They provide genuine deals, I enjoyed shopping and will use this site again.!
It a nightmare dealing with these people. 13 emails and 5 phone calls to their call centre in the Phillipines. They have 2 Australian phone numbers - one is disconnected and the other rings out! Their people are poorly trained and do nothing for you other than make stupid ill-informed comments - they asked for a screen shot of my payment which I sent. They wrote back the next day and said it showed Groupon crediting my account and not debiting it! Seriously!
I paid for the goods on the 7th January and it is now the 6th February and still no sight of them.
I will NEVER deal with them again. They should be reported to the ACCC for fraudulent and misleading conduct.
Groupon product is garbage. Worse then seconds dont buy it. Once you receive it they make it impossible to return and tell you that you should have read the fine print. I received faulty electronics i am now stuck with and garbage swarofski earrings and they wont even reply to my emails. Other than services or gift certificates its a total gamble dont throw your money away..
Don't use this website to buy anything. You will never get any form of customer service or get your package on time.
I forget to check this as often as I should, but it is INCREDIBLE how many deals you can find for something you planned on doing anyway.
Tip: opt in for the reminders. You can delete the text message easily enough, but I have scored some incredible deals as a result of a notification!
"Top or Flop" for me. Just make sure you are careful about the details.
Not for people who don't live in the metro area, participating businesses are too far out
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!
Groupon has wonderful discounted merchandise, hotels, and entertainment options. We will continue to use Groupon. Their staff is always friendly and helpful.
Customer service is brain dead. I purchased 2 groupons and redeemed the. The items arrived damaged and that sites customer service blew me off. Now groupon customer service can grasp the info I have given them numerous times. I'm done!
If you are thinking about buying a so called Groupon deal don't! Instead contact the business directly and they will more than likely sell you the deal directly. You will also get better service this way... no lame middle man. Just some free advice...
I've bought many deals and always found them excellent, I especially like the products, always getting bits for the house like bedding, and check the garden section for great offers on hosepipes to plants
I bought a Prada bag from ideel.com. The item was exactly pictured on the Prada.com website for hundreds more. I was excited to get this great deal. Unfortunately I received the wrong item (something that looked as though it cost a few dollars). Customer service was actually pretty good, and they shipped me my item 2 day shipping without any further expense to me. They responded back timely when I had questions or concerns. When my Prada bag arrived, it was exactly as pictured, in excellent condition. Although I was very worried, everything turned out ok.

Love the savings - especially on local restaurants, car washes, coffee, etc.
I ordered some bedroom furniture on the 23rd jan, and a sofa on the 28th jan. After ordering I had a look on the reviews of groupon and could see a lot of them was bad, so I started to worry That I wouldn't get any on time/or get it at all.
But yesterday I go a text for the company delivering my bedroom furniture that it would be coming today between 8am-6pm.
The furniture arrived before 10am which I was happy about as I'm not waiting in all day for. The furniture has came in the time limit they gave me and I am very happy, don't know what I was worrying about.
The sofa should be at mine on 6th feb.
Love their specials. I have only bought discount tickets no merchandise.
Groupon is a hit or miss for me. It almost can be a bait and switch. You many times have to be careful about the interpretation of what the offer is
What an absolute nightmare of a company. We ordered a king size bed bundle with mattress and bedding. Firstly the mattress didnt turn up to then find a piece missing. The support central rail was missing. Had to then ring groupon and all they could say was 14 days and you will then get a refund. Would never deal with this company again.
Answer: Yes, Groupon is legit. You need to read the fine print before ordering live event tickets- -they will not refund your money even if it's there fault. I only buy tickets for activities that don't expire or you can use the purchase price towards a non-Groupon service the vendor offers. Hope this helps.
Answer: Yes, report it but using social media is a very effective way to get a companies attention. Spread the word, Groupon does not honor returns!
Answer: I usually call the merchants I am interested in before buying the coupons, and ask them if the groupon coupons work, and how much more I have to pay. You could do the same, contact the merchants you are interested in and ask them how groupon works for them?
Answer: Groupon usually sends a tracking # via email If not do as the other people suggested, check My Groupons
Answer: I wish I could say why, but a solution might be to contact Call Curtis, or your local News station that helps with consumer issues. They always seem to get fast resolutions, because companies hate BAD TV PUBLICITY.
Answer: I personally do not trust groupon. The question previous to yours printed on this site should answer your question as to its reliaiblity
Answer: The one I took by Holly and Hugo at least were I would research the company before buying. Also about twice a year they put all their courses for $5! I got mine completed it and it helped boost my resume and I was able to get a vet assistant job pretty quickly compared to before where I only got a call back from about one place which didn't lead anywhere. :) hope I could help!
Answer: Well, it's not Ideeli anymore... it's been Ideel for about a year now I think. Yes, there is a customer support phone number. I've had nothing but good experiences from Ideel in all regards - product satisfaction, price, shipping, etc. - but I've never had to contact customer service so I don't know what you'll get, but they're phone number is (888) 835-1719.
Answer: They are the absolute worst about answering customer service complaints. They will lie, they literally told me customer service reps were out sick, thus no answer to my emails for about 2 weeks. But, don't loose hope, the DAY I posted a review on this site, they answered AND gave me a 25.00 credit for my trouble. So write a review on Site Jabber with all the details and a bet a manager will answer promptly. As this is their way, I NEVER ordered from the site again after at least 3 years of orders. Good Luck and don't leave a sordid detail out of your complaint.
