Reminders.... Do They Work For *Anyone*...?

Utopian on 23/11/2015 - 20:59

I've set several reminders, and not-once have they worked.

Can someone please advise how/where they're meant to show-up/work?

TIA.

      Reminder is an Ozbargain feature. It lets you set a date in the future to be reminded of a certain deal.

      Amex shop local,
      Pinch me.

      Created, but nothing happened.

        It's only visible on the side block for the front page on the reminder date, and it will be in the newsletter if you are subscribed. We're also going to add it to notifications soon.

          @Utopian: The side blocks are not on the mobile site I'm afraid.

          Notifications for reminders will be rolled out next week.

          @moocher: Any stats on number of views… desktop vs. mobile?

        • Moderatormoocher on 09/12/2015 - 15:00

          @Utopian: Approximately 54% of sessions are on desktop, 37% on mobile, 9% on tablet based on Google Analytics stats.

    I've used it once recently for the Visa Checkout Scoopon $10 off deal and it didn't work.

    Send the mods a message

    The original deal reminder feature thread will explain how it works.

    More recently an update was rolled out where you can set custom dates for the reminder, and add reminders directly in your Google calendar.

    Yer i couldn't work out why i never saw any until i realised it was only on the front page, which i barely ever visit. Would be cool if it would send notifications but then i guess you can download the calendar.

    • Moderatormoocher on 04/12/2015 - 16:08

      Good idea. This is in the pipeline.

      • happychild100 on 04/12/2015 - 16:10

        Oh really, looking forward to it!.

  • Moderatormoocher on 08/12/2015 - 06:52

    Desktop notifications for deal/comp reminders have been rolled out this morning. Please see new wiki page.

      Thanks for updating!
