VaKim Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Well, add this type of reply to the mix:   So, I'm up to $40 from $20. Should I go ahead & buy one or try to email to get the full $60 one wonders? A friend of mine sent an email this morning and got a reply offering 20 dollars off. So she sent another separate one later and got the 60.00 off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I just really don't like being excluded. This offer is pretty powerful stuff, huh? I was excited about my 40 dollar offer until I saw other people were getting 60 off, and I wasn't even planning to buy a Kindle. I haven't succumbed yet. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Have you all seen the new Nook Glowlight? Did it come out today? Is this what started the big Kindle giveaway? A review said that the new Nook is aimed at people who have never owned a reader. Often people continue to purchase the format of their first reader. Was Amazon going after potential new eReader customers before they bought a Nook Glowlight? Â The Glowlight sure is pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has just launched the Kindle MatchBook program that lets avid readers own both the print and Kindle editions of favorite books. If you bought a book from Amazon as far back as 18 years go, you can add that same title to your Kindle library as an eBook, for prices ranging from 99 cents to $2.99, and sometimes free. Amazon says more than 70,000 books have been enrolled in the program, with more titles coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elegantlion Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013  My Kindle came today, but not without a story. It's pouring rain here. I had to drive 30 minutes in blinding rain for school. My passenger windshield wiper died on the way. Seriously, I don't mind driving in rain, and this was the worst downpour I've driven in a long time. The only reason I didn't stop was because I was headed home OUT of the storm.  Eventually I outran the storm, knowing my kindle was "out for delivery" with the post office. My mail came, no Kindle. I had lovingly dried off the table I keep on my porch for packages. I thought maybe their bringing it by car as it's raining so hard now (our carrier walks and my porch is covered) and it would come later. I checked every 30 minutes or so, no Kindle. At 3:30 Amazon shows the package delivered, delivered at 11:47! Which I know it wasn't because I'm  here, checking online, checking my porch. So, I call my post office (they were great). He calls me back and says the carrier thought he left it in the mailbox. By this point I'm thinking my almost free Kindle has been swiped by a bad post office person. I tell the guy this is an expensive item, not a book, please find it. I'm thinking this is just great, I've had a lousy year, I just wanted a good deal on a Kindle and I can't even get it! Ten minutes later there is a knock at the door as my dog tries to be a cliche and barks loudly at the mailman through the door. My package was accidentally delivered down the street as it was banded with a few other packages. Thankfully that person was home and honest! Sometimes it's nice to live in a small town. So my Kindle is here, but it almost wasn't. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's amazing that they're even giving the discount to any of us who emailed them. But they don't have to and for me it's not worth boycotting amazon for just growing their business. I agree to a point. And that point came for me when they did not even reply to my "no, this did not solve my problem" e-mail. I have had mixed feelings about this since the whole fiasco began. In fact, it is why I did not even ask for the promotion in my first e-mail. I simply asked them what the criteria was for the promotion and got a pat on the head in my answer. My second e-mail was to express to them that I did not appreciate being patted on the head, and that I knew they were being inundated with e-mails but that a little transparency could have avoided the problem. I asked again what the criteria for selection was and still did not get an answer. I got $60 off a Kindle but still no answer. That was their choice. Â There are all kinds of promotions on Amazon every single day, constant promotions there. You click a link and they outline the eligibility criteria (in excruciating detail) so it is crystal clear who is eligible and why. Their hush-hush, mysterious way of offering this promotion to a select few was just plain dumb. And now it is getting expensive for them. They bear the lion's share of responsibility for that by leaving customers confused instead of informed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't plan to boycott amazon, but I will point out the fact that *because* we are good customers is the very reason we are not getting the promotion. Some people seemed baffled by that.

Pawz4me Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 It's the same business model followed by many companies nowadays. Who do DirecTV and Time Warner give good deals to? First time customers. Not those who have been loyal customers for years. Sign up for a credit card? You get a great introductory rate. Been with the credit card company for years and always paid your bills on time? Not so great rate. Loyalty is rarely rewarded any more.

Yes, I noticed this as well. I have an iPad with the Kindle reader, and I have one of the very basic Kindles, and I frequently use amazon for both of them. I buy some print and e-books from them, and I'm a little surprised that I didn't get a promotional coupon; I would have thought they would have wanted to encourage me to switch to a Kindle for all of my e-reading, or upgrade my basic Kindle to a Kindle Fire. I *have* been looking into a second tablet for the kids to use, and being offered a $60 off coupon *would* have tipped me into buying a Fire instead of holding out for something else. Maybe I should send them a message and tell them that. Â I don't like the secretive way of determining who is eligible either. If it were an offer for people who didn't own any Kindle products at all, or one for the basic Kindle owners, or whatever, I have no problem with that, but they should state the clear criteria.

I just don't think amazon is a villain here. They could have been more forthcoming with criteria I suppose. I still don't fault then for trying to entice new customers to buy their product. I was simply standing up for them because 1. I'm a business owner and marketing for us is critical. Do we ever make mistakes? Sure. But we try to provide the best customer service we can, always. I think everyone makes mistakes, we don't need to insist that they pay for those mistakes. And, 2. I think amazon has an excellent record of good customer service. At least for me. One time the UPS man, instead of dropping my package off on my doorstep at our apartment complex, left my package with the upstairs neighbor. My neighbor was a moron and dropped it of on my doorstep. The package disappeared. I called UPS who said it was out of their hands. I called amazon and they just resent the entire contents of the package with no questions asked. That is good customer service and also a reward for being a loyal customer. Anywho I'm not condemning anyone. Just wanted to say I still think amazon does a great job.

Right. Cell phone companies are really good examples of this too. I did not get nearly so great a deal as the ones being offered now. Even when I (finally) went to replace my phone, it seems I missed some magic window for getting a good deal on a replacement.  Also? Every time we add a phone or buy a new one we get to sign a new 2 year contract. No breaks for someone who's been a customer for nearly a freakin' decade.

People in the middle of the 2 extremes have received the offer. Â I'm annoyed because on top of all that, I had just spoken with them about my kindle problem.

SevenDaisies Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I agree that businesses have a right to target their marketing, but I think it's a bad idea to exclude your best customers from your best promotions if you want them to continue to be your best customers. I have been a customer of a certain satellite company for a very long time, and when I make changes, I demand to be treated as well as new customers, or I ask to have my service disconnected.

I agree that Amazon usually has exceptional customer service. That is one of the major reasons I have been such a loyal customer for more than a decade. Of course every company makes mistakes. But in my opinion they bear all of the responsibility for losses after their refusal to acknowledge their initial mistake of not defining eligibility in their usual way. When the e-mails started coming, instead of saying wait a few days and see if the system selects you, they should have said we regret not making the eligibility criteria clear, and here it is: blah, blah, blah. Â In other words, they made one mistake (no problem, it happens) and then compounded that mistake by not addressing the real problem but by playing games of chicken about who they thought they could pacify with a discount and who got a no. They would not have needed to give out these discounts when the e-mails started rolling in if they had just clarified eligibility criteria, but now they are darned if they do and darned if they don't because they have given them out to so many squeaky wheels that it is just adding momentum to the loss. Â Anyway, they could have stopped (or at least slowed) the influx of complaints and significant financial loss merely by responding to the first complaints clarifying how customers were selected instead of pretending it was some kind of random selection process by their system. I mean just oy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PentecostalMom Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Okay, ya'll sucked me in. I was eligible for the $20 off, but have inquired as to why I am not eligible for the $60 promotion. I will update and let you know what happens. I would love to get one for the dc for Christmas.

Incognito Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 You people are really bad for my budget! I got sucked in, sent a nice email, got a nice reply, was GOING to buy the cheapest kindle, but then - hey, for $20 more, no ads... but then you all were singing the praises of paperwhite, so I had to check it out... SO bad! No thank you! ;)  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
