Still waiting for Deal or No Deal winnings, anyone else?
 

I'm posting this because i hate being lied to...or told a lie to stall for more time. If you don't know when we'll get our winnings then say that you don't know.

Sorry Chelsey, but a resolution has NOT been found...i was given 3 different pay dates and then they all fall thru. I'm thinking my apology was a bit too soon and undeserved.

Don't give us date after date and miss them without so much as an apology and reason as to why it didn't happen...until after we come to GFY (or email you or ICQ you) and gripe about it. The date passes, you guys should be beating us in here with a reason BEFORE we post our gripe.

It's your reputations on the line every time you set a date and miss it.

Sorry, but i have to ask, what's gonna be the excuse or reason our fair and square winnings weren't sent on Monday as we were told?...you said those with epass should get them that Wednesday...heh, it's Sunday and still nothing from Python in my epass.

Anyone get their epass winnings (or winnings at all) from this contest on Wednesday as we were told? I know i didn't.

Just send the winnings so we can end these threads...as i stated earlier, it's your reputations on the line.

i must have missed something.

I highly doubt they would screw you but im also thinking how fucking hard is it to get a payment out???

Got my big check Friday. Thanks again Python. :)

That sucks for ya man. Promise three dates and no payment. Come on Python pay these people already, jeezzzz!

Gary

And on and on and on she kept goin'...

that sucks i didnt even win and they sent me money

I got my winnings wednesday by epassporte :thumbsup

I got an extra bonus from Steve last week :) But the epassporte never showed up. No problems though. I know they will pay!

Python ALWAYS pays.

sorry dude... what are you gonna buy when you get the cash? You know you're gonna get it even if it takes a long ass time though, I'm guessing you're gonna get paid on TUESDAY. I base this on nothing, but good luck:pimp

whats the reason for the delay ?

bumpity-bump-bump

what is this deal or no deal winnings? thought you were talking about some bs show on one of my free to air channels

Here's the apology thread, fucking-around-and-business-discussion/729762-formal-apology-dollarmachinesteve.html

Here's the apology (when ithought this resolved):

This is about a 100 bucks?

Yep....you gotta problem with that?

I'm not going to explain why i'm on this collection so hard...but i will tell you this...one reason (of several) is it's a matter of trusting the word of a sponsor rep. Pointing out stuff like this is what helps to keep the sponsors legit and the reps on their toes.

Multi-national corporation (or what ever) hunh?
But has so much trouble kicking out a single, 100 dollar contest payout?

Think about it.

Ya know what? I'm done with this, it's getting me nowhere.

I'll just pull down my Python thumbs from my sites and restore them when i get my winnings. Don't expect me to steer any webmaster towards Python and Dollar Machine either, at least not until this is resolved.

Pitiful...all this over 100 bucks.

First off, please stop referring to the money you are waiting for as 'collection'. This was free moeny you won in a lottery and has no link to signups or any business of any kind. You did not provide any service/traffic/etc. in return for this money. This is money that you won and we are giving you for no reason other than for participating in a contest.

Keep making threads, it has no bearing on when you will get your payment. There is a small handful of people waiting on their payments because of our accounting department - as you can see, most people have received their winnings, including Jayvis who got his $5000 cheque... I think you and 3 or 4 other people are still waiting because of the screw-ups.

We have built our reputation over a decade and it won't be tarnished over a couple weeks and $100 won in a contest.

Don't bother apologizing for anything or holding your traffic hostage waiting for this payment - no matter what you do, you will STILL GET YOUR $100.

I've explained and apologized why there's a delay and I've gone out of my way to resolve the situation, and once again I'll go one step further:

Do you want an extra $100? I will personally send you $100 for having to wait, $100 out of MY pocket on behalf of python/dollarmachine.

If you choose not to 'trust' us over this, then by all means go ahead, there is 1000 other sponsors out there.

All of this is because of the number of times i've been told WHEN we will get our winnings and then the slip-ups, mishaps, screwups and what ever else fits in there delaying things. Maybe in your next contest you should state when the prizes will be distributed...i'm pretty sure that will prevent something like this happening.

When i give someone a date i'm going to pay them, by hook or by crook, it's going to be done. I'm pissed because, being the multi-national (or what ever) corporation that you say you are, i can't understand all of these problems issuing winnings...maybe your accounting dept needs to be evaluated?

An extra 100 for the wait, sure, i'll take it, at least that way i can get my project(s) off the back burner and sent to the designer stage. Thanks!

Holding traffic hostage? I don't do that...as you can check for yourself you're still getting traffic from me...i'm not dumb enough to miss out on making conversions.

More threads, no worries...i'm exhausted beating this dead horse and moving on.

There you go - $100 bucks out of my pocket.

What pisses me off is that I explained the situation and I have always been available via e-mail, ICQ, AIM - you name it, and yet you kept going to the boards... and you just earned $100 for complaining. I feel like I've been personally and professionally held hostage over $100 that is not even a webmaster payment related to signups - this whole sitation is paramount to blackmail.

I hope the $100 serves you well.

You explained what happened when the dates i was given changed or fell thru...after that nothing. I've sent you AND Chelsey offline ICQ messages (i was online, y'all offline to clarify), i even sent you the email you wanted me to send you if i didn't get the winnings on that Wednesday, as per your request...all with no reply.

So please don't say i didn't try other ways to contact you BEFORE hitting this board.

Thank you very much for following thru on your 100 dollars for the wait...much appreciated.

bump.....

i must be one of the people in the group of just a few that have not been paid yet due to a delay?
but mine is only 25 bux so i really dont care how long it takes lol
but i dont see what kinda delay would delay 25$???

im still waiting for mines too :(

all this over $100?

i want my 25$$$

It's amazing what a piss fit people will throw over a little money won in a contest. Python has been around for a long time. A hundred bucks isn't shit to them. You will get your money.

Hey how much do I have to complain to get someone to give me $100?

My apologies for being late here...been busy with other projects...ANYWAY...

It NEVER was about IF i (or the other winners) would get our winnings...the problem is WHEN...did you even read the thread (or multiple threads i should say and not all by me)?

The question myself (as well as others) is asking is, "How long does it take (a multi-national (or whatever) corporation to issue an epassporte deposit to a few accounts?".

Steve was kind enough to come out of his own pocket in order to quell this shit...but there's still some of us (me included) that still have yet to receive their winnings.

I hate when people have the time to post their comments but don't have the time to read (not skim or "get the gist of") the thread their posting in before opening their yap...geez

me neither. :1orglaugh

You're not the only one, i am too (although i appreciate Steve for the "sorry for the wait" cash.).

yep yep...nothing gets passed you... :1orglaugh
