By the way...I'm guessing that when freeipods created this offer, they did not intend for internet Conga's to get started in order to complete offers. They offer e-mail to people, with the intent that very few e-mail referals will complete the offers. So in essence, these Conga's are just another way of beating the system. Just a thought...now I'll go back and edit my previous posts. I suggest that others who quoted me edit their quotes as well.

Sorry for any problems this has created.

No problem but If you log into your account...go to the *refer friends* page, at the bottom it says "you can also email the following link directly to your friends or post it online" so they pretty much want this deal promoted and there's no better way of promoting than doing the conga thing...
:D

Sorry, didn't mean to jump down your throat over this. I'm sure there are ways of cheating; I've heard of one or two. The point is they don't always work, if you get caught you screw up the people who referred you, and if too many people cheat we'll lose the deal. At the very least, any "creative freeipods strategies" should be kept somewhere other than a referral chain thread, for fear of everyone in this thing getting disqualified.

To recap, a proper referral link post should have the following information:

* Whose referral link you used (person's name, not link URL) - IF IT IS NOT THE CURRENT FEATURED LINK LISTED IN THE RULES, YOU WILL NOT BE ADDED
* What offer you used
* What your referral link is

BEFORE POSTING,you MUST CLICK HERE to READ THE RULES!

You will NOT be added if you do not follow the rules!


By my count, alfster8 should be done. We haven't heard back from the next two, so Let's move on to danceswithsunlight

If you want to be added to the list, use danceswithsunlight's link below:

I contacted the 3 people who used my referral link to get their email addresses. Teacher49's email does not show up on my list. Here is who is on my list.
fsexman@*****.com Joined, but offer not completed
jpgrimes@*****.com Joined, but offer not completed
nimisantiqua@*****.com Joined, but offer not completed
smitts915@******.com Joined, but offer not completed


Maybe a wrong link was clicked, no big deal but I just wanted it to be known that I may only have 2.

If anyone has rubpa@*******.com on their list let us know.

Sorry you're running in to difficulty. I emailed ipods days ago, and have yet to get a reply. My guess is that they're having server problems, and this may be delaying credit. I have been off the top of the list for 4 or 5 days now, and just had new referrals post to my list today. I don't know what's going on there. Good luck.

Teacher49 Jul 25, 2004 8:05 am

I used the customer service link on freeipods to let them know that I signed up using dances' referal link and yet have not shown up as "joined but not confirmed" I provided them with a copy of the link and asked that they be sure to credit my sign-up to dances.

We'll see what they do.

It's hard work to get something for free!

Best wishes,

Teacher49

That must be the problem,. I'll wait a few days to see if teachers email is credited.

Thanks teacher49 for emailing ipod. We will wait and see what happens.

I signed up yesterday (25 July 04) using alfster's link. I used the ebay offer, but it hasn't been confirmed yet. I need 5 (working on some family members right now). Mine is: http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=7326574

Thanks

Added 27 July 04:
I've been credited for the ebay offer.
