My refund case number is 223634!
On 26.02.23 I placed an order witch i never received.
After a long fight with a horrible company called Durest,the business company of Living Social, they agreed to refund the money.
I contacted Wowcher Living Social asking for my money to not be crefited to thir walle as i have no intention,after my experience to ever buy something from them.
They credited the wallet to force myself to buy from them,and didn't even put all the money!

Bought a massage

Bought a massage. Took a day off work to go to appointment but when I got there the massage place told me they were taking living social to court as they haven’t received a penny from living social for all the treatments they have sold. Told me they cancelled all appointments booked through them and living social should have contacted me to let me know which they didn’t . Wasted a holiday for nothing. Don’t deal with them.

Terrible company

Terrible company, I ordered a chest of drawers & paid €115 + postage, never received so upset & you can’t contact an actual person. This was back in March & no matter how I’ve tried I can’t get my money back, how do they get away with it…. Please beware!

BEWARE DYSON SCAM

BEWARE: Dysons sold on Living Social are Damaged, Filthy, STINK and the motor sounds on its last legs. Presumably rescued from a tip or skip. The people Living Social/Wowcher partner with to sell them are UTTERLY dishonest. BEWARE

This is the worse company I have ever have to have dealt,
They took two payments from my account, for the item I ordered and the voucher. The item never arrived and I spent weeks trying to get my money returned.
Eventually I had one of the payments returned and despite my persistent effects I could not redeem the voucher, then to be told it had expired, this amounts to theft.
I am still trying to make a formal complaint
My advice don’t use this company

AVOID this is a complete SCAM

AVOID this is a complete SCAM. I ordered garden pots they charged me for a VIP program I had not requested.
Having charged my credit card they state I have to redeem a voucher, is this further trickery?
I sent 5 emails just an automated reply.
Yes this stinks DEFINITELY AVOID
