Tock is holding my money hostage Tock doesn’t bother to inform buyers that their gift cards can’t be used to, you know, actually purchase food like you’d think they could. My employer purchased a $200 Tock gift card on my behalf as a gift, and I decided to use the balance to take my parents, husband, and mother in law to a restaurant for lunch… intending to use my gift card to cover the bill. Lo and behold, I found out AFTER we’d ordered that exactly $0 of my Tock gift card balance could be applied to my current balance. I was mortified. My family had driven more than an hour from their respective locations to meet me and my husband at the restaurant, only for my method of payment to not work as expected. This was a $120 lunch between the four of us, so not exactly small fries, but I had expected my $200 gift card balance to be more than enough to cover the bill. Tock’s customer service was worse than useless in resolving the issue — the entire burden fell on the staff of the restaurant to deduct our $120 bill from my gift card balance. I literally have no idea how they did it, but I was so grateful that they stepped up to fix Tock’s mistake. Now Tock customer service is giving me the runaround about refunding the remaining $80 on my gift card balance. I DO NOT WANT TO WASTE MY TIME ON TOCK AFTER MY AWFUL EXPERIENCE WITH THE PLATFORM. I literally just want a refund so I can move on with my life, but Tock insists that I can use the gift card balance “to reserve experiences” at restaurants, when that’s the last thing I want to use my gift balance for. Tock marketed these gift cards in a misleading manner. I was fully under the impression that I would be able to use my balance to pay the tab of any restaurant under the Tock banner, but Tock is a woefully tech-deficient company, so they can’t even manage that. Now they are holding my money hostage — USE TOCK OR EXPLORETOCK AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Elaborate Scam We tried three times to use tock. Each time they charged us money in advance only for the restaurants to have never heard of tock before, and leading to a huge billing issue each time. Until now, we haven't been able to use our money on tock, and there's no way to remove it. And all support does is give default answers. Fairly convinced their business model is to make the product almost impossible to use so that they people just never use the money they actually have. If you like someone, NEVER gift them a tock gift card - it's the worst thing you can do to someone

I find Resy and OpenTable are far… I find Resy and OpenTable are far better user experiences for diners. Tock charges asinine fees to diners and makes splitting a bill need a spreadsheet. I'd rate Tock 0/5 stars.

If I could give 0 stars I would If I could give 0 stars I would. Once you are on a restaurant's website and hit "Reservations" then Tock completely throws you out of everything you've put in. Tock assigns you a random city so you have to go searching for where you actually wanted to go, then input everything all over again. Then you wait. Worst interface. Who designed this???

Tock is CRAP and for the BOTS Tock is CRAP- They have bots that take up all the reservations within seconds. I’ve had 10 people at the same time through the app or the website try to book and it’s impossible because either they don’t have anything in place that protects the system against bots that book out slots or they resell reservations to other sites that charge fees for a booking service or concierge service. I really hope restaurant owners of the highly sought out places like the Michelin restaurants understand this game because there are so many people that lose out on experiencing your restaurants due to an unfair rigged system that is the EXCLUSIVE way to get a table at your restaurant. Such a shame!
