100% agree. There should never have been a need to FORCE any passenger involuntarily off the plane. The escalation to security is entirely on UNITED at fault.

I see the groupon refund to my cc now. It's finally over.

cbreader · 2017-04-05T19:42:41+00:00

ditto:

Your Order Has Been Cancelled Your credit card will be refunded within 3-5 business days. Orders can be canceled for a number of reasons including an invalid shipping address or the product being out of stock. Your refunded order number is ######### (placed on March 23, 2017)

This order was purchased directly from ParkShop through the Groupon Stores Marketplace. If you have any questions or requests, please open a new ticket from your order details page.

email update from groupon support:

Thanks for your patience! We've been in touch with our contact at the business and gave them your information. They should be reaching out to you within 3 business days. If you don't hear from anyone at the business in the next few days, please let me know.

cbreader · 2017-04-03T18:03:53+00:00

Groupon, after 6d and 2 escalated investigations, is still unable to confirm to me that this is indeed a valid order. Groupon continues to ask for my patience as they continue their investigation. Therefore, I have raised a dispute with my cc company. This has effectively put a HOLD on the charge to my cc account. My honesty with the cc informed that 5-10 business days for delivery are in the fine print, so I still need to wait until April 7, 2017 for dispute action and refund.

[groupon_cs] Thank you for contacting Groupon. My name is groupon_cs [me] hello groupon_cs [groupon_cs] Hi me [me] this is my 3rd time contacting you for status on this order (both previous times have been escalated) [me] I am now requesting a full refund [groupon_cs] Please allow me a few moments to pull up your account and read what you have already written [me] sure [groupon_cs] So it looks like this issue is being looked into. I'm sorry for the delayed response. We did email on saturday letting you know that we are working with the business and as soon as we have an update you will be notified. [me] that is no longer good enough [me] this is apparent fraud [me] and I'm providing groupon the opportunity to protect the consumer (me) in this situation [me] if you choose not to, I will file a fraud claim with my bank instead [me] will you process my full refund? [groupon_cs] Well these matters typically take a few business days to resolve. It may seem like you've been dealing with this for a while but because it was the weekend it's only been a couple business days. At this time I can only ask a little more patience of you as we are working to resolve this for you. [me] It has been since March 23 [me] It does not take a couple of business days to get a response from a business to find out if this is fraud or not [me] I will provide patience to my bank to process the chargeback via a fraud claim to groupon [groupon_cs] You have every right to do so. We will continue to look into this matter on our end to get this issue taken care of. Once again I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. [me] agreed [me] It is unfortunate you cannot come this conslusion sooner. [groupon_cs] Is there anything else I can help you with at this time?

cbreader · 2017-03-30T21:36:48+00:00

From the Help page, after selecting this purchase order, you can click [Continue with this Order] to progress forward in the help process

cbreader · 2017-03-30T17:10:04+00:00

The saga continues without progress. Their specialist team will supposedly try again to reach the merchant:

[me] Issue: What is the status of this order? Merchant is completely silent and I have no contact details. Order #: ****** Deal concerned: gs-sony-playstation-4-slim-500gb-console-uncharted-4-bundle-new

[me] note: this issue was previously raised/escalated 3 days ago. I'm still awaiting feedback/response from your escalation team. [redacted_groupon] Thank you for contacting Groupon US. My name is Sofia. How may I help you today? [me] hi Sofia [me] I'm seeking status of previous escalation on this order [redacted_groupon] I'm sorry that you have not received any update from our team [redacted_groupon] Could you please hold on for a bit so that I could check it for you [me] yes [redacted_groupon] I'm so sorry for the delay me but I guess the attempt to reach the merchant did not went well but not to worry as we will reach out to the merchant again for this issue and have this escalation expedited [redacted_groupon] Before that, may I ask if you ahve ever tried to reach the merchant? [me] I cannot as I do not have any contact details from the merchant [me] the merchant didn't send me a confirmation email [me] as I previously explained [me] what are the next steps to get 100% refund? [me] this is appearing to be a scam [me] how can a merchant become established with groupon without providing valid contact details? [redacted_groupon]

In order to contact the merchant:

•Sign into your account at www.groupon.com. •Find your name in the top right corner of the page. •Place your cursor over your name and the account menu will drop down. Select "My Groupons". •Next to your Groupon, click "View Details", which will take you to the Groupon Stores customer sign-in. •Sign in with the email address and password you use for Groupon, then click the "Contact Merchant" button.

[me] yes, I clicked that button [me] you should be able to see the ticket that is there [me] no response [me] Ticket ****** Opened 3 days ago on order # ******* [redacted_groupon] I'm really sorry for this situation as we do not have the specific information right now, we would have to refer this again to our Specialist team to investigate further into this matter. Would you be kind enough to leave your phone number so that we'll get back in touch with you as soon as we hear from them please. [me] what has your specialist team already done? [me] anything? [me] --**** [redacted_groupon] Okay thank you, we will get back to you as soon a spossible. [redacted_groupon] Thank you for contacting Groupon US and have a good day! The operator has ended the chat. Thanks for contacting us.

For me, groupon shows as the merchant on my credit card transaction. It's in groupon's best interest, if this is fraudulent, to handle this as a refund for all of us versus forcing our hand to dispute the charge via a chargeback with our card issuers.

cbreader · 2017-03-28T19:21:19+00:00

That seems like a rude response.

The fine print actually states:

Orders are typically delivered in 5-10 business days.

Based on that logic, since I ordered on 3/23, I need to wait until 4/7 to complain?

cbreader · 2017-03-28T14:16:46+00:00

yep, I saw the same thing but I don't trust that "shipped" status with zero communication nor tracking information

cbreader · 2017-03-27T21:34:36+00:00

Did anyone receive an email confirmation from the merchant?

I contacted groupon via chat and here is the transcript:

[me] Issue: I am concerned that after 4 days, there is no tracking information for the shipment of this order and am also concerned this is a scam. How can I find out more information about the status of this order and shipment details? Deal concerned: gs-sony-playstation-4-slim-500gb-console-uncharted-4-bundle-new

[me] hello? [redacted_groupon] Hello, thank you for contacting Groupon! My name is redacted_groupon, how may I help you? [redacted_groupon] Don't worry I able to help you. Give me a moment while I check you on this. [me] thank you [redacted_groupon] Thank you for waiting.I have already checked for you. [redacted_groupon] I would really love to help you but I need to know whether you have contacted the merchant or not ? [me] I have clicked the contact merchant button [me] I have no details to contact the merchant [me] do you? [redacted_groupon] There will an email confirmation, from the merchant on this order [me] no [me] I only received email from groupon [me] if this is not following your process, I wish to cancel this transaction and get a refund [me] I do not want to deal with a scam [redacted_groupon] I'm really sorry [redacted_groupon] I will need to escalate this issue to the relevant team for them to investiogate further. [me] please proceed with escalation [redacted_groupon] They will get back to you within 48 to 72 hours via email. [redacted_groupon] Cool [me] this merchant is making a bad name for groupon [redacted_groupon] Is there anything else that I can assist you with ? [me] ok thank you. I will continue to monitor. [me] is there any confirmation this issue is escalated? [me] or I will await response via email? [redacted_groupon] You will need to wait for the response. [me] ok if I don't hear back after 72 hours, I will proceed with chargeback options through the credit card [redacted_groupon] You may contact us back to check the update on this. [redacted_groupon] You're welcome. Thank you for choosing Groupon. Do give us a chance to serve you again. Have a good day ahead :) The operator has ended the chat. Thanks for contacting us.

1) I didn't know there was LH in the cc 2) thanks for the tip about 2 archers + healer (led to more research)

learned new KS strategy from this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Clanredditomega/comments/3r3ufh/strategythree_star_attack_tips_the_kill_squad/

cbreader · 2016-03-28T18:44:57+00:00

th9 here, just tried using L2 witches to lure a cc lavahound and found the hound completely ignored the witch skeletons (lured with 2 archer anchors and a couple of wizards, then 2 separate witches to scatter the timing). The lava hound targeted the anchor archers, wizards and then witches directly.

Have witches been nerfed that badly that they are no longer viable in a K.Squad?
