submitted for approval monday - results?

Has anyone else submitted their referrals for approval this week?

I did on Monday, and am still waiting to hear. frustrating, to say the least.

Well it says "5 business days" so frustrating after 3 days is a bit too much) Don't worry, you will probably get approved if you haven't cheated.

Yeah, i guess frustrated is not the word. Just the unknown void that is the Gratis approval process is never a fun thing to wait out. It's easy to lose perspective, even when you're waiting for a free gift.

I was approved in 2 days WOOO. Wonder when I'll go STV.

collateral,

When did you submit your referrals? When did you actually go through? Congratulations, hope I'm next... ?

Where did you guys get yours? I'll pay for refs....

Getting referrals is like poop.

Getting referrals is like poop, as in, it's so easy, it's like they're just coming out of your ass when you feel the need to get some?

LOL

Or maybe it's hard to do or it's a "shitty" process because it's so impossible.

Somewhere between both of those. It takes a lot of "pushing" to get a referral also. x HHMMMMMMMM ERRRRRRRR ARRRRRRR! POP, there's my referral.

Has anybody that has requested approval on a gaming system since Monday, the 17th received approval? I am still waiting here...

I requested approval the day before, sunday, and i got approved on friday

whoops, this is wrong forum..lol i thought i was in freeipodshuffle..cancel what i said P

Yes... I've been submitted for approval since Wednesday last week. I hope they get around to me soon.

I submitted for approval on Wednesday last week too...hopefully tomorrow will be the magic day! lol

I submitted on Monday the 17th - and still nothing yet either... certainly been more than 5 business days. I'm glad there's others it seems to be taking awhile for as well.

Yea, this is getting slightly frustrating, but as long as I know threes others out there in the same spot as me, I'm fine with it.

yeah, for some reason it feels less frustrating to know that its not just you who is waiting. i still am. let me know if any of you guys get lucky!

liwistlesli It will go threw anyday now.. i'm sure..

have you posted a question to customer service yet about the approval? i haven't yet and am wondering when it will be necessary

I'm going to give them a day or more or so...

I submitted approval this morning. I actually have 6 referrals lishrugsli .

How useless....

-Hoping to get the XBOX by the end of March.-

Hmmm, nothing today, I think I'll till friday before using the customer service.

if you submit on friday, i will as well. maybe more than one complaint will call it to their attention faster.

Yeh ive been waiting sine the 20th so its only been 7 days but stil, i want my DS! licriesli

Approved today, Thursday the 27th, after submitting for approval Monday the 17th!

Hope this works out for everyone else!

good to hear that someone finally got approved... hopefully mine will go through today too!!!

I'm still waiting myself, hopefully they are doing everyone today...

still waiting myself but good to hear it finally went through for you.

I'm very very close to emailing them, but its only been 1 day over 5 biseness days, so I'll give them till the end of the day I guess before I complain P.

you still havent gotten it imperialhunter? I requested approval on wednesday, and got approved thursday!

I just submitted a customer service question about the delayed approval (mine was initially submitted for approval 1/17 and its now been 9 business days). Gratis responded quickly with

"Thank you for your patience in this matter. We are currently backed up with order approvals, we assure you that your account will be looked at as soon as possible."

So, it looks like they'll get to them... Hmm.

Regardless of when they get to them though - I'm in for an XBOX and NO online retailers seem to have any stock of the basic bundle right now. Ever since the holiday bundle sold out, there hasn't been a new bundle to hit the streets. So, even if they did approve the account, I think it'll just sit in processing for a good long time until stock eventually comes back in of the XBOX. I wonder what Microsoft is doing not getting out a new bundle? If they were going to release a refresh (like PS2 with a slimmer design or something) it would have been announced at CES. And the next generation XBOX probably won't come out until 2006 (although some like to speculate Nov 2005). So, what gives - what's with the shortage. I'm going to have to suffer through yet another long delayed fulfillment of a Gratis product... I had to wait over 2 months for my iPod to finally arrive...

prolly MS underestimated holiday season or something. Yeah Xbox 2 wont hit till 2006, so I doubt it has anything to do with that. Good thing sony and PS2 are available P

Well, I didn't get aproved this week, hopefully next week I will, this is starting to get really frusterating P.

<--still not approved....over 10 day wait now =(

still waiting too - but again, no one that's been approved has actually had theirs shipped yet - so its either wait here, or wait there... Still, I'd prefer to be waiting at STV... but I can understand Gratis not wanting to take the time/resources to approve us if its a futile effort and they could just as soon do it later and we'd still get our XBOX's at the same time.

XBOX's are back in stock... I'm shipped..

Finally went approved today - only took 3 weeks!!!
