365 days promotion code changed to only 7 days left

Hi SkyBadger and 4ndre,

 

May I know how you got the Promo code for Freedome?

That was the same offer I had gotten mine through.

Hi my 365days promotion changed to 3 days

I'm really hoping they aren't intentionally revoking it to sucker you into buying a membership after only 3 months of what supposed to be a year membership.

Unfortunately it looks like that is the case... nobody from F-Secure is trying to response on this problem.

Hello Everyone,

 

We are now in the process of expiring the Freedome subscription codes that are linked to trial F-Secure SAFE licenses, as the free 1-year Freedome subscription was only for customers who purchased F-Secure SAFE from the campaign. These Freedome subscriptions will be expired over the next few weeks.

 

When we expire these Freedome subscriptions, your Freedome subscription will expire 7 days after this. If multiple Freedome subscription codes have been used on the same device, your installation will expire one week after we expire the subscription.

 

Multi-platform Freedome subscriptions are available from our web pages at https://freedome.f-secure.com/. Single platform subscriptions can be purchased for Apple iPad and iPhones from the Apple App Store and for Android devices from the Google Play Store.

Hi @drvofix,

 

May I know how you got your Freedome code?  Was it purchased from F-Secure directly?

Hi @Laksh,

Aliens gave it to me.
It wasn't purchased, it was a promo campaign code 1 year free subscription only for Freedome F-Secure.
The link from some (I can't remember now, it was more from 3 months ago) GiveAway page to your site, and yes, I got it from you. I can send you the voucher code on PM so you can see it.

You should be straight and tell people, OK we'll give you 3 months free and that's it... no problems. But F-Secure promised 1 year free subscription, and now you changed your mind and shorten it to 3 months. It's not very great strategy.

Anyway, I'm not gonna beg you here for giving back what you promised (by the way, I'm not the only one)... it's just one big minus for your company. If you want to be serious company, then act like one and be careful what are you promising to the customers.

Regarding your Fredomee VPN... it was totally OK, stable connection, good speed... hope you're going to grow into serious and reliable company.

Good luck, and have fun making your wallets fatter.

Oh my [*].  What extraordinary behaviour, handled extraordinarily  

 

I... I'm not really sure what else to say, perhaps because right now I can't think of anything much beyond: what an incredible HN post this shall be, Front Page of the Internet maybe?  I fully screen doxxed signup 

 

Confirming my 1 year subscription has been quietly "expired".  My iOS app has also now begun serving pop-up ads for other software.

That's F-Secure for you.

Hello,

Regarding the one year offer for Freedome I found it here:

 

http://www.windowsdeal.com/w/f%E2%80%91secure-freedome-vpn-1-year-vip-100-discount/

 

There was no mention of the deal requiring a subscription to another product.  Was this offer made by mistake?  It would be nice if you would offer users who accepted this "deal" in good faith a discount on a Freedome subsciption.

SOMEONE KIND ENOUGH SHOULD PLEASE HELP ME WITH A CODE ...PLS AM DESPERATE 

Hello
I had a promotion of 2 x 1 year (720 days) and it increased to three days for no apparent reason.
Does F-Secure Freedome decided to cancel its promotions? in this case it would not be very encouraging for business or buy a code.
If it's a bug, I'd like F-Secure provides a coupon code to me two years he had given me.
I hope this new year will be carrying a gesture of goodwill that would be much appreciated.

Same problem for me!

This not a problem nor an issue! Probably thousands of people abused the "1 year of Freedome" deal which was intended for people who actually PAID for F-Secure SAFE. Currently F-Secure is canceling all of those 1 year subscriptions for Freedome which were received through a Trial (free) version of SAFE.

You people have no right to complain if you didn't pay for it. If anything, you should be thankful that F-Secure let you use Freedome for months, free of charge. That should be way more than enough time for you to decide whether to pay for the app or not.

 

I mean, what did you think was gonna happen? Thousands of people using Freedome for free for the next few years? Server costs would probably be up the roof and no income for F-Secure since everyone would use it for free.

 

TL;DR All 365 Day Promo Codes that were received from a Trial (free) version of F-Secure SAFE are now being cancelled/expired due to abuse. People who _PAID_ for SAFE are safe.
