Music Retailer to Help People Redeem HMV Vouchers

NEWCASTLE-UNDER-LYME, England, January 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

One of HMV's former suppliers has stepped in to help customers of the stricken music chain redeem vouchers and gift cards.

TheGoldDisc.com supplied music memorabilia to HMV for three years, and estimate the company's slump into administration will cost them in the region of 15000 a year. 

But rather than worrying about the consequences for the Staffordshire firm's future, their MD Dave Breese took the positive step of helping HMV customers with unusable vouchers and gift cards.

He said: "We will take a hit from the demise of HMV but so will many others - lots of people would have received HMV vouchers and gift cards as Christmas presents, and they are unlikely to be refunded by the administrators.

"Instead of letting that money go to waste they can use them to get up to 50% knocked off any order placed through our music gifts website."

Vouchers and gift cards can be used in part-payment for any orders. The offer ends at midnight on 31^st January.

TheGoldDisc.com was established in 2002 and supplies a range of gifts including personalised framed gold discs to commemorate a couple's wedding dance, a leaving or retirement gift, or the Number One on the day you were born.

Last year in their 10^th year of trading the firm launched a music gifts store, which provides licensed memorabilia for artists including The Beatles, Pink Floyd and the Sex Pistols.
