Not only that, but the deal terms and conditions quite explicitly didn't include industry-standard rules limiting bonuses to one per person... many many many people got multiples.
- bombcar 4y agoTHAT starts to sound suspiciously like intentionally encouraging multiple signups to juice numbers. Shades of the dollar coin fiasco again.
- eins1234 4y agoI don't know... If I had to guess, this sounds more like incompetence than malice to me.
- PragmaticPulp 4y agoNot a chance. Even at scrappy startups, these offers are carefully evaluated by lawyers to comply with necessary laws. There’s no way their lawyers looked at this and just sort of forgot to catch the lack of a “one per customer” clause. It’s not really malice, though. They simply wanted to buy their way to the maximum number of signups they could get, and paying customers to sign up is the easy button to do that. Removing the limit for multiple signups will take it even further.
