Group buying sites are slowly gaining popularity these days. However, there are those that make you think if it is "for real" or not. Some were already fooled and are still clueless if they'll get their money back or not. I was hesitant too at first if I should consider buying a voucher from these group buying sites. Until a friend suggested this site called Metrodeal where she previously bought a lot of vouchers already. I browsed their website and found something to buy for our *planned trip.*
Navigating through the site is quite easy and once you find the promo you want, you just have to point your cursor to your promo-of-choice and click the "view deal now" button.
Doing so would bring you to the specific page of the promo wherein you could read the details about it. It is important to ALWAYS read the fine print of the promo so it wouldn't end up being forfeited without you knowing. You will also see in this page the highlights of the promo. See sample below:
Also in that page is the time left for you to buy and the BUY NOW button. Once you click the buy now button, you will be asked to log in (or create an account if you don't have one yet) then you'll fill out the information being asked such as your name and Mode of Payment. You are required to have an account there because that is where your voucher/s will be stored. You may use Paypal, Gcash, LBC or thru bank deposit. When I purchased my voucher, I used Paypal which is more convenient (IMO) because using this method would make your voucher readily available for printing once you hit the Submit button. See picture below:
For the one above, I chose LBC as mode of payment. The one below was through Paypal. When I inquired at LBC branch, they told me that it would take two days before my voucher becomes available for printing.
On the day that we used the voucher, we just had it printed in a nearby mall and just presented it to Metrodeal's booth (yes, they have their own booth) inside Manila Ocean Park. How convenient! Right? :)
So, if you are still having doubts about this site, well, you might want to think over again. But of course, you still have to be wise in purchasing and when you think that something is "too-good-to-be-true," contact the merchant first before hitting the Buy Now button! :)
Stay tuned for my next post about our adventure at Manila Ocean Park! :)
Hi we're planning on a trip at manila ocean park using metrodeal.. we just need to present the printed voucher in the metrodeal booth to get our real voucher? and is there any addition like ids and such? :)
ReplyDeleteHi! Bring valid IDs too just to be safe. :) Once you present your printed voucher, they'll give you the tickets for each attraction included in your voucher. Enjoy! :)
DeleteHi! I checked on the fineprint of the ocean park deal i wanna buy but it indicated that the printed voucher is not valid on the entrance gate of the attraction.. how about that? Thank you!
DeleteHi! Sorry for the late reply. Yes, the printed voucher itself is not valid at the entrance of each attraction. You have to EXCHANGE the vouchers for TICKETS in metrodeal's booth inside the park. :) Hope this helps. :) Enjoy!
DeleteHi, i found your post very helpful thanks for this. I am planning a trip to Manila Ocean Park this coming March and a bit interested to purchase a voucher in MetroDeal. I was interested with this deal "Ocean's Ultimate Adventure: 8-in-1 Attractions with Eat-All-You-Can Lunch Buffet at Manila Ocean Park for P899" however its stated their that the vouchers validity is until Feb 2017. I just got confused because when i browse Manila Ocean Park's website i only see packages/promo valid until feb 29, 2016. So, i'm wondering if they will honor the voucher in metrodeal. Hope you could advise Thanks. - Ro
DeleteHi Ms. Rose. I'm glad you found this blog helpful! :) About your concern, I checked Metrodeal's site and I think the voucher is really valid until Feb 2017. Oceanpark's website offers other promos with validities of their own. If you're still in doubt, it would be best to send an email to Metrodeal for clarification. :)
DeleteMay i ask if how can i get my voucher??it will be sent to my gmail account ??or where?
DeleteHi po. Itatanong ko lang po kung mapapalitan padin yung voucher ko kahit mali po yung first name na nakalagay? Tama naman po yung last name. Hindi ko po kasi agad nacheck eh. Thank you
ReplyDeleteHello. Sorry for late reply. Mas okay siguro iemail mo ang metrodeal so they can make necessary adjustments. Baka kasi di tanggapin sa mismong booth nila sa Oceanpark. :)
DeleteHi ms. Nads. I had the same error. What happened sa case niyo?
DeleteHi, can i still use my voucher even though the first name is indicated there is incorrect? I printed it out already but my last name is correct. Will they still exchange it when i present my valid id? I need your help po :( thank you so much :)
ReplyDeleteHi ms torres. Im planning po sana na mag avail s metrodeal ng sa splash island. Panu po ba un db ang mode of payment through lbc or mga banks. E panu ko po makukuha un ticket ? Sa mismong splash island na po ba yun makukuha? Tulad ng sa ocean park n may booth cla dun? Salamat po in advance.
ReplyDeleteHello! Ikaw po ang magpiprint ng voucher na makikita sa account mo sa metrodeal. Magiging available lang sya for printing after mo magbayad sa LBC/bank. :) Then yung voucher napo ang parang ticket na pepresent mo sa Splash Island. Hope this helps. :)
DeleteAvail na ba agad ung voucher pag nagbayad? Thank you :) Or pwede ba na ipakita nlng ung receipt na nagbayad na khit wala pa voucher? ksi bukas kme magbabayad gsto namin bkas na din ppnta. May nakuha kme sa metrodeal promo. About yexel. :)
ReplyDeleteHi! Bibili po kase ako ng 2tix para sa star city. Halimbawa po, binayaran ko na ngayon, pwede na po ba siyang gamitin tmrw? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHello there pno po process ng payment ? Through LBC po . thanks
ReplyDeleteHi! Punta ka lang LBC and sabihin na magbabayad ka sa Dragonpay. Alam na nila yun. :) Just fill out the necessary form. Don' t forget to bring the details Metrodeal sent you. :)
DeleteHello. If I purchase a deal on the same day and pay for it through Dragonpay, BPI over-the-counter, will I be able to redeem it on that same day?
ReplyDeleteHi! What happened po? Na-redeem nyo the same day na nagbayad kayo? Balak din kasi namin bukas magbayad thru robinsons otc tapos bukas din namin balak puntahan :(
DeleteHi. I've wanted to try metrodeal for a discount they have on buffets, but I'm still confused. If I click the Buy Now option, what exactly am I paying for? The discounted price of what I want to avail? If so, do I still have to pay the restaurant I'll be presenting the voucher to?
ReplyDeleteHello, umorder po ako ng ticket and paid in my credit card, pano ko po maavail yung voucher, wala po sya sa myorder sa metrodeal app. And i already checked my email.Pano ko po sya makikita?

ReplyDeleteHello po kung oorder po ako ng 2 vouchers sa metro deal. makukuha ko po ung ticket by presenting my valid ID dba po? kelangan dn po ba ng kasama ko mag present ng VALID ID ? kase wala po syang valid ID. pero ako nmn po oorder.
