I had about 4 of my friends sign up 24 - 48 hours ago and they all did the same one, video professor. Only ONE outa of the 4 has gone green, the other still say they haven't completed an offer. Anyone else have this? I realize it can take awhile, but I did video professor as did they all. Mine and one others was verified really fast, within 2 - 3 hours while the rest are still just yellow =| I know they did it cause I bribed them with money in an MMO for it D

also this is my first time doing one of these referral things, is it common to take this long?

When I did Video Professor for my IPOD, it went green instantly. Like really, Instantly.

But I don'tk now. Two of my referrals for PSP have done Traveler's Advantage and the Appera Trial. Both claim to offer Instant Credit, but I haven't seen the yellows gone green yet and today is the 2nd day. Hopefully, those two will go green this weekend.

ya my cousins went instantly, mine took bout 2 hours, the rest have been between 24 - 48 hours and still nothing. I've even seen screen shots of their credit card statements that show it's already been charged, yet haven't recieved credit for it on the site yet.

25-02-2005 14:41:37

some just take a while, BTW Gratis gets kind of suspicious when you do the same offer on all of your refferals

25-02-2005 14:50:44

Well, 1 is my cousin(went green), my brother(not green yet), childhood friend(not green yet), another friend (not green yet). The reason I told them to do Video Professor is cause they only charged me ONE dollar. Why would I have them do anything else? 1 fricking US Dollar for Video Professor and me and my cousin got verified. We're pretty much going in a circle I have another friend doing it for me today and that'll be 5. We're just gona do it so everyone gets something. We pulled things outa a hat, I got PSP lucky me D

ah well mine was a 1 dollar charge, my friends was a 3 dollar charge. my other friend was a 1 dollar charge. so i donno =| still only ONE has gone thru

i also got some people to all do video professor and travelers advantage
only 1 out of like 6 have gone green. some have been waiting 3 days already

pavilion

25-02-2005 23:08:17

Has anybody received credit for Traveler's Advantage? One of mines did that and it's been 2 days, nothing so far. I don't think it went through.

kaymin

25-02-2005 23:10:17

I did it yesterday and nothing so far

bfdd

25-02-2005 23:11:41

Ok this is what I found out, I have 3 referrers who did Video Professor, the most recent I THOUGHT did it but turns out he did stamps.com. 1 out of 3 Video Professors is green, the most recent (12 hours before the other two) the stamps.com did it 1 hour after my green Video Professor and he's still yellow, I guess we'll see what it's like on Monday if it's still yellow I'll have them contact gratis

pavilion

25-02-2005 23:12:04

Ok, I guess there's still hope. It would of been sad if it didn't go through and they would have to do another offer.

bfdd

25-02-2005 23:14:37

Well seeing as the other two video professor ones have already had their cc charged 1 - 3 dollars I would throw a fit about it.

TheFellatingBeefalo

26-02-2005 13:02:17

Strangely enough, none of my 10 yellows have gone green yet, and I know at least 5 have done their offers (and not all the same ones, either).

I wonder if Gratis is backed up a bit?

kaymin

26-02-2005 13:04:36

its the offesr getting backed up not Gratis, cuz I did some offers that got instant credit on freepsps just a few days ago

J4320

26-02-2005 13:07:14

When did this site open?

kaymin

a week or two ago i can't remember lol

J4320

26-02-2005 13:10:35

Hmm... Cool. I just started today. Do you think I can make the shipment if I hurry up?

that can't be because two of my 4 signed up shortly after i did, they're still
yellow they did video professor like me. mine only took 2 hours and i was green. then the third did it 12 hrs after the first two his was green INSTANTLY he did video professor, the 4th he did stamps.com and nothing still... so i donno what the fucks up =\ if they're not green by monday ima email gratis

Man, still waiting for two yellows to turn green! Supposedly, one of them did Traveler's Advantage and the other one did Complete Home. So far, NOTHING and it's been 3 Days.

pavilion

26-02-2005 21:21:06

I am getting sooo impateitn on an offer that was suppose to be "Instant Credit" but it's been 3 days and still nothing. I'm starting to worry that it might have not went through and my referrals might need to do another offer or something. Blah

I did Travelers on Friday and credit went through today, 3 days later

pavilion

27-02-2005 16:17:18

I checked. Still yellow. I'm thinking it didn't go through. I think it's because of how they did it. He used Mozilla, but then I told him to use IE, so he copied the link from Mozilla and copied it to IE. errrr

kaymin

27-02-2005 16:19:28

thats it, becuase it didn't get to download the cookies from the free site

bfdd

27-02-2005 19:20:15

everyone i know has cookies on

kaymin

27-02-2005 19:22:01

but like if he was already signing up and was on the offers site and no longer on the gratis site IE wouldn't have gotten the cookie

Doh004

27-02-2005 19:29:28

Another one just went through. Waiting for three others to ;)

bfdd

27-02-2005 19:54:47

we all use firefox... we all have cookies on, i walked em thru it if they needed help, they've all been charged... so... if they don't go green i guess in 15 days. we'll contact gratis

bfdd

28-02-2005 13:19:36

Ok, this sucks like 4 or 5 of the things I traded people for, I'm already green on today yet still only one of my refs is green on this site =(!

PodTopia

28-02-2005 13:26:21

It sucks for me too. I should have had all greens by Friday, but none are turning!!!

xavier

28-02-2005 20:05:21

I really do think gratis is backed up, no refs for any of my gratis sites have gone green, and I'm well aware of which did their offers

I just got a green for the PSP. He did The Literary Guild and like 20 seconds after he completed it, he went green. w00t!

pavilion

28-02-2005 21:32:17

Literacy Guild is the only one that appears to be instant. All the other ones are just lagging. I'm stil lwaiting for two yellows to turn green who did Appera and Travelr's Advantage. Both claimed to give you instant credit, but it's been 4 days for me. Nothing.

bfdd

01-03-2005 07:39:17

I did appera for a trade and it went green for me already... i did it friday night.

Stroid

01-03-2005 07:41:20

i have 2 people that still arent green and its been a week i guess i must wait longer

PodTopia

01-03-2005 10:30:34

It's been 5 days since I SHOULD have completed FreeMiniMacs and FreePSPs (I have screenshots from everyone) and they still haven't turned green. I'm also waiting for credit for someone on notebooks4free and mp3players4free (both would be my last, for my $1000 and my H320!!!).

Zach

PodTopia

01-03-2005 13:37:55

CREDIT HAS BEEN RECEIVED FOR SOMEONE ON MY FREEPSPS! It seems as if Gratis is recovering...

dcrainmaker

01-03-2005 13:49:33

FWIW, I seem to be experiencing the same thing. none of my gaming systems have gone green and it's been several days.

PodTopia

01-03-2005 13:55:22

Yes, it appears there's about a 3-4 day lag. My referral completed an instant offer (I believe it was Appeara) and didn't get credit until today. I guess that means the rest of mine won't green until tomorrow or the rest of the week.

pavilion

01-03-2005 14:16:50

Still nothing for me.
One of my referrals did Complete Home and the other did Traveler's Advantage, last Thursday, I believe.

Today is March 1. NOTHING. Argh. I would of been done already.

TheFellatingBeefalo

01-03-2005 14:57:20

No movement here, either.

Gratis has what, 9 employees? They have to be swamped to the gills with offers considering how closely they launched the Shuffle, Mac Mini, and PSP sites together

PodTopia

01-03-2005 15:04:29

Yes, that's a good observation. Also note that I received credit for someone who did an offer on Wednesday today, meaning that I should receive credit for all of the Thursday offers tomorrow and so on if they continue this trend.

bfdd

01-03-2005 17:30:05

well i completed some offers on other gratis sites, after i the people who signed up under me did... and i've already gotten credit =\

Tib

01-03-2005 17:33:13

I JUST HATE THE WAITING, I have 6 greens and i did TA and Appera whitening last week just trying to get to be able to request approval but nothing yet...i'm just waiting and waiting for mine to turn green...it's killing me

bfdd

03-03-2005 10:00:49

still no greens...

PodTopia

03-03-2005 12:51:23

I missed the fucking (excuse the language) FreeMiniMacs STV date because of offer credit!!!!!!!!

Doh004

03-03-2005 13:36:40

Grrrr one more green who I know did it... and my offer too needs to go green >.<

bfdd

03-03-2005 16:12:17

I know somethings wrong, cause I've gone green on like 3 or 4 other gratis sites and i signed up on those AFTER my referrals did theirs.... so ima wait the 15 days and if they're still yellow ima call/email gratis =|

Stroid

03-03-2005 16:16:28

dont call gratis they will be less likely to help you...they dont post a number to call so the method they want you to use is email trust me they wont be happy if you call

PodTopia

03-03-2005 16:21:21

Some people on GearLive have started getting credit, but I have not.

kaymin

03-03-2005 16:28:52

ya, i still don't have either credit from two people on saturday

TheFellatingBeefalo

04-03-2005 08:29:40

Starting to get a little movement... just had one go green for the Mac Mini -- problem is, the mac mini's already approved and STV. ;) ICFreePod is funny like that, telling me things I don't need to know.

bfdd

04-03-2005 11:15:59

nope.. 9 days now =| still 1g 4y =\

TheFellatingBeefalo

04-03-2005 11:46:23

FYI, I can tell you that the pending that just turned green a couple of hours ago had to have joined up before the 16th of Feb, if that's any indicator. (Or it could be just that the person took forever. I doubt that somewhat though.) I only had one pending that joined post-Feb 16th, and that person decided not to do an offer after all.

bfdd

05-03-2005 13:15:08

another one FINALLY went green =\

kaymin

05-03-2005 13:17:01

I still haven't gotten one who supposedly went saturday, a week later and still nothing

I think they're starting to catch up. Someone who did PSPs and did GamingSystems for me last week (Monday) got credit today for instant offers.

NONE of mine have gone green yet for FreePSPs. Out of 15.

Something's definitely not right here.

Archon810

14-03-2005 15:13:56

got a green today for a referral on freeipods.com (and also one for ipodshuffles4free.com).
freepsps.com hasn't given me my own credit in about a week now.

CooLJoE

14-03-2005 20:39:09

I haven't had too much trouble with my referrals on FreePSPs. Only one person has been yellow for a long amount of time, but I'm not sure if he simply did one of the long offers.

I had someone signup under me late last night. They chose the blockbuster offer and it green'd for me today.

I'm just dyin cuz I only need 1 more green.

Archon810

17-03-2005 00:09:04

finally greened today for nethome on freepsps.com. took 8 days.

CooLJoE

18-03-2005 07:20:27

Now I have TWO yellows waiting to go green. Only need one, but both are sitting in the yellow state. VERY annoying. I wish they'd just go green already.
