I think once you get DQ'd on one I-Deal site, you should avoid all I-Deal sites. Can somebody confirm this?

Not true. There is nothing wrong with IDEAL when you do things right. If I were you, I would jsut email them after you sign up and make sure that you are okay to pursue the site. If they say yes, then go ahead.

What DBA did you get DQ'ed on? What was the DQ for?

Yes. If they ask for a W9, you won't get the gift if you don't send it. I-Deal always asks for W9's and (AFAIK) always mails 1099-MISC forms.

They have been sending $640. Always send a W9 if they ask for it.

yes do that. Usually people that email them regarding the different email addy will get permission to pursue the site. You just have to make them aware of it though

bruman

18-02-2008 13:23:38

I-deals redemption is coded to always ask you for a W9 form... even if you do a $50 site or whatever.

8 offers for $640. It's just kind of a joke since RyanG and I started it on the same day. Who's going to get their stuff first?

Aw, I really wanna do it even though I quit Ideal...
They actually have offers I've never done, and I wanna join the Library of America....

maverik

19-02-2008 14:08:06

My thoughts exactly. Make sure the sites are fully published. Or you could find yourself dq'd w/a bunch of wasted offers. Though I would suggest locking in on a few of those floating 6 offer $500 check sites.

congrats

i had signed up hoping for the 640 check, but would not complain over a new ps3 and madden.

i don't keep up much on ps3 news, aren't they discontinuing one model (the one that is backwards compatible) and dropping the price on another? i'm not trying to start a fanboy/360 war.

also, i just checked bestbuy.com and the 40GB is going for $399.

If these last three don't credit I'm not gonna waste anymore offers to do it. They obviously do this on purpose to either get you to give up or do more offers. More offers=$$$$. Do replacements usually credit though?

I just said that because people have been reporting getting DQ'd and they aren't sure why. In the past i-deal hasn't enforced this rule and it is unknown if they are now. I'm just saying it's in their TOS. A year ago I did multiple scholastic offers on the same site without problem but they seem to be getting more strict now so I don't risk it. It's all theorizing right now... assuming i-deal isn't just randomly DQing people I'm not sure exactly what rule people are breaking, but that is just one idea that may or not be what it is.

I-Deal has changed their terms in the past, or have been very lax about enforcing their own terms, so take this with a grain of salt. But back when I was doing them regularly their policy was that ALL offers were available provided you weren't duplicating the lisameli offer. Even if two offers were from the same company (despite what their terms say). I had this not only verified by an I-Deal rep, but after doing so I completed I-Deal sites using offers from the same company, and was not DQ'd.

That said, if you're the least bit concerned, open up a support ticket and ask about the specific offers you're interested in.

You have to expect the unexpected with I-deal. Just because some people got their gifts 10 days after being processed doesn't mean you will.

They don't respond to emails there is no number to call them so what could they possibly be doing all day beside sending people one word responses or not responding at all?

Crap like this really pisses me off.

Which company sponsored this site, so I can stay as far away from them as possible.

To be fair, i've been very lucky that someone has been reading my e-mails and responding to them. I haven't received the response i'm looking for, but in the short run i'll take it compared to not getting anything back at all.

Between my e-mails, phone calls, faxes and the certified letters i've peppered them with, i'm probably not their favorite person right now. But it is (was) a $700 monitor so I just can't toss it and say 'oh well'.

[quoted50962f5a5="ashilef"][quoted50962f5a5="DRay9911"]exactly.

these are the responses i've received Monday and today

[quoted50962f5a5]Mar 17, 2008 1103 AM

According to the head of our fulfillment team

"We are not responsible for the repair or replacement of damaged or
defective products. Please contact the relevant vendor for questions about damaged or defective products."[/quoted50962f5a5]

I have been VERY clear that i'm not looking for i-deal to repair/replace the monitor, but I need i-deal's help with Dell since they won't budge because I don't have any information on the actual purchase.

When I asked if someone was going to help me because I hadn't heard from them for two days, I received this

[quoted50962f5a5]Mar 19, 2008 946 AM
No.[/quoted50962f5a5]

When I pressed them for an actual reason

[quoted50962f5a5]Mar 19, 2008 1053 AM
You had the monitor for a year; we are not responsible for the condition of the item. This is stated in our terms and conditions.[/quoted50962f5a5]

6-8 weeks is the time it took to get my check from when I was confirmed in December. I wouldn't worry about it until after the 8 weeks. I don't understand why people are getting upset about this, at least it's not like 6 months like Brandarama.

I think the reason why ppl are so annoyed is because there is no consistency. They get excited (like me) when they hear that someone got their gift a little after a week of being processed, so they kinda expect the same thing. But of course that doesn't happen..oh well whatever I'm over it

DRay9911

27-03-2008 12:07:17

i-deal has always been considered inconsistently consistent.

but when the checks/items arrive, they arrive in bunches. you can't compare the timeframe from one bunch to the timeframe of another bunch.

and for anyone lurking i didn't receive a response about the monitor. i sent the dell link, is anyone working on it? if i don't hear from you, i'll send another e-mail in the morning. at that point, it will be 3 days.

Welllllllllll......
I took a chance on I-Deal one more time despite their track record 'cause I really wanted a ps3 and they had offers that I hadn't done before (including the Library of America one which is really neat!)...
But they've had my forms for weeks and I'm still not processed, and I just keep feeling like I'm gonna get disappointed again.
I hope they come through this time.

well, that and they regularly send gifts that cost less than the amount specified on the website...but yet, they claim the higher value when they send 1099s, (the latter of which is illegal and I-Deal could be liable for damages of $5K if someone brought successful suit).

I could've brought suit against them, I guess. I got a 1099 for $2,800 but I only received the base line Mac Book ($1,100) and the Samsung 4254 42" plasma (Nextag's highest price listed is $1,100). Needless to say, I reported $2,200 on my taxes instead of $2,800.

We "brain deads" would like to publicly request that you (DRay9911) not attempt to complete any more of our sites. Due to the fact that you hate us so much, we don't assume this will be an issue for you.

For anyone else that has received the PS3's and are lacking the Madden 08 game, it is being sent via fed-ex tomorrow morning.

We are not providing shipping invoices, however, if something goes wrong with the PS3's [b3c53a65814]within a year[/b3c53a65814] of you receiving them, please contact us and we will try our best to assist you.

don't worry, i won't be rolling the dice on your sites in the future.

i contacted i-deal 1 year and one month after i received my monitor (the same day it crapped out on me) and i was VERY clear in all my correspondence that

a. i was not asking i-deal to replace the monitor
b. dell had a 3-year replacement warranty

whoever was answering the e-mails was absolutely no help at all. i received curt answers, the run around and was lied to. CS couldn't even make up a somewhat believeable lie.

had someone over there gave half a damn and made an honest attempt to help me out, there wouldn't have been an issue.

that's why i hate i-deal.

jesus, let the ass-kissing begin

yes, i-deal is great as long as you don't need help from their customer service department.

and kudos to them for doing their job and sending what people have completed the requirements for.

until i read a good reason to the contrary, i see no reason why invoices or some form of proof of purchase aren't included. it can be a damn gift receipt, but "we will try our best" isn't good enough.

congrats on the PS3s

Far from the top, when we can get a straight answer on these bogus DQ's, then they may be near the top.

For example... How come people are randomly being DQ'd for email's or 1k of gifts in 6 months?

http//forum.freeipodguide.com/viewtopic.php?t=41201&start=2360

a. too many questions....check
b. not enough answers...check
c. "i sent you a PM"...check

they have always had a history of glossing over relevant questions/topics that are brought up. i know my situation from the last page won't be addressed and i'd be surprised if there's a response as to why invoices are not included with items (from the top of this page).

and for anyone who thinks they are going to be of any help when something you receive craps out on you, they will TOS you

I don't think there are any bigger no-ref I-Deal sites currently. The best you'll do is probably 8+0 for $500. They seriously cut back on the easy big-ticket items they used to have. Anything big now requires like 12+1, and they now DQ for congas, making refs harder to get.

That's a fairly common occurrence -- they don't renew all of their domains, at least not right away. If your account has been approved, you should be processed and receive your gift anyway. The only time domain expiration poses a real problem is before your offers credit or before you're approved.

If you completed at least one on each of the three pages (Silver, Gold, Platinum) on the 16th.. then they will ALL credit on the 26th. It's 10-days per section. Even if you completed one on the 16th and three on the 24th they will all credit on the 26th.

Oh really? Thats awesome! Also, what are the odds of getting a $560 check instead of the ps3? If I do receive a ps3, I'd probably end up selling it, but the average resale value is like $350 tops.

zr2152

18-04-2008 12:40:50

Well it depends if I-Deal is sending out a batch of checks or gifts. They just recently send out actual gifts. Maybe next time they will just send out checks. For the PS3, it is much cheaper for them to sell the actual system.

Who knows though.

$560? how big is the hdd on these or are you just hoping for a miracle? Retail on 40gb PS3 is 399 from SonyStyle and I recently got resale over 380 on 2 different units

Yeah well the price on the site is for the older units before the price drop. They save money by sending systems and not checks.

Their Terms and Conditions now requires a referral for the PS3. I started my offers on 4/16 before this was the case. 7 orf my 8 have credited and I just did an 8th. Am I ok without the referral since I got in before or will they try to screw me on this? The status page does show a referral box, but I don't know if it would anyway. What do you think?

zr2152

Just email CS and they will manually process you. If you signed up before the requirements change, you will be okay to finish the site for the previous 2-2-4.

Yay! My ps3 came today! UPS guy came around 550pm and dropped it off while I was at work and my father answered the door. This is my first i-deal and first major freebie item.

Started on March 20
Did 2 replacements on the 30th,but one original finally credited so I had an extra
Mailed cert on April 2nd
Approved April 14
Got item today--April 30

So about 41 days from start to finish. Pretty decent timing vs my other diy I'm currently doing on a yfd site, I'm still waiting to be approved and I started that at the end of Feb. Though I guess yfd actually send out the amount that they advertise so I don't really mind the extra wait. I'm not in any hurry.

Also I guess the Madden game should be coming in a few days from what I've been reading. Overall I am satisfied with Ideal. Thanks bunches!

They can require it regardless, it's just a federal law that gifts over $600 be reported through a W-9. You are required to report anything you receive from these sites as income though.

Because I started an older I-Deal site within the 6 month period and did one offer before I realized I signed up with a different e-mail address. I then e-mailed I-Deal and asked if I could proceed, they said no. I forgot I even started it and apparently that one offer I did again somehow and it screwed me.

I just woke up to the noise of my doorbell, stumbled out to see a man dressed in yellow with a box. Signed his little computer, then saw the box was for me. Opened it up, and theirs my brand new ps3! D Didn't take nearly as long as I expected! Only about 5 weeks start - ps3 at my door. Thanks ideal!!

40GB version? I'm assuming so, since the new 80GB models aren't due out until later this month I think. Of course the 40GB model is only worth $399, but hey...

Yeah, its the 40gig. I don't think they'll ship out 80gb anytime soon. Their already saving money on sending out a system worth $399 when the rest of their 8 offer sites are worth $500.

it will come with the game, so that bumps the overall retail value up a bit.

some people would rather get the actual system because they probably wouldn't buy one if they received a $500 card.

I'm just not sure whats going on? I don't think their on vacation because other people have had the same problem we're having fixed sometimes even within hours yet we have been waiting weeks....

That's the problem, there is a group of us that have all the offers done and nothing has gone forward. No redemption link, no contact from I-Deal. Nothing.

I just got a request to give them a testimonial...
I would give one, but I'd have to be honest and they probably wouldn't print it, lol!
