I just came out of a meeting.

We will be shipping out a fixed amount of product every week going forward.

We are also beginning to approve accounts again - which combined with the above statement means that the situation at Freepay is improving step by step.

Great news.

What does fixed amount of product mean?

1. By total value of products?
2. By time? People who were approved after a certain date.

Yes, immediately. There should be some changes evident to certain people already with account approvals. I assume that shipments will also begin this week as promised.

ummm two things that shoulda have been addressed lonnnng ago, hopefully answered at your meeting

pcs website update?

new way to get referrals?

thanks for the update, though you should have also updated us telling us that you were going to stop approving accounts, but i guess it's too late for that.

The site update is late for a whole list of reasons.

There is no brand new way to get referrals. I have no idea why this promise was made - I had no part in it.

As for the stopping of account approvals, I didn't know about that until the end of last week when we were beginning to approve them again already.

jeff7602

17-04-2006 19:31:09

To me it seems that since they stopped approving accounts for a while they should give us that much more time. If they took 3 weeks off, we should get an additional 3 weeks. I am currently waiting for approval and if a couple of people get dq'd and I run out of time, it's freepay's fault for taking a break! 2-3 weeks can be a big deal as we approach May 31st, and I think we should get back the time they took off.

Very valid point I never thought of and they should really consider doing this, time is very valuable in the current situation.

I really hope something good is going to come out of this...I've been waiting almost 8 weeks for approval on PremiumiPods and almost waiting 5 weeks for credit on psps....Damn I hope freepay will become what they used to be again x

Rewman

17-04-2006 21:02:33

I know same here, I used to be a freepay fan boy to no end....but now....it's hard to defend them after 5 weeks of sitting and waiting.

I just want to get my PSP, I've wanted one for so long...
And I'm getting knee surgery on Wed...I wanted to have that PSP before that so at least I could play some games while I'm stuck in my room...

SUCKS!

bjbailey

18-04-2006 09:03:18

I haven't got approval for my iPod yet. I received confirmation that they received my form on the 6th....... so, I am sure I still have a while. I hope with all of the "speed up" talk that things will start going better.

All of my referrals and "could be referrals" are getting even more skeptical about the whole freepay thing.

I can't wait to get the iPod and prove to them that it isn't a scam.

sevenvii

18-04-2006 09:39:09

Yeah I finally placed my 1 Gb shuffle order on Thrusday assuming that they would not replace it with the 1 Gb nano anytime soon. I figured I would never see it, or possibly in a month or 2....but it was at my desk on Tuesday. Granted, it was approved before the new system, but at least they got that right.

Hopefully things will start heading back in the right direction.

Fucking a man. Freepay is getting worst and worst as the days pass. I will not sign up for another site until they get their shit together. 4 items processing for the last 4 months with no help from support. They can't even update members that have been waiting for the xbox360 for almost 10 months now. ( very sad to see a company that was so good. I guess that is what we all get.
