Im stuck with 16 grand of credit for Ernest Jones, not a single thing I want from them.
The jewellery is all overpriced junk and they only do Omega that's worth buying.
My BIL has received a Ernest Jones voucher and has offered it to me if I am interested as there is nothing he wants from the store. The voucher is for the value of £5000 and he will let me have it for £4000.
I have looked on the EJ website and there is nothing I fancy purchasing either so was thinking if I bought it I could offer it on SC for what I paid as it may help someone save some money.
I have looked at SC rules and cannot work out if this is allowed or not.
Can anyone advise?

I was considering a Tudor BB58 and have located a few but I’m then left with a load of credit I don’t need.

I had a break in last month, they stole my watch and my wife's jewellery box.
I thought you could insist on a cheque from an insurance claim rather than being forced to take vouchers in lieu?
If the insurer is replacing like for like and EJ don’t do the watch you had stolen why on earth would you accept it?
Longine,tag,Chanel,omega,breitling,I’m sure there’s something worth having

They can and do try that but if you refer it to the Ombudsmans they can't insist on vouchers and have to make a payment to the same amount as the voucher offer in cash. They get a massive discount on Signet cards, at a guess circa 30% so of course they aren't keen to offer cash but they have to if you dig your heels in.

It’s getting harder and harder to get the cash, I accept LMG vouchers and speak to
many many people that try and give up
You have to be prepared to spend a lot of time and effort (sometimes months), although I must admit just recently I know of a couple of people that got decent cash settlements but that is definitely not the norm

If you want the cash offer its 35% less.

Thats not correct. They can insist on the signet card if all items can be replaced in a signet partner.
If say you lost a Patek then you could reject as no signet partner would do one and they would have to pay you out full cash price.
But in my case, jewellery ( bracelets, necklaces, Krugerrands, Speedmaster etc went ) and they half gave me a signet card. )
But Ernest Jones stuff is overpriced shite, so I feel like I'm being taken for a ride.

No you can't take it to them, you can only take it to them for items that Ernest Jones wouldn't have if they are trying to Palm you off on a signet
