      I purchased a second voucher for a service, but was unable to receive my services. I scheduled an appointment and on the day of my appointment the owner reached out by text to cancel. I responded with the dates that I would be available that week and they never responded. I called and left two voicemails, no response. I sent two emails and also received no response. I sent a message to their ******** page and was advised to call the business. I called and there was no answer. I advised Groupon of this and even sent the screenshots. Groupon stated that it was redeemed and I had to get proof from the business that is not responding to me. Groupon stated that they will try to investigate. I contacted my financial institution to file a dispute and Groupon was dishonest and advised that I redeemed the certificate. I reached back out to Groupon and they told me I should have came to them before I filed a dispute. However, I did report this to them. I just want to be refunded for the purchase of $40 because the company is giving me the run around. Thank you.

      Problem: Groupon website pricing is higher than Groupon phone app, just minutes apart and on 2 devices with 2 different accounts to confirm the price differences. Price difference of $36.48 and can vary all the way to $60+ on certain rooms.Booked a night stay with Great Wolf Lodge on the same days, same room, same number of guests. Complaint: 1) There was no clear statement on Groupon's website to use their Android Phone Application to get a better discount. Price scheme by misleading and not stating to use which medium to purchase to get the full discount. 2) Groupon phone app is one click buy without confirmation page when a credit card is on file. Does not show a specific $ dollar amount when clicking the next/continue button. Not clearly defined when purchasing, can easily double buy an item or booking. 3) Groupon customer services plays games by asking the customer to go get multiple emails from hotel to confirm no services has been provided, then next email to show refund is possible and eligible, and then mentioning Groupon has a random pricing scheme when it comes to their software. First customer service person tells me a different booking number that was thru their partner vendor Expedia, which Great Wolf Lodge does not have so have to go back and forth couple of days till 2nd customer service person states about random pricing scheme for Groupon's software and no refund can be given by copying and pasting Great Wolf Lodge's cancelation policy. The Credit Card was charged by Groupon, but wants the customer to ask Great Wolf Lodge for the refund. Its just a wild goose chase to get a refund.I have been given the following booking numbers which I have to figure myself which numbers belongs to which entity because Groupon customer services plays games and delay ******************************: ********** Expedia: ********9KFZ-3MRZ-JSVC Great Wolf Lodge Confirmation by phone: ******** Great Wolf Lodge: Booking ID: ******** Hotel confirmation : 68794SE185099

      ID # ********- ********************.

      I am attaching Groupon's false response to my refund request.  

      1) Groupon used Expedia to book and get lower pricing thats why I got this weird Confirmation Code that is not Great Wolf Lodge (3rd Party booking Expedia Order # ********9KFZ-3MRZ-JSVC)             Therefore I was not charged by Great Wolf Lodge.  (1st picture attached shows the lie Groupon responded with, I was given the runaround since the beginning contact with them)
               Groupon charged me $339.47 and $376.18 in which they do not want to refund me and lied about who actually charged the credit card.  (Picture 5 shows the Credit Card Charges made on 6-21-23 and both are by Groupon and not the hotel)

      2) I have taken my family to Great Wolf Lodge and stayed for 2 days and I have asked the front desk and they do not see "double bookings".  
              This can be confirmed with Great Wolf Lodge  (2nd picture attached is Great Wolf Lodge email response to my booking, the $ is not shown because I did NOT pay them directly)
              Tel Reservations: ************
              Tel Resort Direct: ************

      3) 3rd picture shows my conversation on 6/20/23 immediately after the double charge/double booking problem I experienced.  I was told to pursue Great Wolf Lodge to show my innocence, that I was not being refunded and no services was given to me.  This email proof then needs to send to Groupon so they can refund me the money, this way they prevent double refunding me. (Which is a lie)  

      4) 4th picture attached on the conversation shows they denying me my refund after I showed proof that Great Wolf Lodge email shows no services  or money was paid from me personally.  Chia-******************  (I can send/forward that email to you BBB if you need it)  So this picture shows they want the hotel to approve the refund, when the Credit Card purchase was made thru Groupon and Groupon charged my credit card.
              I called Great Wolf Lodge customer service a 3rd time and they assured me, no charges was made to my credit card and everything was handled by a 3rd party vendor for all the bookings.  So why do I have to prove my innocence when I am just asking Groupon to simply refund me the double booking error?  
              
      I have called Great Wolf Lodge 4 times.
      I have reached out to Groupon over 4 times + emails thru BBB
      I have personally talked to Great Wolf Lodge customer service in person while at my stay in the hotel.
      I have talked to Great Wolf Lodge check in desk in person while at my stay in the hotel.

      All points to Groupon has my money, they just giving me the runaround and wont refund me the double booking error.

      Thanks for taking your time in reading my complaint.  I have not gotten my refund yet.

      Complaint: 20226047

      I am rejecting this response because:  Groupon keeps saying the hotel property has double booking.  I already stayed in Great Wolf Lodge and I have spoken with **************** over the phone and in person and there are no other bookings with last name **** and anything close to my first name of Chia-Nong.  Groupon charged me twice, they just need to refund one of it but they keep saying they never charged me because the hotel property needs to show proof.

      Great Wolf Lodge has phone numbers that easily reaches human operators unlike Groupon's chat only service.  Its easy to call them and verify I did not stay twice, did not get a credit, did not moved the 2nd booking date, etc.

      They just doing delay tactics.  Our credit card company already refunded us $376.18.  I am not happy with Groupon's way of conducting customer service and deceptive business practice of Website pricing is different than Phone App pricing, with no clear statements that prices differ depending on how you interact with Groupon.  I would not use Groupon ever again.  You can close the case if you like, my credit card company is more understanding of their bad business practice.

      Thank you for all your help, everyone in BBB.  


      Sincerely,

      I bought a Groupon for a maid service. The service was unable to fulfill my request despite multiple attempts. I asked Groupon for a refund and they replied they cannot refund but will give me Groupon bucks. I said I wanted cash back and also filed an investigation with my bank to receive my money back. Groupon said they would refund my money to my original form of payment but I need to cancel the bank request, which I did. My bank said I can cancel, but I would not be able to re-open this case. Groupon has not refunded my money and they have stopped responding to any customer service requests. I have two tickets open. I have no way to call them. I can't have my bank refund me either since I closed this request. My original Groupon says refunded, but I have not received the refund to my bank. I have asked Groupon about this with no response.

      I am rejecting this response because: I am not accepting or rejecting....I responded to Groupon with a new account and routing number as they asked. However, after 7 days, I have still not received a refund. I received one follow up response from them on July 8 saying they are still working on this issue. I do not want to close this request with the BBB or Groupon until this refund has been deposited.

      I purchased a Lifetime subscription of **************** 2021 from Groupon only to find out after purchasing that ********* no longer offers Office 2021. It is now ********* 365. The product key is useless. ********* says contact seller and request refund. Groupon will not refund. They keep telling me to try a different product code. It doesnt work.

      Hello *******,
       
      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 for the trouble you had with this purchase.

      I reviewed your purchase details and see that in a previous contact, your concern was escalated to our team who contacted the merchant directly and confirmed that your code has already been redeemed successfully. If you're trying to use the same code again, it will not work. I'm unable to see any contacts where our team had requested that you use a different product code.

      From the provided screenshot, we noticed that you're on setup.office.com, which is not the redemption link we have provided with your purchase. The link provided on your order is *********************************************************. Additionally, your purchase is specifically towards ***************** 2021 Lifetime License for Windows", so you will not be able to use it on a mobile device, or a mac. It is exclusively for Windows.

      If you missed your activation email and are unsure on how to access your Office 2021, please contact ********* support.
       
      Thank you for your understanding.
       
      Regards,

      I purchased 2 Groupons on March 30th. One for $304 and one for $316.80 both with different cards. The Groupon for $316.80 was never used and returned all within policy. I was refunded the $316.80 but Groupon double charged me for the $304 transaction to both affirm cards. So now Im paying for 2 transactions of $304 when I should only be paying for one. I have contacted affirm and Groupon several times without any resolve. They each say to call one another bit issue is still unresolved. Poor customer service in both ends and will not use either in the future.

      Regarding your complaint: I'm sorry for the confusion. 

      I checked your account and I can see that you accidentally purchased two Groupons for the same deal and hence you are charged twice. I can see that one of the voucher is redeemed and the other is not. 

      Regarding the unredeemed Groupon, Ive provided more specific instructions in my direct email to you. If you have any additional questions, please reply to me there.
       
      Thank you for your understanding.

      I am rejecting this response because: I do not want a credit.  I want a full refund as I have been paying affirm this whole time for a service I did not receive.  Not sure how groupon charged me twice for the same voucher.

      Sincerely,

      Regarding your complaint: My apologies for the trouble. I've gone ahead and issued a full refund to your original form of payment and removed this Groupon from your account. You'll receive a separate automated email message to confirm this as well. Please note that while we issue all refunds immediately, it may take your financial institution a few days to post the credit to your statement.

      I used trade in credit to purchase a voucher about 2 weeks ago. Since then I have been unable to access my account as they state it does not exist. I have emailed costumer service many times and they continue to ask for my credit card information. Since I used trade in credit and not a credit, I do not see why they need to know this information as it does not pertain the the situation.

      Hello Kitty,

      Regarding your complaint: I'm very sorry for the trouble you had in this case.

      I reviewed your account details and see that it has been temporarily made unavailable to use as our system detected your recent purchase as potentially unauthorized. We understand that the order was made using the available Groupon credits in your account you received from a trade-in, but the details requested from our team were not to confirm the order's transaction details, but for verification.

      Since our system has detected this account to be potentially compromised, we've requested the information to verify you as the account owner before we're able to give you access.
       
      Ive provided more specific instructions in my direct email to you. If you have any additional questions, please reply to me there.
       
      Thank you for your understanding.
