Latest Reviews and Complaints
disappointed
this is a very unfair service, please, stay far away from it.
there's a very little chance that you win something because their bids never end and not everyone is so patient to sit and wait till it ends.
And the second thing is that if you win, it doesn't mean you'll get it soon, because as a rule the items are always out of stock and it very irritates. I know what I am talking about because I gave several shots to this company and they disappointed me each time

I tried to win a computer on this auction website HappyBidDay and for some reason I wasn't able to make a bid. I contacted customer service and asked for help and some explanation and they did not reply.
After that I sent them another message and told them how unfriendly and useless they were, I was really upset with them.
Next day they cancelled my account!
Terrible website and service. After I told them the truth they immediately got rid of me!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.

| Message: | I won auctions and contacted you asking to have them extended so I could pay them. I received an email saying it was done, however I still cannot pay for the items I won it says auction payment period over!
Guess I will have you close my account since I can not bid until this is handled and you do not seem to want to handle it

Hello Doreen,
That was a month ago and we extended it for several days. Please review your previous emails with us.
[Image included of our previous emails showing the payment extension until November 19th, 2016.]
Total joke!
I made many bids and never won anything! This site is just a scam and they need only money and that's it! Too bad I did not check the reviews before I decided to participate in HappyBidDay auctions. It seemed like a great deal, but I was wrong and wasted my money on nothing! Once I even won an auction, but later received a message that the item I won was no more in stock! Total waste of time! This place is just not worth it!

Waste of time
HappyBidDay is the worst ever! That was my worst online experience. I participated in one of their auctions but it was a complete waste of time. I actually won a fire stick, but few days later received a message from them stating that fire sticks were out of stock, so I won't be getting anything! The thing is I already paid over $20 for shipping and spent money trying to get that fire stick! I will never use another online auction site of any kind! So I closed my account and I'm never coming back!

Avoid this scam at all costs
HappyBidDay.com is a scam website, I used to bid on some products sold on this webshop but after I have won and was going to pay they told me that my credit card is invalid and I need to use another one. Despite their claims about the validity of my credit card they still charged them and didn’t want to refund that money. Avoid this scam at all costs.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
SCAM
Offer great deals. Then you win. Say accept credit cards. Tried to pay with SIX MAJORgg's. Not declined tsent to a non-existent site to pay. WASTED HOURS HERE. Have a contact form and say will get back to you within two business days. IT HAS BEEN TWO MONTH WITHOUT WORD! Called them during business hours and they said "leave a message and we will return your call during business hours." They ARE FRAUDs and SCAMl artists.
STAY AWAY from HAPPYBIDDAY unless you want to waste hours of time. They willr NOT get back to you and you will not recieve your product. DISCUSTING COMPANY if you can call it that.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I don't see how anyone can win on this site they just take your $$$$
I went on this site to bid in a penny auction- what a ripoff they only have 2 -3 auctions going on at one time more of a competition than bidding, I don't see how anyone can win on this site they just take your $$$$- no win dont waste your $$$ on this site.
I tried to ask for money refund on my unused bids which obviously I do not know a refund is not allowed ...someone replied to me with threat. I just do not want to continue bidding no more and I still have remaining bids and I thought maybe that remaining bids can be refunded to me since I do not want to use it no more because you will end up paying a lot on this site instead of saving a little.
"If you are threatening us with a falsified claim of fraud we will refute claim to the fullest extent using all the data you have provided us. We have no tolerance for credit card fraudsters. "
I paid hundreds and hundreds at HAPPYBIDDAY got nothing but a SADDAY and cheap item worth $1.99. Too many bidders very few CHEAP products. Aside from the bids you have to pay, you also have to pay shipping and processing fees. Really a Rip Offf - I don't know why there are still people in that site.
I went to another site there are lots and lots of item that you can bid on DEALDASH. I paid initial 20 bids and never pay for any bid no more but still winning until now because they have free bids everyday - you only have to log in and bid 1 presto you have Free Bids ...everyday you'll have free bid and you don't have to pay any processing or shipping.
I tried to copy and paste but could not as of Sept 20, 2013 4:15 P.M. Happy Bidday has 14 auctions running... Now that they have let Canadian Bidders in its very hard to win... That is double the bidders with same amount of auctions... I have won some wonderful bargains there but they are far and few between now... Also people are bidding items up that cost 36.00 to over 36.00 I seen a Bissel handheld steam cleaner go for over 40.00 and its 34.00 on Amazon not to mention how much these folks spent in bids... Things that make you go hmmmmmmmm and wonder if bidders are that dumb or if the sites using bots to drive up bids... I do not know but I have to admit its odd.
I will go one better on this 222 auctions and give a shot of the site... I have got some great bargains there but now they have let in Canadian bidders also so there is twice as many bidding and about the same auctions... I think someone was thinking of dealdash with so many auctions up and running.

HappyBidday does not have 222 auctions running at once someone better go back and look LOL where did you get this?
I got fooled into believing this site was different than other penny bid sites I had tried in the past. I even placed their banner on my own website www.LindseySellsbooks.com and promoted them. Until I had and opportunity to try them myself. Investing in most penny bids is a scam. You pay big bucks to make penny bids $80 for 165 penny bids isn't penny bidding its dollar bids. All I have to say about HappyBidDay is Liar, Liar Pants on fire.. I no longer promote them in fact my site tell it like it is if you're going to gamble and that is what a penny bid site is; just go to a casino and have fun you're odds of walking away with cash in you pocket are better at a casino than at HappyBidDay.
I'm on the site now and I see 222 live auctions (tried to upload pic but the upload tool doesn't work on this site). Maybe you are confusing them with someone else?
I'm a regular on HappyBidDay and they have hundreds of auctions running at any one time. If my math is correct, that means hundreds of winners as well. I'd have to disagree with this one. I'm surprised CB accepted a complaint as poorly detailed as this one.
Why would "Annibe" make the comment about penny auctions being a competitive game to someone who complained that Happy Bidday had too few auctions? It doesn't make sense. And I agree that it is not a competitive game -that would be Scrabble or Monopoly. Penny Auctions are GAMBLING!
Penny auctions are NOT a competitive game! If you want to play games, get on POGO or Gamesville or another game site. The whole concept of the penny auction sites are to claim items at a discount to get a bargain or deal. Powerbidders and others like yourself who think they are competitive games are ruining the real purpose for these sites. Fortunately, some sites are starting to clean out these types of bidders and banning them from using their sites. So...wonder who will be the "losers" in the end? Can't win em all!
