Have you ever successfully talked your way into a refund from Groupon for a partially redeemed voucher?
I bought a voucher on 7/7/13. Have had issues redeeming it throughout with rescheduling issues etc. (woman up and left for vacation of one month at one point, randomly), so it probably wasn't a big surprise at the end of April to hear they had closed doors to restructure and would contact us soon. Just got a notice that my June appointment is canceled as well.
I suspect that they have no money so forcing them to refund me isn't going to get far, although it may be worthwhile to put up a stink just for some personal satisfaction. It's $40 to file in small claims court. It's partially redeemed, so I suspect Groupon will claim they won't either, hence why I'm curious for tips if you did talk your way into it. It's probably been too long to get a refund from my credit card, although I'm contemplating a call to them to see. Any other ideas?
ETA: I'd be relying on calling them about their "Groupon Promise":
