- Rated 1 out of 5by ventoz, a month agoScam Addon. Does not give you what it advertises. This addon will work with vendors to limit the discount you can get. This addon will also overwrite affiliate codes and add their own stealing commissions for the person who originally referred you.

- Rated 1 out of 5by NotYeMK, a month agoThis extension was recently outed as a scam. After checking and verifying it for myself, I can indeed say that the results seem true and it saddens me. I was hoping to actually get good deals and such like that. But now it seems that they are taking more from all of us than we really thought was possible. Guess I would have to go somewhere else to see if I can find more deals in this way.
- Rated 1 out of 5by mgclpcrn, a month agoAs y'all have seen from other comments, Honey has been scamming both consumers and influencers out of our money.
They've lied to consumers about finding "the best deal" when in reality many of the businesses they partner with and offer coupons for have asked for them to be selective about the coupons they offer. This screws us consumers over because we then don't think to scour the internet for better deals that are likely out there.
For your favorite influencers, whenever you click an affiliate link they provide, if you click on ANY Honey pop-up, it'll override their commission and that commission goes to Honey instead. And even further, even if they "give you rewards" for that commission they made, you're potentially getting less than 1% of that commission.
I should've known from the beginning it was too good to be true (apparently Markiplier even predicted years ago that something was off about Honey even if he didn't know what), but I especially should've known something was wrong when Paypal with their annoying selves bought Honey. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18746844, a month ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18746840, a month agoI assume everyone is leaving one star reviews for the same reason. If you aren't aware, look up "Honey Influencer Scam" on YouTube. Absolutely disgusting practice on PayPal's part.

- Rated 1 out of 5by kiliandj, a month agoThis is a complete 3-way scam, phishing, possibly fraud, and definitely false advertising.
There is no way that this is legal in any western nation.
The fact that this simple browser extension was sold for over 4 billion usd should be enough of a red flag that something is very shady about this by itself.
Its replacing affiliate links from influencers they sponsor without their (or the users) consent.
And actively working with shops to withhold coupon codes instead of 'giving you the best deals' as it claims too.
Frequently inserts affiliate links in without user consent by using browser notification 'get away' buttons and paypal checkout links as affiliate links.
And to top it all of frequently seems to be scamming the shops as well. - Rated 1 out of 5by the snooterrr, a month ago
