Thats rubbish my order was apparently dispatched at the end of January, however nothing recieved, I'm willing to have patience however this is a joke!

The question is, will your parcel be harder to find than Tab?

SandDancer · 13-03-09, 07:46 PM

i doubt tab will show up on here until every order has been delivered ( then again he may still not show up ) , i think he is for a lot of stick

We have no idea why tab isnt on here and there may be reasons that make it impossible for him to be on here so let's just wait before anyone decides to "give him stick"

whatever the reason, we all agree that GA should have made a post here explaining what was happening.

not exactly the kind of response I expected from you.

I agree the service from GA has been shocking and have said so many times but us mere members don't know the reason why tab isnt on here and maybe should think about it before people give him stick.

If tab had a major health problem that meant he couldnt be on exceem or something similar, think how small you and/or others would feel after giving him stick.

All I'm saying is that stick is deserved where it is due but let's just wait and see if we get a reason. If the reason simply is that they have avoided exceem because they didnt want hassle/abuse, then maybe the stick will be deserved and I certainly wont be defending them.

I'm not defending them now, I just know by my own experiences recently that maybe it's better to find out the truth first, agreed?

**claire80** · 14-03-09, 12:12 PM

last response for me was 2nd march ........ so my tickets have now been going on for 3 months and still no gift - joke.

I'd think Lisa would feel even worse then, bearing in mind the volume of support tickets that she has "passed to Tab".

SandDancer · 14-03-09, 07:45 PM

The way i see it is this -
giveaway are a business - we are the customers ( along with probs hundreds of other customers who are not part of this community )

we as customers have a right to know what the hell is going on.

we as customers have a right to know were our gifts/orders/bank transfers are.

if you were to be treated like this by any other business what would you do about it.

just because giveaway are a freebie network does not give them the right to hold onto everyones gifts/money .

giveaway get paid the same time as every other freebie network on this forum.

we do the offers/get the refferals then giveaway get paid - they should then send out the gifts asap ( not keep people waiting for 3 months or more ) .

if giveaway are in trouble then they should say so ( on here or in support tickets )

And every day this goes on the reputation of the giveaway network goes down the pan ( and not just on here ), probs hundreds of other people who signed upto the once upon a time NO1 network are calling them worse than crap also , and telling friends and family that it looks like they have been ripped off.

**arcticfox** · 14-03-09, 07:54 PM

I have no argument with anything that you have said there Sandancer, I agree 100%.

All I'm saying is that members do not know the facts behind tab not being on exceem so shouldnt give him "stick" without that knowledge.

Glad you agree arctic , but to be blunt 99.9% of the people who have been waiting months for gifts to be sent out ( also getting lied to in support tickets ) dont give a damn about the facts behind tabs no show on here , all they want is what is due to them , and to know why its taking so damn long to get sorted .
It would take all of 2 mins to come on here and make a statement as to whats going on ( or not going on ) and put a lot of peoples minds at rest

digger600 · 14-03-09, 08:11 PM

never used giveaway and probably never will now but definately agree with you sandancer, well said

corky20 · 14-03-09, 08:54 PM

Wow haven't been on exceem in ages...

...anyway the last reply I got was 20th January, I have since sent 2 support tickets with no responses!

Diesel · 14-03-09, 11:55 PM

Just got a response, looks like it is cashflow problems because Lisa mentioned "We apologise for the delays with despatch, and ask for patience while difficulties faced in the present economic climate are worked through."

I just think its all stalling tactics as they told me to wait end of Feb and now they're telling me end of March. The credit crunch couldn't have affected a freebie network that badly. Check FJ out, going stronger than ever!

Well I got a reply to my support ticket within a couple of hours last night. The ticket was regarding lovefilm updates.
Here's the response:

"Thank you.

Please expect Lovefilm to update within the next two weeks. They are currently updating once monthly, and with a 2-4 week backdate.

However, if your referral has waited since January, and January updates have processed, please ask them to contact us directly for a manual update.

Regards,"

Not sure why I should ask my referrals to contact GA for a manual update though, surely GA can see the ones they missed?
