      or to be precise another marketing scam from scoopon. only to lure newbies

        another marketing scam from Scoopon

        Nothing to do with Scoopon. They are only the conduit. V.me is paying for the promotion.

        Why not head over here and buy a gift card right now? No Scoopon scam.

        • +2

          Last time Groupon/Scoopon did this (I cant remember which one?) i scored two $10 itunes cards… delivered to my house… for… you know… free.

          One guy on OzB claimed to get 4 of them. No, it wasn't Broden.

        • Yep, likewise I got two. One under both mine and the Mrs accounts!

  • What??? Both of them???

  • How many available?

    • +6

    • How many available?

      V.me has split their promotion over 2 days. So far, they've sold 132 of these and they're still going. I can only asume there will be the same amount of iTunes cards as the $20 gift cards.

      • Scoopon and groupon both fix their "Sold " count number. I dont beleive that number.

    Not this V.me crap again. Exact same scam from their sister site COTD birthday sale. Free itune card just sign up and pay with V.me. On the day, the website is overloaded. V.me doesnt even work as a payment method. Probably had 5 card up for sale.
    Not worth wasting hours for a $10 itune card.

      Not this V.me crap again

      Seems to be working just fine here or here

      • As it was with the Catch of the Day 7th birthday sale.
        When the crappy deal is on, the site and V.me work fine.
        When the good deal hit, $298 ipad mini, free itune card, V.me went dead and the site is inaccessible.

        You can see from past expreience here
        and here
        And that is even with the CoTD facebook team removing all the extremely negative comment and complain.

        • 215 sold here and still going. And again, this is a V.me promotion. They're paying for it, not Scoopon. Enough said.

        • But you still need access to Scoopon to proceed with the payment. V.me was paying for the catch of the day promotion as well. Just come back at me tommorow when you manage to get one on these free itune card.

        • +1

          I was very lucky to get a free iTunes card from scoopon a while back (not vme) but I agree with highdealer that the page took forever to load and you had to be very lucky to get one.

        • +1

          that's cause only 215 over a number of hours
          free iTunes cards, how man thousand people do you think will try to get one or a few!

        • +1

          So you down vote because of Cry Cry i didnt get one?

          Nice Work.

          EDIT: I was pissed too, but people got theirs, waddaya gonna do?

        • +5

          Just come back at me tomorrow

          Next time I'll keep the deal to myself. Some people are never pleased. Give them something for free and they cry foul.

        • +4

          Agreed, not sure why people have a cry when companies offer items for free and not every single person gets one. It's more of a lucky dip arrangement, if you manage to get one score, if you don't better luck next time.

          Thanks for posting btw

        • Thanks for posting

          Pleasure.

        • I am not crying because i didnt get one. I never have to buy anything on Itune so it is useless for me anyway.
          That is not the point. The point of ozbargain is to share deal that is easily accessible to most people. If you need luck to score a deal then that fall more into the competition category. And as far as i know competition and lottery are not a deal and deserve a neg.

          Should i be posting free competition entry as a bargain because you will have a better chance of winning a competition than getting these free card.

        • The point of ozbargain is to share deal that is easily accessible to most people.

          Please show me exactly where it says most people http://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/

        • Fair point on the Competition angle (highdealer). To be fair, when I scored two free $10 iTunes cards on a similar deal, there was no Pre-announcement of cards being available; I got them on account of an OzB post everyone else seemed to be surprised by.

          But we're engaging in a slippery slope debate here. I would still rather know this is going down than not knowing, since it's scoopon after all, not something with more contestants, like X-Loto.

        • That is some sour puss logic right there. Don't be a hater because you wanted one but weren't quick or lucky enough to get one last time.

    • +1

      On the day, the website is overloaded.

      Boy, how wrong were you…

      • I admit it. My assumption about scoopon was wrong. My apology to Scoopon and V me. They really pull it together and prove me wrong. Their server was smooth throughout the sale and stock control was very good. Seem like Vme is legitimately trying to promote their service, though Cotd and scoopon are not the best company to deal with.

        And i dont understand why you are so defensive about the deal. Pressuring people to upvote it, asking for vote. Really?

        The deal is looking legit now but keep in mind nobody actually receive any card yet. It is scoopon we are dealing with and thing might still possibly go wrong. Hell they charge me $1 for no reason. Like WTF. http://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/60750/19788/untitled.pn…

        If this actually go through, then congratz you posted a great deal. I was wrong. Well played Vme/Scoopon.

        • @highdealer

          I see what you mean, Scoops & V.me are less than reputable (but still young), hence your reluctance to take the deal at face-value.

          Personally, I've redeemed a very similar deal to this, without any problems.

          As for Tightarese being "defensive" in the comment section; your comments (since recanted) and others went a long way in having him defend himself (personally i didn't think he was defensive, rather more "you'll see").

          Albeit i'm a lifelong friend of Tightarse (completely untrue), i want to thank him for scoring me more free iTunes credit, with minimal effort.

        • Thanks Jorkus, you summed it up nicely. The truth of the matter is some are just so negative before things have a chance to play themselves out - especially when something is free. Scoopon really got it right for this deal and they should be applauded.

          And as for highdealer's comment that I pressured people to upvote the deal… how could I possibly pressure anyone? My comment, which has since been removed by the moderator, was along the lines of - "To all the doubters, I hope you now upvote the deal". Is there something wrong with that? If there is, I apologise.

          Anyway, I'll just keep on doing what I love and that is finding bargains.

          Thanks all. Have a great weekend.

    My time is worth more that $10

    V.me is just unnecessary 'competition' for PayPal, and by competition I mean poor backward hillbilly cousin twice removed

      V.me is just unnecessary 'competition' for PayPal

      Bet you thought the same about PayPal being no competition for VISA/MASTERCARD/AMEX when they first started.

      • I keep both of them happy - paypal fronted visa card. this may now change it!

  • +17

    any decent competition to paypal is welcome. competition forces better deals for consumers

  • Witholding my +ve until I see this deal is legit…

    It's from the same mod as COTD - we all know how little they usually have with freebies and how well their servers cope :)

    • +1

      until I see this deal is legit…

      Why? same people, same type of deal. 1146 sold, and still going!

  • Is there any link to the offer yet … or just at 4pm search the site and hope their servers to hold up

  • Is Vme like a new PayPal?

    • Kind of, only much worse.

      Every time they've done one of these promotions, I could barely sign into my account. I've never actually completed a payment using V.me

  • Well the stock land could easily be signed in, for this deal should be the same…

  • Any direct link?

    My order's in. It said my Mastercard that I saved on v.me was invalid, so I selected Add Payment Method, put the same card details in and it worked. Strange.

  • i thought it was only a v.me exclusive, when i went to pay noticed you could choose between card, paypal or v.me.

    • They might cancel any order that isn't paid via vme.

  • Is there a limit just purchased 100 lol went through…

    • "Limit of 1 Scoopon may be purchased for personal use; Scoopon gift purchases not permitted"

    • Yes a limit of 1

      • Ordered 3 (3 payment methods) and this…

        Thankfully still one in my account :-)

        Dear #NAME#,

        We need to let you know there's a problem with your recent order.

        The order you just placed exceeds the number of Scoopons that one customer is allowed to purchase.

        If you would still like to buy any other items that were in your order, please go back to our website and place your order again.

        If you have any questions, please contact Customer Service via the Help Centre.

    Success, thanks OP

  • The site says 7 days to buy… I give it 7 more minutes til they're sold out!

  • I put through 2 seperate purchases with two methods, one was rejected, one marked as pending.

    • I voted up, but kinda expect they'd send cancellation email shortly

    • +1

      Then I saw the deal. Now I'm a believer. Not a trace. Of doubt in my mind.

  • Got one, thanks. It says 5000 available, its now about 1500.

    • How do you find out you got one, have you got your email already? I paid 10 minutes ago and still haven't received an email confirmation

  • -3

    PayPal is instant, credit card hangs forever.
    Make many accounts and pay with PayPal. You will get your card says one per account!

  • Still over 3000 left guys…

    • less all the ones people signed up for that they haven't "processed" yet

    Its running along at 100/min. This deal needs more +s

  • Silly question probably to this crowd, but is anyone going to contact Scoopon for their 1 cent back?

    • Nope. It would cost me more in electricity!

    • says it should auto refund…

    • I think there should be an ozbargain badge for that, it is not worth the money or the effort lol

  • Bought, let see if I end up getting the card

  • It's automated system making many account is fine . Not like they gonna check 5000 accounts… Take forever. Once deal finished should be auto emailed to your email.

  • Got my PDF. Is the scoopon number inside same as the iTunes code we need to enter on iTunes?

    • I don't think so. It says in the PDF, "Your digital gift card will be emailed to you at the conclusion of the deal"

    • You need to check your email.

  • 4378 Scoopons sold

  • shit completely forgot about this one. thanks for the reminder op and person who posted the dupe! oh it expired might of missed it.

  • I haven't got a pdf and its not showing up in my account?
