DiscoDJChris · 31-07-05, 11:45 AM

my account is exactly the same. I have been with them since January and have had only one update

adammcg · 31-07-05, 08:33 PM

Yes they are extremely slow but they still deliver

NYCSavage · 02-08-05, 04:20 PM

i have had my account for over 3 months and it has just frozen in time.

Had 1 green and 4 people sign up for 1 offer and 62 people in total signing up with no offers complete for over 3 months????

Every person who signed up was told instructions on what to do including completing 2 offers.

I have emailed them constantly with not a single word back from them.

FREEIPODUK - VERY BAD

ToonGeneral · 02-08-05, 04:53 PM

I think we may have to start thinking about removing support for Submission Tech if this isnt resolved soon?

jimbonkers · 02-08-05, 07:29 PM

Well in freeipoduk's defence i got my ipod mini 1 month after 7 referrals were received and very good updateing!

ToonGeneral · 02-08-05, 07:50 PM

Yes, and how long ago was that?.....

Si

NYCSavage · 03-08-05, 02:53 PM

plus I was told that they only update their site once a week every thursday.

I know the grab network do theirs at least daily

kcleigh2 · 03-08-05, 07:38 PM

i havent actually joined any of these yet but i was just wonering even though you have had you accounts open for so long have you been charged or have you had to pay any money at all

Danny · 03-08-05, 08:00 PM

I'd say focus on any other site than the submission sites !!!

kcleigh2 · 03-08-05, 09:39 PM

how do you mean the others site could you pleae leave me the links of thats ok ,its just im new to this and im not sure what to do thanks for helping in advance

ToonGeneral · 03-08-05, 10:44 PM

Well there are lots of sites! What sort of item are you interested in getting?

Si

Danny · 04-08-05, 07:26 AM

Have a look at the main forum page and then have a look at some othe the other networks listed. Decide which to go for from the list.

hazzeryoda · 04-08-05, 09:18 AM

seriously though, a formal complaint on behalf of Exceem via the trading standards or some ombudsman service (obviously requiring the correct research) might just kickstart submission. I would be happy to call Watchdog or something. Are they breaking the rules? I know they probably exempt themselves from anything in their terms but the non-existant service they provide is entirely unfair and they are sitting ona mountain of advertiser's cash whilst not having to fork out a penny.

If people are with me then I'd be happy to chase this up.

Danny · 04-08-05, 09:19 AM

There is nothing you can do - in the terms you agree to on the site (and this applies to all the sites) they do not gurentee you going green. So there are not actually doing anything wrong.

hazzeryoda · 04-08-05, 09:25 AM

I know, thats what I said, but surely they are obliged to provide at least some level of service if they are a registered company marketing their product/service. To leave paying customers in the lurch like this has been done before and companies have been severely repremanded regardless of exempting terms and conditions.

Danny · 04-08-05, 09:30 AM

If you agree to a sites terms and conditions, no matter what they say then you have no comeback at all.

They do not state they will reply to every question they have either.

A website like this can not control hwo a user access thier site and then the related offers. Thats why they state they will not gurentee any offer credits.

You didn't pay to join thier site and they never asked for any money. You out of your owen choice decided what offer to complete and what to pay.

I'm in no way sticking up for them as i do think they are taking the micky - but there is nothing, abosolutly nothing you can do.

Focus on a site that has gained a good reputation. And take freeipoduk as a learning curve.

kcleigh2 · 04-08-05, 08:15 PM

so say that i register on this site no links allowed then no matter how long that i am on registered for on it then it shouldnt cost me anything or is that wrong please help me lol

NYCSavage · 04-08-05, 08:19 PM

kc, it depends on the offer that u complete.

if u did a free trial, then as long as u cancelled it in time, then u will never pay a penny for as long as you have an account
