Sponsoring companies not affiliated with this offer?
 
Not to rain on anyone's parade as it seems as though, outwardly, this promotion is working, although noone has received an Ipod yet, several companies I've checked with that are part of this promotion state they are not affiliated with this program at all and do not do business with this company.

I'd be worried that this group is mining credit card information as you sign up for these offers.

OTOH, if you guys get your IPods... hooray, and sign me up!

Caveat Emptor.

Any questions I had were resolved when I contacted Apple directly & checked my order on their website. As far as affiliations go - I'm sure the companies use marketing companies that sponser their internet advertising. If you asked me where my company advertised, then I wouldn't be able to tell you everything. Look at the offers - companies like AMEX give referral dollars to people that sign up - it brings them business. I remember in college they used to give away free t-shirt if you signed up for a credit card - and the people who got you to sign-up (a friend of mine did this) got paid 8 bucks per person who applied & was approved - I'm sure the incentive is higher here because of the fact that the overhead costs were low & my friend didn't work for Amex - he worked for another company who probably got paid enough that it could afford to pay my friend 8 bucks per person.

Alfster8 & thisist2 - I'll provide your links on the first page.

Thank you. I hope this works. I could realy use an IPOD. I plan on using it in my car because about a month ago my car was broken into and my cd player and all of my cds were stolen. I would just take way to long to burn all those cds again, so this 15gb ipod would realy come in handy.

Jus a quick question for the guys who already got theirs...it said


Your Status:
Congratulations! You have currently completed all requirements to get your totally FREE iPod. We now need to confirm your account and referral offer completions. Please check back after 2 business days to see your status.
did you have anybody cancel before those business days time was up, because one of my people already cancelled the ancestry.com like a day later and today I just got that status...it shouldn't make a difference right, they're just going to match IPs with locations on a map and junk like that?

you should be fine. I cancelled mine after 1 day - I doubt it matters - they're probably just verifying that you were registered - they don't care if you stuck around - they'll get their money either way for the referral .
