as to solution for this, I'd go with what Credipig said. You may have to call them to ask for a refund but be prepared to go back and forth with them (waste a lot of time) because it won't take just one call to get your refund. Check feedback/reviews about GD to know other people's experiences in dealing with them. Hopefully, you have $5K as float to pay your CC bills so you don't have to pay fees/interests on them. Good luck!
NEPony above is good way out.

Alternately you can offer your friends and relatives the $500 value card at a discount. Calculate at rounded off 2 cents a mile for what you earned and discount accordingly. also prepay / overpay large bills AFTER making sure they refund the overages !
