    I got my groupon refund in the bank today. Now just waiting for O Spa to give me back my £7.50.
    Always on the hunt for a bargain. :rolleyes:

    Always grateful for any hints, tips or guidance as to where the best deals are:smileyhea

  • Hi,

    I was told 26th August that my straighteners had been "dispatched" but the tracking code was fake, the woman at the post office told me that the number pattern didn't add up or something. Still waiting on my straighteners and I've emailed O Spa so many times, I even emailed them saying that I was taking legal action and that I've contacted Watchdog. Nada. I've also heard that the straighteners are rubbish, so I don't think I even want the them, and I heard about a theory that because of the high demand they're sending people a lousy version of what was actually on offer.

    Kathy, do yours actually work/worth the £99 they say they are?

    oh god - I've just read this whole post - I'm in the same boat. I thought it was too good to be true. So where should I start? With emailing both of them?

  • well i have just plugged the straightners in and i must say although they heat up very quick they DONT heat up to the 230c advertised by groupon...For this reason i have emailed groupon as this is false advertising as far as i am aware. I have emailed to ask about getting some of my postage back from o spa but dont hold out much hope, i wont be using either groupon or o spa again.
