Please refer to Co-op Issued T&Cs if your card is issued by the Co-operative Bank.
National Book Token Gift Cards are available in the UK in £s and in Ireland in €s. The Card can only be used to purchase books. It is not a credit card or a charge card, nor is it a debit card linked to a current account. It is a prepaid card which means that money must be loaded onto the Card at the time of purchase; cardholders can then use the Card to pay for full or part payments for books at participating retailers.
Refunds or change will not be given. If the value of the purchase is less than the value of the card, the balance will remain on the card for future purchases.
“You” (or “you”) and “Your” (or “your”) means the person who purchased the Card or the person in possession of the Card from time to time who has been gifted the Card by the purchaser.
4.1 The Card may only be used in Participating Retailers. The list of Participating Retailers is available online at www.nationalbooktokens.co.uk; the list of Participating Retailers may change from time to time.
4.2 We will debit the amount of all Card Purchases to the Card. You can not use the Card to spend more than the Card balance at any time. If you attempt to spend more than the Card balance your transaction will be declined.
4.3 You cannot stop a Card Purchase after it has been authorised.
4.4 We will not issue Card statements. You can obtain your Card balance at www.nationalbooktokens.co.uk or at Participating Retailers. You are responsible for monitoring your Card balance and for ensuring that there are sufficient funds on the Card at all times to pay for Card Purchases.
4.5 If the amount of a purchase which you wish to make using your Card is greater than the available balance, you can pay the difference in cash or by another payment method.
We reserve the right at all times to introduce new Terms and Conditions and to vary or amend the existing Terms and Conditions by giving you two months notice thereof by whatever means we, in our discretion deem appropriate.
You should treat the Card as if it were cash. If the Card is lost, stolen, or if the Card number becomes known to any unauthorised person you should immediately notify National Book Tokens Customer Services on +44 (0) 20 7421 4653. If we can reasonably establish your rightful ownership of the Card we may be able to block the card and replace it. We will only be able to replace the value on the card at the time we establish rightful ownership and can block the card. We will charge an administration fee for this service of £3.50, this will be deducted from the card balance.
