WanMaTang ,

Great this is coming and hopefully at some point replaced all paperwork

I have downloaded like the tracking function but then seems I only can save 1 receipt when trying to add a second one through + it keeps overwriting first entrance

Developer Response ,

Hi WanMaTang, we have listened and you will very soon be able to track and save multiple tracked refunds in-app. Remember to always update to the latest version of the app to get the latest features and functionality. Thanks, Global Blue.

Liars & Thieves

Definitely not recommend.
They delay as much as possible the reimbursement of your VAT (it took 2 full months to get the VAT back). They pretend they sent a cheque, made wire transfers, etc when they have done nothing as such. They just try to play mental fatigue, hoping you will forget / stop asking for your money back so that they can keep all the VAT.
Even worse, if you push to get your money back then you get charged other random fees (such as FX). I made a purchase in EUR, provided a bank account in EUR to receive the VAT, and they try to reimburse in USD when I asked in EUR (please note I am based in the U.K. so USD makes no sense at all). And then, they pretend that given they tried to pay in USD, you have to pay FX fees, etc. (interestingly the day on which they apply the exchange rate is exactly the day the currency in which they want you to convert, USD in my case, is the strongest). It is just pathetic.
Clearly reading other posts / reviews summarised Global Blue well: liars & thieves

Great service, follow the instructions and you’ll be fine!

Saved so much time with this app, all my details pre loaded and saved, credit card info email address and passport all registered. I scanned my globalblue barcode after shopping and all info is pre filled from my account onto the forms, no need to produce anything. All my transactions are validated through the app, so no need for me to mess about in the airport. Once you know how to use, it’s easy! Used twice now and had no issues! Money refunded within 5 days via my card. Great service.
