You canceled my night at the Karahari Resorts. I want my money refunded, not Groupon Bucks. It took me a week to get ahold of someone at your support center and was told it was past the cancelation policies to request a refund. You just canceled it last week. I am not working! Due to Virus! I need that 300 dollars, not the Groupon Bucks. How is 300 of Groupon Bucks going to help me at this time. I request a call at [protected]... I want my money refunded now!

I bought a Groupon for a weekend stay at a local hotel. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic the hotel closed a few days prior to our reservation. The hotel assured us Groupon would refund our costs. Sure enough a couple of days later Groupon sent an email saying they were going to provide a full refund. A subsequent email from Groupon then indicated my refund would be in the form of Groupon bucks and was this resolution acceptable. I quickly informed them it was not and wanted my refund in the same form in which it was paid. Groupon is refusing to give me my money back

I was a returning customer for "Kenny Ribs" located in Country Club Hill, IL. I am on longer one because, after my last two visits, on 2/18 and 2/27/2020, I received rib tips that were 50% bone, 25% meat and 25% fat. I don't know what happened to the quality of food they used to serve! Although I must admit the cashier and cook are very friendly, he (the cook) has to know that the meat served is of poor quality. Imagine purchasing a large rib tip meal, for approximately $19.75, and you receive 50% bone, 25% meat and 25% fat. Also note: I always have to spend additional out of pocket funds in order to use the groupon...if the groupon is for $20, you must purchase additional food in order to reach the intended amount of the groupon, otherwise they won't accept it. For example, I may have to buy an order of fries, which cost a little over $2.00, to meet the 25 cent needed to use the $20 groupon.

I will continue to use Groupon for future purchases, just not at this location. I am quite disappointed that I spent, on the 14 of Feb, $27.11 and on the 26th of Feb, $19.20 for fatty rib tips.

The reason I chose this location, initially, was because I had been buying a variety of foods from them in the past and was pleased with my purchases.

I have all docs and a video. Groupon purchased at $80.00 as Christmas present; interior cleaning of automobile.
**Initial call to OC Detail, no return call, had to call back.
**groupon recipient made appointment for this morning; he says be there at 9am.
**went as directed, owner not there to accept car. To leave car needed ride from my wife.
**at 1:39pm today, owner calls me telling me it's dirty and an additional $100.00 "GROUPON SHOWS $159.00 VALUE". I HAVE THE COPY.
**I had to go pick up my daughter to go get the car, which he said, have it here by 9am, but had not started on it by 2:00pm.
**We picked up car, so wasted gas twice by car to be detailed, wasted time and gas for my wife this morning, and my car this afternoon.
**We get there to pick up car, all doors locked, the overhead door open 3 feet, had to yell to say hello. They habded keys back under partially raised door. ALSO, no nam eof company, nothing.

SO.lt's see value as you stated vis groupon $159.00 I paid $80.00 He asked for $100.00 THIS IS A SCAM. I will never use Groupon again, I want a refund asap. Rediculous...

I joined Groupon Select for the 6 month required period. I have no complaints about Groupon Select itself, I joined for a reason - met my objective and made a reminder to cancel after 6 months.

My complaint has to do with cancelling. Like any other subscription service, you have to cancel EXACTLY how it is detailed in their instructions.

I did that. But, it never acknowledged that I cancelled the membership. To make sure that I cancelled things correctly, I took screen shots. I took a screen shot showing I had paid for the 6 months. I took screen shots of the cancellation policy in place. I took screen shots of performing the cancellation procedure.

It didn't help. When I contacted Groupon via Chat, they asked for the screen shots, which I provided. Then they asked for mail evidence of the cancellation.

DUH! What mail evidence? The reason I took screen shots is because I could tell the on-line cancellation procedure wasn't working.

They did cancel it via Chat. But I knew it wasn't going to get cancelled without a fight and I was right.

Their 877 customer support phone number is just a message that redirects to the website. The website supposedly won't let one contact a person without signing in or identifying the order. Once signed in, one must "select an order to get started." there are options to change aspects of the order if you select an order.in my case, one of those buttons is creating an error code. I've scoured endlessly. There is absolutely no way to contact a person, despite groupon claiming to have one. Not even a forum. This is just rude and uncalled for. I'm left in the dark with my order. I will have to take legal action to get my money back.

A local supermarket was having a really great groupon deal, so I signed up for a groupon account and bought the deal. Seems simple right. Not when it comes to Groupon. My order first said it was pending processing all day. When it was never processed, Groupon customer service available via live chat assured me it was all fixed and that my order would be processed soon...that was more than a day ago and I have received no resolution or explanation from Groupon. I now remember whey I didn't have a Groupon account in the first place...I am a very busy single mom and just don't have time to spend an entire day on something that should take five seconds.

I used groupon one time several years ago, and decided to try them again this past summer. I purchased one Groupon for $9 off sushi at a restaurant in Orlando in July.

To redeeem the groupon, in September, I downloaded the APP to display the groupon easily. Shortly thereafter I have two charges for $4.99 one dated September 19th, and one dated September 20th. I am told these charges are for GROUPON select. I never signed up for the service. They claim I did. I see others have this same experience. I have contested these charges with my bank.

I believe this company is engaged in FRAUD, as they refused to refund these unauthorized charges to my card. I am [protected]@hotmail.com and willing to join with others in a class action lawsuit against the Company.

I purchased a Groupon for the Las Vegas Food and Wine Festival scheduled for October 5, 2019, several weeks in advance. Before the event, my mom passed away and her funeral services would be held on the same day (October 5, 2019) as the festival in Illinois. I contacted Groupon before flying out to see if I could have this Groupon returned for Groupon bucks I could use in the future. I was told by a representative that there was nothing they could do. This shouldn't be in extreme emergencies there is nothing they can do, even the airline industry has more heart than Groupon. I would never purchase again from a company that lacks compassion in the midst of such a devastating event. I would also not recommend to anyone else to buy from Groupon especially for advance events. God forbid a life changing event happens, Groupon simply doesn't not care.

I purchased 4 personalized Christmas stockings from your company through Groupon early this morning. When I went to personalize them, Qualtry said I would have to pay an additional $11 per stocking to ship. That's $44 plus the what I already paid. I want to cancel this order! I've been online trying to get help with this for hours. Groupon says I have to contact you. You say you cannot refund, it has to be Groupon. I'm so exhausted and frustrated. Please help me!

I purchased the groupon voucher I think in February of this year.

On my first visit for the consultation I mentioned that I had been experiencing facial pain and they advised to seek medical advice before they could carry out the treatment.

I did and was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia. After informing aesthetics of Liverpool they advised that they would not be able to carry out the treatment.

Therefore I require a refund of £79.00.

I await your response.

Kindest Regards

I purchased 3 vouchers from Groupon. I used one on 8/9/2019 and contracted a skin rash, an URI and a stomach virus. They have had numerous complaints including being shut down 3x! I have requested a refund on the other 2 vouchers and no one has contacted me at Groupon and their phone number does not let you speak to a live human or even a recording. Groupon should not be advertising an establishment that has broken many legal codes and health codes. I will go to every agency there is until this is resolved.

I submitted a purchase for 4 Pitbull tickets yesterday. My order went to 'processing 'status.
I emailed to find out why. I was told my credit card was the problem. This was the same card that had successfully purchased a groupon earlier the same day.
I verified the credit card info and purchased 4 tix again. Again they went to 'processing status'.
I emailed to find out why and was again told it was my credit card.
I entered a new credit card and purchased 4 tix yet again. Same 'processing' limbo. Same response that it was my credit card.
Today the orders have vanished and customer service now informs me that the reseller stopped fulfilling orders.
#1 - I was lied to about the credit card issue
#2 - if they rean out of tickets, why did they keep allowing purchases?
I have been cheated out of tickets and want someone to call me back. I did request that a supervisor call but nothing.

I purchased a bubble spa on Groupon. Cost $409.99. Delivered withbut a defective heater. I called the vendor and after extended wait was told they would call me in 2 business days with a fix. When no call came, I waited an hour on hold & left recorded message asking for a resolution. Days later Groupon claims they fully refunded. No refund received

I payed $25.00 for an oil change. When it was done I was handed another bill for an additional $34.58. I expected to be paying for the oil disposal fee but that was all. He never said that his oil changes were $59.58. If I would have known that I would have gone somewhere else. I'm feeling very ripped off right now. I've bought Groupons before and never had a problem. Can you possibly help me with this? I didn't even get a sticker on my windshield.

Their Representative was so uncaring and had no interest or empathy at all to try to help me with some unauthorized purchases.. if you look at my years of ordering and order history I have never had any disputes or problems with Groupon. a few mos ago I ordered two sets of satin sheets and until recently a pleased customer. Recently Three sets of these sheets has been unauthorized purchases on my card. Two were made that generated the chat call. I did not know of the purchases until I saw a confirmation email. Tried calling to no avail and directed to your chat which was awful. Immediately after got off the chat line another set was charged on my card and unauthorized. Was informed nothing could be done until I received order than I could return for refund. You are emptying my checking acct out with these unauthorized purchases. Will be seeing my bank first thing in the morning to block groupon from taking any more funds out of my acct. Your policy is terrible and even though I have been doing business for several yrs will discontinue all purchases with groupon. Your customer service recently is the worst have ever experienced and your policy way below unsatisfactory. If this is how you treat a loyal customer I want no part of this company. I am requesting all my monies to be refunded back to my checking acct immediately. I am done with groupon due to your unsatisfactory customer service, unfair practices and unauthorized charges.

I purchased this product only to find out I didn't have the right phone to use the voucher. Groupon billed Pay Pal and American Express I never authorized this charge twice the amount is $149.00. I also had 2 Groupon that expired I they locked me out of my account. This issue has been going on since Jan 2019 I have tried calling them and I get someone overseas ! I never received the product !

Groupon has been repeatedly calling and emailing us about advertising. We can recall at least 3 months of calls and emails, maybe more. We told them months ago we do not want to advertise with them. They continually call and tie up the phone lines, we are a medical office with patients who cannot get through when they are calling after we asked them not to- we have a list of multiple patients who have had to leave messages when they call because Groupon will not stop talking and the staff has been intimidated. (I have since advised them to just hang up). Today, 070819, "Angello Bray" from Groupon called and I asked him to take us off of their call list and stop emailing us and he fully denied that request. I told him that we do not want to do business with Groupon. He proceeded to tell me that "If you don't want any more customers than you are sad" and he continued with several more insults. I asked for a supervisor and he refused. I asked for the department that would handle complaints and he refused. I asked for a return phone number for Groupon and he refused. After I hung up the phone he emailed us, after I advised that we dont want any more phone calls or emails.
