Disappointed
July 5, 2023

I ordered on wowcher on the 6/6/23 and up till date nothing came through my door.
I made and effort to contact them and they were saying because I did not click the voucher after my order I have lost my £30 page to them. Please avoid them at all cost. Shop with other reliable websites

Terrible
April 25, 2023

I had to give this review one star as I had no option to give Wowcher a zero rating. A shockingly complicated site to use, customer service via WhatsApp and in slow motion and every excuse in the world not to give you money back. All other reviews seem to have experienced what I have. This site is without a doubt my worst online experience and has left me £200 out of pocket.
Stay well away!

I ordered a bed frame through this company and decided to change for different style even when I redeemed voucher. I rang them up directly they were so helpful and pleasant as I was so worried cause Wowcher took so long to respond and furniture Italia refunded me straight away through PayPal. I'm very pleased

Sham company
December 5, 2023

I purchased a wowcher for a 2 course meal and a comedy show with drinks. So I book a hotel in London as we live in Northamptonshire. Pay a small fortune in train fares. Arrive at the venue to be told we are the only ones booked and they weren't putting the comedy on. We left and I am flaming furious! What will be done as far as a refund is concerned and paying towards our totally unnecessary expenses? First time I've ever used wowcher and what a sham!

A nightmare
November 30, 2022

Complicated, misleading, overwhelming email assaults. Just not worth the effort and the three things i bought werent real discounts. Available on amazon more quickly and at exactly the same cost. Bombarded by emails, dozens and dozens a week. Absolute nightmare.

Wowcher is a scam
October 2, 2022

They robbed me of £83! Their process of issuing vouchers is not explained clearly, why bother with vouchers? Just send what you want! They charged me twice for the same item & there is a £10 monthly membership fee, what i did not know about! Their appeal process is bias &if they do offer a partial refund, you got to spend it with them. Do not buy from them, they are thieves! ROBBING BASTARDS! I could not give 0 stars

Con artist wowcher
October 23, 2020

I would not recommend purchasing from wowcher. The company's they associate with are very incompetent. First they can't send the correct item, then trying to get them to respond to an email. Well what a joke! I still haven't had this issue resolved and to top it of had to spend out more money and purchase the correct bed size I needed. The buyer empire company they use is a joke!

Scammer fraud
December 20, 2022

Two months ago I ordered bunk bed for 259£ from Wowcher (bed provided by sleeping softly or furniture4you) I never received the bed and asked for refund. Never received refund either. I can't communicate with non exciting fraud company. There is no customer service. Via WhatsApp I have multiple promises that I will receive my refund.
Please help me.
It is almost Christmas and I don't have my money back.The order is *******

Wowcher is basically a losers gamble
January 16, 2021

Bought a headboard - it never arrived, I discovered it had been damaged in delivery and returned to supplier. I didn't have time to wait for another delivery and requested refund. The merchant refunded wowcher. 2 months after purchase I have a wowcher credit to be used within 3 months. A timescale to spend my own money WTF I want the money in my bank account. Lucky for me it's £35 some folk lose hundreds. Take your gamble that's what it is.

You buy items from wowcher, and you are left at the mercy of the companies that they advertise for. I have bought three items from wowcher; one I returned and was never refunded despite having proof of postage and delivery, and two I never received. All wowcher says is to contact the company, who repeated ignore me. Wowcher needs to be banned from providing their services. You buy the items advertised only to receive defective ones or never receive them with no refund. Either way, they are taking your money.

Rubbish
September 28, 2021

You will find the exact same thing elsewhere much cheaper than the so called cheap price, i quickly found some garden lights, some garden planters and other things which were supposedly cheap on wowcher at a fraction of the cost on ebay

Awful
January 8, 2024

Do not use this website. I purchased a holiday to Lake Como with flights and hotel "included". There was no flight information given once purchased so I redeemed the voucher assuming this would then allow me to select flights. I was then called by a travel agent who told me that the flights to Lake Como would get us to Italy at 11pm at which point the train to the hotel would not be running so we would have to pay €120 for a taxi. He then offered to switch the flights to more reasonable times but said this would cost an extra €79 per person on top of the already paid voucher price. I have contacted Wowcher several times about an refund and they have not responded. The customer service is appalling and the vouchers have several hidden costs which are unacceptable. Avoid at all costs.

Absolutely disgusted. Wowcher take your money then do not deliver. Do not use them, they are cowboys! You may as well pay money and burn it. I have contacted them for a refund but no answer and their form and other contact methods do not work on their website. They make it very hard for you. Deco Matters refunded me but Wowcher did not. Just about says it all really.

Shocking service, difficult to communicate with and almost impossible to get a refund after supplier failed to send goods. Woucher voucher system is total rubbish and I am really lucky I paid by PayPal who refunded all but my carrier costs which is ridiculous considering the goods were never sent.
Be safe don't use Wowcher.
