I've been waiting for approval for 2 full weeks now. Anyone else stuck in waiting for approval mode? I asked them since it was more than 5 days and they told me

When i think of quickly, usually that is a couple days not a month...this waiting stinks. I hope there are others out there in the same boat. Not because you are waiting, but just so that i know i am not the only one stuck in waiting for approval mode

They are dragging it out a bit. I should have been approved a long time ago. First they put one of my referrals on hold for no reason. They realized their mistake and then fixed it, but now its been a while and I'm waiting to get approved a 2nd time.

My thought in my case was they already went through all 5 of my refferals once, why am I waiting yet again? IMHO as soon as they fixed their error I should have been approved instantly since the only refferal "in question" was resolved.

At this point they are either stalling for time because they don't have money/ipods or they are planning on putting referrals on Hold and just want to drag it out. I hope nobody has the same problem like I did where you wait weeks only to have someone put on Hold. The longer the wait the more likely that seems. I swear I If they go out of business or another one of my refferals gets put on Hold I'm gonna be so bummed.

I think they're just doing larger batchs now so when they order they can get a larger discount, So since freeipods.com i know is slower then their other sites it is because they are waiting for more people to apply for approval so they can be approved in one HUGE batch and ordered in one HUGE batch

been waiting since the 1st too.....i was hoping to have an Ipod by the 1st week of may for a road trip....looks like thats not gonna happen (

and there were people getting their shuffle accounts approved in a matter of hours....

i'm hatin gratis now....

yup, i'm thinking that ipods is slower then shuffles so they get their chunks of orders faster then other sites

ya the shuffles is quick to be approved since it only requires 3...My GFs account was submitted for approval on 04/15 hopefully it gets approved with the rest of you guys.... GOOD LUCK

I am also waiting for approval now. It hasnt even been 5 business days for me though so I'll wait til then before I start complaining. Just based on my experiences so far with freepsps and freegamingsystems i am preparing for a loooong wait on freeipods too

I've been waiting since the 13th. However it is my 3rd time requesting approval. They keep putting the same referral on hold and then taking them right off. Every time it's come back as denied it happens on a Tuesday. So today I hope to hear something.

[quotec90a92cfa1]RealtorKen, I apologize for the delay, however due to the recent influx of approval requests and the care with which we approve them, it is taking longer than usual to process the approval requests. Due to the exceptional potential for fraud in our line of work, we have to be very careful in approving accounts and sometimes it takes a while. We are working on approving your account as we speak. We thank you for your continued patience in this matter.
