Another Freepay Account on hold…
By Gary.L | February 6, 2008
It’s sad but after receving my iTouch from Freepay at the end of January I thought Freepay had let things go between me and them… Sadly I was wrong.
After completing iStuff.freepay.com and having my order reviewed and accepted I was then later put on hold but not on istuff.freepay.com, no I was placed on hold on another site in their network at gaming.freepay.com…
I disputed the hold and asked why I was placed on hold, I got a responce within a few days and had an explination, though it that was no good enough. I then requested a reason but have yet to recieve an responce…
Though I after reading their TOS it did state that any accounts placed on hold within their networks “May” affect other accounts linked.
Even accounts which have an order accepted and ready for shipping could/may be placed on hold too…
My fear was that I was not going to get my iTouch and that all my work and money spent on getting this site ranked well and booming with traffic was going to all fold under my feet.
Though a shock was to happen when I saw on my iStuff.freepay.com account that they was shipping my iTouch, not building my hopes up I just waited till it was delivered before getting excited.
Well, you all know I now have my iTouch, which brings me on to my next stage of my article…
After getting my free gift I then had a request from my girlfriend to help get her one, I thought instead of breaking the ToS of Freepay I’d sign up to ipods.freepay.com to make it all legit…
I got all 5 referrals way before the 30 day required period and had to wait 2 days before I could put her account in for review. Once it was ready I clicked the fantastic “Approval” button.
To my supprise her account was reviewed within 30 minutes but the out come was not so good, her account was placed on hold with the same old message that her or her referrals had broken the ToS and not completed an offer correctly.
I then emailed Freepay with another dispute and asked why she had been put on hold… The message I got was not only weird but also shocking (Since it took only ten minutes to reply!) as you will soon see!
They asked that my girlfriend fill in a tax form from the USA so they can send out her goods, I checked out the required form and it states you have to be a citizen of the USA to fill this in.
I then sent a message back and got a reply back the next day, they told me they had sent the message to the wrong person and appologised, fair enough I thought but wait! They still had not given me a reason for placing the account on hold.
This was sent on the 31st of January, I have yet to recieve any more messages from Freepay, I feel they will just ignore me and move, I don’t think they have any valid reason to placing her on hold since she had done nothing wrong.
Even though Freepay do give out gifts, I do feel that they delince “X” amount of people to make a profit, sadly I have had this done twice knowing I have not broken any rules.
They have had around 17 people sign up through my links and completed an offer, thats over £400 profit just from 2 accounts.
I fear to use Freepay since they don’t play ball and are dodgy when submitting for approval, to many rules are put in place to make sure you slip up so they can place you on hold.
I will finish my rant here, I won’t say not to use freepay since they do deliver and have very low referral rates but I will say this, they are now a company which I believe have a system put in place to put “X” amount of accounts on hold no matter what…
