Problems with purchasing from groupon.com. Help please.

bearandbuzz · 17 Sep 17, 07:42 PM

I've signed up to groupon.com in case there are any local Orlando deals coming up. When I go into pay it doesn't let me complete the transaction, I've tried using PayPal, Apple Pay and credit card.
Is there something's no I'm doing wrong, or is it because I'm in the UK and it's being recognised?
You help would be appreciated.
Regards

I bought the cicis pizza groupon yesterday. I changed my address to state of Florida and used the zip code 34746. My voucher was emailed ed straightaway. The voucher was emailed so the correct address wasn't needed. I used my clarity card so no foreign transaction fees were charged.

Thanks, I've just tried that, but it's still not working

. I've been emailed a link that entitles me to get a $10 Starbucks gift card for $5, it lets me purchase it but almost immediately after it processes the payment I get an email message saying there was a problem with payment and to try an alternative payment method.
It does say in the small print that it's us residents only, but it's still not working with a Floridian address so I guess I'll have to leave it.
It's a shame as I could almost taste my free Starbucks drink

i normally put the first line of my UK address and then the zip code for where i stay in Florida. Think your card has to match your billing address.
It always works for me doing it this way

I use my home address (where card is registered) but when asked for zip code I put the one of where we are staying, I have just purchased 3 groupons for my next trip.

I think people have had problems with the Starbucks one before.
