    Cash reward 5.5% but faster than getting these from Groupon
    Cash reward allows us to buy directly from https://everydaygiftcards.com.au/ and takes hours
    Groupon you need to wait 2-4 business days

        By definition, the "cheapest ever" claim is compared with past prices. Find a cheaper price in the past - claim busted.

        Many here received our cards in this $30 off $100 Wish eGift card Scoopon deal at Christmas.
        I think that 30% discount was the "cheapest ever" ;-)

          +6

          You mean 5.5% is now the best in-market discount for these eGift cards - correct at the time & not the overblown claim here.

          At the moment this is the cheapest available deal on these cards, but not "cheapest ever". That's all that really counts - unless you're a time traveller.

        • frazel on 15/06/2016 - 17:27

          @frazel:
          Thanks frazel, for the clarification. But strange, I couldn't find that comment by TA in that deal. I searched it 3 times, including deal revisions. You provided no link. Hard to interpret your excerpt out of context.

          Given the context of that deal, that would have referred solely to "Biggest ever discount on gift cards!!" at CashRewards - which was the deal, not cheapest ever in all deals (as claimed in the description of this deal - now wisely removed).

    Do these gift cards ever expire?

  • CoronavirusVaccine on 15/06/2016 - 07:46

    In the past buying from Groupon incurs overseas transaction charge which can shave off 1~3% of the savings. Sometimes it's better off to just buy from Everyday Gift Card (5% combine with Entertainment Book or Cashrewards) and pay with an American Express with possibly 1% approx worth of QFF points.

    • Bargain Master on 15/06/2016 - 07:49

      Huh?

      • CoronavirusVaccine on 15/06/2016 - 07:58
        +2

        Two years ago bought gift card from Groupon and my credit card company charged me 2% foreign transaction charge. The transaction was in AUD however originated from Switzerland. So I am saying this eats away a big part of the supposed savings. Wanting people to be aware of this potential risk - not sure why being negged.

        • easternculture on 15/06/2016 - 07:59

          doesn't happen anymore.

        • strawberrybug on 15/06/2016 - 08:26

          this has happened to me as well with groupon, a while ago though. Below comments make sense in terms of the resolution.

        • mastablasta on 15/06/2016 - 09:07

          @easternculture:
          Is this correct? Groupon is still listed here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/australian_sites_that_char…

        • easternculture on 15/06/2016 - 09:14

          @mastablasta:

          I bought from them a few voucher 2 months ago via comm bank credit card and was not charged a fee. I'll upload a screen shot when I'm back from work

        • wfdTamar on 15/06/2016 - 10:34

          Yes same experience. Then there was the time they offered a super discount only to cancel it and eventually refund, but it still had the international fee. Terrible way to get these cards. Stick with Cashrewards or Entertainment Book.

        • mastablasta on 15/06/2016 - 11:27

          @easternculture:
          Did you used to get charged the fee with the same card, but now you don't?

          Or alternatively, does the card charge the fee when a purchase is made in AUD yet the merchant is overseas? If they don't, then that would explain why you don't get charged a fee.

          As an example, Citibank Signature cards now impose an international transaction fee when the purchase is in AUD, yet the merchant is overseas.

          As an addendum, this could still be an issue because Groupon still have the topic in their FAQ: https://www.groupon.com.au/faq#general_questions_and_feedbac…

        • zzyss on 15/06/2016 - 12:57

          @mastablasta:

          Edited it. Guess they've fixed the problem, based on the reports here.

    • easternculture on 15/06/2016 - 07:59

      afaik, those who had been charged a overseas transaction charge were refunded with a simple inquiry email . Since then, its been fixed and doesnt happen anymore

      • CoronavirusVaccine on 15/06/2016 - 08:23

        Could you clarify if the inquiry email is to Groupon or to the credit card company?

        Thanks for this, didn't know about it, just thought it's one of the gimmicky charges Groupon managed to slap on and must be buried in the T&Cs.

      • INFIDEL on 15/06/2016 - 08:27
        +3

        Problem was, we had to notice the charge in our credit card statement & ask Groupon to refund it. A very dubious practice - to save Groupon local banking fees but moved their costs onto the buyer.

        Apparently some did not notice the additional charge in their bank statements. Groupon had the fact that this would be an overseas transaction well & truly hidden in their long t&c.

        I lodged a complaint as businesses with Australian websites should charge through Australian institutions, not overseas - incurring an unexpected foreign transaction charge for the buyer. And that buyers were not made aware of this at the time of purchase.

        Groupon told me I should have known about the fee as it was clearly stated in their t&c (near the end from memory) I had agree to!!

        I was not a happy bunny, and took up the matter with the ACCC. You never regain respect for a business when it is necessary to do so much to correct a problem they were aware of.

        ACCC became involved after many complaints about this practice with a number of .au websites. Groupon said they worked with the ACCC to resolve the matter. But Groupon did not seem to act for their consumers until pushed into it.

    • evolution-flip on 15/06/2016 - 09:42

    For those with Amex Platinum Edge, the Cashrewards deal would've been better because I'd definitely value the extra points buying directly from Everyday Gift Cards for 3ppd at more than the 0.5% extra discount.

        • zzyss on 15/06/2016 - 09:06

          @easternculture:

          Usual annual fee is $199, which is still less than the cost of the flight that you receive each year.

        • kwchaz on 15/06/2016 - 09:13

          @easternculture:
          Yeah usual $199, I have an industry card which nets me the discount, and there are a few industry groups that have access to said $149 rate (CPA, ADA, AMA, LIV, etc.).

        • donkcat on 15/06/2016 - 09:16

          @easternculture:
          It's $195 a year.
          If you are like me and cant benefit from the flight every year then you can on sell your flight and actually make a profit as the flight offers return flights to the east coast from Perth.
          If you were going to apply I can offer you a referral link so you will receive 15k points instead of 10k.

        • murkywater on 15/06/2016 - 13:46

          @raven2000:

          Classifieds forum on here, GumTree, other community forums. You can easily get $300 if you wait - there's always someone wanting to fly from PER to BNE willing to pay that price (very often the actual ticket would cost them $800).
