Join The Brand New DansDeals WhatsApp Community, Where Your Phone Number Remains Private!

WhatsApp has rolled out its newest feature ‘Communities’ which finally allows us to send deal alerts to your WhatsApp without you having to share your number publicly. With groups people can see your number and lead to spam and stalkers as has happened before.

Use this link to join the community and to share with friends so they can join as well.

We will be sending all of our deals to our new WhatsApp community. It is capped at 2,000 members and since launching it a day ago we already have 11,000+ members signed up, we will add more communities as needed.

In order for the links we share to be clickable, you will need to save an admins phone number to your contacts. Please save 216-302-4839 or any of the other admin phone numbers in the community.

Of course Dan got a 216 *770* number…
LOL!
How did you finagle 2 of those?:)

Steve

Not sure if it was planned this way, but the phone numbers for the community admins and creator are viewable.

BZ

Oh cool. Just realized it is 770 twice in each number..
Now that is really cool:)

Dan

Google Voice FTW 🙂

Moe

Google Voice allows you to choose a custom number?

Dan

Sure

Zaltz

Why is this different than the broadcasts whatsapp had till now?

Juke

Just watchin’ that number climb… And climb…

Jack

I just signed up. Will you be making a second group with an additional 5,000 people to join if the first one fills up ? I’m trying to contact my friend. Lol

Rich

Is this in place of the way we are currently receiving alerts from Dans Deals?

Dan

Nope, everything will continue working as it has been.

BigIssy

is this just a better way to receive deals? As groupme doesnt always sent texts

Dan

Yes. You can disable your GroupMe SMS.

BigIssy

Baruch HaShem!

Yaakov

Is one faster then the other? I like group me but if it’s delayed in comparison I would switch

Anthint

Can we unsubscribe from GroupMe and regular text messages now? We will get all the same updates?

Dan

Yes.

Nathan

C.t.

C.t.

I selected the link provided here and it keeps on saying ‘loading’

Jack

For those wondering who want to disable messages from groupme. Just go to your sms message and send the text #mute

And that should make it stop sending messages from the sender.

BigIssy

why not just exit the group via groupme

Yehuda

Thank you. Many don’t remember how they signed up for groupme so this is helpful.

BigIssy

lol. got it

Moish

It says can’t join because you were removed.

Aaron

I have a what’s app business app because of filter issues with regular app and link takes me only to regular what’s app. Is there anything I can do ?

Juke

Yes, turn off defaults for links to open that whatsapp. It’s in android app settings.

Tuck

Link just loading?

Chaim

Thank you Dan!

Joelfreak

Will this mirror the telegram alerts?

J

Is it better than telegram? Delete telegram?

Eluzer

It is better for those who don’t use Telegram

Moe

Is Telegram better if you use both a Telegram and WhatsApp?

yossi

Will Telegram still work or do I need to swtich?

Aliza

Will the same things be posted on the WhatsApp as the Telegram account or does one still need both to ensure receive the most current info in real time?

S

Btw, the whatsapp notifications are coming in a bit after Chrome notifications (Chrome was already slow).
Also, I’m able to click links without saving admin #.

Whatsapp Fail

I clicked the link, and it is telling me that I don’t have whatsapp installed on my phone…and I definitely do.

MSmilow

How do I get the WhatsApp notification to display graphics, not just text?

Shulammis Saxon

Thank you for setting this up!!

Moe

When attempting to join this new dansdeals community using the above link, WhatsApp is trying to force me to move my WhatsApp number to “WhatsApp Business”. Why and that on earth?!

Nathan Weiss

Either you are using business on your phone or you have both in which case you say open in WhatsApp after that

J

Your hyperlinks are not active in WhatApp Desktop

Daniel

Telegram is better

Moe

How so?

Moe

Are you already on your second or third group of 5,000?

Awaiting response

Hey Dan, any new talk about making an app for apple?

LamDan

Apple would then demand a fat slice of all income brought in through usage of the app… #oligarchs

Lindnuck

Any chance of breaking these out, so you only get alerts on travel?

E

That would be fantastic

YY

agree, it would be great if we could limit the types of notifications either by category or at lease between time sensitive or just informational

Ari

Posted into a whatsapp message & Tried clickling the Join Group link but whatsapp says “Something went wrong try again later”

Ari

Whatsapp says “Can’t Join group b/c its full”

Michael

Will this be replacing telegram?

YH

Will the Twitter alerts be going away or can I just stay with those?

Chaim

menachem
