How do I check my Apple store gift card bal

Apple has different kinds of gift cards. "To find out how to redeem your gift card and what you can buy with it, check which type of gift card you have" --> https://support.apple.com/HT204199

The balance on an iTunes or App Store gift card itself is either what it says on the face of the card, or nothing because it has already been redeemed. The only way to check is to try redeeming the card which of course will transfer the entire value, if any, to your account.

Any Issues Using It?:

The gift card amount should be what it says on the card itself. If this is not working out, proceed from here with the following:

If so, what to do:

I. You Need to Contact the Seller:

Whomever the seller is, they need to log themselves out of this, if not your account.

II. Where was this Purchased?

A. Online?:

If this was purchased online (i.e. eBay) then contact the site, seeing if the seller can be held accountable and if you can get your money back.

B. In-Person?:

If this as purchased in person, then there may be nothing you can do but contact them, asking for your money back.

Or...

C. A Retailer?:

If purchased at a retailer, take it back, asking what your options are for return. Gift Card return policies vary by rules of law. So, take to the Manager, asking if you can get a new card.

III. Avoiding Scams:

In all recommend getting it at a retailer - that way you can easily avoid scams. Getting it online might result in scams (and plenty are reported). So, go to a retailer, and then add it to your Apple Account right then-and-there after the transaction goes through at the cash register. It'd be more safe, from what read on these forums.
