    On 4/19/24 I purchased a voucher in the amount of $28.95 for *******************. On 5/17/24 I purchased a voucher for *********** Grille. Both were purchased through the online company Sweet Deals. On May 10, 2024 I reached out to their online support department to let them know I still hadn't received my vouchers in the mail (in the screen shots you will see they both say they will be shipped via mail). A rep responded within a day or two stating that "they were emailed" and to check my Spam folder. I did and there was no voucher, nor was there supposed to be since it clearly stated at time of purchase & confirmation they would be sent via mail.I had the same issue on 5/17/24 when I purchased a $28.95 voucher for *********** Grille. No voucher via email or mail & no response from customer service despite outreach attempts on 5/24/24 & 6/10/24; therefore, there has been no part on the company to resolve the issue since they have only responded one time and the information they provided was incorrect.I would like a timely refund or replacement for these items as it's not been close to 3 months that I've paid for 2 items that I have not received.

    If possible, can we keep the claim open until the replacement certificates are received? I did receive a response from them finally and sent them all info requested for replacement. Thank you.

    Ky3 (local *** affiliate Springfield MO) offers a Deal of the Day, usually for local businesses/products, etc. A new offer every day is advertised on air and social media and email. On 5/23/2024 I purchased an offer: Shepherd of the Hills Shepherd of the ******************** 2 for 1 admission to Shepherd of the ******************** ($50 value!). I purchased 4 2 for 1 admission tickets for $100 plus a handling or postage fee of $10. I received 4 1 admission, which is no deal, I should have received 8 tickets. My disappointment lies in only being able to correspond by Email, upon my initial email, I was told it could take 10 business days to respond. They did respond initially on 5/28 and after several back and forth messages acknowledged 6/8 they are aware there was an issue. They have not refunded or filled my order. I did reach out to my credit card company and they are also reviewing. Mistakes happen and I do understand, the reason for my complaint is the customer service or fixing the issue does not seem like a priority. The KY3 Deal of the Day is every day so this company is advertising through tv, social media and email with offers from local businesses and yet they have limited accessibility to resolve a customer issue. This is concerning to me and not a good business practice. I would like the merchandise I paid for or a refund. I have all the Email correspondence available if needed.************************************************** ********************************************* ************************

    Transaction took place on June 19th 2023. I called my credit card company *********** when I noticed a cash advance fee appeared along with the $68 charge on my credit card statement. I called my credit card company and they informed me that the vendor treated this transaction as a wire transfer resulting in me being charged a $10 cash advance fee in addition to the $68 I paid for the product. The company did not inform me prior to purchasing the product that this would be considered a cash wire transfer transaction. I demand that this company pay me back for this $10 fee as they did misrepresented the transaction as a credit card transaction when in fact it was a money wire transfer. Shame on this company for their shady and deceptive business practices.

    Hi *****,

    We deeply regret the charge applied to your account labeled as a "cash advance fee." 
    This occurrence was an unexpected issue stemming from our banking institution, that was totally beyond our control.
     
    Rest assured, the amount in question will be refunded to your account within the upcoming 10 business days. 
    Should you require additional support, please do not hesitate to contact us at halfoffhelp.com

    We have requested the tracking info from our vendor for the second order, which we will provide direct to your email once received.

    Please note, we make every effort to process and ship orders within 7 business days.

    However, since your order is shipped pre-paid, the service level and carrier are determined to be the most economical by our vendor.

    The actual delivery time once shipped is based on the carrier's service standard.

    We apologize for any inconvenience.

    On 5/3 this company listed a deal to get 1/2 off admission to a local animal park. I attempted to get this deal but when I tried to process the payment it said I was blocked, so I tried a different browser on my phone and was blocked again. I then get on my computer and attempt to purchase on that thinking that using my phone was the issue. It wasnt. I then noticed a few days later that I had 4 charges of $47.90 each. They were processing at that point - I figured that would fall off since the transaction did not go through. I was wrong and the payments have been posted for a month now. I did reach out to the company and after 10 days they told me to wait as they were probably still processing and not posted but that they saw no transactions on my account. I waited a few more days and responded to them letting them know that the charges were still in fact on my account and I provided them when additional information they requested. I have yet to hear back from the company and it has been almost 2 weeks.
