15% Off ExpertFlyer

Saw this in a Google AdSense ad while browsing at Yapta.
May come in handy for those who use ExpertFlyer or new signups.

Shucks. So it's a one-time use thing... I'm guessing the NOV part means valid in November, but it doesn't matter now.

No, it shouldn't be a one-time use. It was a Google text ad.
I haven't tried it yet because I won't be renewing until the 23rd, but again, I doubt it is a one-time use. Perhaps mikey just had problems using it.

I'm sorry folks but that coupon is no longer valid, our friends at Yapta just haven't removed it yet. That aside it was for new users only, not valid on renewals.

If we should run a promotion in the future directed at existing users, you'll see an individual coupon code in your email.

In the meantime please feel free to discuss all things ExpertFlyer on our main thread here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...es-thread.html

A bit chintzy, IMO, considering it is only the 11th of November. How long was the coupon valid for, a matter of hours?

+1 I was going to renew but based on the path they chose on how to handle this, forget it.

No, since the begining of the month, it just took 11 days for someone to post it on FT. It was an experiment we were trying exclusively with Yapta for new EF users. However since it's now out in the open, the test is now invalid, hence we're turning it off. We apologise for any misunderstanding.

Keep an eye on your inbox, we do other promotions from time to time and when we do we will let you know via email.

While I was disappointed with how ExpertFlyer chose to handle the coupon code I posted in the OP (saying it was "no longer valid" rather than full disclosure that they pulled it because it was supposed to be targeted), I was pleased that the recent e-mail I received announcing Seat Alerts included a 15% off coupon code. I will be using it for my renewal.

For those whose EF subscription has lapsed, make sure to carefully read the e-mails you receive from ExpertFlyer.

My, are we so easily swayed?

I, too, will be renewing
