Like most people here, I've noticed the PayPal tomfoolery afoot. Now it even tries to force you to link or use a linked PayPal account to do something as basic as logging in. Stay away from this trash. Used to be amazing. Not so much now.

I was trying to uninstall the extension through my settings, due to privacy concerns, and it literally would not work and would re-enable itself somehow. I had to manually go into my Firefox profile files and delete the entire Honey extension folder to get it to finally uninstall from my browser. Highly recommend avoiding this mess!

I got this extension since people I trust recommended it. Without ever spending it, my gold balance vanished. And no matter how much I try the coupons never work - and the "earn gold for this purchase" never deposits a single piece of gold. I've been at 0/1000 for over a year now despite regularly shopping and being told I had a lot coming from my Christmas purchases in 2022 and 2023. Never seen a single gold.

TLDR; Not interested in you getting good rebates but getting there highest share of provision and data on you since bought by PayPal.

Used to be good and helpful, now it is a data collector for PayPal. In recent months no code worked or it did replace better or equal codes with Ref-Codes from Honey where they make more money themself. Also blocks codes from competitors when theyself have none, screwing the customer in the process.

I mainly used the droplist feature, but it no longer works on Amazon from my Firefox browser.

Used to be a great plugin, now its just a time waster and data thief.

None of the codes it suggest work, which slows down your checkout on sites. Plus goodness only knows how much personal data they farm.

I have to agree, the Honey Firefox extension is nowhere near as good as the Chrome version. Disappointing.

Shit.

I've used Honey for years and something's changed. I've tried 10 times over the last 5 months to redeem my points for gift cards, which never arrive. I've contacted Honey at least 5 times via chat, email and Twitter. No response or help. Chatbot crashes and freezes every time. Total scam company.

Not a single site I've gone to has had Honey do anything. It is a waste of space and wouldn't be surprised if it is just farming your data.

its helped save me money on items
