EBay Your Say Surveys

[*tippy*toes*]

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>
 
Thanks for participating in our research activities last month. 

Your name has been drawn out as a WINNER OF THE MONTHLY PRIZE.
​
CONGRATULATIONS!

​You have won a $100 eBay voucher.

Your unique redemption code is: <removed>

Instructions for use:    

• It is a single use coupon
• Use the cart function and fill your cart with at least $100 worth of goods before applying the code
• No "change" is provided if spend is less than coupon value
• The voucher expires on the 31st October 2016

Happy shopping,

The eBay Your Say Team.

My response:

"As an eBay seller, if I dare make a mistake, you lot hammer me.

Negative feedback, account defects, charge-backs, being penalised by items not showing up in searches, we cop the lot.

YOU guys make a mistake, and it's a shrug of the shoulders and "Oh, well...".

Honour the offer, for anyone who wishes to take it up. Do it here, now, publicly - no PM's or "behind closed doors" stuff".

I just sent them a PM, putting on the big sob story (but a truthful story), so we'll see. I'm not expecting anything to come of it, but at least I've tried.

Watch this space!

I already did reply and got zilch response, so I unsubscribed.

I went right in and put $91 into my card, ready to buy with my $100 voucher. I can't help but wonder what would have happened if I had used that code and made the purchase.

[yearningsforyesteryear]

I forwarded it to eBay yesterday to see if it's genuine. No reply, so I sent a second one. I said I'll keep on forwarding that email until I get a response.

[yearningsforyesteryear]

And give em a negative

[yearningsforyesteryear]

Yep same, I unsubscribed.

[yearningsforyesteryear]

How come you get highlighted??

[yearningsforyesteryear]

Damn, should have bought that dashmat and tyre screws, along with other stuff in my cart....
