Anyone Else Having Their Deals or Freebies Duplicated by the Same People
Ask a Question
I don't know about you guys but twice now I've had really good deals on here but a few hours later, it's been repeated by someone else... For example I put a Chanel free samples on yesterday morning for Debenhams Beauty Club and I got 4 likes and two comments but this morning when I looked my ad had been replaced by someone else hours later but now the same ad is trending!!! But when I repeat someone else's deal, I'm told I cannot repeat and the points taken away!! Help.. frustrating or what
I did report it theChimp in the early hours and it was still up with 60 likes 11this morning.. it's the same person as before that republished my deal that's what I don't get.
I can see it pages back... but mines got 5 likes search Chanel n you'll see mine.. I'm not sure I think they might've taken the other persons down now.. they got to 60 likes... Just doesn't seem very fair to me kwim TheChimp
keepitjijjy I just searched Chanel on the app and your post came up first. I didn't see a duplicate.
Is it the one for mascara?
Thats it.. the other one was something like Iven.. Something or other but repeated ad that's just been taken down. I don't understand how their ad was trending 60 likes etc.. whilst mine was pages behind.what I'd like to know is how their Ad was able to be left up there all that time.. when my repeated posts don't make it past first base..@TheChimp
Hi keepitjijjy I am sorry didn’t get your question what you’re mean repeated please? if someone already posted before your deal and you’re didn’t notice that’s mean you’re was duplicate that’s why they removed it’s been happening with me all the time I been off still someone reports my deals quite a lot been removed as a duplicate never mind please find new one and post it don’t give up my family always encourage me when my deals removed I do take it seriously .take care have a lovely day
Hi Jasmine111.. what I mean is this.. I posted the free Chanel samples yesterday morning for debenhams beauty club then this morning my same deal was repeated by someone else, I reported it but it was still getting the 60 likes and trending, whilst my ad had disappeared!! now if I would've been the one repeating,I always get a message back from Latest Deals saying I'm sorry you can't repeat.. I reported early this morning that someone had repeated my ad yet nothing was done about it.. And what makes it even sender is it seems to happen when the freebie is trending.. that's what I meant
The timestamp on mine shows I posted mine well before their ad.. it's happened to me twice now.. but I know what you mean because I've also had stuff refused because I've repeated,. What I mean is a little different from me repeating.
Well said Jasmine111 !!!
Thanks so much for the words of encouragement.. I will keep going but it's so annoying when it's blatant in your face isn't it
# love Jasmine111
keepitjijjy I am so sorry now I understand. my advice please contact them on contact us they might help you I know with deals any one can post it after one month but with sample I don’t know I am sorry dear
Thats very sweet of you, Bless you
I contacted them last night about it but it was still trending this morning... But I think they're looking at it now only after 60likes and umpteen comments.. you've made my day though so thank you Jasmine111
keepitjijjy Thanks. please one thing keep in mind no matter if it’s in trending when LD will know you’re was original they will definitely will take notice take care have a good day I am so busy will be back in evening hopefully
OMG.. And how annoying when YOUR deal trends and someone else gets the credit Thank you for confirming that I am Not insane and just thinking this in my head TinaKaur94941.. Is it always the same person nicking yours too or different names. Xx
I don't post deals often so not happened to me but this is supposed to be friendly site shouldn't be a point scoring exercise hope it gets sorted for you
Hi keepitjijjy
I've just had a look into this for you and your Debenhams freebie still appears to be live? (https://www.latestdeals.co.uk/freebies/chanel-mascara-chanel-perfume-samples-debenhams). At first glance it seems perhaps you shared a duplicate of your own post a second time and the duplicate has been removed?
