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

K... 2 things here:

1: Freepay doesn't seem to be closing down

Freepay is not shutting down at this time. If we decide to make a
change to our business we will post it on our site. For all other
requests please contact help.freepay.com.

Thank you for your time,

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.

MJ10 · 27-04-09, 04:01 PM

It wasn't my email reply: Freepay Closing?!! 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?

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!
