Bought an experience from Groupon. The company for it cancelled my reservation and Groupon refused too return my money because it was after 3 days. I talked with their customer service multiple times and had to restart my conversation everytime,a company like Groupon should have a system in place to review old customer service tickets. I got the run around repeatedly and have yet to get my money back.

Groupon is clearly a criminal enterprise that prays on local companies with the scam of legal discounts. I spoke to a number of merchants that are sorry they got involved in this scam. Groupon tells merchants to unload unwanted merchandise thru this way. Please don't be the next victim. If it sounds too good it is a crime

My Wife bought Gillet Compatible Mach 3 Blades for me from this site. The Quality of blades was so bad that it did not do even a single shave properly. Groupon sells really poor quality goods on the name of discount. When I tried to contact their customer service, its pathetic too. Their Customer Service guys has only one objective, how to stall you and refrain you from returning the stuff. I al still struck with those useless blades. Stay away from this site. Its not worth you time and money.

I am looking for my orders. This is crazy! I have been a loyal customer for years, and this is the service that you give in return. Even being owned by Groupon doesn't help. They state that the account was transferred. Really? I sent an e-mail(as asked) and nothing. This should be reported to the BBB. How can you claim to be a reputable company? I need a status on my orders. You are not the only ones with attorneys.

Hey there... I am editing my review. Try Bluefly.com for great quality name branded merchandise. Variety of sizes as well.

I bought a restaurant discount deal from Groupon. However, the restaurant refused to honor the discount. When I contacted Groupon customer support (via online chat), they refused to refund my money. They offered to escalate the issue, and promised that someone will get back to me in 36 hours. I waited for a week but never heard back from them, so I called them again (had to search for their phone number on Google). Their customer service rep in Philippines could barely speak English, and was reading from a script. He was of no help, and offered to escalate the issue. Again, I never heard back from anyone.

Groupon has taken my money, and has no intention to deliver the promised goods. Its nothing but a bait-and-switch scam.

I placed an order for a comforter. It did not appear to be of the quality depicted in the picture. I attempted 6 times to contact customer service and have never had one response. I will never use the site again!

Hi Don,

Thanks for writing your review and giving us your feedback here on SiteJabber. I'm really sorry to hear you don't like the comforter set you ordered and will be happy to look into assisting with a return. You can contact Customer Service via Live Chat for immediate assistance with an issue like this. They can be reached using this link: https://support.ideel.com/app/chat/chat_launch. From time to time there can be a delay in responding to emails but Live Chat agents should be able to help meet your needs.

I'd like to help you resolve this issue. Please provide me with the order number and name of the item you wish to return as well as the reason why you feel it's not as good quality. I'd like to share this with the merchandising team since member feedback is crucial to helping decide what items to sell. If you can also provide me with the email address used to contact us and let me know if you emailed or chatted, I'd like to find out why you were not responded to. I look forward to helping resolve this issue for you.

Best,
Jason Faria
Director, Ideel Customer Service

I cannot believe Groupon would acquire Ideeli to trash it, ruin it completely. I used to buy so much stuff from them, great customer service, fantastic choices, the daily emails were something I looked forward to. Now, it is all gone.

After this pandemic Groupon has gone beyond downhill! Tons of issues with the app
Freezing? Or not available to open or check out?! I bought 2 vouchers and never was notified that they had canceled on me. They refund it back credit And I can't even use it because the website keeps freezing I've been on here for the last for two! There's no customer service phone number and live agent isn't even available via text! Coupon needs to fix this and get back on board this is horrible!

Do NOT buy unless you are ready to wait for more than 3 weeks to be delivered! It's been 15 days and the products still hasn't shipped - it is a simple protein powder! In the fine print on the webpage it says delivered in 12 days, but when you get the confirmation email, it says 3 WEEKS! No option to cancel! Worst online shopping experience ever! Will never use this store again!
Wrote the same review on their website and it got rejected - talk about censorship and manipulation of the reviews!

I never had issues until I bought tickets and they closed early for weather. I email support for a rebate. They reply with info and never credited me. On my time I had issues. All other experience good. Always verify what the coupon entails sometimes merchant and coupon discrepancy.
