The amount the consumer paid for the Groupon Voucher does not expire until the voucher is used or is refunded. It is unclear how Groupon determines which refund methodology to utilize for a refund claim. Last year, a group of consumers filed a class action lawsuit against Groupon alleging that Groupon violated numerous state and federal laws.

The consumers alleged that Groupon illegally used expiration dates and other restrictions on Groupon Vouchers, engaged in sales or advertising practices that violated various consumer laws and failed to make adequate required disclosures concerning the promotional deals offered to consumers. As part of this settlement, Groupon merchants were released from any liability related to the class action allegations. If you purchased or received a Groupon Voucher that required the voucher to be redeemed in the United States between November 1, and December 1, , you are a member of the class.

Groupon plans to send an email about the settlement to its 34 million active subscribers relatively soon. In order to participate in the settlement, you will have to submit a Proof of Claim Form. The Proof of Claim Form will be available once the Court approves the settlement. The deadline to submit your Proof of Claim Form will likely be set by the Court when it approves the settlement.

However, you should anticipate the deadline to be sometime in July If your claim meets the criteria outlined in that Proof of Claim Form, you will receive a Settlement Voucher. The Settlement Voucher is valid for days from its issue date. By Cynthia Measom. By Morgan Quinn. Sign up for our daily newsletter for the latest financial news and trending topics.
