      We purchased a hotel night for Great Wolf Lodge in early November. My family and two other families were supposed to go to the hotel on December 26, 2022. *******, **, where we all live, fell victim to a devastating blizzard where there was a multi-county driving ban. The blizzard even made national news. Groupon refused to allow ** to reschedule our hotel stay. We just want to get what we paid for. They told us we should have read the fine print.

      On 12/23/2022 I discovered my Groupon account had been deactivated. Upon contacting Groupon I was told there had been suspicious activity in Nov *************************************************** They keep asking me to verify my last purchase which I have done multiple times but then continue to say it has to be escalated and they cant re activate it. I have not received a response back in the ***** hour timeframe other than numerous new agents copying and pasting scripts asking me to verify a card number that isnt mine or telling me to give them credit card details from other purchases which I dont have from over a year ago. I have provided proof the email belongs to me via screenshots of prior transactions, offered to verify my email if they send a code, offered to show proof of my ID, provided all details of last authorized purchase and yet they will not re activate . I have over $300 in Groupon bucks from refunds for purchases. Ive also found this is happening to other customers who have made large purchases or have large amounts of Groupon dollars. They claim there is no phone number or anyone I can speak to other than using the email or chat function which continuously goes offline. *****************************************************************************************************

      I am rejecting this response because:

      it is the same response Ive received from every agent that does not address the issue of my account being deactivated. 
      I am not disputing a fraudulent charge. Im trying to gain access to my account after having it deactivated without warning by Groupon who claimed suspicious activity. I provided state photo ID, emails of previous purchases and returns that I still have access to and again requested I be given access to my account and Groupon bucks.

      Complaint: 18647924

      I am rejecting this response because: there are no additional billing details to provide. As previously stated and shown in attachments, I have provided the last purchase was done using Groupon bucks for a tent that was later returned resulting in refunded Groupon bucks end of 2021, provided a state ID, provided my billing address, provided details on prior approved purchases.


      Groupon continues to act in bad faith deactivating loyal customer accounts with hundreds of ********************** bucks and refusing to re activate our accounts demanding billing information of fraudulent charges we dont have access to, asking me to verify a bank card number that wasnt mine, and resending copied and pasted scripts over and over while providing no phone support and asking for people to give sensitive information via chat and email.

      They now want purchase info from over two years ago that I dont have access to. Certainly photo ID , screenshots from my email of last approved purchase as well as additional purchases , verification of my address are enough to prove my identity and give me access to my account and Groupon bucks. The only resolution is to give me access to my account to use my Groupon Bucks.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      you have continuously asked me to verify a fraudulent card/purchase that was supposedly attempted on my account to which I have no knowledge as my account was deactivated without explanation or warning. I have verified my identity with a state ID, my email, address and prior purchases made with Groupon bucks. I continue to receive copied and pasted requests for my billing info and told what I have provided does not match. If state issued ID is not enough to verify identity then I dont know what else is. I cannot provide info on charges or an attempted charge Im unaware of. Im emailing from the account I use for Groupon, I have explained at length the issue and have not received any reasonable or coherent response.

      I purchased two groupons for my family's christmas to go roller skating. Each groupon was for 6 people to skate while the rink was open and included a piece of pizza and a pop for each person. There were 12 of us. I purchased them for $68 total. When we arrived, they refused to honor the groupon certificates. I then had to pay $160+ for the 12 of us to go roller skating. We did not get food or drink. I did get a refund from Groupon, but paid much more money, and had to purchase food and drink on top of that. This was part of my family's christmas present from me, and I ended up spending a lot more money than I wanted to on the event. I expect to receive more money back from Groupon to cover the additional cost of the entry fees, along with the food money I had to spend.

      I placed 3 orders for a 60-minute therapeutic massage using my Groupon Bucks.1. Groupon does not provide notice on the checkout or cart page of 3 to 24 hours of processing time. 2. You are required to provide credit card information even if using an in-store credit which is unheard of. 3. After almost 20 hours of processing my order(s) was canceled. In the email, it stated for me to double check my payment information which was accurate as it was the same information used in 2 previous orders done that same day and again, I was using Groupon Bucks 4. I contacted customer service who asked me to confirm my billing information which again shouldn't be necessary since I am using a store credit but I did and now they can't place my order using the credits still on my account. Then they proceed to say they escalated it and now I have to wait 7 days and could not provide me with a phone number for customer service. 5. I want my order placed or I would like to cash out my Groupon bucks. I really do not want to do business with Groupon any further.

      Just to let you know, sometimes our system prevents orders from processing if it thinks they might not comply with our terms of use.

      * Wait 72 hours before attempting another purchase
      * Clear your cache and cookies
      * Retry your order on a different browser

      Thank you for reaching out to us through the Better Business Bureau. I have reviewed your most recent comment and all internal Groupon correspondence. I responded to you a moment ago via email from Groupon.com.

      Regarding your complaint: I'm very sorry about the inconvenience you've encountered. I can absolutely understand your frustration.

      I can confirm that our system processed your refund successfully on 11/19/2022. You should have received an email confirmation shortly after this refund was issued. If you're not seeing it, I recommend checking your spam folder to make sure our emails aren't ending up there.

      The refund was processed successfully for the order, however, as the purchase was for a Groupon US deal made using ******** currency, you may see a small difference between the charge you initiated and what was actually collected.

      Purchases made on Groupon.com are charged in US dollars unless specified otherwise. If you will be charged in ******** dollars for a specific deal, there will be a "C" before the dollar sign. 

      Thank you for your understanding.

      *** signed up for a number of Groupon+ deals which are supposed give you 8% cash back to your credit card. Despite getting email confirmations that Im receiving the cash back, I have not received any cash back. Their C/S is now impossible to navigate with a chat engine that constantly disconnects and no way to actually talk to a person directly. This is frustrating and seems like a scam to get you to go to businesses that are paying them, but they never give the money to the consumer. The agent at one point offered Groupon bucks but I dont want those. I want them to honor the cash back that they promise. Their agents are clueless and one said I spent the cash back which is not accurate. I had a refund of a prior Groupon that I used for a new Groupon, but this is completely separate from the Groupon+ which puts cash back directly to your credit card.
