Automatically linked my PayPal account to itself, without my permission. Then, it would not let me login without logging in to PayPal.

Deleted.

Worthless crap anyway...never works, I have used this app for well over 5 years and none of the points ever accumulate, it takes months upon months to get anything back, and when you do, it is a terrible point to purchase ratio and point magically disappear without warning and no way to get any live person on the phone to help with anything.

Save your time, privacy, and everything else and uninstall this bloatware.

For such a praised addon, I have to say this is the most annoying and useless addon I have ever had the displeasure of using. It rarely works on the sites I'd like it to work on, and even when it does it constantly pops up telling me it can save me money only for every single discount code to fail.

Probably just an addon used to track analytics of online shoppers. Nothing more. Might save you a couple bucks somewhere down the road, but not enough to be worth the headache.

Not easy to use, not intuitive, barely works. Saved me maybe $15 in 3 years of use.

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.

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.

Scamware/Spyware. I've had this extension for well over 2 years now and it's slowly turned into a useless add-on that only spies on my transactions and history. The coupon codes don't work and it dramatically affects browser performance for no real benefit. I actually forgot I had it installed. The first few months it actually seemed useful. That time has long since passed. It was bought out by Paypal so it'll be yet another data miner with no real actual use except for invading your privacy. As Firefox is one of it not the last privacy based browsers, it becomes useless if you install garbage like this.

not functional

The app would not let me add anything to the droplist. I would click "Add to droplist" then it asked me to select the size and style of the item I wanted, which was not possible as the dropdown boxes did not work.

None of the codes work, and it reset my order.
Scam app

just scans your purchases, sells the data, and tells you you're getting the best deal. garbage scamware

Had this for about 5 years, maybe once has a coupon worked - all they do is sell your data, don't bother with this

This extension was good at the begining but now it will ignore the good promo codes just to put their own promo codes or afiliate codes, best example of this is Gamersupps store, there are over 100 codes that give 10% off and many that give 15% off even free international shipping ones but honey will insist that the only code they have for that store is their own "HONEY" for 5% off, honey has become a scummy bussines and it makes me sick that they are actively ignoring whats best for the user just to fill their agenda. Scum

11/2024 update: Lmao they were EVEN WORSE than i expected "watch?v=vc4yL3YTwWk" youtube link

It's search engine is absolute garbage, half the time the emailed recommendations aren't at all what I've shown an interest in, and for the places I shop, it either doesn't find any deals, finds invalid/expired deals, and after all that I don't get the gold credit for anything, even with big sites. I guess I'll go back to not having all of my purchases tracked by a third-party data broker who is just selling all my info and acting like they're doing me a favor.
