Anyfreegift.com / Offergift.com - Experiences

After being approved on Sep. 23 of 2004, and hassleing them about not getting
my gift as of the first week in Dec 2004, lo' and behold, the grill finally
came yesterday. In all its splendor and glory, its awesome. Valued at $279
its mine, all mine! Keep pestering them ya'll, if you don't get your gifts
don't give up. I'll be b-b-q-ing this weekend! FYI, this was anyfreegift.com

512-652-9015 is this the number to Offergift.com? Is it free? I remember is the original topic that 2 phone numbers to offergift/anyfreegift were posted and only one of them were free.

no clue. i think fatwallet redid some things and it got lost in between.

Actually, it's only 3 offers, and no, you do not have to convince other people to sign up.

Just to let everyone. I signed up on Anyfreegift.com for an Xbox on 8/28/04. I was approved late October and sent the certificates (certified mail)on 10/23/04. They received them on 10/27/04. I received a check for $150.00 on 12/27/04 and they apologized stating that they were having a problem getting Xboxes. Good luck to all.

You definatly have to stay on them. I statered the process in September (offergift.com). I have contact them fequently to keep up the status as they are very slow to responed.

They confirmed the receiveing date that they got my cert (11/12/04) last week and then promptly told me that there was a delay in processing the certs and now they were out of stock. They said that that they would send it out as soon as more came in.

Since that time January 4th. I have not been able to get an answer from them as I have sent several emails. I plan to keep bugging them until they give me a definate answer.

nugod777 said: I emailed Tang to see if they had received my certificates. He/she said no but that they had printed them out and submitted them to the gift center. Now another 6-8 week wait starts. I may eventually get my mini ipod.

This is what happened to me. It took about 18 days after that, that I actually got my ipod.

friktionn

Just to let you know, as I said previously, they really do stall a lot. I finally got a respones from an email that I sent Janary 4th and was told that they did not know when stock was coming in.

The process really takes about 5 months because they say that it takes 6-8 weeks to process the certificates and 6-8 weeks (I am on week 11) to ship out the item.

Good luck in your attempts and I hope that it is faster for you.. Started September and still waiting.

They will probably make you wait out the 6-8 weeks before they do anything about your status. But if you want, you could start forwarding the e-mails you received from when you signed up for the offers to anyfreegift as proof.

I gave them about three weeks and then I started trying to contact them. I recieved another message from Jen of the Anyfreegift.com User Support staff. this is what it said:

Hello,

Please remember that you must be an active member for at least 45 days
before you are eligible for your gift card. After that 45 day period a
link in your Account page (<http://www.AnyFreeGift.com/status_form.jsp>
that says "Approved" will appear next to that offer. Click on the link
and an Approval Email will be sent to you for verification and security
purposes. Click on the link in the Approval Email and you will be asked
to enter your name and mailing address.

Please be aware that you must complete two (2) offers in order to
receive your gift.

Once you submit the requested information, a Free Gift Certificate will
be generated. Print out the certificate and mail it to:

AnyFreeGift.com Gift Center
PO Box 390520
Mountain View, CA 94039-0520

Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery of your free Gift.

Although it isn't a gift card that I ordered, I think that her message is a bit more helpful than Erics. Jen says it takes about 45 days and although I still don't think it should take that long, it gives me a date to look forward to. I've already marked my calender and on the 45th day I'll be calling and emailing Anyfreegift.com about the status of my application.

Well, the former thread originally disappeared, so this one was started, but now that one is back. Turns out the original thread was the only hit that contained any real substance to it when googling for "offergift.com"

I started the process with anyfreegift.com on 12/7. I got the apporved status 2 days ago but the links were not sending the email. I called customer service and recieved the links immediately. I have printed the certificates and they are now in the mail.

The numbers are:

Phone: 650 810 1200
Fax: 650 810 1300

Additional Phone Numbers:

512 652 9015
866 383 3733

The 866 number will get you through pretty quickly and I think It's toll free too. Good Luck!

I sent my certs. in 3 weeks ago and have e-mailed offergift as to whether or not they have been received. I received this response everytime they replied:

Hello,

It is too soon to confirm the receipt of the certificates as your information has not yet been entered into our database.

Processing times are currently a minimum of 6-8 weeks from when the certificates are received by the gift center. If you do not receive your gift by then please contact us.

Thank you,

I am not sure how you were actually able to get your Ipod from Offergift.com. They only give me the run around. It took them 8 week to confirm that they had actually received the certs and they actually told me what day they received them.

Now all I get is they are having delays in processing, we are out of stock, and the most recent is that if the 8 week period had passed to reply to the message with my name and shipping address and they would investigate.

I have done all of that and i still can not get anywhere with them. They just give me the run around and even after they told me they would investigate they came back to the exuse of processing delays. We are starting week 12 as they confirmed receipt on November 12th. I am going to call them shortly as i don't think they really look at the email requests.

Glad to see this discussion is back.

I'm still "confirmed" on all 3 offers for offergift.com, as of 9/25/04. Meaning I've already sent them the certificates and they have acknowledged that... I'm wondering if I should start the phone calls and e-mailing right about now. Yeah I think so... it's been over 12 weeks. I'll update what happens.

how long did it take you guys to get the original confirmation email? I haven't even been able to get that (the one that you use to set up your password for your account).

If I recall correctly it was within a couple of minutes.

On a different note, does anyone know if I could sign up for everyfreegift.com if I already signed up for offergift.com? TIA.

Do you all know if you can use like Webcertificates for the payment of their deal signups?
