Price Matching


Will RI be offering the Iphone for less referals?
The 16gig model can now be found here for only 14 referals, thats only 1 more than what you need to get the 8gig model from you!!!

I hope you can be more aggressive with your referal rates

Thank you

Re: Price Matching


the giveaway site is a single item site which are always less refs .. also to be fair r.i are fairly competetive with there ref rates for example on fj a 8gb iphone is 14 refs and a 16gb is 15

Re: Price Matching


That may be true about being a single item site, but look at it from the consumer point of view.

You can go and get double the memory (plus dont forget the extras that the 16gig carries) for just 1 extra referal. Sounds very appealing to me and I know im not the only one who thinks that.

Imagine going into the local supermarket and ordering a Bounty, the till operator says that will be 39p but the person next to you in the queue says go around the corner to the local cornershop, they have the triple pack Bounty for 40p!!!

Sorry, I like to use examples to get my point across lol

Re: Price Matching


As stated above, single item sites will always have ls referrals because they are 'guaranteed' to get that amount for an item so the maths are easier.. you do not haveto worry about people bottling it and settling for a Shuffle!!

Also to use a real world example on how prices differ - Sainsburys in my town are selling a pack of 4 bottles of coke for £4.59 and Tesco round the corner have it on special offer for half price so where do I shop?

The thing with the internet is that everything is so easily accessible so it is much more noticeable.

Prices will always differ - if they didnt there would be no competition in the economy

More aggressive.....we have some of the lowest referrals around.

Each network is different, and each item offered will be based on what the network business model is like. E.g. we offer other items for less referrals, and some for slightly higher. Its a balancing act.

We have loads of happy members who think our referral rates are more than fair.

Re: Price Matching


I signed up, so I thought it was a fair price, but seeing cheaper has turned my head and got me thinking.

At the moment, im still advertising links for Apple RI as I have read a lot of positive feedback about you so I know you are trustworthy. Not getting any greens, but still advertising lol

Re: Price Matching


What people have to bear in mind is that a good site isnt just about "who has the lowest refs".

Take into account the range of offers that the site has, the more they have, the better chance you have of "enticing" yellows to do offers. A gift may be 1 or 2 more greens but it may be easier to get them for a site that has the same gift for less greens.

Take into account the support team on those sites, the speed they reply to tickets and how flexible they are. Take into account that some sites will verify you on Sunday and your item will be with you within a few days and not just once per month.

Look at freepay, everyone says they are fantastic because of low refs and ringtones but even if/when you get all your greens, you are then left with no real clue when it will be verified and when your gift will arrive. You dont always even know WHAT gift is arriving.

We have some fantastic sites on exceem, supported and non-supported and all the UK based sites have strong links with exceem and their members. The new sites have been a breath of fresh air and the longer established sites have had to change certain things to compete in a market that has grown considerably.

In short, the members are the ones to benefit.
