Twitter banter between brands is always such a fun read, seeing one brand trying to outwit the other.
GrabOn tried to pick on Groupon India with this offer:
Why buy a Uber first ride deal at @grouponin for Rs 9 when it’s free at @GrabOnIn – Use this code GRAB400

Groupon India wasn’t going to take it all lying down. Pat came the reply –
@GrabOnIn bcoz there’s something called “Originality”. Maybe U shd try it sometime

And then then banter continued…
@Grouponin , Try “Uber Coupons”, Google search will have the answer for that. 🙂

@GrabOnIn You guys are cute. First the name, then the logo and now this. Is there any part of your business that isn’t inspired by Groupon?
— Groupon India (@GrouponIn) May 1, 2015
@GrouponIn “Free Coupons” Enough said 🙂
— GrabOn (@GrabOnIn) May 1, 2015
Groupon India ended the conversation with this.
@GrabOnIn Freebies are good fun but those killer deals that you promote as a Groupon affiliate are what rock the world 🙂 #EndOfDiscussion
