hasn't done anything about this. I'll be making contact with them.

i am really disappointed

published

I am so disappointed. I am trying to book into Gold class for this Saturday. My vouchers expire in 10 days! website wont accept my numbers. Have tried calling but only get recording. Very, very disappointing and frustrating. No way to contact and no way to book. Is this really how it works? I have other tickets that expire December and i just received more... Am I going to lose those too??? I How can this happen? I had no way to contact so thought I would try here, after reading previous reviews,I am now losing hope! I hope I hear back from you Village when you read this. I hope I am wrong in saying that I feel completely ripped off. hoping.....waiting.....

No star if possible

published

Goldclass hasn’t got a call centre anymore. All the older friends and relatives have become frustrated as you can only book online - no help over the phone.

So the voucher holders have been serval times to the cinema only to find out the session is already booked. Petrol, time, parking fees for NOTHING. Vouchers now about to expire.

Village you are robbers, theives and time for the ACCC to intervene!

Customer service what customer service

published

OMG they have no one you can call no one to talk to except via email. Once you speak to them via so called customer service on email all they do is NOT help you. What a joke I wish someone from the ACCC or somewhere could actually look into this. [name removed] is the customer service person I spoke to via email and guess what when I actually needed customer service which is stipulated in her signature on her email at the jam factory in melbourne guess what I got? I can't help you go to the website or drive 2 hrs to the cinema OMG is that really what this world has gotten to. DO NOT GO TO VILLAGE THEY ARE HOPELESS!!!!!!!

My prompt enquiry from Village is they have extended my expiry date from 31May20 to 31Oct20.

My tickets expired 30th March not May. Does that mean you only get 5 months extension on the date? What if things don't go back to normal until the end of the year?

Will all tickets be extended due to corona virus?

I have the same question. My Gold Class vouchers also expire on 31.3.20
I would like an immediate answer from Village that there is at least a 6-12 month extension.

I just went to village cinemas.com.au/contact-us
Completed my details and let Village know I expect them to extend the expiry date by 6-12 months. Due to Covid-19, Village closed on 23.3.20 (prior to our expiry date) so I think they will have to offer us an extension.
