I purchased 2 separate vouchers for chanterelle cooking school ( 2 vouchers for 2 people each)
So basically for four people... it turned out to be a scam... my friend and I paid $ 20 each for the train to get to Manhattan only to find out when we arrived at the " so called school " which was basically a residential apartment building the police were there attempting to arrest these people... apparently other residents of that building complained and they had to close the school I was extremely disturbed that living social would back this school that was scamming people and then they refused to give me cash back because... when I purchased these tickets living social automatically used other deal bucks to pay for this outing so they wanted to give me deal bucks... but I'm closing the account so the deal bucks will be useless... apparently I'm out $ 140.00 which is a lot of money for me... I contacted Living Social to alert them to this situation... one woman laughed the entire time and said she escalated the situation but in fact did nothing... I didn't hear anything for a week so I called back and spoke to three different women... the last woman was Katlyn and she would only return my money in deal bucks or ( phony money) even though my friend and I were scared to death when we got to this place... living social is still refusing to pay me back cash... and
My friends gave me cash, I need to pay them back, but living social will only give me deals bucks so I'm closing my account and would like to go to a news station or a newspaper to help prevent others from getting caught in this situation in the future... right now I'll settle for Yelp
