I can't believe that the author wouldn't try Groupon again if his favorite restaurant offered one. The value is just too great.
And if the Groupon doesn't live up to your expectations:
From the Groupon Blog:
"If Groupon ever lets you down, we’ll return your purchase—simple as that. Why? Because when we do a bad job, we want it to be easy for you to punish us. We believe that when a customer has a bad experience, companies pay for it sooner or later—so we’d rather pay fast so we can make things right before it’s too late."
And from their About page:
Unbelievable customer service. Like you, we've suffered through hour-long "transfer-athons" with customer service departments, or waited days for an email reply to to a simple question. If you contact us, we'll do what it takes to make things right - and we'll do it fast. Email us, or speak with a human (during normal business hours): (877) 788-7858"
I can understand why a business might have a gripe with Groupon (even if its their own ignorance that caused the gripe), but I can't imagine why a customer could be disappointed by Groupon with that kind of policy.
- klochner 16y agoThat's the wrong question to ask: Would I want a deal from my favorite restaurant? Yes. Do I want to evaluate the deal every day to figure out if it's worth buying? No
- WillyF 16y agoAll you need to do is read the subject line of one e-mail a day, and maybe look at a few e-mails that catch your eye. I've saved hundreds of dollars on stuff that I would have already bought. That's probably not good for the businesses, but it's good for me.
- klochner 16y agoI'm not saying it has no value, just that personally I've decided the daily deal isn't valuable enough to distract my attention every day.
