Campaign builder
Im trying to create a groupon campaign for my heating and air company and I keep getting emails saying to need to upload or update and they keep giving me the run around. I have done everything Im supposed to and keep getting rejected. They ask me to add a radius and zip code in the fine print but theres no option to do that. The tell me to upload insurance and I do that, Ive done everything at least 5 times each. I also got rejected from an air duct cleaning campaign because groupon said I havent been in business long enough and that I need to be in business for at least 6 months. I have no idea where that info came from because we've been in business for 15 years. We are a licensed, bonded, and insured hvac comapany with an A+ on the BBB and 5 star raings on just about every website that holds reviews for comapnies. Im really upset that its being handled this way. Someone please fix this so we can run our campaign fair just like everyone else.
Thank you

Groupon deleted new account without any notice
Groupon for whatever reason will close your account without any notifcation to the account owner. Using an excuse of Terms violation is the easiest way to close new accounts and claim unused funds.
While attempting to purchase two groupons with their new user discount code, the site kept erroring out. Eventually the groupons were purchased and I believed I was good to go. I went to check today and the account was terminated. I "chatted" with customer support for hours because Groupon probably decided that it was easier to be a heartless entity over text.
Desired outcome: Reach out to the account owners and allow us to explain what/if anything is going on. There's probably a chance that our account was hacked or your (Groupon) services were down.
valvoline
This week I purchased a valvoine groupon for a synthetic blend oil change which I used today at the valvoline store on highway 70 s in Nashville, tn.
I was greeted by a young man who I told I would like a synthetic blend oil change and to mark my sticker for 7500 miles from my current odometer reading.
I waited for approximately 40-45 minutes while several technicians were doing something under my hood and when the manager walked by I asked if there was a problem and he told me a large socket had fallen between the radiator and the fan blade and they had to get it out to prevent serious damage. While they were working on it another technician gave me a printed sticker marked to change the oil in 3000 miles. When the first contact came by my window I asked him to do a new sticker and actually wrote out the mileage and change date so there would be no question.
After they finally retrieved the socket another person came to my window and I gave him the groupon and he advised I had purchased one for a synthetic blend and my bmw requires a full synthetic oil but he would use the groupon valued for $43.99 and I could pay the difference which he said was going to be an additional $123.41! I know their were full synthetic groupons for $89 and the sum of my groupon cost and the additional came to $167.40! I then asked how much a full synthetic oil change would have cost without any groupon and was told $164. So---it cost me more using the groupon and the added cost than if I used no groupon and if they had told me from the start I would have gone online right then and bout a full synthetic change for $89.99.
For further frustration I knew an confirmed that most gas stations and even places like Firestone only charge 77-$90 for the same service I was chagged $167.40. I feel the groupon information is at best mis-leading and the switch and bait tactic to the more expensive oil without my permission is clearly a switch and bait tactic. Finally even after having to wait 40-45 minutes and still not having a sticker I asked again an the technician instead of printing out what I requested just took a blank sticker and wrote out my request with a magic marker. To make things even worse not one person ever said "i am sorry" or apologized for the wait after not explaining the cause of the wait until I asked about it. The manager guided my car out and only said drive carefully.
I have purchased many group-ons over the years and definitely will never go back to this location and hope you follow up with this terrible experience sine this valvoline store reflects on your image and credibility. I await your response before deciding if I should take alternate action or begin to post my experience in on line reviews.
Sincerely

Desired outcome: a response from groupon or valvoline corporate and hopefully a partial refund for the blatant overcharge.
Merchant marketplace
This is a Groupon company. I ordered 6 bottles of Dove Body Wash. This company sent ten (10) bags of Krave Gold Labe Beef Spicy Sesame Cuts Ginger. They said it had been delivered. I offered to send the merchandise back to them in replacement for what I had ordered and they said no. I continue to contact them to no avail. No response. All I request is the product that I ordered or my money back so that I can reorder it.
Desired outcome: I want my money back OR I want the Dove delivered to me.
closed my account
my account disappeared
Desired outcome: re activate my account
Need to reach a live person, or be able to chat with them. No way to contact them, since COVID started.
I have concert tickets that were purchased in 2020. Groupon now says you can't print the tickets & you have to use the voucher. Back in 2020, you printed them. Now I don't have a Voucher to use for the concert,& can't reach anyone about it, cause they have the ticket marked as used. The concert has been rescheduled to 8/2022, IT HAS NOT been used
Desired outcome: To have someone call me & make sure I have a voucher for the concert that was rescheduled for 2 years. Groupon has made it impossible to reach them because they want to keep our money!
Groupon in General
I bought a few groupons as gifts for family members and the next morning i couldn't access my account. I contacted customer service and was told i had somehow violated their terms and services agreement. Im not sure how though cause they won't tell me! I asked what i did and was threatened with legal action LOL for buying your products? Go for it!
Unauthorized account deletion
Groupon deleted my account. I had coupons that I had yet to redeem. Groupon seems to be eliminating customer service options. The only option I could find is email so I sent them a message about a week ago. I got no reply. I tried to send another email today - I got a form field but the button to send it would not function. I think this company is about to tank. Watch the execs get golden parachutes while their rank and file are told they're out of a job and all the customer money they're holding is lost. Where is our consumer protection bureau?
Desired outcome: money back and all my info scrubbed from Groupon servers
My account doesn't exist anymore
I am trying to use my Groupon bucks for a refunded Groupon (because the business closed) that they wouldn't refund to my card but instead put back on my account as Groupon bucks. It's only $36 in Groupon bucks and my old emails say they never expire. My account no longer exists yet I haven't deleted it or done anything that breaks Groupons rules to have it closed. Please reinstate my Groupon account, I like to look back at my old Groupons and purchase new Groupons every year.
Desired outcome: Reinstate my original Groupon account and Groupon Bucks
Account deletion without permission with over usd 1000 worth of unused groupons.
I've been a Groupon customer for the past few weeks and have purchased/used a Groupon coupon for almost all days of the past 2 weeks. I yesterday made 4 high valued Groupons purchases and I got confirmation mails with order numbers till last afternoon. Then suddenly, in the night, I was unable to access my account. I had never experienced anything like this. It first said incorrect password and I carefully checked what I was typing... Nothing. I then tried to reset the password, but I got a message saying that there was no account linked to my email!
I have thousands of dollars of unused Groupon. My credit card information is still on the website, which I am unable to access.
I have tried contacting customer service via chat and emails and I keep being told to wait. They have also not been able to clarify what went wrong or to guarantee my personal and financial information is safe.
Same thing happened with me. Did you get your account back.
Stole my money!
They keep closing my account or taking my credits / groupon bucks.
Today, 2021.11.15 I tried to redeem my groupon bucks but they had already voided them from my account. They had done this previously in the spring.
Finally found how to contact live chat, but the CS said the bucks were taken by the computer as expired and there's nothing left to do!
I pointed out today was 11.15 so the credits that expired on 11/15 were still valid until midnight) No matter what I said or asked, CS gave me the same corporate answer: computer took them, this is done. Period.
Asked to speak to a supervisor, but they wouldn't pass me on. Asked for a phone number to call, they said the chat was all they do, no phone calls.
Then the CS person said "we're done" and ended chat.
Desired outcome: I WANT MY CREDITS or MONEY BACK!
Deleted my account without my consent
I went to login to my Groupon account to use my Groupon I purchase at a spa and it said no account found. I tried to reset my password and it said no account found again. I reached out to Groupon and they still couldn't verify my account. I still have Groupons to use.
Desired outcome: Reactive my account
Customer Service
I attempted to purchase a pair of tickets for a Christmas show. Because of a website malfunction, my purchase was multiplied several times. My $200 purchase turned into a 10 ticket, $1, 200 nightmare. I immediately contacted Groupon. Not able to call and speak to someone, I reached out through the chat window. I discussed the issue in detail over and over to several Agents and the lack of understanding and the inability to answer my questions made the already bad situation worse. None of the help Agents would help me correct the issue. After begging and pleading over and over again, a Supervisor called me and we spoke over the phone. He was very understanding and grasped the problem. He assured me he would cancel all of the extra ticket orders. A week later, I started getting emails from Groupon asking me if I still want these tickets in my cart? When I checked my Groupon account, I can see multiple windows regarding the multiple ticket orders. Some said purchase cancelled, some said purchase pending, one said purchased approved. Concerned about the orders that said PENDING, I started another chat with an Agent to look into it. After a long back and forth, the Agent assured me I was charged for only one set (2 tickets) and all other orders were cancelled. Another week goes buy and I receive two emails from Ticket Master saying my tickets are available for download. Following the link, I see there are 4 tickets purchased. I started another chat and the Agent could not grasp the problem. I repeatedly (3 times during the chat) asked for the conversation to be escalated to a Supervisor. The Agent finally said she would escalate it and ended the chat. No Supervisor ever reached out to me.
Desired outcome: Clarity on my purchase and the correct number of tickets purchased.
Hotel Booking NYX Hotel London Holborn tuesday 19/10/2021 - Friday 22/10/2021
Groupon Order number - [protected]
I wish to cancel this booking - it is within the time permitted for a full refund.
I have tried to cancel on the Groupon website but when I try to cancel it just directs me to an error 404 message.
I have been unable to contact Groupon via telephone - as Groupon don't seem to have one - one number picks up and then just cuts you off!
Desired outcome: I want a full refund in accordance with the terms of the booking
Charged a hotel stay for $338.55
On Friday, July 30, 2021 I book a hotel stay with Groupon for Microtel and Suite (which is under the Wyndham hotels). The hotel stay was for Friday night, Saturday night and leave at checkout on Sunday morning. We arrived to the hotel at about 10pm and the hotel had a sewage smell on the outside but I went in and checkin. Less than 10 minutes later after going up to the room I came back do because the smell was Unbearable not to mention the things this hotel said it had to offer it didn't have anything. They took these great pictures and this hotel looked nothing like what was provide. I feel tricked into booking and my money was taken and no one wanted to help . I ask the clerk at the front desk for a manger but he would not help. I could not stay there because I started feeling I'll because of the smell and start to get a migraine. I called Wyndham and they referred me to Groupon. Groupon referred me to Expedia but no one will be they bounce the blame back and forward. I have to book at a Day Inn for the night. And stay my last day at a different hotel. I spent most of my Saturday calling Wyndham to get a booking number that Expedia was requesting to pull up my information. I chatted with Groupon and they gave me a number but Expedia it was the number they use to pull up their booking information. Expedia used my name email address and every piece of information I knew of myself to give to them but they still could find my information for this booking. I ask for a manger at Groupon and because of Covid one wasn't available and I had to wait on a follow up email. I wanted a refund because I didn't stay at that hotel and couldn't stay at that hotel with my family. I spend $338.55 for a hotel that I could not stay in. I spent less than 30 minutes in that building and most of the time was requesting to speak with someone that could help. I just need a refund. All I originally wanted was to book somewhere else. But it not fair for me to have to pay for a room that I could not stay in.
Desired outcome: Refund of $338.55
Cheating customer
Help
Groupon has locked my account giving me the reason that due to Violation without explaining all of a sudden, they could not find the account. Groupon has a total of 5 vouchers + Groupon Buck worth $500.
In the month of May, everything was ok, but because of Covitt-19 the businesses, were not open and I was not able to use the vouchers. I then ended in the Hospital with Dislocated shoulder for a week and I was not able to log in to my account, as my password did not match, this went on and on for a while and I was getting tired of changing my password. I must have changed my password 20 times then they insisted saying that I must have changed the email then after two weeks they surprised me by saying that due to some violation my account was closed. I sent them few emails asking them what sort of violation I have done, and how about my refund for the money I have paid for buying the vouchers but they were not even courtiers to reply. I have been a member of Groupon for 15 yrs. They surprised me by saying that the account is locked after making me change my password for Umpteen times. According to the Groupon rule, one would never lose money. I am 84yrs old, it is not funny that a company like Groupon like the company should do that, it is a shame.
Please look into it as soon as possible and at least I should get my money back, they can take away my membership.
Below You can see the list of 5 Vouchers that were not used.
1). Carol Beautiful and Spa.
2). Turkish Bath Hamman.
3). Hair Express Track.
4). Gentle Touch Laser Clinic.
5). 221Degrekish es Salon & Spa Turkish Bath Hamm
Desired outcome: Refund full amount for unused 5 Vouchers plus Groupon Bucks
I did not receive Groupon in email after credit card was charged.
I signed up as a guest to order a Groupon on 08/28/2021. I gave my information and did not receive my Groupon in my email. My credit card was charged. I tried to contact customer service, from many sites and information, to find out what had happened. I do not have a Groupon number since I did not receive the Groupon for reference. The charge will need to be attached to an invoice to find out what happened. I will have to dispute the charge on my credit card now. I will not use this company again. As large as this company is they can not help a customer. I did want to use the Groupon.
Thank you,

Sunsport Olympia Luggage
I ordered a rolling duffel bag on Saturday Sept 7th. On Monday am, I emailed the merchant to check whether this could be overnighted (as I need this ASAP for a trip) stating that if if couldn't get to me soon, I would need to return it. I made no mention of dates, or indicated that I WOULD return it, just could this be expedited. I received an email reply stating that, no they couldn't overnight, so they took t upon themselves to cancel my order and issue a refund.
"Since there is no point is sending it to you and have you then send it back to us, I am going to cancel your order and you will receive a refund from Groupon shortly"
I did not authorize this at all- I am LIVID! I emailed immediately saying DO NOT CANCEL! I can make it work. TOO late. This customer service rep, took it completely upon himself to make a decision on my behalf.
he decided that the earliest it could arrive was several days from now etc. and his decision was to cancel my bag. I'm now without anything and scrambling to find something to accommodate my trip. I'm disgusted, and furious.
Desired outcome: None!
