I signed up earlier in the year to do the surveys and have done a few. Most of the time it says that I've been entered into the monthly prize draw and I thought it was like Readers Digest where no-one ever knows the winners or the names are just made up to make it look good. I got an email tonight.......
Hi <my name>

Next you'll get the eBay 'we made a mistake & sent the email to everyone instead of the winners' Ebay couldn't run a sausage sizzle without stuffing it up. They are quite happy to give sellers defects for everything from Aust Post delivering late etc etc. They get a big DEFECT from me. They are pathetic!

I thought about buying some paint! I have had to suspend that thought. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, the paint seller will have to wait.

How come you get highlighted??
because tippy lurrrrrves paint (and paint sellers).
If you can include the word "paint" in your post it will almost certainly get your post painted green.
Try it and see!

They just recalled it. The idiots sent it to everyone.

"We really value the feedback you're giving us".
And if you believe that, I have some lovely beach-front property in Alice Springs, going cheap...

I knew it was too good to be true. Fargin iceholes. I'm gunna fight it and see what happens. Can't hurt to try. Maybe we all should do it en masse. Maybe people power might make them honour it as a courtesy.
Now I'm back to my old theory, that the winner names are made up or the names of family members, just like Readers Digest. Prucks.

I anticipate lots of marvellous feedback when they send their next survey out! Can't wait...

I replied to the recall email. The email address was "support @", so I figured it was a manned email address. We'll see.
