LivingSocial Reviews 256

Crap and more Crap, I have paid already for the item and still no delivery date, now over 10 days, I am not a happy bunny, if this lot doesn't get their stuff together they will simply fail and it will serve them right!!!!!

Sent the wrong item. Paid £30 for delivery. Now expected to pay £30 to return. Deliberately misrepresented and a scam. How are they allowed to continue? Wowcher not bothered. You sold me an item I did not receive.

It was a lesser value and not as described. This is illegal under The pricing practices of retailers must comply with the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations, which ban misleading actions.
The regulations also give you the right to redress. The following practices fall foul of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations. You have done fallen foul of the clause in bold below.
Dodgy discounts: Products advertised as 'on offer' for longer than they were sold at their full price, or increasing in price when they’re on multi-buy offer.
Bait advertising: Luring the consumer with attractive advertising around special prices when the trader knows that they cannot offer that product, or only has a few in stock at that price.
Bait and switch: Promoting one product with the intention of selling you something else
They knew what they were doing and I now have to risk returning an item I may never get a refund for and at my own cost. Why is trading standards not being contacted for a class action for this company???

AN APPALLING WEB SITE. FOR SOME REASON I AM BEING BOMBARDED BY THEIR USLESS AND UNWANTED EMAILS. I HAVE NEVER BOUGHT FROM THEM OR FROM ANY ORGANISATITION LIKE THEM. I WOULD NEVER WANT THE CRAP THEY TRY TO SELL ME. WHERE HAVE THEY GOT MY EMAIL FROM AND THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD BUY FROM THEM.

I ordered online a mini oven , it was a good price , I didn't really understand about vouchers . When I understood to use my voucher which had a week left on it , I was prompted to pay £5-99 postage everything was accepted but I did complete the order they had taken my money . I waited a week no contact when it would be delivered. I finally got through on watsapp chat and the said my voucher had expired . So I paid money for nothing , they would not answer my questions , they only said the voucher has expired.
This company is a scam I don't really know how they are allowed to trade they use different names like wowcher , everything they do is dishonest and confusing. Don't use this company

Avoid!! I ordered tablets as a Christmas present. Didn’t arrive the phrasing of their email that they will credit you if you click on their voucher means that’s a further 20-30€ debited from your bank account. It’s extremely difficult to speak to someone, they’re really unhelpful and I was left €150 down before Christmas

I have bought a pair of ladies slip on open back trainers/shoes. They are totally cheap like your'd get in a pound shop. Dangerous too as the heel is raised so you feel you are toppling over. They are also so flimsy so you have no hold in them. Worst thing I bought from them. And they only arrived on 10 March!

Do mot use this COMPANY.
HIDDEN EXTRAS .£39 for delivery £49 to return
DON'T DELIVER WHAT ADVERT SAYS.
Stuff totally different from photo..
Customer service NO GOOD.
Do not use .Use at YOUR RISK

I ordered a work bench from liveing social on 26 January 24 has not been delivered, customer service a joke keeps giving me the same excuses

Is this company a joke.
How do you contact them. Do nog use.

I paid £39.99 for a wheelbarrow 5.2.2024 . Guess what - I didn't get one nor did I get a refund . At first I got asked for all my details by staff with no surnames like Geeta , Meena, Sanjay. then ignored. Total Scam.
The Law/Trading standards in this country should be taking these thieves to task instead of hounding the motorist! I thought I bought a Wheelbarrow from Living Social / Wowcher / Groupon whatever name they are now using but I was issued a worthless voucher number - 6HJ56639F7212372X.

I've paid £16.99 for a holdall for my dentistry abroad....weeks have gone by and nothing....I'm back now....all phone numbers are dead ...and your site is full of same complaints......where is my delivery....or where is my money....nobody can get hold of them ,they know that..

AVOID IT
Horrific customer service, not possible to get through via email, always bounces back.
Shouldn't be allowed to stay on a market.

Still not received my order after almost 4 weeks. Have tried to ascertain the current situation, each time I received email from different operator asking me to give the same details over and over again. One operator informed me that my order no. was from 2011 even though ordered in January 2024. Payment deducted from my account, this is a scam will pursue via my PayPal or my bank and report to Ombudsman. Please avoid this company at all costs.

These are wowcher and total scam artists. I ordered an item, which is not as described and wanted to return it. They have said they have a different email for me(a very old one no longer in use)....yet they confirmed my voucher bought via my email i use now!! I am going to take them to the ombudsman, seems they are scamming a lot of people. STEER WELL CLEAR!!!!!

Living Social is a front for Wowcher. They offered an item for £10 and then took £139 from PayPal. Weeks of endless emails with different representatives every time. Their staff must be numbered in thousands? Eventually had to inform them I was taking out a CCJ against them to get my money back, minus the original £10, still no item though. AVOID THESE SCAM ARTISTS.

I ordered a rose gold Michael kors darci ladies watch on the 14th of December as a Christmas present for my terminally ill wife
Mk 3192
What was opened on the day in the box was a mk5166 chronograph watch which my wife did not like and I did not order
I have tried for 4 days to contact living social but to no avail
How they can treat people like this is beyond me
Disgraceful

Absolute nightmare!! Practically impossible to get through to them - looking for a refund - then told - too late!! One way to make a quick buck - I call it stealing! I asked for the total amount of money they 'acquire' this way in a year - no response! Don't let them acquire (steal) any of your cash!!

They are spamming me several times a day. Clearly a total scam, as I'd never heard of them and certainly didn't sign up to them. I dare not unsubscribe, becaust that will confirm my email address.

Money were taken from account for products, for delivery, for vouchers?
I am not complete shopping illiterate, but the way they selling is not a deal at all.
It's just another fast pay- never see goods online.
There is not clarity when your order will arrive or tracking or any msg at all about the shipping or delivery progress.
Just very fast to take payment and then leaves customers waiting :when your goods will arrive; how much postage and etc.

Never again. Would give no stars if could. How does this company get away with taking your money and then not delivering the goods? Time and time again? Disgraceful. Why are they not regulated?
