Not a Single offer Credited on IDeal Plasmatv4free.com

I did the site, and not a single offer credited, and I signed up May 30th. Kinda bummed, any ideas what I can do to get those credited?

Uh-oh...

Read the stickies in both the DIY forum and the help forum. Basics Use IE, clear cookies / files before every offer, make sure the clicks registered before finishing the offer, etc. Looks like you are familiar with that already so I really have no idea what happened with you.

Ouch.

I signed up July 1st and did all the required offers.

I hope I don't get jipped (

No offense but I'm sure he knows what he's doing 8)

I sure hope you can get this fixed

The only thing I can think of is

-Glitch in i-deals crediting system
or
-You had a firewall on or something else that was blocking all cookies

Thanks guys, I hope it works out too

I signed up around June 12, all my offers credited by Jul 2.

I think the problem is on your end. My friend and I did offers near the end of May too and the majority of the offers credited for the both of us. Also, shouldn't this belong in the original PlasmaTV4Free thread.

I follow these guidelines

http//forum.freeipodguide.com/viewtopic.php?t=41256

I still have IE 6 and only use it for offers. I make sure the cookies load in the folder as well.

This more or less happened to a friend of mine (I spoke on his behalf a long time ago about I Deal's nano site). He did the required offers... none credited, he did several more... none credited. This was within the crediting cycle, but he still received no credits. After sending several PMs to Molly and emails to I Deal CS, it was fixed. Actually, Molly fixed it. Not to get your hopes up, but all is not lost yet. Just contact them.

Wish molly could come and help our man here! )

I'm having the same issue.

I'm praying that perhaps I'm on a 30 day cycle, but odds are I got in the same situation as you. I'm planning on emailing them after the 15th if nothing has shown yet.

At least I know I'm not alone - let me know if you find out anything.

Yah same on my first page none credited and Ive done practically all the offers on that page, and so I don't know. I did two more today hopefully they'll credit before end of July.

you do know that there is a crediting schedule, right?

Not that it matters if you did all the offers on the 1st page. shock

Yeah I know there is a crediting cycle, it's been since May 30th

Yes, I know there is a crediting schedule. I did most of the offers on the first page, and some offers I cannot duplicate because of previous sign up.

^When did you start?

Youre a Pro, I wasnt talking to you in my last post only. wink

I was thinking about doing this site but seems like a lot of people are not getting credited on 20 or 30 days but some are? Any word if something is going on at Ideal?

I emailed, got a standard, "You are in the 28 day crediting cycle." or something like that.

Going to try again after 30 days.

No one should even contact support unless you have been waiting for offers to credit more than 30 days....they won't even look at you unless you have waiting 30 days.

Oh well guess you just lost your cash and wasted your offers, ITs not like i didnt tell everyone to stay away from Plasmatv4free and posted a link to 20 pages of the screwing over people.

I haven't completed this specific site, but if you're implying I-Deal routinely screws people, I'd have to say you're wrong. They pay out far more than they don't, at least in the circles I run in (including here).

Yes, they do have their problems and their technical glitches at times, and yes their Customer Service responsiveness leaves something to be desired (unless you can catch the reps here or at A4F). But they aren't a scam. DOYD had a crediting problem too, and Molly went out of her way to help a lot of us get manually credited and processed.

I've personally had great experiences with I-Deal and am currently working on another of their sites after taking off for several months.

I sure hope hairy can get this situation of his taken care of

I've had great experiences with I-deal too. Got over $4000 worth of stuff from them last year....the offers werent too bad either as I ended up staying with netflix and a few other ones

Playing the same crediting game with me. I'm at the 32 day mark. Several others have complained also (other than on this board.) Since there are so many of us, its time to take our heads out of the sand and figure out what step we need to take to
put pressure on them. They say the problem is ours and they won't manual credit. From other's experiences it seems as though they are now trying to get people to do 20 offers (12 reg and 8 make-up) before approving.

I know the next response will be "you can't pressure Ideal! Ha! Ha!"
Together, though, yes we can.

We need to start a thread for everybody experiencing this problem with Ideal (not just plasmatv4free but the other sites also.) I suggest everybody make screen shots of their status page before they are locked out (expired.) Copy and save the terms. Save all e-mails about offer completion as well as the packaging material the offers were sent in. When they start expiring our accounts we will need to all report the situation at the same time to really draw attention to it. Maybe then we can show a sudden pattern and get a knee-jerk reaction from those people that have power over Ideal, WebClients, etc.

But we need to wait until they expire us because some people have suddenly went approved just before expiration. I think this is a ploy to squeeze more offers out of us...because everyone says "if it doesn't credit do more" Ideal reads this board, and now they know they can do that because we will accept it, so why not try to get a few more offers out of us. I wouldn't be surprised to see some of us start getting a few offers to credit in an attempt to draw us in and get us to complete more replacement offers.

Hi Molly!!!Hi Trish!!!Hi Tom!!!Hi Maggie!!!Hi Shannon!!! All we want is to be treated fairly.

Can somebody post a screenshot of the $800 bose surround sound system on the first page? Thanks!

Well, I've certainly posted my problems here. Maybe we should try A4F ?

I have a couple of days until I hit day 30, then I can let the frustration out.

Well i am talking plasmatv4free when i say the explicitly screw people over, i they had a technical glitch on deckoutyourdeck and hotgasgrill which after contacxting molly and sending my proofs has still to yet get resolved. I have not heard from molly this year and she recieved my information back in november. Out of 4 Ideal sites I have been rewarded on 1. But serious plasmatv4free just dont do it.. DO consumersavingscenter or something, i dont trust the marketlabs division

Both my referral and I already have our TVs.

Ok, I have a quick question - is there any phone contact with i-deal ? Maybe the number in there whois?

(I just reached 31 days)

yes there is, but it leads to an answering machine. i found it back when i got screwed with hotgasgrill (it just stopped showing offers on page one after I did page 3 and then page 2. nobody ever got back to me either. but there was, at least at the time, a phone number. however - useless cry

Ok If you wanna get technical there is a number for every ideal DBA in the privacy policy but it ALWAYS leads a voicemail and you will NEVER get a returned call so thats why we just say there is no number

I knew what you meant manOFice

man...looks like a select few (including myself) aren't going to get credit for our original 12 offers.

I think I might get a head start and start emailing them now to see if I can get this sorted out, is their customer support any good?

Well, no phone number. I'll have to rely on email then.

Thanks for the heads up not to waste my time there.

Don't bug them with e-mail either, it only pisses them off.

how do you know it pisses them off???

Because we've seen some of their responses....

[quote94e9ccc34d="junkie06"]how do you know it pisses them off???[/quote94e9ccc34d]

Ok, don't take my word on it, e-mail them multiple times in a single week and see how helpful they are with you.

I hardly think two emails over the past 40 days is bugging them... and quite honestly, if I'm going to get screwed anyways, I'd rather do it making them angry. -) (hopefully it doesn't come to that).

I agree, especially if you have separate issues/questions. I'm talking more along the lines of

Day 1 "Did you get my forms yet?"

Day 4 "Hey no response, did you get my forms?"

Day 10 "Ok, I see you processed me, when will I get my plasma?"

Day 20 "Some other people online got plasmas, when will mine come?"

That shit will piss them off to no end.

I just wanted to chime in to say I've gone 32 days so far with no crediting... meh.

Wow, thats gay. My 20 days are coming up on thursday or friday so we will see...

Yeah, my 20 days comes up this Saturday.

I doubt anything will happen with my luck lately.

i always find with ideal if something doesnt seem right, you can try emailing them and if they actually read it they are more than helpful.

This is bizarre. I logged in today, and 35 days after I did my first offer it just went green. I've been checking, because they told me to send in my stuff for manual verification.

So far, the first column went green... I did the rest the next day (did it late at night so some would have carried over).

I have no idea if this will end up working fine now, with a very strange credit cycle... but at least I'm a bit hopeful now?

As I understand it, manual verification is an all or nothing, right? So they aren't just verifying my stuff manually?

looks like I am one of the unlucky ones that didn't get credited. I'm way past my 20th day and have 0 credits. I've done DIY sites before and have never had any problem getting at least most of my offers credited. I always use the same computer/browser/etc so I know it wasn't a problem on my end. I'm e-mailing them, good luck to me.

still waiting for an email response...I all ready did 12 offers and if I have to do 12 more it will just be a waste...this is so dumb.

And really weird. I just logged in today, 40 days past when I signed up, and everything is approved.

But when I tried to redeem the Television, it said my registration was expired.

I hope I get a response from support to sort this out. Every time I get excited it might actually be working, something new crops up. It's frustrating.

On the other hand, for those waiting... for some reason, I did get credit, just took twice as long as it should have ?

Very odd but congrats, just contact them...you'll have to be manually processed.

How about the OP's status? How is he doing?

awesome, so at about 40 days, all your offers credited...im currently at day 37, so I'll see what happens.

Their T.O.S. states you will have to wait up to 6 weeks (45 days) to receive credit. Of course, usually it's not that long, but on sites like these with low requirements for a big prize they usually extend the crediting wait schedule longer.

benedict keep me updated on your status, today was day 40 for me and still 0 credits.

40th day and still at the same 3/12 offers credited. Gonna wait 2 more days + 1 to be safe then I'll start doing replacements.

dang, after reading this. makes me go away from that site. i was gonna start, i want a plasma!! cry

I'm 6/12 credited. I only have about 7 days left I think (....I've completed a total of 21 offers on the site already and 6 credited. That's like 28% successfully crediting.

21 offers !?!? Woah, you should have cut your losses and ran -/

You could email and ask to be manually credited, but you're almost to the point you should have bought the TV shock

They won't manually credit you most likely and at 21 offers...the cost of 21 offers is not the cost of 2000$

TV isn't worth $2000, and I know I was exaggerating the cost, but that's a huge number of offers to do (with more needed). Some of them have to be getting expensive...

I was saying that a bit tongue-in-cheek, but best of luck to benedict.
