Yesterday, I visited Shopee one of the leading
online shop here in the Philippines.
Shopee and Lazada both offer shipping voucher discounts.
So I browse some Shipping vouchers.
and I found one, It says ""Free shipping, Zero minimum spend"
So I click and use it.
And I browse some sneaker shoes.
So I found a shoe that I really like.
While on checkout I click the "Choose voucher"
so I click that and found out that the voucher I collected
is unusable because the item did not meet the T&C.
~Sigh!, I woke up dawn 1 am just to meet and get the voucher.
and now I can't use it.
A really bad experience.
Does this happen to you as well?

ohh sorry to hear that. No it did not happen to me as I dont online shop cuz I am scared of scams. like I see in videos like they got delivered a rock or a wood.
But have you tried contacting customer service?

You should do online shopping.
Scams happen rarely but not always.

It can if I am not careful about what I am doing. Ie: read everything and ensure what I am getting works. In some cases I have to guess, and hope.

That happened many years ago with a gift card I had received from a relative at Christmas. It was for 40 dollars at a store that is not nearby. The online store page was the only way to buy anything and use the gift card. I tried over and over and it would never accept the gift card code. I was never able to use the gift card.

It has happened to me a lot on TaoBao (Chinese online platform). Especially during holidays when it’s flooded with vouchers half of them didn’t work.
