there old practices were tight enough. its so hard explaining to people all the rules. Combine that with this new time limit. forget about it.

I sent mine on friday, and when I came home i was approved. Feeling that it was a waste speneding that money for express ship.

I'm in the same boat. I sent mine out on Friday and 4 hours later my giftcard order was sent to vendor. I'm guessing I blew $4+ for nothing...

hopefully mine will be approved in the next few days too, I hit the approve butotn a day before the change, and 1 of my 5 turned grey so I had to get another ref. Got one quick and sent the form monday. I hope it gets approved quickly, I've been jonesing to play that damn psp

I wouldn't say so. Better to pay the extra cash to make sure it gets there than to not pay and have it get lost.

a little extra peace of mind is worth the price of postage to me

i didnt pay the extra 4 bucks and i am also from CA SF actaully, so its actually really far from dc, but somehow mine sneaked in there quickly

09-03-2006 08:50:58

They aren't approvin' because they are having problems with the MusicNow offer, they have slilililoads of CSR questions to answer cause of their new TOS, unfixable(for months) "Bugs" are showing up for users of all their sites in many different variations of phrasing, they are also are having problems finding any ipods of any kind and probably over 3000 people waiting on 10 months of 360s that they completed and are waiting for. And all this while they have piles of Approval forms stacking up. Just my observation of whats going on.

So rather than have 20 different threads about the same things use the search function.

I also have to add...why don't we all just give up on their sites, forget about them and maybe in a year an ipod /camera/360 might show up at our door. No use coming here day to day to find out they're going further downhill.
Go ahead Mods, defend freepay. I'd give up if I were you.
It's obvious the place is not doing tooo well.

I dont know if they got the form, because it still says Send in the form! however two of my refs went grey and I got the message that they weren't unique users. However I still have 8/8 green with one pending but do I need to send in a new form - did they get the other one - whats going on lisighli

Hopefully this tracking information will help you guys out (i sent it certified with a return receipt)

Your item was sent at 400 pm on March 08, 2006 from SALT LAKE CITY, UT 84117.

Your item was delivered at 406 pm on March 10, 2006 in WASHINGTON, DC 20044.

I checked today on my freepay premium ipods account and it still has the info to download, print, and send the approval form. This leads me to beleive that it will only change when we are either approved, lose greens, or put on hold.

I guess ill just have to [quote6040bd5861]Check this page regularly to see the result of your approval request[/quote6040bd5861] until I get approved.

I sent mine Thursday from Indiana and finally got there today.....
Hopefully a quick approval.

stagim

14-03-2006 07:54:54

I don't know if you are going to get a quick approval, I think a ton of these were mailed in right away so you probably have a huge line in front of you. I mailed 2 in on 3/3 and am still waiting.

St00pid

14-03-2006 08:44:59

Mailed mine in on March 7, been about a week now. O

egyptianruin

14-03-2006 09:35:18

LOL I mailed two on March 2, 2006 and then another yesterday evening because 2 of my referrals were DQ'd - which I think means they checked my account but did not approve me - which leaves me very confused - I still had 9 out of 8 referrals to qualify (with the 2 DQ'd) but nope nothing is said about my form - except to mail it in still. So did they check my account or didn't they - CS hasn't responded to my inquiry.

VrExe

15-03-2006 09:31:03

It looks like they received mine yesterday.

Let's see how fast the approval really is. I doubt it will be faster than the old way because it took 1 week alone just to get the form to Freepay (

I would assume they put that there for worst case senerios, but don't think it will take them a month to process these. I had one that was approved in a week and am waiting for 3 more that have all taken 2 weeks now. Anyone else out there get approved recently?

I wouldn't think that Jake would give out anything other than worst case scenarios. If Jake says it'll only take a week, someone is gonna bookmark that thread, and refer to it if it actually takes 3 weeks for some reason.

stagim

17-03-2006 08:27:21

I understand jake can't say what the best situation would be or everyone would be harrasing him. Has anyone been approved in the last 2 weeks though? Just curious what the real turnaround time is.

Ditto (mine on 3/2).

That's 18 days eroded from the 90-day window that I am powerless to do anything about. Each day that I have to wait chips off another day. Couple that with up to 30-45 days for manual credits (the norm for me), and I fail to see how anybody can possibly finish a site as of the new policy. Even the 5 referral sites.

[i5558e1c351]That doesn't even take into account referral disqualifications...[/i5558e1c351]
