Janneth was very supportive with my enquiry and request, she dealt with this promptly and professionally. I highly recommend. Thank you.

I did manage to get a discount, but no better than anywhere else. Most of the “discounts” aren’t actually student offers and are just lists of random sales you can already get directly from retailers. They are all generic, and just trying to push us to click affiliate links.

Great company and excellent support available when needed. Highly recommended.

I reached out to have someone help me get verified. Within minutes, Joshua emailed me back and gave clear instructions that worked almost immediately. The way Student Beans handled this situation says a lot about the level of service they provide. I am glad to work with them and I appreciate their care!

Went on the 'Lego' website and saw a link to Student Beans. It promised a discount to the disabled. I sent sensitive documents to get verified, which I was. Clicked on a link to 'get my discount' at Lego, spent £220 and got NO discount!

After contactinng Student Beans, someone called 'Joshua Torio' replied. I now believe it is A.I. replying as no-one is that STUPID! Apart from the replies being days apart... I am kept being asked to state what company I was using and for me to screenshot the error. I have stated SEVERAL times now 'Lego', and that there is NO error... Just no discount? So 'Joshua Torio' replied again stating 'sorry for the confusion', 'Please screenshot the error'! 'Joshua Torio' seems to be STILL CONFUSED! I don't know how many ways/times I can state THERE IS NO ERROR, JUST NO DISCOUNT! As I mentioned, 'Joshua Torio' has to be A.I. because NO-ONE can be that STUPID and INCOMPETENT!

So I have uploaded sensitive documents to what could be a scam to STEAL data? I have wasted so much time replying to what is probably A.I.; That CANNOT understand BASIC English. I am now so stressed out and worried about the documents I uploaded! STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM!

RE: Reply...

If Joshua is a 'real member' of your team... How is it on several occasions 'Joshua' either ignored, or didn't read my messages (which I still have)? And why did they KEEP asking me (multiple times) to screenshot an error that wasn' there... when in all my messages I CLEARLY stated there was no error message? so either 'Joshua' is an A.I (they are all bad), or they are completely incompetent?

I am a verified, enrolled college student at Grand Canyon University, and Student Beans permanently banned my account before I was ever approved or given access.

I submitted legitimate verification documents multiple times — student ID, class schedule, enrollment confirmation, student portal screenshots — because their email verification system does not work properly with my university’s server. I had to use their AI document upload process instead.

Rather than completing verification, I received a notice stating my account was permanently terminated for “repeated violations of terms.”

No violation was identified.
No incident was described.
No evidence was provided.

I was given a generic list of possible reasons and told it was “likely one of these.” The decision was labeled final in the same message.

Facts:
• I was never approved
• I never accessed the platform
• I never received or used a discount code
• The only action I took was submitting student verification documents

The only possible “issue” appears to be that I tried to verify more than once after their email system failed — which is not abuse, it is an attempt to comply.

I sent support over 30 screenshots and a full timeline of events. Their last reply was January 1. Communication stopped after that.

As a student relying on financial aid and managing a documented disability that my university formally accommodates, student discounts matter. Instead of help, I encountered an automated enforcement system with no transparency, no escalation path, and no accountability.

Being permanently banned without access, evidence, or explanation is not policy enforcement — it is system failure.

If you need manual verification or your school email has strict filters, understand that this platform may lock you out with no recourse.

Student Beans reversed the ban I now have an account.

no codes no dramas just one click discount applied, perfect

The process was super straight forward and easy to follow, and the deals pop up instantly.

I attempted to use them to verify eligibility for a Veteran's account on Acer. I submitted the requested documents and after not receiving a response, I opened a support ticket. The response was that my account was disabled permanently due to "Violations of terms."

The only suggestion I was given was to create a new account with a different email but doing this would have been another violation of their terms. I reached out Acer and they have confirmed that my experience was not unique and a lot of other people have encountered this problem.

If you are looking for a discount and Student Beans is the service, take your money somewhere else.

It was easy to use and I was able to use it on top of sale items! Pretty cool

Student Beans offers relevant discounts to my small family and I. High-Street shoe shops and sportswear, eco-ethical toiletries and student necessities. Entirely different to other discount sites that offer massive discount codes but for high end subscription groceries or designer clothes.

Good way to save money

Discount for Nike does not work. Asked for help and I give my information and still there is no one to help me, the app is useless. No one has responded.

Keep logging me out. Its so hard to get in. App layout is terrible too. Dont recommend to anyone. Waste of space

I loved how quick and easy it was to sign up and I got my discount immediately! Definitely recommend for any student looking for discounts.

Horrible customer support.
Verification wouldn't work so directed to studentbeans support.
Student beans support then directly verified documents but still requested us to resubmit through the site, highlighting the relevant info in picture. Submitted documents with customers support's highlighted info for it to be rejected and redirected to customer support again. Extremely frustrating, inefficient and poor customer support.

Fast reply time, nice people. Very good!

I placed an order for a Rituals gift card via Student Beans and I have still not received it. I have contacted customer service 3 times and still have not received a refund or the gift card. I have been scammed out of £40. Do not recommend purchasing gift cards via student beans links, you will not receive them.

Great website for students who wanna save money.

Great customer support.
