Hi all
I bought a young child a gift card in-store from Game for some Fortnite Vbucks. He plays on the Nintendo switch, and apparently the child can't get it to redeem. Apparently you can't do it on the console, but the child tells me they tried to do it online on the website and still the same.
We still have the receipt from Game. Is there a possibility that the card has indeed not been activated? Perhaps the staff member at game made a mistake, and didn't activate it? Is there a way of checking?
I'm not sure if the kid is trying to pull one and get another Vbucks card off me. Would appreciate any advice.

sorted byI have redeemed v-bucks via a gift card for the Switch but unfortunately it was quite some time ago so can’t remember the exact process but we didn’t have any issues when we done it
My son played it on pc but his friends on consoles had all kinds of trouble when moving from switch to playstation or Xbox and losing their stuff as bought it on Nintendo account and not epic account.
Wasn't sure if they managed to fix it by linking
Also cards are scratch cards I think? So cannot be used or activated in the shop as need to be scratched off. I might be wrong there but how it has been for gift cards my son has received before. (edited)
