          Too much! Bought one off eBay for 1$ delivered, works well but can not power both USB port concurrently. So looking for one which can power both.

        • yessum on 20/08/2014 - 21:05

          Oh thanks for the heads up! The one at Woolworths was a dual charger but if I can already get one for a dollar, I'm going with eBay.

        • UncommonName on 21/08/2014 - 02:15

          @yessum:

          Can send you the link, pm me. But if you find one off eBay which charges both concurrently, pm me the link too.

    Bought a lightning cable not because I have a need for one (S5) but out of the two Kogan sims I bought ruslan only managed to deliver one and of that one well his mobile service is no more, so he wasted my money and time

    I conclude I have a 50% change (well less as I actually paid for the sims) of receiving this.

    In conclusion I would recommend not buying anything from ruslan.

    This is a slap in the face! I just bought 2 like 2 months ago. Ah well, at least it was only $2. Yes these cables are often worth $1 each.

    Just unsubscribed. Gotta be one of the longest processes for unsubscribing. After pushing unsubscribe in the email you have to push more options then more options then unsubscribe then confirm it.

    And you are greeted with a big red banner saying this option can't be undone!

    I know…. That's why I'm doing it.

    • UncommonName on 17/09/2014 - 01:16

      That's why I've given them my spam wallet email.

  • UncommonName on 17/09/2014 - 13:11

    I dont remember ever been subscribed to Ourdeal.com.au

    Has anybody else being bombed by their hourly emails?

    • Food on 17/09/2014 - 15:35

      I've just received an ourdeal welcome email, but to a different email address to the kogan

  • Rupture on 21/09/2014 - 19:16

    Sneaky that the confirmation email comes just a few days ago (like there needed to be one at all). Also just tried to unsubscribe and got server error 500. Love it!

  • Rakddon on 28/09/2014 - 10:12

    I havent got my cable or an email from kogan.

    • Unorthodox on 28/09/2014 - 15:26

      Check your spam folder or your 'promotions tab' if using gmail

      • Rakddon on 29/09/2014 - 01:14

        already checked and nothing.

        • Unorthodox on 29/09/2014 - 10:50

    It's been 6 weeks now & no cable. I've received over 30 emails from them in the last fortnight.

  • mmd on 29/09/2014 - 02:08

    I used to receive spam mail from Kogan from sigining up to the free cable, but i cant find them anywhere. Has anyone not received emails from them?

  • GPT4 on 30/09/2014 - 21:03

    Got this reply when I contacted Kogan asking when I can expect my free cable. Have forwarded them the activation email I received and waiting for the reply. Not cool…

    Hi Name,

    Thank you for contacting Kogan.com.

    We have checked our records and it doesn't appear that you completed the free lightning cable promotion with your email address or name.

    Would you have used an alternative name or email when entering the promotion?

    Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further assistance.

    Kindest Regards,
    Ben

    • Snoop on 01/10/2014 - 08:40

      Sorry, but as I said previously "Koganed!"
      And the fact that it's through an offshore company, there's probably not much we can do about it!

  • Grok on 03/10/2014 - 13:48

    Msged on facebook, just hot this response:

    Hi Food,

    Thanks for contacting us.

    These are the same cables that are listed on the Kogan.com website (http://www.kogan.com/au/buy/micro-usb-to-usb-cable-1m/) and they have an approximate 3-4 week delivery time.

    To offer these cables at such a low price, free in your case, they are sent via regular post directly from China.

    Thanks for your patience and your cable should hopefully be with you in the next week.

    Kindest regards,
    Kelly
    The Kogan.com team

  • Unorthodox on 04/10/2014 - 19:01

    Anyone know the output of these cables?
    Guessing it won't be 2A or 1.8A

    • Snoop on 04/10/2014 - 23:12

      Even if you do eventually get it, I'm thinking that you're going to struggle to get any output out of it!
      However there is a workaround, but it means you have to have a power adapter too!

      • Unorthodox on 05/10/2014 - 00:37

        Haha I have a 2A power adapter but I wouldn't want to use a cable that only transmits say 1A

  • sama on 06/10/2014 - 02:48

    Still no cable. Only spam.

  • Basslync on 06/10/2014 - 08:40

    I think all Kogan deals are scam. What a waste of time. Doesn't appear that anyone have received it.

  • strikerzebra on 07/10/2014 - 12:48

    Still no cable, even if it's shipped from china it should take 3 weeks, not 2 months

  • Going Broke on 07/10/2014 - 13:21

    Liars! Never sent the cable. Just another scam.

      I knew Kogan would do that.

      One he sells for $1 and one for $10. He asked you which one you want for FREE, you pick the $10 one and get delivered the $1 one.

      SURPRISE !
