Beware Freepay redirecting referrals

rollingsta · 27-04-09, 02:32 PM

As i mentioned in freepay closing thread When a user clicks onto a referral link from freepay they get redirected to the myoffers.co.uk website.

This means that you will not get any sign up.

I have had myself and 2 others confirm this now.

Just a warning so you dont waste your website visits.

this is not good for those trying to complete before they close.

I think it is happening to non freepay UK members. (as my offers is uk website)

Is there any chance a few non freepay members can try this? (click someones ref link in the congas)

I went to the freepay via their site, and I didn't get redirected to myoffers.co.uk

Does this mean that it's just new members affected?

You seem well lucky with getting responses from freepay mate, could you do me a favour if it's no trouble and message them to extend my account please? I've been trying for so long and not getting even one response! All i need to do is click verify but i can't if they don't extend my account and this closing down scare is pressuring me to try all i can to get an extension. If you could just send in a ticket saying my friend needs an extension (i'll PM you my user ID) i would be soo sooo grateful.

It wasn't my email reply: http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/freep...tml#post476555 I never get replies!

Btw, I get a pop up for My Offers... if that's what people are getting?

Looks like you could be right.
I am totally unable to sign up to Freepay if I wanted to. Every one of their sites I click on redirects me...

Djoscar · 27-04-09, 04:04 PM

I think Freepay doesn't want people to sign up, because they are thinking about closing...

**MJ10** · 27-04-09, 04:05 PM

And yet they say their not?!

delude · 27-04-09, 04:06 PM

I just go through to the Freepay site. I've completed sites before with them, so perhaps they are only letting the IPs with accounts view the regular sites?

bt i may have signed up to freepay in the past

rollingsta · 27-04-09, 04:08 PM

So basically everyone is fk'd.

There all dropping like flys

**MJ10** · 27-04-09, 04:15 PM

But tbh, why would we want to promote FP as it's so badly gone downhill... the only crap thing is that i need 2 more greens so trying hard to convert 2 of the 22 sign ups I got. Proving difficult... even though some are from the conga who never went green!
