      On Thursday, October 25th, I purchased a Groupon. I booked an appointment for Monday, October 28th. On Sunday, October 27th, I received several emails. 1) my Groupon was refunded 2) the refunded was credited to Groupon Bucks which were then used to purchase a hotel reservation under a different name. I immediately contacted Groupon to explain the issue. I also provided evidence such as my appt booking and the several emails which clearly showed the purchase was fraud. It has been about a week, and they continue to tell me to call my bank to resolve the issue. I have gone back and forth with Groupon several times explaining the fraud and stating that my Groupon bucks were used and NOT my personal funds. Doesnt matter, they continue to tell me to just call my bank. They refuse to refund me. I dont understand how someone was able to hack my account to get money refunded, yet I am unable to do so when it was their negligence.

      I purchased a $135 Groupon voucher on Monday October 28 2024 for a FUE *************** discount to be used at Eternal **************** in ******, **. The voucher page states an appointment and consultation is required before service. The confirmation email states to mention the voucher at the appointment. It also said the discount promotion would end the next day. My appointment was set for Saturday November 2 2024, due to my full time work schedule Monday through Friday. However, I mentioned the voucher during my consultation, and the doctor said it was ineligible. The voucher page states, " If you are ineligible, a refund will be provided". I went to cancel the voucher, but it said I couldn't because it was past their 3 day return policy. I obviously would not have known it was ineligible til the day of my appointment. The return policy for this particular purchase is very conflicting. I do not want a refund to go toward Groupon bucks. I want a refund back into my bank account.

      Hi *****, 

      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 apologize for the trouble.

      Regarding your complaint: I understand how frustrating this situation must be for you, especially when you followed all the necessary steps to schedule your consultation and use the Groupon voucher for your FUE *************** at Eternal Hair & Esthetics.

      I'm sorry to hear about the confusion regarding the voucher's eligibility during your consultation on November 2, 2024. It is certainly concerning to learn that there was a discrepancy between what was advertised on Groupon and what you were told at the clinic. Our aim is always to ensure our customers have a seamless experience, and it is disappointing when that is not the case.

      To initiate a refund for your order, please ensure you're logged into your Groupon account using the email address: ****************************  before accessing the refund options through the following link:

      ***********************************************************************************************************************************************

      Here, you can choose your preferred refund method:

      - Groupon Credits:  These are simple to use and never expire, giving you the flexibility to shop whenever suits you best!

      - Original Payment Method: This refund might take up to two weeks to appear on your statement, depending on your bank.

      Please note that refunds will only be issued for the amount paid, excluding any applied discounts.

      After clicking the link above, kindly confirm if you were redirected correctly to the refund options page. If you encounter any issues with the refund process, please reach out to us with the case ID ********, and we'll assist you promptly.

      Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work through this matter. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.

      Hi ********, 

      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 apologize for the trouble.

      Regarding your complaint: I apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced regarding your Groupon purchase. I genuinely understand your frustration given the circumstances, and I'm here to assist you in resolving this matter as swiftly as possible.

      I can see that you purchased a service for $239.00 on Groupon, which factored in a $225.00 credit from a previous issue. It's concerning to hear that the service was marked as used without actually being received. Furthermore, I understand the urgency and importance of receiving the refund as you followed the appropriate refund request timeline.

      To expedite the resolution, I noticed there is currently no Groupon account linked to the email address you provided *********************** In order to move forward and investigate this issue thoroughly, could you kindly provide us with the following details:

      - The order confirmation number for your Groupon purchase
      - The unique code you used or intended to use for redeeming the voucher
      - Any alternate email addresses that might have been used at the time of purchase
      - The date when the charge occurred

      If your purchase was made using a credit or debit card, please include:

      - The name on the card that was charged
      - The type of card ****** MasterCard, AmEx, etc.)
      - The last four digits of the card number
      - The expiration date on the card
      - The billing address associated with the card

      If the charge was on a ****** account, please provide:

      - The ****** invoice ID associated with this transactionExample: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
      - The email address registered to the ****** account

      Thanks for your help and I look forward to assisting you further.

      Regarding your complaint: Ive carefully reviewed your situation, and I wanted to inform you that the refund was successfully processed to Groupon credits on 11/02/2024 at 01:43 PM.

      The credit is available to spend immediately and will never expire against almost anything on our site. You can see your available credit in the top-right corner of your My Groupons page, where it says 'Groupon Credits balance'. 

      When you're ready to use your Credits, make sure they apply to your purchase at checkout. Just check the box next to Apply available Groupon Bucks under Payment Method, and the number of Credits in your account will be deducted from your total.

       If theres anything else I can assist you with or if you need help using your voucher, please dont hesitate to let me know.

      I purchased a Groupon of order # ****-148517-446270 on 10/24/24 for two spa world passes in ******** as a gift. Groupon never delivered the Groupon to the recipient. I reached out to inquire with Groupon and provided all requested information (name, order #, and last 4 of credit card). Groupon indicated they cant provide me with any information and that I need to have the recipient reach out. The recipient reach out, who has no idea about this purchase. Groupon is defrauding patrons. I purchased this with my money and I am the customer and they are asking me to ask the recipient to follow up. Abilash VR, the representative who I was engaging via email, is also refusing to refund me. I have submitted an official complaint of fraud to the *** and Attorney General of Illinois and wrote Groupons Investor Relations.This is a crime against the public. Groupon needs better business practices.

      I am rejecting this response because: I was required to reach out to numerous external entities outside of Groupon in order to reach this resolution. I requested a refund in my initial correspondence, the Groupon representative refused. I want an escalation representative to reach out to me explain why Groupon is defrauding customers. Additionally, the voucher sharing function is inoperable within the Groupon website, causing perpetual issues. This needs to also be fixed. Have an escalations member reach out to be to discuss and resolve.

      Hi Erikah,

      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 **************************. I apologize for the trouble.

      Regarding your complaint: I fully understand your concern and frustration regarding the initial denial of your refund request, and I sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. I regret that this situation has caused continued issues, but I want to address your concerns as clearly as possible.

      As per your request, I have successfully processed the refund for your both vouchers to the original payment method. The reason for the initial denial by our customer support team was based on our records, which indicate that the voucher was not purchased as a gift but was instead directly purchased under the email address ************************** According to our system, the voucher was successfully added to the recipient's email address, and they should have had access to view and use the order. But, you denied as the Gift person do not have an account with **********************, but we were able to locate it with their email address.

      However, as this issue has escalated to involve our legal team, and in the interest of resolving it promptly, I have processed the refund to the original payment method as an exception. Additionally, I have escalated your case to the relevant specialists and legal team for further investigation. As you mentioned, should the *** or Attorney General of Illinois contact us, they will be provided with the appropriate information to address your concerns.

      Thank you for your understanding and patience throughout this process. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or need additional assistance.

      On May 4, 2024 I purchased a Groupon voucher for a 60 minute massage at Prioritize Your Peace for a friend (***** *******) as a gift. I used my Groupon account, listed under my email address *********************** The voucher expires on 10/31/2024. My friend tried to make an appointment using the link provided in the confirmation email but did not get a response after several days. She finally contacted the therapist, ****** ******, about the appointmentand was told that they were no longer with Groupon as of May, 2024 and that she would have to contact Groupon for a refund.After trying to contact Groupon to try to get a resolution, I have ran into several walls as there is no way to directly contact them. There is no Live Chat, no email address, and no phone number listed on the Groupon page. The online form Groupon provides will not submit. I found Groupon on X (formerly *******) and tried to contact them at (@GrouponHelpUS) but I can not submit the message as they do not follow me on this platform. I found and email address ************************************ on a complaint website and emailed them on 10/18/24 and have had no response. I submitted another email to the same email address informing them of the BBB complaint I was going to make on 10/30/2024.I have screenshots of the conversation with the massage center and a PDF of the order confirmation and both emails I sent to *********************************** It just seems strange for a company not to have an easy way to contact them in situations like this.

      Hi *****,

      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 **************************. I apologize for the trouble.

      Regarding your complaint: Thank you for reaching out and sharing the details of your experience regarding the Groupon voucher for a 60-minute massage at Prioritize Your Peace. I understand how frustrating this situation has been, and I appreciate your patience.

      Given the circumstances that led to your request, I am happy to process a full refund in the form of Groupon credits. These credits are simple to use and never expire, allowing you to apply them towards any purchase on **************************. We often run our more popular deals multiple times, so theres a good chance a similar offer will be available soon.

      If you would like me to proceed with applying the credit, please let me know by replying to this email.

      Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to resolving this for you.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      While looking for a way to resolve this situation I read many complaints about the Groupon system rejecting or not allowing others to use the Groupon Credits.

      This seems like more of a hassle.A full refund would be more suitable.



      Sincerely,
