scam/ personal data at risk
I received a €20 One4all gift card for my birthday, but I’ve had a lot of trouble trying to use it. It took me quite a while to understand how it all works, and when I downloaded the app to add the card (since using it online with the code didn’t work), I was surprised to find there’s a €50 minimum spend. Even then, I haven’t been able to make a successful purchase with it.
Eventually, I considered just letting go of the €20, but when I tried to delete my account, I found there was no way to do so through the website or the app. I contacted support through the form and later via email, but haven’t received any reply.
I’ve decided to keep pursuing the deletion of my personal data. At this point, it’s no longer about the €20 gift card—it's about making sure that my personal information, such as my date of birth, isn’t reused or sold. I’ve sent another email to the company requesting the deletion of my account and all associated data.
If I don’t receive a response or see action taken, I will escalate the matter by contacting the Consumer Protection Agency in the Netherlands. It’s a matter of principle now. While the poor experience with the gift card and the 200+ negative reviews on Trustpilot are concerning, the potential mishandling of consumers' personal data is a much more serious issue.
