Velocity Shop and (NOT) earn

I have not had the same joy with eBay,I have made many, many purchases with ebay in the past with no problems and quick to post as pending, but there has been nothing showing since this recent promotion. Anyone else having the same issue, I am confident it isn't my fault!

I've had the same issue. Was working fine before but the last 2/3 weeks there has been no pending points listed the few days after the transaction. I've only had low value transactions from eBay lately so haven't gone through the pain of chasing it up but I wouldn't be buying from eBay expecting a painless points haul at the moment.
 
Same problem with eBay here, made many low value transactions past two weeks and not received one email like I usually do with the "you've recently made a purchase with eBay"

edit: i bet it's intentionally broken to save them the higher 4pt/$ payout...
 
+1 here for me, 4 purchases through eBay and no notification at all... what's the bet they will just deny it?
 
Add me to the list of no pending points with ebay. I made a $600 purchase three days ago and still no pending email. I've probably made about 40 or 50 over the past 12 months and all but 2 have come through in 24-48 hours. I'm thinking something is broken.

The problem is going to be getting them credited. In the past I've spoken to the VFF rep here who's sorted it out, but I'm not sure if he/she is still floating around??
 
I just got confirmation emails for purchases made on 5th and 6th December. Still a lot missing before that. Not sure if was result of my email to velocity or coincidence.
 
Hmm I woke up to find three points pending notices came through for eBay this morning.
 
Good to see that ebay came through eventually. Still waiting on points from Bonds from a purchase a month ago.
 
No joy here, made 2 ebay purchases around the start of the month, no emails here. Might need to give them a prod...
 
Also received an email about an eBay purchase, no emails for the other 3 though.

Received points from Austin Reed this week as well, from a purchase in August.
 
My most recent points purchase from ebay arrived this morning as pending as well....maybe somebody forgot to to feed the mouse....
 
No emails received today, but I shot one off to Plat. Velocity regarding Apple purchase.
 
No dramas here. I purchased a few items on Ebay last week and got the email today saying the points will come through this month.

I searched for the items I wanted on the stock site, then entered the item number into the search bar of the site when going through the Velocity shop. I paid via bank transfer.
 
No emails received today, but I shot one off to Plat. Velocity regarding Apple purchase.

Just received email from Velocity regarding Apple store purchase. "Once verified by Apple Store Australia, your points will be approved and loaded to your Velocity account within 30 days of purchase".

It's the verifying that can take a LONG time. Once approved by Apple, IME, they'll appear in you account within 72 hours.

Has anyone tried to make more than 1 purchase on the same site, e.g. Ebay, in the same day? Do the points get credited correctly?
 
Since when did the Apple Store offer drop to 3 points per dollar?

I just logged on to make a couple of purchases... fortunately I made some bigger tickets purchases a couple of weeks ago when it was still 4 points per dollar.

"Offer valid until 31 Dec 2013" and "was $1 = 1 point" suggest it's going further backwards at the end of the year.

It's back at $1 = 4 points now
I too noticed it said $1 = 3 points a little while back, fortunately I held off until it went back up
