MobileMe to extend 60 days Free

FlwrPwer · 08-18-2008, 09:36 PM

Just got an email...for those people who were signed up by Aug. 19th, you will be extended 60 days for free.

This is sorta to say: Sorry that it was so bad.

I'm sure those of you that use MobileMe got the same email, but I wanted to post.

Yeah got the same just now.

I did not get that one. I got one earlier that said my account would be extended 30 days. Maybe because I had .mac before mobile me. Or maybe I will still get this email also?

EDIT: I got the email. 60 days ext is good for me!

So now we get 4 months free instead of 2? is that correct?

i'd love for it to just work. i don't mind paying for something, i just expect it to do what it's supposed to. i really hope they're putting enough resources on this.

i think three months free, unless you are including the trial period.

I signed up August 5th and my free trial ends October 5th, now we get 60 free days extra, that would be four months, I hope this is how it works.

Exactly - 3 months free total. I just got the email and here's what it says:

MobileMe Update

yeah, with the trial period, you got yourself four free months of substandard service. not bad! im sure they'll get the bugs fixed. it's admirable that they recognize their failures and have offered generous compensation. im nearly happy.

I just got it today, not knowing about the free days, do you think that I will get it? Haven't gotten the email yet? No big deal if I don't. I like it though.
