Transcendent Innovations known as Trainn
Alot of people like this network, I don't really care for it. They take forever for support. At least 3 days for a reply. I also have problems with offers crediting, even the instant ones. I also follow all the greening tips.
Trainn sites have 2 different methods to receive gifts/cash. They are points and referrals. If you choose to seek referrals for you account you are allowed to order one gift/cash. After that you can change your account type once to points. With a points account you can order multiple times, but YOU need to complete the offers for points.
Once you have required amount for your order, you submit for approval. That takes at least 3 days. That is when they become more of a pain. They disqualify many of your referrals at that point. No personal experience with that yet. According to long time traders, they "red" usually at least half of your referrals for some type of fraud. Then you are back at square one.
YourIpodTouch4Free -
360Elite4Free- This one my referrer scammed me on my green, we traded green for green. Well she never completed and was banned from the forum. Trainn will not move you from one referrer to another, but the can make you unreferred. I went ahead with that because I did not want this scammer receiving any credit from me.
YourIPodNano4Free
FlashIpods4Free - This banner should keep my status updated. I am still waiting for 2 referrals to go green. I just want to get this completed, so I can forget about it.
Trainn does have a nice referral banner though.
These 2 I am having crediting issues. If you notice it says offer not completed. ****Update**12/19
I received my credit on yourfreeiphone.
YourFreeIphone - I actually am beginning to question the creditability of TraInn. I am having problems with Yourfreeipone offers crediting. I had submitted a MCR which is a "manual credit request" on 11/12.
TraInn seems to be the only site that I am having crediting issues with.
My question is, "How do I know that they didn't receive credit for me?" I don't, for all I know is they did and are just denying it because they can!
They have to make $ somehow. Why not take it from customers? There is no way for anyone to find out, unless the customer has someone on the inside.
Anyone else have crediting issues with TraInn? If so, I would really be interested in hearing about them. Please comment on here.
Below are my support tickets with TraInn:
This is their reply to my question from 11/24 on how long does a MCR take?
11/26
Most missing credit requests are resolved within 10 business days (2 full weeks) of being filed.
Unfortunately, though, we were unable to obtain approval for your request as you previously registered for the offer. Credit is only provided to us, and in-turn you, for the first the a user registers for the offer. As such, as we will not receive credit for the sign-up, we are unable to provide credit to you.

I don't know who lied to you, but I have NEVER been to that site before. Let alone done their offer!

When filing the request, you selected -Yes- for the question asking -Have you ever used their service before?-.

Well I didn't mean to If I did, it would have just been by accident if I left that circle on yes. I have never done it before.
It does say on my terms and conditions from hoodiacore that if you have previously tried the offer you can not and will be charged full price. I do know that each offer can only be completed once. Why would I try Hoodiacore again and risk being charged $38.95? How do I know that you guys didn't receive the credit for this? I have my paperwork that says I was a first time customer.
So was this not even looked into because I didn't check no, the default circle is on yes. I am sure I am not the first one to do this.
Sorry if I am being rude, I am just so fustrated with your company. Your company is the only company that I have crediting problems with. I have followed all the crediting procedures to a T. Please tell me what I am doing wrong. I have 2 other sites from your company that I am waiting on too.
I don't have a proxy, I don't have multiple addresses, ip addresses, cc #'s, I clear my cookies and I know that I have not completed any offer more than once. I could see if I have been doing freebie incentive sites for a long time. I just started at the end of october. I have never even been to any freebie site before then. please help me.
I know that I DID NOT check "yes" to completing it before. I will keep you updated on what their reply is.
Again, If you have issues with them please comment.Trainn's ReplySubmitted at 00:13:12 on 2008-12-06
As we do not have access to the account with the advertiser, the only information that we have about the sign-up is that which you have provided to us. As you left the box checked yes, it was assumed that the information you entered was accurate, just as it would have had you checked no.
As multiple sign-ups for the same offer are not allowed, nor any credit provided for them, the matter could not be, and was not, pursued.
If we had received credit for the offer, it would have been credited to your account as all sign-ups have been since we opened our sites four years ago.
Further, the crediting problems would not be due to registering for the offers on our site or any inaction on our part. You would have experienced the same issues if you attempted to register for the same offer(s) on any site as the tracking of a sign-up is based on your computer settings and the advertisers tracking system.
As you claim to be experiencing problems with multiple offers, we would advise you to take the following action to ensure proper tracking.
- Doing a thorough cleaning of Adware infested programs or toolbars. This
type of software can highjack our tracking and will instead provides credit
to the developer (with no reward to yourself).
- Ensuring cookies are enabled
- Clearing your existing cookies
- Disabling any popup blockers/internet security programs running in the
background
Upon following these guidelines, your success rate of receiving credit for your offer completions should be substantially greater and essentially trouble free.
As you claim you have not registered for the offer in the past, we will forward the information to the advertiser to investigate. Upon hearing back on it, we will update the request status accordingly.Well almost 1 month since I sent MCR. I submitted it on 11/12.
I guess this was pretty much a waste. I do all of the above procedures. It is also ONLY TRAINN sites that I have issues. I go into my cookies and delete them all, then I keep them open as I sign into site and complete the offer. This way I can make sure the cookie is in place.
I still think they may be full of it! How would the average person know if they were lying about crediting or not? The only way would be to get records of the credits trainn received.
