FreePay worth it?

[freeipodhei]

Just stumbled upon good old freepay and i notcied you only need 5 people for a 30gb ipod video and they have LoveFilm, 90 days to do it but thats not half bad, why on earth dont more people do this?

[mattflower]

I got an Xbox 360 from them, it took me forever. I really really complained about them on here the customer service was terrible (Automated responses) every step of the process was really really slow.
I said i'd never use them again . . . but I am actually doing the laptop one, 20 refs for an ibook . . can't be bad.
So in summary your product will arrive but don't expect any niceties like you get with a company like real incentives, you wont get freepay coming on here or getting back to you swiftly

I've been put off freepay because of the generally bad press they've been getting round here. I know a couple of people here are waiting on 360s from freepay, might have another look at the network in the new year if those materialise.

[freeipodhei]

I have read the bad press on here about them, but there is just something about only needing 5 people for a 30gb ipod, that is considerably lower than anywhere else. With that low number of referrals, im hoping there wont be as many problems as there would be going for items that required more referrals. Less people to be put on hold, not receive credit etc.

[mattflower]

just don't expect great things from them/your free product

[freeipodhei]

Do they often not pay out ?

[alex.hulme]

I just got a 360 from them yesterday. No problems atall, verified in 2 days and item received in about 5 weeks.

I had no response to my support questions though so if you do run into problems with the network then you'll probably have a tough time trying to get it sorted.

[mattflower]

maybe i'm being unfair and they've sorted their act out

[biggad]

as far as i know they've never completely ripped someone off.
i'm doing gifts.freepay now. 5 for a 30gb, 10 for a 360 and 20 for a laptop.
They're just very very slow.

[mattflower]

isn't there a thread somewhere by matkavs where he's been completely ripped off by them?
Don't quote me on that and i'm sure you're right Biggad that they wouldn't completely do you over, just take their time in getting you your stuff

[biggad]

yeah matkavs has been messed aroung bigtime but i don't think the matter is over yet.
hopefully after a few threats he'll be ok

[FurbtasticM]

Matkavs has the power of green with him now so should get that sorted !! (any chance of an update, would be interested to hear)

I'm on the 30gb iPod trail. Sent my approval form off to the States earlier in the week. Took me just over six weeks to get 8 greens (I needed 5) from 80 referrals and support tickets were answered promptly.

Proof of the pudding will be receiving the goods but they seem like a long established network.

[freeipodhei]

Do you need to complete an offer with freepay before your referrals go through? I know this may seem like a stupid question, but they lay out of the accounts page on freepay is different from other freebie sites.

no you don't mate

I got my 360 from freepay today! It was ordered from amazon so I have a receipt and everything! I'd say go for it if you can get the greens in the time limit.

[freeipodhei]

5 greens in 90 days, no fear!

[rockykabir]

They were the best once upon a time....but since their 90 day and form rubbish, people don't bother with them.

Having said that, they are sending out items again - so for a beginner, it's worth a try

[free4fun]

What seems to be the average time that freepay take to respond to a support ticket? I've raised 2 within the last 3 weeks and have yet to hear anything from them

[bmh16]

Erm no offernce mate but this post is over a month old!

Any way to reply to your question, this is freepay we are talking about! Have never tried a freepay site myself so am unsure of what the usual is, but i wouldn't expect mega quick replies! 3 weeks is a bit long though. Send another one in if i was you.
