Green problem on gadgets?

crispyste · 04-12-08, 08:57 PM

This is probably me just being paranoid. Out of my last 45 signups I've had no greens, compared to usually getting 1:12. Is this just coincidience or is it something to do with the change from modcons to gadgets (i was an existing modcons member)?

I have had about 80 yellows without a green on apple. I know how you feel. I am thinking there is a problem.

FurbtasticM · 04-12-08, 09:07 PM

I had a pending this evening on Gadgets (LOVEFilM)

Monkeyegg · 04-12-08, 09:08 PM

I have checked and we are getting offers completed today by people on the Gadgets site, so I don't think there are any technical problems preventing offer completion.

crispyste · 04-12-08, 09:09 PM

Ah, thanks for checking! Just me being a trifle paranoid lol

Hmm, we'll look into it then to see if there's a problem seeing as there's a few of you saying the same thing.

Maybe, it was Lovefilm I checked because that's the offer that is completed the most and there were a fair few completed through Gadgets accounts. All that means is that if there is a problem, it isn't affecting all accounts. There may still be a problem that is affecting some accounts but not others and we'll do some testing to see if we can find anything.

Maybe new accounts (ie signed up since the change) aren't affected, an old ones are? Assuming of course there is a problem, which there might not be. I'll post here if and when I get a green.

That's axactly what my problem is aswell. about 100 sign ups and 1 pending (love film).

az87aris · 04-12-08, 11:55 PM

I've had a few on gifts, consoles and gadgets, and seeing this thread has made me really paranoid! One of them on gifts went straight to green, the eAuction tutor offer. The rest are still red.

crispyste · 05-12-08, 09:56 AM

Just had two pendings on gadgets!

Guess I spoke too soon lol.

My ratios have always been a bit rubbish on apple, around 1:22 vs 1:12 on gadgets.

FurbtasticM · 05-12-08, 10:10 AM

There have been quite a few threads over recent weeks/months about sudden dips in ratios.....and most of them will have been on a Thursday.

Thursday is officially the worst day for freebie sign-ups

I don't know. When the green appeared i tried to find it on the offers page just to see what the referral had to do to complete it but couldn't find it anywhere. It is a US sign up though so maybe it just doesn't appear for us UK members (although other US offer do show up in my offers list)

lol
