Has anyone done this offer? If so, how long did it take to credit? I've been waiting over a week now.

Well, my ref did this for me for an iPod Shuffle.
They signed up for the offer on Tuesday, and the credit went through the next day, on Wednesday.
So it seems to be ok...at least for me. I hope yours goes through soon ragefu.
So yeah, the credit only took one day, but I guess I'll have to wait and see if she gets the magazines...and that they really only charge her $29.

Did you receive any email confirmation of the transaction? My sister took this offer and have not yet received credit, and also did not receive an email confirmation - even though they did charge her. So I'm wondering if you need to request manual credit what proof can you send FreePay?

Yep, I never got an email, but the $29 is on my bank statement. How long do I have to wait before I should notify freepay to get it credited?

15 days from complition
Kinda sucks, i've had to do it on a lot of offers with freepay, [i05cfc17af7]but[/i05cfc17af7] they always get credited in the end for me. I'm a little weary because I didn't even get a conformation email here though.
I tried calling their number, but they don't answer. I think its just an answering machine.

that sucks. I wish Freepay would tell you how many days it will take to credit like Trainn does.

So how do you request manual credit from Freepay if they don't send a receipt in email? My sister, who took the offer, can of course supply the email address that was used.

i was in the same boat, received info from Jake yesterday to fax in my bank statement showing the offer and that they would credit me.

I put in a support request on this one, they said that you need to fax in some other proof that the offer was taken. I would suggest to anyone contemplating this offer NOT to take it, simply because the added aggravation of proving that you took an offer, since they don't email a confirmation letter.
Whether or not I will eventually get credit is another story.

Same here. I would not recommend anyone to do the magazineburst offer. It's one big headache. Why is the offer there, if you have to jump through hoops to get the credit? Isn't there a freepay rep here that can answer that?
They closed my ticket and said that I need to fax them a receipt, bank statement, or some other proof that I completed the offer. I'm starting to wonder if magazine burst was a scam as I have not received anything from them since the offer, but they did draft the $29.00 from my bank account.
Please choose another offer on the freepay sites.

Hmm, I don't think so. Hope they do send out the 6 magazine subscriptions at least.

Interesting, well I'm happy for you. My sister, who signed up for the offer, had to fax in her statement to get credit, and she said that it just went green (took a day)..so eventually you can get credit, and if the instant credit works it would be a good offer to take. Much easier though if they at least send a confirmation email. And I hope she gets the mags that she ordered.

I faxed my bank statement this morning. I also pm'd Jake to let him know about it. Hopefully it'll go green soon.

I got credit instantly today.
Browser - IE6, no popup blocker
Method of payment - Mastercard
Also, I used all the same details that I did on the site I was doing. I hope that helps anybody in the future.

I just noticed this pop up on my freepay offers list and thought it might be good to try since I recently ran out of some of my magazine subs. I checked ratetheoffers and it has a good rating on there too so all looked good until I checked here. damn, guess I'll stay away.

I just completed this offer, and the site's details are VERY misleading. It says nice and big that it's $27, and other fees per magazine may apply. What isn't in there, is that the other fees may lead up to $94! My card was charged $121.22. I would recommend staying AWAY from that offer.
