Watch out!

Alexander@DXB

I have mailed six tax-free forms at once on January 15th. After two months I get refunded all except one and ever since support keeps telling me to check back in in 2-3 weeks. Support simply ignores my escalation request. Now I started to let customs directly stamp the invoice (your invoice address needs to be your home address abroad). You get full tax free refund, its quicker and you don't depend on global blue company which obviously doesn't care.

Doesn’t work any more on iPhone on iOS 14


What happened to the refund calculator?

It’s shown on the preview but is no longer a feature. Also it seems to be stuck on Argentina. I can’t even see other countries.


App doesn’t register address or passport updates.

The app allows you to update your passport expiry date but doesn’t change it even after you saved the information. I have changed my address and password expiry date a few times and when I go back still has wrong information. Need to fix this glitch.


Refunds NOT Updating

So at least from my many experiences on these VAT tax free purchases, they don’t always update accurately and timely. I have some that have already been refunded. And they’re not showing!


Validation Identification doesn’t work

s4d.com.ua

Can’t proceed verification, all data was filled from passport scan, but Identification scan always failed. Very dissatisfied, looks like way to not pay tax free using this as a reason.


Refund tracker disappeared

My refunds just disappeared. They were showing status and now I don’t see anything


Disappearing purchases

It is a great concept but when you can’t even count on tracking basic purchases - it really destroys trust and value. Make sure to hold all your receipts and tracking numbers because the app just has them disappear.


Must agree to junk mail

In order to create an account, you must tick a box agreeing that Global Blue can use your information for marketing purposes besides what is required to process tax refunds. I’m not here to get junk mail - I’m disappointed that you can’t create an account without agreeing to marketing! Deleting the app.


All my forms were stamped

And yet I receive a notice that one was not. I had them all stamped at the airport. Someone else has messed this up. I received my refunds for my other purchases. Annoying. Not sure I will use Global Blue again.
