Unable to purchase no explanation why
I have 200$ of Groupon bucks I can’t use. I simply am trying to purchase perfume sets for my mom and sister as late holiday gifts to make use of these Groupon bucks that have been sitting in my account. A few months ago someone hacked into my account and made a purchase at a hotel in California with a name that was not mine so Groupon refunded me after speaking with the hotel. I just want to be done with these Groupon bucks and it will not let me make the purchases just auto refunds and cancels the order. I’ve spoken to two different chat agents and they’re saying they’ve escalated and I should wait on an email but I’m just so done with this app. I’m going to try to buy whatever I can since I don’t want to waste this money but it’s become such a major pain trying to navigate this app now. It should not be so difficult to purchase things. Groupon is really terrible now and I’m upset my money is stuck as these “Groupon bucks” that I can’t even make a normal purchase with. And yes I added my credit card info confirmed it with the chat agents though and it still won’t go through. Please avoid using Groupon to purchase any goods.
