Unhappy

Well...this sux :(


I had 3 refs a while back...and I signed into FJ to find that one had been revoked. It was the Gamefly offer.

I came here, to exceem and saw the FJ guy post about the removal of the GameFly offer...a while later, I was surprised when I got a green !!!

Someone had done the GameDuell offer.

Then, today morning, when I sign in to Exceem I saw that my other GameFly green had been revoked too....frankly, this is kinda disheartening... the guy had completed the GF offer nearly 3 weeks ago.

I came back to the "Offer removal" thread by the FJ guy and saw that some people had their revoked offers turned back to green !!

WTH is this ? Why aren't my refs green ? The 2 Gamefly refs, I asked them to complete the offers for me (they're my friends) and they had done it properly...They even rented games !!!

So, a question for the people who still have their GF greens, when did your refs sign up ??

When they signed up won't make any difference at all. If fj get a report to tell them they won't be paid for particular offer completions then they revoke them from the accounts whether they are 3 days or 3 weeks old.

I would imagine that they revoked most of the gamefly offers and then were given a list of offer completions that they will be paid for and as such reinstated those offers.

Unfortunately sometimes these things happen. You can't expect fj to pay out if they haven't received any money from the advertisers. It was a free offer and so it hasn't cost your friends anything.

Just a suggestion, show them exceem and have them look around. and search youtube for "freejeebies tv" (there exists multiple recorded news casts on youtube about FJ that verify s its not a scam as well for "proof" videos from users around the world.
pick a video you like and show it to them maybe.

When did your friends cancel their trial, if it was too early then this may of been the reason, its all well renting a game but they must not cancel too early.

P.S. Sorry, i know i am not meant to talk about canceling but this offer no longer exists and plus it was in favor of the offer.

They were actually impressed by GameFly and decided not to cancel..Thats why I'm disappointed at this whole thing.

this was my point in my ignored thread! Using a gift/virtual card does not mean that you are not going to continue... people sometimes top them up just to cover the bills... makes money management easier!!

I understand that they can be used properly however advertisers have found that incentive traffic use of this card leads to a massive cancellation/fraud rate. They can't take the risk and as such nor can we.

yes, but to revoke them, when they have actually fulfilled their part of the bargin, and have actually continued after the trial, there must surely be some way to appeal against this??

Otherwise what is the point when affiliate networks can be so fickle and slap on wholesale bans.... I am pretty sure that they get paid!! (and by this I mean the offer broker, not Freebiejeebies)

Sir, I made a support ticket about this too...if the referrals had used valid credit cards, rented games and not cancelled their subscriptions, why did they get revoked ?

Doesn't it look bad when the user sees that their offer had been revoked for no reason (if they aren't on exceem) ?

Our own T&C are clear that prepaid/virtual cards should not be used for completion of any offers on our sites. Therefore any offers completed using these cards have not been completed correctly... it is due to some advertisers not considering such payment cards to be "valid payment methods" that we have to insist on this.

"Their" meaning those who don't read the T&C's. So ends up being "Their" loss.
