Rubbish customer service
May 3, 2016

I ordered a matching kitchen set and they sent items in different colours. After 6 weeks they are still unable to tell me when I get my money refunded or when they can collect them! They don't want to send me what I've ordered and it's cost me over £100!
I would not recommend them at all.

False advertising
May 2, 2016

I purchases a groupon voucher that had an advertised value of $139.99. When I went to redeem the voucher 2 days later the redemption value was $109. After 2 months of calling and emailing groupon and the website for the voucher, I was told that nothing could/would be done.
I am very disappointed to learn that groupon participates in false advertising.

GROUPON revisited...
May 1, 2016

Several months ago I wrote an extremely critical review of GROUPON due to what appeared to be their insensitivity and failure to acknowledge that the BOBSWEEP robotic vac I bought thru GROUPON completely failed after 3 weeks of operation, thus required they reimburse me the money I paid for it. Initially, I was told that GROUPON only allowed 2 weeks for returns/reimbursements. I had several email exchanges with GROUPON, all of them led me to believe I was stuck with the dead BOBSWEEP vac. At that point, I posted on SiteJabber my crappy and frustrating GROUPON experience; I felt it was my duty to warn potential customers to beware of making any substantial purchases through GROUPON. Now, in all fairness, I feel it is my duty to report that GROUPON ultimately did the right thing and accepted a return of the dead BOBSWEEP vac, and issued me a full refund. Good for GROUPON! I just wish they had not made it so hard. The BOBSWEEP should not have died after 3 weeks... I wonder what I would have had to do if the thing had died after 3 months? I feel certain that I would have had to eat the loss. Unfortunately for GROUPON, I no longer have faith that they will back up what they sell - I hope they recalibrate and find a way to stand behind what they vend.

A review of the review system
May 1, 2016

Groupon has some decent deals from time to time. And other times, not. I found a "deal" that was nothing close to a deal, wrote a review and then had it rejected. So be wary of the company's review system. 2 stars off for shady practices.

I could take it or leave it
April 30, 2016

I've been a member of Groupon since they launched, and other than a few interesting offers here and there, it's pretty forgettable. The offers were so much the same that I stopped reading it altogether, so maybe it's changed in the past year? It was a great idea to start, but has declined to 'meh' status since then. Most of the offers they had were no better than the offers you could get on the advertising companies' own websites, so... what's the point?

No help at all!
April 29, 2016

We have been trying to come to a resolution for over a month now for tickets we purchased for flights to Iceland. We were NEVER given a promo code to use the groupon. Tuesday we were told that we should have contacted them sooner as there is nothing they can do now... what did the last month count for?! Today, the only response I have received in their "chat" is telling me that the expiration date is in the fine print. I realize that. I WAS NOT ABLE to use the Groupon within that time frame.

Poor customer service!
April 28, 2016

I ordered 2 Serta mattress sets which was over $1200. I read on their site that delivery would be in process about 2 days after ordering. I contacted customer service and told them that I was moving on the 2nd of May and that I need to change my delivery address. They told me no and that the mattresses would just be returned and I would eventually get a refund. I sent 3 more emails asking why and got the same response. I called 3 times after delivery company said that my shipment was due to be delivered on the 5th, but that they needed to verify with Groupon my new address. Groupon refused to talk to delivery company and customer service rep would not let me talk to a supervisor. He said that he was on a call and did not know when he would be available. He even got rude and just repeated the same answer about returning the mattresses if they could not be delivered. I contacted the delivery company and have to go to Baltimore to pick them up myself! I will never order from them again.

I have been dealing with this bunch of disgusting, liars and good for nothing customer service representatives! They shorten my credit. I returned the poor quality items and they did not return the full amount owed to me. I have sent them so many emails only to have all these automated (it seems) emails saying that they had processed my refund. What they don't seem to get is that my complain is due to a shortage on my refund! I am furious with this company! Anyone has or wishes to file a formal complain let me know. *******@gmail.com

San Antonio Express-News
April 28, 2016

The Groupon for San Antonio Express-News is a farce! July 2016 purchased 52-week WED & SUN delivery. In early 2017, they started billing me. After lengthy effort (Groupon was of no help whatsoever), Express-News agreed that I had subscribed for a full year. In April (2016) Express-News started billing me again. In conversation they said they were billing me because they had a price increase. I threatened to report them the Texas AG for 'bait and switch' activity. They relented and agreed that my subscription should run through JUL 2016. This is a Groupon you should pull from your offering. Most of the on-line reviews are terrible. I would never subscribe to the Express-News.

Always get what I have paid for
April 28, 2016

Thank you Groupon for being a trustworthy site I have always gotten what I have paid for and what I haven't gotten was because I have taken to long and the groupon expired. Even when this happens they still try to make it right.
