I've been real pissed off about the whole way they've handled sending out the Ipods so I wrote them an email. Got a great email back.

Guys, what is the deal? I've waited almost two months now for my Ipod. That's just ridiculous. The fact that STV dates after mine have shipped before is just poor business practice. I've decided I won't suggest your service to anyone else after this disaster.

Did anyone else laugh like nothing else when reading this? If freeipods were to change from thier auto-replies I think they would stop for a spell check.

what's with the typos? how come they're in such a hurry now?

and using real people to answer customers? what's wrong?

Now I'm worried.

Actually when I finally got a human response when I was taken off of hold there were misspellings as well. Although if it is a hoax it's pretty mean.... We can at least hope to see our ipods soon.

Why the fuck would I make that up? Screw you if you think I'm lying.

It sounds pretty believable to me. Or at least, if that message was a hoax, then the entire thing lidefinitelyli is.

Dude, I've waited like all of you. Check my posts. I actually got a written response from the bastards. I guess you just have to threaten them a bit. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow will be our day guys.

I believe you Treydawg....this could be the week, but if it's not, you may want to invest in some football pads and helmet...it will be your only defense against the public stoning that would ensue.

We, the 11/23 STVs, are a feisty group already pushed to the limit.


BEWARE!

If you are telling the truth (and, admittedly that is very possible), then gratis once again shows us poor customer service.

I'm cranky whenever I start talking about the iPods. I would say I didn't mean to offend...but that would be a lie.

If you are lying- I hate you.

If you are telling the truth- Sounds like usual gratis lies to me.

All in all, someone's lying. So I can take the word of a forum user I don't know, or a company I do know that will send us an iPod in 60 years.

You've got my vote over gratis.

As much as I place hope in things and based on someone else's comment about misspellings, I certainly wish they'll keep their word on this one.

Would be nice to actually get the iPod before the end of the year. Waiting 3 months for a "free" iPod is a bit long. I've gotten CompUSA rebates sooner.

Still haven't gone shipped. I hope it's tonight.

02-12-2004 12:31:39

I've been hoping that for the past 50 or so nights.

02-12-2004 12:47:04

yeah, the fact that no one has received on this week really bothers me...

hmmm......lotsa holds, few ppl shipped....lower cash offers....sounds to me like if FIP doesnt ship within the next two weeks, expect them to flee with ur refs. ;) hehe...j/k.....im going to do it, but Im going to just ask for the check....no way they can screw that up right? just mail it. and besides, too hard to sell/trade in IPOD nowadays for money. There isnt really a shortage of Ipods like the reports of 1 month ago said. Went to a new comp store (Fry's) and they are like piled on top of each other in the corner. GL with all you FIpers. Im riding Offercentric all the way. especially with DS site out now. Do u think Gratis will have a psp site?

Well I'm an ass.

I just moved over to shipped from TN.

I am very sorry to have accused you of lying.
I was wrong, you were right.
Have some karma.
