Horrible Services!
April 21, 2017

Groupon provides poor services especially when it comes to giving refunds. I purchased a groupon worth $180 and was unable to print the voucher or contact the business owner. Groupon takes no responsibility on what they post on their website and end up eating up our money. This is the second time I have had issues with groupon. I will not be using their services again!

Groupon is a really good site for deals, no doubt you can grab deal on your area and worldwide with cheap price. Help full for those who mostly travels or on the go you have deal on hands at any place.

Recently I came up with an idea to have some cosmetic procedures which is not that cheap. Thanks to the certificate I found at groupon i managed to save 50% of the total price. Very cool thing! I'm so much satisfied!

I was charged twice for tickets I purchased. I even showed them proof on my credit card statement. Said sorry can't help you. At least give me four tickets since I payed for them. Beware of them. They'll give you the runaround till they figure you'll wear down.

I had been a Groupon member since Jan 2010 and had two separate accounts with them. On May of 2013 I decided to buy a Groupon Goods offer and I received an error that my order could not go through even though I tried ordering the item twice. I then called their customer support (I also emailed them) and was told that my physical home address could not be verified. I tried explaining that I had bought Groupon Goods before and this had never happened. I even asked to talk to a supervisor or manager. I was basically told the same thing from the supervisor/manager and also from a reply to the email I sent them. Not sure what kind of software they are using to verify an address but it does not work as it should. I finally just asked them to remove both of my accounts and they gladly did that without even trying to fix the problem. No more Groupon for me - thank you!

I ordered 3 shirts a pair of jeans and my wedding gown big mistake of my life. The quality of all the items was so poor that I could have gone to Walmart and found better. The shirts were paper thin and wedding gown was the same and it was supposed to be a 300 dollars gown. Should have known better when cost of gown was only $79 dollars. Jeans were wrong size. This company is the worst online shopping experience I have ever had. They won't refund my money. They want to give me store credit now why would I want store credit when their clothes are such poor quality and I will NEVER shop with them again. Their shipping is a scam they charge you UPS rates but it gets delivered by USPS on top of that it takes them months to get your order. Stay away from this company very far away!

Hi Sheila,

I'm so sorry to hear you're frustrated, and would very much like to look into your order(s) and investigate what's occurring. While we do stand behind the quality of all of our featured brands, our number one goal is for you to always be happy with your purchases. I'm very willing to work with you if you are not. If you'd be so kind as to private message me your user id and order number, I can begin the process of assisting you.

For clarification with regard to our shipping, please note that we charge one flat shipping rate for all purchases made on the same day. For most packages, we use a combination of UPS and USPS services. Since the final delivery is handled by your local postal service, your order can be delivered 6 days a week, including Saturdays.

Lastly, for your convenience, we always list out the estimated shipping window on the sale page and on your order confirmation so you'll know exactly when to expect it.

I hope that helps to clear up any confusion, and I look forward to hearing from you so I can further assist.

Best,

Jason Faria
Sr. Manager Customer Service

AWFUL!
June 25, 2012

AWFUL! Out of 5 things I have ordered off the groupon goods site I only received 1! That took over 2 months to receive. I still haven't received full refunds for products I have purchased over 3 months ago. It is ridiculous. I do not recommend this to anyone who plans on receiving anything in a timely matter or at all! I will never have anything to do with this $#*! site again.

Buyer, beware!
July 19, 2015

They used to be great. Really, they were. But, as they started to offer free shipping and got too big for their britches, the prices went up right in front of my face. I even have snapshots. Additionally, return policies changed from returnable prior to placing item in your cart to non-returnable at check-out. I called them out on it and they have ignored me. I have the snapshots to prove it and sent them to customer service. Really watch what you are doing if you plan on buying from there. I don't recommend. I was a loyal customer for a long time. Their loss. And the one star is for what they used to be like. They don't even deserve that anymore.

Scam
April 9, 2020

I ordered Latisse and the code from Groupon was fake! I literally had to order the product from Skinsolutions MD, and it took a while to get my refund from Groupon! The customer service is so poor, game playing and have such disgusting language comprehension issues! My best advice is to go to the companies directly or Amazon! As for getting a refund, just stay on them strong and get the better business bureau or just go on social media and expose their horrendous business practices! Good luck!

PS: after my nightmare experiences I got my money back from Groupon

Expiration date
July 5, 2018

I bought form a restaurant more than one groupon and the restaurant redeemed the later day instead of the early one. I called and spoke to Roxanne C and she kept telling me that I can exchange for something else which was not my interests. She would not refund the money or help me to use it in more than 3 days which was the expiration date. The other annoying thing, she kept repeating the same sentence while chatting as if she do cut and paste. So sad that managers can't do anything more than what customer rep can do. The best description to the management at groupon is Robot managers.
