Well seems like I won't be getting a rolex after all, lol.

So I doubted this sites legitimacy from the begining since no OOD.

It took me doing almost every offer to get my 8 greens.

Finally got all my greens and had to have friend do all but 3 offers to get his 8 greens.

So went to print my voucher and got a 404 page error. Went back and finally got voucher with bold print on it "this is a re-print and not valid". So i emailed the customer support and got form reply (which had nothing to do with my question).

It took 101 emails before I finally got an answer, they say they modified my account so I could send in the re-print.

Well waited a week for them to update my info on the site.

Loged in today to see I was DQed as well as my friend.

Here is what both of our accounts said

[quotef4e2072913]You have been disqualified from this offer because you have violated the following rule from our terms and conditions

You must provide valid and truthful contact information including name, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, gender and date of birth to FreeLuxuryWatch.com.

[/quotef4e2072913]

Which is total BS, me and friend used all current info. Nothing deviated. Me and friend spent more time at the post office sending back samples then completing offers.

Total crock!

No rolex for me, lol.

On a side note, this is the 2nd site of Red Turtle that failed to send me my gift. I also did a plasma one, where they refused to credit me on several offers until after the 60 day time limit. They were nice enough to credit me 20 days later though.

So all in all I wasted about $400 on 2 of these sites.

Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but don't their (offers you sign up for) privacy policies state that they won't give or sell your information to anyone without your consent or if asked by the authorities?

To me it sounds like Red Turtle know the information that you used when you did offers.

I would definitely hold off on puting much into i-deal direct because they have been DQ'ing many with the recent hike in their completions I am sure.

Has anyone been DQ'ed after sending their forms in and being processed?

Do we know of anyone credible who has actually received anything from I-Deal recently. I have a hard time believing they are going to send me my $2900 Dell Plasma TV if they are dqing people who signed up for a Rolex. Even though, I followed the T&C straight as can be and have not even cancelled a single offer that I signed up for.

Gigante keep us posted with your progress

I think kevxross was the first to complete the plasma site. After him I and a few others are the next to have sent their certs at the end of feb. When we find out more about our orders believe me you will find out.

Gigante

No the DQs have happened in the time between printing and sending the certs, and getting the "Your account has been approved - please wait 6-8 weeks for your gift" email. As far as I know, no one has gotten DQ'd after being approved (the email from them).

I think he's talking about people who were put on hold.

in my account status.
They were all green, got email to get voucher.
Printed voucher.
Sent in registered mail.
week later they DQed all my greens and says read bottom for explanation. Then got that bogus reason.


Now not going to say this site is a scam. I am sure they send a few people items. But honestly with no OOD, and only 8 offers. They have to DQ a lot of people to stay in biz.

So just hope your 1 out of 10 that get an item and not DQed.

Didnt wanna keep the quotes going on.

Big difference between yfdirect and red turtle.

YF owns and affiliate company that tons of site suse. So they have income coming in besides there own.

Red turtle doesnt.


There are about 100 differences, not going to go into it though. If you want you can do all the turtle sites.
