I haven’t tried it yet but I think I should be able to go into a shop and ask yo pay the exact balance remaining on the gift card. My theory is if you go over the available balance the transaction will fail, going less than the available balance the transaction goes through. So I’ll try asking to pay the exact available balance then top up with credit or cash. Unfortunately the teller I used could not see my available balance so she just tried a lower amount, leaving me with a remaining balance. What do you reckon?
