On Thursday, Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant announced the immediate closure of their 16 remaining locations.
CBS News put out a story detailing what customers should do if they have gift cards for the former franchise. According to their coverage, there is no guarantee of getting your money back, but you can try:
You might have some luck contacting the company directly to request a refund, or calling around to competitors to see if they’ll honor the gift card, according to the Consumer Federation of America.
You can also contact your state’s consumer protection officials and submit a complaint. It can help track the issue, but it’s unlikely they’ll be able to intervene, particularly if the business filed for bankruptcy.
“Bottom line, if you ever receive a gift card, it’s best to use it as quickly as possible,” CBS wrote.
