    People deserve their spending sprees. FAD got paid for the apps we downloaded. It's just a sleazy thing to do.

    Most of the other apps are only web apps so it shouldn't matter what apple has to say about it.

    I tend to cash in once I hit $10 worth of app store credit on the sites. I don't see a point in hoarding beyond that. FAS just seems like a site that could crash down at any time. I can't see how they can afford to give away the iDevices.

    Totally agree. It's just wrong. :(

    you have to remember how these sites work, they get money from the developer for recommending the app to you even if its free so having tens of thousands download a app @ 20-30cents daily profit for them is fast money for them.

    I think that eventually, one or two of these services will survive and the rest will close up shop. I imagine that what happened with services like tapjoy. That's just a guess though.

    woahhh fad is closing??? but they let us use credits up until 1/31/13 but where is my credits? they all gone, and there were 10k on each of 3 devices, wtf?
     
  13. Our credits are all gone. Too bad they didn't let us at least use them with what little apps are left. I probably lost about $20 in gcs, sigh. Would have loved to at least gotten Modern combat 4 at least for the bother.

    Oh well, too bad they closed like this. Can't believe they are still having sponsors though, that is a little ironic. :eek:

    According to the FB page, this is the FAD owner's email address: [email protected]. I know the developer is listed as Gamewave on iTunes. Also, someone posted about FMA on the FAD FB page. Thought it may have been the owner of FMA since he said something like "you guys will never lose your points here."

    Edit: Here is the guys info.

    I had 1350 points on FAD. All gone. Oh well...

    FAS, please last as long as possible! I'm yet to redeem my devices (it will just take a year *withoutbreakingasweat*)
    FMA, you given me too many gift cards. 'nuff said

    EDIT: Those services are the best out there, specially FAS, as I've got it in one month almost as much as in any other service in almost one year. I would turn very upset.

    "How it was done in Odessa" - well, this adress explains much. Odessa, among it's many accomplishements was also always notorious for producing crooks. Yea, I am a little bitter about losing 7.5K credits. I had mild interest in some games still on offer and might have picked those at least.

    too bad fad was the best for getting gc and stuff, ez to rack up enough points with there daily special offers.

    fas sucks, how many points for a gc? how long will that take to get that with a low of 75 points on a spin.
