Is Groupon a scam?
-
you haven’t tried Groupon? you’re missing out! I’ve bought tons of stuff on Groupon with no problems so far. The only incidents i’ve experienced are as follows:
1. Teeth Whitening - too many people buy, so could only make an appointment 1 month later. (i notice some pple said that the spa/salons try to hardsell, but this particular place gave me a free lifetime membership for future purchases and didn’t try to hardsell me. was a very pleasant experience although teeth whitening is alot more painful than you’d imagine)
2. Famous hotel chicken rice - also too many people buy, and i couldn’t make a reservation within the deadline. the hotel was nice enough to extend the deadline for an additional month.
3. Hotel stay - upon registration at the counter, they told me they were oversold that day. Which was a blessing in disguise because they upgraded me to a family suite with a sea view.
My advice, get a Groupon account now!!! -
how do they check if one prints the same coupon 2 times and use it twice?
-
there is a barcode serial number on right hand top when you print out the paper.
Aiyah I missed out the Soup restaurant deal. -
Not scam. Had very good experience especially for the restaurant deals.Got a groupon for Anar, a middle eastern restaurant and paid only 50% of the listed price… Only ever got one hair salon deal. It was good too. highly recommended!

Bought this voucher for Japanese Shabu lunch buffet. I called them last week to make reservation. Guess what? They were fully booked for all the weekends to July! @#&@#&
Who on earth will make a lunch reservation three months in advance. I'm very sure the restaurant refuses to honour what they have promised in the voucher.
The worst is that they only allow walk-in after 2.30pm. Hello! That is High tea not lunch leh@#&@#&
Futhermore, no waiting list. :mad: I have made a complaint via groupon customer service no on 31/3/12. And they did not get back to me. :mad: -

Never tried before. But they can easily traced them under your account. But will they charge you extra under promo prices or regular prices?

I believe each coupon has a unique barcode / serial number, so unlikely would be valid for multiple uses. -

For those deals that previously missed out on, try posting on this site to see if anyone wants to sell it, it's FOC to post / purchase. http://recoupon.com.sg/deallist.php?page=1 -

Not really that good quality. Seems like fading color, and is staple on the wood. S$25? Thought is S$35 :? My hb placing the order so no idea how much is the cost.
We haven't made a official complaint to CASE. As the company said will deliver end of this week. All my hb did is wrote email to groupon and the company.
The last time my hb email Groupon, their email back is
