Twice..? Really?

Ginister · 08-12-08, 02:58 PM

Well lets start off where we should be.
I just joined this eXceem. It looks cool.
I was searching Google to see who could resolve my issue...
Well, basically, I signed up to iphone.giveaway.co.uk. I got 16 referrals in about 2 months!
About five were put on hold just after I attempted to verify my account.
I worked my way up to 13 for a black iPhone. 2 more refferals 'killed off'. Now I have one more and I think it will happen again...
Please tell me what is up and what I can do about it!
Thanks for your help.

There's not much you can do really mate :/

Welcome to eXceem!

Dunstan · 08-12-08, 03:05 PM

Do you know your referrals or are they internet randoms?

**the_icks** · 08-12-08, 03:17 PM

take the money and run!!!! custom order!!

SelfSilent · 08-12-08, 03:47 PM

This is one of the reasons I'm moving over to FJ, there seems to be a lot less of this going on over there, they don't suddenly start putting your greens on hold.

**the_icks** · 08-12-08, 04:47 PM

hmmmmm... greens go on hold for the same reasons regardless of the site..

Ginister · 09-12-08, 03:16 PM

They r randoms but why do they go on hold? I just don't get it. Is it a scam or are my refs seriously commiting fraud (or wtf they got on hold 4) Has anyone got 3bies off GA yet? I just want proof confirmation :P

Have you looked at the I Got My Free Item forum?

Good point, just looked, have I just really been unlucky?

grabrail · 09-12-08, 03:50 PM

Yeah its the way it goes sometimes, some people just don't read the rules properly and end up getting their account stopped.

Unfortunately there is little you can do. Some poeple email their yellows and explain the rules and offer any help or advice to completing their offer

Ginister · 13-12-08, 03:02 PM

do you think tab will read this and help or is that pretty rare?

There would be a very good reason to why these have been put on hold. I do not believe for one moment that Tab or anyone else in the Giveaway Network would do this unless rules had been broken.
This is my experiance of the network. I spent about 6-8 weeks gathering my greens, none were ever put on hold apart from one at our request because my wife has signed up our lodger inadvertantly breaking the rules, thus forming a duplicate account. We when we joined Exceem realised that we had done wrong by doing so and informed Tab, well before our account was even due for verification and he was very understanding and looked into it for us and placed the offending green on hold in order for us to be able to continue with our account and as a result of this .....well you can read this to see what happened

http://www.exceem.co.uk/forums/i-got...k-you-tab.html

If your greens are being put on hold then it will be because they are doing something wrong. The only thing that you can do is to contact them and to
ask them to put in a support ticket to find out the reason. The most common cause of an account being put on hold would be that they sign up one of their family members in order to try and gain more greens thus resulting in duplicate accounts. This is against the t&c's of the account and is normally picked up during verification this resulting in those accounts being placed on hold.
But you can read in this forum alone, that there are a lot of us that have receieved our freebies from Giveaway and the ones that havent are normally those that have broken the terms and conditions of the site in some way.
If you are having a lot of those then you need to read all the rules of the site carefully ad impress upon your signups that if they break those rules that it will result in them losing their account.
I am sure that you can appreciate the network has to protect itself from the many unscruplolous people that are out there.

Just to add, Tab helped me out no end and many other people with regards to these accounts he is extremely busy as they are one of the largest networks however he is very fair as I have seen first hand

(excuse the spelling btw

Dont worry about the Giveaway Network they are very good at what they do and you will get a fair run with them as long as you are being fair back

Cannot stress how important it is though for you to read their t and c's and make sure your signups know them too.

rhysjones_1 · 16-12-08, 08:41 PM

do GA do customs?

tronsmith · 16-12-08, 09:05 PM

Yeah, £25 per referral for customs! Need at least 4 greens (Except shuffle which is 2).

Ginister · 18-12-08, 03:36 PM

You can always apply for the trade section now if you havent already done so, this way you can actively trade for the last couple of refferals, this is what myself and a lot of other people have done in order to complete their offers
