 Gday...

I fixed your like Jade46.

However, read the link and you will see that Woolworths sold the 'enterprise' to Anchorage Capital Partners in 2012 for $115Million - Anchorage Capital Partners listed it on the ASX at $520million. http://www.anchoragecapital.com.au/

It is now worth less than $60million - and carrying too much inventory, very little sales activity and too much debt.

Cheers - John

It's only if you bought the gift card from Coles that they will help you out, bought from anywhere else and bad luck you done your dough at the moment.
