Stacksocial

I bought a deal that went quite bad. I asked for a refund and they try redirects so they don't have to give me my $50 back. They want to resolve it with the merchant when I have already told them I've lost all confidence with them. They don't listen.
To me the company feels like a souless money sucking machine that refuses to spit it back out.
They don't seem to hear the human behind the text. They make out to "empathize" with you. I get a canned response to my email. Very insulting.
I will avoid doing any business with them again. It looks like I'll be taking this up with consumer affairs.

I purchased a lifetime Microsoft Office on Stack Social website but the product key they provided doesn't work and they've stopped responding to my emails when I requested for a replacement or refund. Totally unacceptable, it's a real scam!

After using regular headphones for long time i felt like changing to wireless earbuds. So i purchased Cool Pods Wireless Earbuds from stack social for amazing price. The received pods was a genuine quality.

My second purchase was a face mask with 5 filters. It took a very long time to get the item from the Stack Social vendor. When it arrived today (5/15), I opened it up and tried to put on. DOESN'T STAY ON & APPARENTLY since it was such a deal (over $20), it is NOT REFUNDABLE.

BUYER BEWARE!

The order process was very confusing - it takes 2 separate steps.

I think everyone should use their service and see for themselves. I quite liked them, therefore can recommend for you

I chose the software, with an advertised price of $32.97, which somehow increased to $42.55, after tax and Handling.
Tax: $6.59
Handling: $2.99
Order Total: $42.55
There was no previous mention of any additional of these costs, prior to being asked to pay.

Other reviews:
'I wish that I had seen some of the online reviews.
StackSocial is a "legit" site, but the products they sell are garbage.'

Thought the pop up coupon was for $10. Turned out to be 10% (3.89)

Stacksocial sent a key that had already been used when I purchased a lifetime license for MS Office Pro from their site. Still trying to get them to respond. They are not being very responsive. Feels like a total scam.

I have had several negative experiences buying from this supplier. For the sake of your mental health, you should not shop here, especially if you are an EU citizen.
EDIT: By contacting the Product owner, the issue was partly resolved. Rating increased to 2 because the shop cooperated with the product owner.

I recently ordered the PhiGolf golf simulator. I find it to be working fine after one day but it is clearly a used piece of merch. No where in the description does it say used or refurbished. For just $45 more dollars I could have bought a brand new one on Amazon. Just thought this was a sale. Again it seems to be working fine just wish I would have know it was used.

Deserves more than 5 stars
I have been buying from them since 2015 until now, I have not had a problem with them. The support is excellent, it provides honest and reliable assistance and support
I don't like compliments. The store is excellent and is considered one of the best stores around the world. I wish them success.

BlackFriday PromoCode Fail Paid Full PRICE. StackSocial won't refund back to Visa payment
I placed the order and enter the promotion code listed but It didn't work and when click apply then all of sudden it ORDERED for me automatically and pay FULL Price! Yes it didn't ask me payment methods page at all! Took Visa payment that was recorded on a previous payment.

Item: "The complete DevOps certificates courses & practice test bundle" Original $39 dollar after black Friday week discount code is $12. They charged $39 to my Visa and would not refund me. They said they can give me $39 credits back. HOWEVER, store credit can not use Black Friday code AT THE SAME TIME.
So I cost me $39/each credits to pay the same course instead of $12/each!

I am here to tell you YOU GUYS ARE BEING warned. Black Friday WEEK Discount CODE will not work and it will automatically take your PREVIOUS VISA PAYMENT information and charge to the same VISA card.

Furthermore. THey WON"T call you back nor they have a phone number to call. StackCommerce Support is worst. Takes two days to reply anything
And their email called themself "Support Heroes"?

I sent the support ticket 1 minute right away I saw they charged my Visa. It took them days to reply to me back. Then I provided Screen Capture to proof and they wait 2 days to email me back. This is ongoing for 1 week+ already. I am not get their HELP!

StackCommerce owns both StackSocial & TMZ. Bought Microsoft OFFICE pro from TMZ two years ago & key code was used & never worked. Bought MICROSOFT office pro 2021 recently from StackSocial & same issue AGAIN. Found out StackSocial & TMZ under StackCommerce parent company.
Found out from Microsoft that there is no RETAIL sales for Microsoft Pro - only corporate bundles. StackSocial is selling key codes from bundles that are already assigned to the bundle. It is no glitch that when you enter the key code StackSocial (or TMZ) provides via an email link that redirects you back to StackSocial's website for the big reveal & then another link to try to activate a non valid key code, you see a message that the key code is USED.
You cannot call StackSocial CSRs, you can only fill out a form on StackSocial's website "contact us" then you have no proof of contact & you never hear back. StackSocial's refund policy states that once you view the bogus key code, NO REFUNDS. Catch 22. DO NOT BUY.
Disputed charge with CC company & StackSocial quick to provide proof of purchase but I am then required to provide proof that purchase of software key code doesn't work.
Don't fall for promise of another working key code because it will just be more headaches for you & these key codes will never work. Even if software somehow magically downloads, it will not function later or will be incomplete - think Rosetta Stone language software.

Their service and products as a whole aren't absolutely fraudulent but their business is horrendous. I bought courses and softwares with no problem but beware of the products they're touting for. I only write reviews here for courses and apps, not physical products.
A few of their apps are real bargains. You can hardly find the same elsewhere. However, most of their apps and all of their courses are awful. Before buying them, make sure to read reviews online. If those apps have high ratings (such as NordVPN, CyberGhost, etc.), it will worth your money buying them, otherwise, stay away from them no matter how cheap there are!
Their customer support is horrible, often with irrelevant or ambiguous replies.

Total complete rip-off artists... Don't stand behind their products, and never ever listen to you, and never ever give refunds... Even if it's a faulty product... You are stuck, and out of your money...

The site hides terms behind multiple tabs, split to deceive you. Customer Support is more than happy to keep up the bait and switch offered by their company. Save yourself disappointment or time in needing to scour their entire page, with multiple links hidden between tabs to uncover that they are trying to just steal your money.

Here's my experience I paid $349 for a computer that was supposed to have 32 GB of RAM when I turned it on it only had 8 GB of RAM basically they told me it's my tough luck too bad we're not refunding partially your money go to heck we don't care about your business that's what they told me I even tried to contact the CEO left email he never contacted me back all I wanted was $100 of my money refunded which I thought was fair considering this was supposed to have 32 GB of RAM and I only had eight they are nothing but false advertisement and fraud do not do business with

It was hard to get the site to accept my credit card information, but it worked in the end.

I decided to use Stacksocial to buy a 3 month access for Adobe Creative cloud. However, when I went to redeem the codes - the very same day - they were not valid. Use caution when buying from this site!

Selling rubbish so called 'lifetime VPN subscriptions' that are worse than most of the free ones, download speeds are absolute dreadful averaging between 0.2 GB to 0.9 GB, when emailed for refund because of the dire speeds, they don't want to know or help just " fob you off", ignore your emails than they close your account.
R. e Purchased a good annual subscription VPN Nord averaging fast 39 -45 GB

*UPDATE*
After lots of weeks complaining, this issue was resolved and I got refunded. I would still have expected this to be resolved sooner

I had bought digital services/subscriptions in the past and never needed to use the support of stacksocial. This time I bought scopio subscription and had problems with redeeming the subscription. Scopio never even replied to me about the issue (In short, I couldn't login into my account). I asked for a refund from stacksocial ( a credit refund to use my money somewhere else) but they kept sending me emails back and forth to just wait as we are working on this. Up till this day, they didn't say anything about a refund... Disgraceful! So I am left without a refund and without a service... This has been going on for over a month. I WILL NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN... AND I WILL NOT CONSIDER OTHER BUSINESSES WHO PUT THEIR SERVICES ON THEIR WEBSITE.

False, deceptive and misleading advertising.

Bought lifetime subscription for VPN software BUT my access suddenly expired in November after 5 years.

Contacted Stacksocial multiple times and all I get is a "looking into it" reply while I go without a VPN.

The VPN provider (not their fault) kindly extended my account for a few weeks so they can investigate and I can pursue my complaint against Stocksocial.

According to the VPN provider, I am not the only subscriber who was misled (conned) so how about a class action suit? Is anyone interested?

NOTE: I will file a complaint with the FTC but as I understand all they do is send a "cease and desist" warning letter.
