If a discount code is advertised as being good through a certain date, don't yank it early because too many customers used it.įinally, I'm human, and I make mistakes. But I think Newegg, which has a great reputation for great deals and customer service, really dropped the ball here. Obviously any company has the right to end any promotion at any time they like. Then, suddenly, the code was gone, nearly 48 hours before the expiration. What really frustrated me last week was that Newegg listed an expiration date for that code, suggesting that it would be good through that date. Unfortunately, there's no way for me to know how many redemptions are available for any given coupon, or how many remain at the time I write about it. Next, a reminder: Coupon codes often expire after a certain number of redemptions, as we discovered with last week's Newegg deal on the Toshiba hard drive. Ultimately, the whole thing proved a little too good to be true - and I'm sorry it turned out that way. That said, I feel like they should have honored the deal at least for those who received confirmations. The standard SiriusXM Internet Radio trial is 30 days, so it's not surprising the company quickly clamped down on what was meant to be an exclusive offer.
Some couldn't sign up at all, others received a confirmation e-mail for the one-year trial - only to be informed a week later that the trial had ended.Īs I noted in my original post, that deal was probably intended for Chevy customers, not the general public.
The recent SiriusXM freebie proved disappointing for a lot of folks.
