Consistently unsubscribing but the emails keep coming. Always spam with no substance get voucher or win something with brand name in it but just database spam. Make the mistake of clicking the link and they clearly sell your data Show detailsParasites
Approximately 25 days ago started appearing in my inbox once or twice a day unsolicited . Sometimes a duplicate. Always a brand name like Arnott or Big W in the Subject but the actual email address is living social. Have tried unsubscribing but every time I enter my email address I get an automated response ‘this email address is not subscribed’. Have tried emailing but get mail delivery failure message. Can’t phone to complain either. Annoying parasites feeding off others. Show detailsHi there, We are very sorry to hear that you cannot unsubscribe... Read more

I get bombarded every day by no-reply@telstra.com.au <email@e.livingsocial.com.au> living social emails! Sometimes they send the same email twice. I did NOT subscribed to them, I've tried to unsubscribe, that hasn't worked. I've also tried to block the emails and that doesn't work. All the offers seem too good to be true so I naturally believe they're scams.

I called a few pest control companies that I found from google, very rude and total waste of time. My friend recommended bugsbusters.com.au to me. I made the online booking from their website from my office. They were very friendly and professional, they told me that the gear that they use is pets and kids friendly which was really important for me as I got kids. They also had police checks to show me because I would not allow anyone to go through my house, it is a big thing for me. I would definitely use them next time.Customer Service is NonExistent - Fine Print May as well be in a foreign language
Made my first purchase due to advertising on first page stating free shipping on all orders. This turned out to be false advertising as you had to put a code at check out but since the banner was not on the checkout page, had no way to reference it. Tried to find a phone number and just got very uncooperative chat people [names removed]. Kept referencing the fine print and would not refund $3.99 I was charged. I am sure they can afford it at the sake of losing my business and others who have experienced he same sort of unfriendly customer service. I also did not understand that this was not the company I was purchasing the boots from as I wanted to return them and was told read the fine print as they are non-returnable.Hi Cathy, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the the purchase of your item...

Do you enjoy paying a whopping $170 for a weekend stay in local and state taxes and service charge fees? Do you squeal in delight at being nickeled and dimed by a resort that charges to tour its grounds, charges for meager on-site activities like cards and movie night? Well Skytop Lodge is the place for you.Stay away from the breakfast buffet which had human hairs inside the bacon.

pon leaving with all of the ridiculous charges and pretty peeved at how they make you have to eat only their pricey food ... not a vending machine in sight. This place puts profits over people, that’s clear. Although the property is beautiful, there are limited free activities. Look elsewhere.Never got back to me. False advertising on deal
Have been trying to sort this deal out I got for sky diving and unfortunately due to my wife being pregnant we were unable to make it anymore and hoping to get an refund or see if there are other options as she would be unfit to sky dive for obvious reasons. The merchant no longer wants to deal with us as well. Contacted living social and it has taken months and yet no one has got back to us with a satisfactory reply. They insisted maybe we can go later but my wife was pregnant, the merchant does not deal with us and why would we or my family w... Read moreant to risk my life during a sky dive when the relationship has been broken between consumer and merchant. We even just asked for a credit note instead of an refund to be reasonable. We heard nothing back. Also the cost advertised on the deal was incorrect. Merchant website never had that price as advertised as rrp and was permenantly doing similar price to living social.I forgot to mention that we were more than happy to provide proof from our GP of the pregnancy and also why we were unfit to sky dive. Regardless they have inflated the prices.
All fake misleading to customers
I had very bad experience. I bought a deal through leaving social and it showed the value over $103.46 but it was totally mislead the people.serving was not even enough for one person.the menu prices were totally different from social leaving site. We had to order more food & cost us more than doubled. I was so embarrassed front of my wife when they served us the food.it was totally different quantity than normal serving. I’m going to report to consumer affair.Hi Sunny, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the the purchase of your handbag.... Read more

I purchased online courses from living social last year in December but I couldn't redeem my vouchers till February 18 because they had problems with the representative online academy, so I had to write back and forward to them until I finally could access the courses and after accessing the courses I found out they were not any courses available nor A diploma; they were only a few note pages titled as diplomas in the academy page. I wrote to living social to request a refund and advised that they couldn’t advertise education programs/ courses ... Read moreor diplomas and be delivering scrapbooks after purchasing by the consumers. They had misled advertising and sold items, which didn't exist. It is like they advertised a car and they delivered a picture of the car. So after too many days they got back to me with a link to their refund policy and said that it was my problem to change my mind to request the refund which I found manipulative and offensive.I wrote again explained their misleading advertisement the way they scam people but they avoided my explanation and changed everything to their own benefit. Not only they get your time, they also insult your intelligence. I wish to write this for the awareness of others who wants to purchase anything from LivingSocial. I would never recommend it to anyone.Hi Swan, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the redemption of your online course... Read more

I bought a high end leather bag in late November which was delivered 5 weeks later. Upon arrival the bag had SIGNIFICANT scuff marks down one side and at both top ends. I immediately emailed Living Social asking for a refund and the address to which I was could return the bag. Living Social responded asking for photos of the bag. I responded straight away with photos and asked again where I was to return the bag. I received another email saying they would have to wait for the sellers response and again no return address was supplied. I reminded... Read more Living Social that by Australian law I was entitled to a refund for damaged goods. Response was "Be patient please". This went on for another 2 weeks and in a following "Be patient" email they included the email sent to the supplier which stated I wanted the bag replaced. At NO TIME did I request the bag be replaced. I was not willing to wait another 5 weeks for another bag. Again asked to be patient. Opened a dispute with PayPal and after talking to them escalated to a claim. Within a few days PayPal had contacted the supplier, agreed I was entitled to a refund and supplied the address to return the bag. I assume Living Social was to notify PayPal when they received the bag. Well that DIDN'T happen. I had tracked my return and 5 days after they received it rang PayPal. They checked the Tracking number and processed a refund within minutes. Living Social repeated delayed the refund process and I will not deal with them again.Hi Dooks, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the the purchase of your handbag....

I purchased a 6 bottle box of Cabernet Merlot with free delivery from the LivingSocial site & instead received 6 bottles of Chardonnay. Raised a claim with LivingSocial that I received the wrong goods, & they asked for proof of this. I replied by sending them a photo of the box the wine came in which said Chardonnay, plus a copy of the barcode which would correlate that it was Chardonnay in the box. A few days went by & LivingSocial contact for more proof, like photos of the bottles....can you believe it. I could not believe the gall & the impe... Read morertinence of the request. When I queried this as being ridiculous as I had already provided proof, they advised they could not proceed to supply a refund. I replied back that I was not going to dance to their tune as I believe it was a delaying tactic & was not initially requested. I will no longer deal with LivingSocial & will cancel my account. I am totally disgusted with the group.Hi There, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the redemption of your voucher... Read more

I purchased a voucher for a massage. On arrival at the premises the place had overwhelming smell. I was escorted to the very back of the building which was dark and dingy and workers were sitting on crates eating lunch. I was then shown to a room with paint peeling, holes on the walls and an old table with a thin mattress barely covered by two old towels and a thin sheet. The person giving the massage had to remove the sheet and replace it because it was used (I did not ask for this - I was too stunned to say anything), but they knew already. I... Read moret was supposed to be a relaxing day spa... I left. I decided to ask for a refund, the front desk person said I needed to contact Living Social for a refund. I contacted Living Social and after multiple emails and three weeks later no refund. First they offered a $25 credit (half what I paid) and refused a full refund. I then directed them to Australian Consumer Law which states if product not fit for service / purpose, I can receive a refund, regardless of their policy that says only credit (this is unlawful - they cannot only offer a credit). They then offered $49 credit - which is of no use to me because after this experience I do not want anything to do with that company ever again and a credit is of no use. Still waiting.Hi Stella, Please accept our sincerest apologies for the experience you've had with the redemption of your voucher... Read more

Paid for 2 coupons and only got 1. Numerous attempts at contact...all ignored by living social. Finally contacted my bank and provided them with screen shots. Money the living social tried to steal was refunded... and because I had made a { justified} complaiont about their disgusting practices and refusal to respond, they suspended my account. They didn't have the decency to tell me that of course.Hi Vista, Please allow us to apologies for the inconvenience caused here... Read more
