Gifting woes
August 07, 2008
Brides and grooms, who were customers of Wrapit wedding list service, protest at the Canary Wharf branch of HSBC on August 6 in London, England. The online gift company Wrapit went into administration on August 4 and has left thousands of couples without having received their wedding gifts.
The protestors handed a petition to HSBC, the company's bank, after Wrapit Managing Director Peter Gelardi told customers it would cost 1 mn pounds less for the bank to fund Wrapit to deliver all outstanding gifts, than just refunding gifts purchased with a credit or Visa debit card.
