I have the same question. Any one buy any thing from this deal site.

is it legit?

[hannahtjmom]

I was wondering the same thing? Has anyone bought deals from them before?

[hcao]

I do not know, but I just bought them. I will call my credit card company to see what they will tell me?

Can I ask my credit card company to refuse paying?

Thanks!

It looks fishy and too good to be true for me.....

sounds fake

[dobbsie]

They offer 100% refund policy. You can also pay with paypal which has buyer protection. Companies that are scams wouldn't use paypal. They are also answering questions online. Seems ok

Haven't bought from them but would be wary. They have apparently removed comments from their page, and on FB as well -


If I'm wrong, then YAY to you who got a great deal!

can you buy it if you live outside the ottawa area???

i assume you can use the gift card at any petro canada but it says people that live in ottawa....

[chriscfgb]

I've bought deals from them before and the vouchers were honored.

I just bought 3, and I had my wife do the same.

I am not remotely concerned about this being a scam. They just "relaunched" and I suspect this is an effort to generate buzz.

Your City Deals Yes, this offer is available nationwide and the gift cards can be used at any Petro Canada location across Canada.

Yes..Call them and immediately stop payment.

Also ..Cancel your card and ask them to issue you a new one , if they tell you tht the site is fishy.

This seems to be too good to be true , maybe I am wrong , but why take a chance ?
