There seems to be a new trial on freepay where you pay $1 for a seven day trial and get a $25 walmart giftcard. seems like a good deal to me, just like completehome.

anyone tried it yet?

thanks

It would help if you tell the name of the offer ) That way someone might actually know if they completed it ;)

It's not new, was around a while ago. I did it and a couple of friends did it. It credits at around the 6th or 7th day. Great offer.

I completed it last night and so did 1 of my referrals. I got the email today which linked me to the order form for the giftcard. It said i have to be a member when the order is processed for me to actually receive the giftcard though, so i am wondering if they are going to wait until after the 7 day trail period to process the order, in which case i wont be receiving a giftcard.

Still no credit but it says 2-3 days so im not worried yet.

does it have to be a credit card or a debit card with a visa logo on it?

abrock124

18-10-2005 14:10:22

personally i use my Visa debit card. Thats what i have used to complete every offer since i first started doing free sites and i have never had a problem with it, so i dont see why this offer would be any different. I'm supposed to be able to use my card everywhere visa is accepted.

Sounds like a good offer. Would it be possible to just sign up for the trial and get credit and to not bother ordering the gift card? I was just wondering because I know it's free but I wouldn't really need it, I only want the offer credit. I was just wondering if they relied on each other and you had to complete both in order to receive credit. I plan on doing this offer but I better hurry before it disappears like Blockbuster and Real Rhapsody!

i highly doubt you have to order the gift card if you dont want to. I'm sure they would rather you didnt, it would save them money.

18-10-2005 19:38:10

True.

18-10-2005 19:41:41

I just looked at the offer and under the offer completions that pop up from freepay, it says the trial is $1.00 but on the site it says the trial is free. Which is true?

thehacker010

18-10-2005 20:03:03

I did not get the card. They told me that I had to be a current member when the card is shipped, and they did not ship the card while I was a trial member...

However, it was 2-3 day credit for me.

On this offer, make sure you don't sign up on any additonal offers.

I reffered a relative, he signed up for this offer on Monday Night (October 17th), and he went green today (October 20th). Yay me!

In my opinion, 3-4 days is pretty fast credit.

abrock124

20-10-2005 16:04:02

yeah my referral got 3 day credit too. However i signed up for it the same night and havent gotten credit. I'd still say its a good one to complete

theman2005

20-10-2005 18:35:46

pretty much, you can't get the free $25 walmart giftcard, why? simple. they will mail the form to you to fill out shortly, then you need to return it and have it in their hands BEFORE the 7th day... that's impossible! oh well, its a "quick" offer to complete

though, i still haven't got credit yet, i think its day 3 or 4 right now (

you should receive a confirmation email in about 24hrs... to cancel, meaning you didn't find the service to be useful to you liwink winkli, then you'll have to call that number mentioned on the signup form, by the confirmation email, or just log in and get the number. wink

Cash4Cookies

23-10-2005 19:08:00

I read on the site that you have to be a member for 2 months in order to get the card. So those looking to cancel right away arent in luck here. A better question is when is it going to credit? I have 2 freinds doing it, and no green yet.

theman2005

23-10-2005 22:23:40

7th day here, still no credit.

amanj

24-10-2005 07:05:27

been over 3 days, but no credit yet.

The site claims2-3 days for reciving the credit. Do we need to cancel the offer for reciving the credit?

imateapot

26-10-2005 17:45:28

I got credit in 3-4 days. You do need to be a member for a month in order to get the free gift card. When you call to cancel the program after you get credit, don't let them trick you into getting the gift card.

When I called, the lady was like, "So would you like the $25 Wal-mart gift card?" and I was like,.... "Uuuuh, sure". But what she was really asking was, "Would you like me to charge you 20 bucks so we can send out your free 25 dollar gift card". Then she rambled on for like 5 minutes so I decided to screw it and I ended up refusing the card. D

Becareful when you sign up.
If you do the extra form for the card, it basically says, your going to join two more services, which you don't know about. Even if you cancel with the site you aware of when joining (in my case connections) you are also signing up to 20% percent and shopping essentials. which charged me $14.95 each. I called my bank account and they gave my the phone numbers and so i canceled with them and asked for a refund.

So...in closing..pay the $1, but dont go for the card!!

I sent freepay a message about this.

Has anybody been charged past the free trial for this offer? On the freepay site it says it costs 14.95 to stay on past the trial but i cant find price anywhere on the actual site. I figured paying 14.95 to get a $25 walmart giftcard is an ok deal.....im just hoping thats actually what im going to be charged and not something much more ridiculous like $114.95

theman2005

29-10-2005 16:58:25

if yu don't have the email AND you cancelled that early....... you have a low chance, but since they DID bill you, you can argue that IF credit doesn't come through.

Good luck.......

Yeah, if you read the bottom right pane it says that you are signing up for those when clicking around. Just make sure you jot down those cancellation numbers as well if you decide that you are not satisfied with their service.

See, this is what I did

I bought a 25$ visa gift card from Wachovia (my bank). I've been using gift card to sign up for online things. By the time one of these sites tries to charge me again, there will be no money on the card. So they cancel my account, and, MAX, i lose 25$, but most of the money gets spent on other things. So, it's not 25$ to them.

I certainly hope not. If it is, I'll just call them and cancel myself. But fraud not withstanding, if they charge my card before I call, I don't have to go through the hassle of trying to get a refund.

06-11-2005 19:06:07

You should edit those posts, nimh. Sometimes if you post the wrong info people start taking your referrals away.


that is pretty smart tho. nimh I don't think that's fraud. IMO. especially if you make an effort to do it the right way. and as long as you had a genuine interest in the site....of course.

Nimh

06-11-2005 19:46:25

Taking referrals away? How?

And, in any case, if I like the offer, I'll just switch it over to an actual card where they can bill me. It's just extra protection, in case I get billed without meaning to be.

I mentined something wrong one day and Jake took my xbox referral away.

he actually warned me about saying the c-word. and told me that I "could have a referral taken away." so I appologized and changed my posts

an hour later I logged in and my referral was reversed from green to yellow. bumbed.

I wouldn't worry about it. I'm just saying it's possible.

theman2005

Nimh

07-11-2005 10:26:20

Bah, well, I'm doing stuff I want to try out. DVDs and CDs and stuff. We'll see how it works out, and if I don't like it, I'll cancel it. Isn't that the point? A lot of them are "trials" for a reason. I'm not going to keep doing something I don't like for an iPod. And, as I said, if I like it, I'll keep using it. Simple as that. Someone can't seriously tell me there's something wrong with that.
