I recently purchased a comforter set on Groupon. The set I received was not only the wrong one, it was not even available anywhere on the Groupon website. It took two weeks, 7 phone calls and 5 emails to get any response. Ultimately Groupon would not send me the comforter I ordered. They want me to send the wrong one back for a refund. I was told that the reason I received the wrong product was because I submitted my order using a mobile device. Does that make any sense?
I tried to purchase a groupon for massage as a gift. The first time, the processing screen stayed on my computer for TWO HOURS. After 2 hours, I tried to refresh, still processing. Never received a confirmation email so I later retried the purchase, got the confirmation email right away. Of course, a few days later I notice 2 charges on my account. I emailed explaining their website FROZE and I never got an email for the first one, so I went ahead to purchase again, and that I only ordered ONE. Their email: "We are sorry you regret your purchase, but we cannot refund your purchase". I even called to explain and they pretty much said "yea sorry you ordered it".
If this happens to you, call your credit card company to refund it.
Horrible company!
Also, the small businesses that use Groupon to promote their business? You know they profit absolutely nothing!? Groupon takes the majority.
Do not purchase home services from them. I purchased home service's from groupon, set up anow appointment with the contractor. On the day for them to do the work, the never called or showed up. They also didn't answer there phone. When I reached out to groupon customers services. They said it was nothing they can do about it.No compensation, no refund and no exchange. Please save your money. I'm so disappointed.
Groupon is taking advantage of innocent victims by taking payments for cruises that are fully booked. They are using a double-booking process. I booked and paid on their website for a cruise then I was directed to another website to book again. The second website belonged to the cruise company who indicated the cruise was fully booked. And yet Groupon was taking payments and they've refused to refund. They've said the tickets are non refundable and apologised. This is theft.
Ordered a dress for 12.00$ it came so I ordered tank tops for 34.99$ Never received them they said they delivered them to me to contact UPS... So I will never shop there agin... No tank tops and no money. I'm deleting the app on my phone
I bought an item on Groupon on Dec. 2nd, checked status for delivery and saw that it still had not shipped. So I sent email inquiring about when item might ship. Today I get an email from them telling me they cancelled my order... I didn't ask them to cancel my order. I called CS@ Groupon and was told they did me a favor my cancelling my order. If I still want the item I can re-purchase... guess what item in color I wanted is no longer available... seriously. Customer Service and including a supervisor provided no assistance in resolving the matter and just kept telling me they were sorry. UNACCEPTABLE!
Tried for almost 3 weeks to resolve my issue using email and Groupon's posted customer service number - and nothing. Then tried another customer service number: *******482
Service Rep was awesome and fixed everything right away.
I have had good experiences with Groupon until now. I was looking at tickets for an event (just looking). I was not ready to buy yet. I hit one button, and $150 later, I tried to stop the order, and was told that the sale was final, and I could "give it away" to someone if I couldn't use it. REALLY? I asked the girl if she had $150 to just throw away. Yes, we want to go to the event, but I was not ready to buy it yet, and I didn't want it to go on that credit card. Really let down, and don't know if I will use them again. Too bad, because like I said, I have had good experiences in the past. Another reason I hate to buy things online. :(
Ordered an item (Lunch Box).
Was eagerly waiting to receive it.
It never arrived.
Called the customer care.
They said the ordered item was unavailable.
Dirty service.
"You dont update your customer about item availability"
Irresponsible!
If you plan to buy things on Groupon. Be cautious of the price drop! They will not give you the difference of the sale even if has not been shipped yet. They only give you 3 days... Keep an eye on your account.
Description does NOT match the actual deal. I purchased an office evaluation for 10.00 at Bee Healthy Weight loss clinic. It said nothing about this being for shots only. Went to my appointment and when it came time to checkout i was told the groupon did NOT cover office visit at ALL and they didnt know why groupon hasnt corrected it "yet". I have no interest in the shots so i pretty much paid 10.00 to go to an office visit and pay 80.00 dollars
This was my first and last time buying through Groupon. I ordered a sweater and got the wrong item, color, and size. I am not elegiable to receive my money back for some odd reason. I am 100% dissatisfied and I DO NOT recommend doing business with them.
I have a groupon about to expire in 11 days for a massage and not appointment is available until the middle of January, Cannot get to chat. Will not hold for 60 minutes to tell them I have a problem. That is a problem itself!
I bought a duct cleaning service for a good price... but when I called to schedule, I was told they were booking 3 months out... I booked and waited for three months and then they never showed! Groupon sucks! They do not check out the businesses they advertise... BEWARE GROUPON!
I really wanted this top and Groupon sent me a totally different shirt. Did a live chat with them online and all they did was email me a return address label for the wrong top. I asked if they would be sending the shirt I ordered and they told me I'd have to order it again if I wanted it. Very poor customer service. They should have sent me the correct shirt as soon as I told them about it. Very rude.
I bought a 90 minute massage and facial from Groupon for $132 in August, 2023. The "business" is Kebeauty and they have 17 5 star reviews on Groupon. After calling the massage parlor several times and leaving several voicemails, none of my calls were returned. I reached out to Groupon to request a refund, because the Groupon is due to expire shortly. Groupon let me know that they were able to reach the business and the business has been too busy to schedule me. I am still unable to reach the massage parlor to schedule and can't review the Kebeauty Massage parlor until the Groupon is used. I wasted $132 on this scam and am hoping no one else falls into a similar trap. Buyer beware!
I purchased a product from groupon and waited 10 days to receive it only to find out that the package was emptied then I ordered a second time a waited another 10 days and the same thing happened nothing was delivered they don't want to give me my money back so I'm forced to buy from them worst company to buy from.
I had purchased several groupons without any problem besides month long shipping times. Since I trusted the site, I decided to buy a more expensive groupon, (Lasik surgery) I've always wanted lasik, and since I could get it for a few hundred $$ off, I figured now would be a good time. Unfortunately my card was declined, even though I had plenty of money in my account. I called my bank and to check for issues, and then called groupon after updating my payment information.
Unfortunately Groupon said there is absolutely nothing they could do to help. Apparently the groupon had expired, even though I had it under "my groupons". Whenever I clicked to update the payment, I would go to the home page. I wasn't offered any help at all. I will never purchase from groupon again.
I feel like I've been dooped. Spent over $2,000.00 for a FAKE Saint Laurent handbag. Anyone with any sense can take one look at the bag and be rest assured it's a fake. If I would've known, I wouldn't have spent my money here. Also, the bag I received looked nothing, I mean nothing like the picture of the bag I thought I was purchasing. I'm sick to my stomach. And the item is of course non returnable. I can not believe I spent my hard earned money on a fake that expensive... just beside myself.
I was trying to buy a canvas for a pic and it ended up stating apparently in fine print no refunds and it was $200 for the canvas the the amount stated, was apparently money off the canvas and very falsely advertised... manager said no refunds and didn't care about how it was worded at all and would not refund even though it was same day
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.
