I agree -- double check if you were supposed to get a giftcard or a prepaid card.
My husband bought some items from Comp USA on black friday and we got our prepaid card last week ($70). It is a prepaid debit card for the amount. Although it says CompUSA on it, it is a VISA debit card. It can be used anywhere. However, My husband said he will use it this week sometime just in case there is a problem with it since CompUSA is going out of business in our area.
