Yep it expires today so be QUICK everyone who hasn't used it yet!!!
I will check my bank account as well but am HOPING I was only charged £2.50 for the Chemist4u perfume deal , not £7.50!!!..
Is the riverboat cruise one a new one???
The only other ones I could find are the ice cream one & waffles & drink one , both in London ( still available! )
Sorry to those who were overcharged , make sure they refund your card ASAP xx
( My payment isn't showing on my statement yet but I didn't check it that properly when order went through as I assumed it would be for just £2.50 , didn't know I would have to keep a closer eye on it 'just in case' Groupon overcharged me! ) :mad::mad:
I'm getting less and less trusting with Groupon now tbh , looks like you have to be CAREFUL with them on every level and @ every stage of every deal!
I can't be ARSKED with them anymore tbh as its not ''if things go wrong'' anymore but WHEN things go wrong as it has become standard now:(:(

Hi guys,
Just as a warning - you may have applied the voucher code - but if you fail any of the validation checks on the form below - groupon's page will sort of refresh and the voucher code will come out again and you will need to re-enter. This happened to me a few times yesterday as groupon does not accept email addresses with a fullstop in it. So before you click accept check that the price is the price you are expecting to pay.0 -
Word of warning---check your Bank a/c or CC......Groupon have just charged me for the "FREE" £5!!
That's annoying. What payment method did you use? I used Paypal and only authorised the amount less the £5 voucher, and that's what's showing in my Paypal account, so there better be no funny business! Still at least I can take it up with Paypal as well if I need to.0 -

I have just bought the personalized santa letters, used the code, but they have taken the money out of my credit!!
Brilliant! Was wondering what to use it for and the three little monsters will be chuffed to receive letters from Santa. I too had to re-enter the code on payment page after it refreshed for details. Only £4.50 for this deal (3 letters delivered) so didn't cost a penny. :beer::j:beer::jIt only takes a second to say thanks! :beer:
Remember: Amazon prices change quickly!!!0 -
I already used my voucher (see above), so I'm going to be extra money saving and design one on the computer, print it, sign it, envelope it, add a stamp and post it to my son lol!Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21

Its a right C**k up by Groupon, theyve admitted their mistake, and I can have £5 credit to my a/c. I have redeemed the Graze voucher.. I do not want "£5 credit to my a/c, I want the £5 back, Bl***dy cheek.
That's ridiculous, surely if you were overcharged you should get the cash back. Giving you £5 credit means you have to spend more on their website, and from what I know about their arrangements with those honouring the offers, it costs them hardly anything to give discounts/freebies. What a swizz! :mad:Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21

Did you pay extra amount with card?
I don't think its possible in my case as i didn't fill in any card details. I just put the code in and it took off £4.99 for the ice cream deal??0
