Long time Genbook user, since 2009, Great service. Booksy acquire Genbook it's been a nightmare. Customer Service seems nice enough that's all they are is Customer Service. They can only do as they're told.
I've had multiple phone calls. Multiple chats multiple emails still not fixed. This is a game changer for any one running a business. Mess with someone financially whether intentional or not software And credit card processor is substandard.
Payouts are missing. Complete nightmare complete nightmare accounting!
Such a scam. I have booked several appointments and clicked to have my Lifebooker rewards used for the services and that message never gets to the spa/salon so I end up paying full price versus saving $10. I booked a blowout last week for $40 and when I got to the salon, their regular price was actually $25. Because I booked with Lifebooker, I was charged the $40 versus the amount I would have paid by just working with the salon directly. What a joke site.
Horrible customer service. My facial appointment via lifebooker was cancelled 20 hrs prior and the merchant says she asked lifebooker t inform me. This was never done. I wrote a complaint to lifebooker regarding this and even sent a reminder for a response. It has been 3 weeks now and I have not heard from them at all!
Argh! Unsubscribing from this one immediately.
Folks, do not give up on trying to get a credit for services you do not use even if your loot or certificate has expired. Under the CARD act lifebooker must issue a credit for services being rendered. (Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act) This is why Groupon had to change their policies a few years back. Do your research and know your rights.
Lifebooker is nothing but a scam. They stole my money, after I canceled my massage, and after the Salon had told me I would not be charged. I would very much recommend against this website for booking appointments. Go to GroupOn or BloomSpot instead. They are much more reliable companies, plus they are actually registered with the BBB.
I bought a coupon from lifebooker for a semi-private meeting with a matchmaker. ($100.00) The matchmaker lost my application and left me out of the meting. Lifebooker would not give me a refund or credit. ONLY use lifebooker if you LIKE throwing your money away and screwed royally!
Went to FIFI salon for a classic mani and pedi my experience was great. The place was very clean and cozy! Josephine was simply great. Dint rush me at all. She did a great job. The owner was pretty warm and courteous too. Will definitely go back!
The merchant, in my back accesses my account with BOOKSY, change the reservation, the price agreed and deleted my own reservation of the day before. As a matter of fact, at the cash, I click the link I receive yesterday to confirm my reservation and price but the result was deleted and updated it by the merchant, without my consent.
How the merchant can have access to my personal informationBOOKSY account without my password?
Booksy is the worst...the website is poorly run and managed...would rate a negative if possible...hope barbers and stylist have an alternate site they can use because Booksy is horrible...
I CAN'T believe people take out their frustration of salons or massage/nail parlors on Lifebooker! The saying "Don't shoot the messenger"? Well, in case you haven't noticed... It is NOT the website's fault if a business it's not doing their job. So, in this case. PLEASE, for all the hard work that gets fueled into an operation like LifeBooker, DO NOT shoot the middleman. Thank you.
I haven't used Lifehooker and yet I get daily emails from these scumbags and unsubscribed 4 times and still get their junkmail. I've resorted to nasty emails which got an apology with a promise to rectify the situation and am still getting their junkmail flooding up my inbox. I wish someone like Anonymous would flood their servers and crash their service once and for all. Whatever happened to making an honest living?
Whatever happened to integrity?
After years of use my beloved Genbook calendar system was bought out by a marketing system Booksy. My longtime clients downloaded the Booksy app at my request but then Booksy failed to provide ease of use. The system would continuously buffer and never get to the point of granting a confirmation code. One client videotaped her attempt to book through Booksy and SIX minutes into the process it still hadn't gotten her credit card information. What NEW client would have stuck with it after twenty seconds of buffering much less six minutes? Then, customers showed me screenshots of a message they received "this business is no longer available" when ALL of my appointments were available. This led them to believe I had closed. That was the day I canceled Booksy. The cancellation process is a nightmare. I'm still not out of their business DESTROYING clutches.
I used to be with Genbook for 12 years then one day out of the blue they transfered all my data to Booksy. They removed all the titles from my reviews which my customers have written that way now Booksy picked a treatment for each review a lot all them are incorrect! I have clients that were booked for Endermologie and Booksy software says they were booked for botox! I believe I'm entitled to my original reviews from genbook not this ones that have been altered by a robot. This software is not for Day Spas is for Barbers...
Crappy booker can't eb=ven use due to glitch won't let users get code via other method but phone which, doesn't get sent!
The site processes two promo codes, so when you check out and submit payment you think it's one price. When you receive the confirmation and email, it charges you for the amount of only one promo code working. I call customer service and tell them the issue, and they do NOTHING about it. Like a normal respectable company, they should HONOR what the site does. They have HORRENDOUS customer service and suck.
I used to be an avid client of Lifebooker until earlier this year, when I purchased two Lifebooker vouchers for Soca Motion classes and after calling and writing the merchant repeatedly to schedule the classes and receiving no response, I contacted Lifebooker for a refund and was told, basically, that it was not Lifebooker's problem.
I filed a report with the Better Business Bureau, and I intended to blog and write on review sites about Lifebooker's policy of "screw you—you buy from us and you're on your own", but I decided to just take the $14 loss and never patron the site again.
WORST SITE, CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND TECHNOLOGY EVER! I have been trying to access my account for 3 days now and have contacted their customer service team. They told me that three shouldn't be any problems now, which was a lie because they never fixed the problem! I want a refund but the customer service team wont help. DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM ITS A SCAM.
LifeBooker SUCKS! They are f*$%ing SHADY LIARS. Like SO MANY OTHERS. I bought a LifeBooker coupon for a business that DOESN'T EXIST! I contacted LifeBooker, they said no refunds, only credit. Then the freaking credit expired! So I'm just out that money. Scumbags!
I literally could not get ANYONE on the phone to help when my account was migrated from Genbook. They completely... and I mean COMPLETELY... shut down their phone support. The absolute only option for support was their chat feature, and most of the time I had to wait days for a response, and one time I literally waited WEEKS for a response. There was no option to start a new chat conversation... I was just stuck with no answers, when trying to run my business.
Overall, horrible. I'm guessing their software was ok... I was told at one point that someone from their support team would call me to go over the software features, but it's been almost 6 months and that hasn't happened. I'm just astounded that a company, who is there to help people like me run a business, which is my livelihood, would completely drop the ball and LITERALLY SHUT DOWN THEIR PHONE SUPPORT.
I did have a positive experience initially. I booked a few haircuts at a discount with an excellent hairstylist. Unfortunately, after a few months, the price of the haircuts went up significantly and I couldn't afford to get cuts from this stylist any more.
Let's move on to my most recent, horrible experience with Lifebooker. I purchased a deal for 2 facial treatments. The company began racking up terrible reviews after offering the deal and it made me hesitant to go there considering they would be stimulating my face with electrical currents. I asked for a refund, or in the least, a credit, because I didn't feel comfortable going there. The company had also marked my voucher as redeemed and I had only realized this after I got a email reminding me to use my voucher. That seemed pretty shady. Lifebooker refused to even give me a credit for the deal which was 85 dollars! This is not just chump change for me. I was very disappointed and told the rep for Lifebooker that I would never use their services again. Research the company very carefully before you buy a deal because you won't see your money again if the deal goes sour.
Answer: You don't have to return it. You just choose not to buy it. They never charge you for loot until you click on "Buy loot".
