    Any referrals appreciated.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭Neil_Sedaka


    Just want to say a Big Thanks to all that used my referral link.

    I still have a couple of pending installs and email verifications, but I'm delighted with the response here and I hope everyone benefits from the freebie.

    As jmcc99_98 said earlier in the thread, "Feel free to share the love"
    I have plenty to keep me going so consider using some other links provided.
    I will of course be accepting anything sent my way too :D

    Thanks guys, now all I need is a decent upload speed to make full use of the service.

    Cheers.

    I don't normally read T's&C's but I did for a change, and thought it worth pointing out this bit from https://www.copy.com/about/tos
    Free Accounts

    Copy allows you to store a certain amount of data free of charge. Copy reserves the right to change the amount of free storage or terminate Free Accounts at any time. Copy may, at times, award your account additional free storage through various promotions, such as a referral program. You must follow the rules and restrictions of any such promotion to be eligible for additional storage. All free storage on your Copy account is subject to the same restrictions contained in these terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Free Account is inactive for a significant period of time, then Copy may delete any or all of Your Files. At least 30 days notice will be provided to the associated email address(es) on a Copy account in the event of changes to the amount of free storage, account termination for any reason other than abuse, or deletion of data due to inactivity.

    the bolding is mine.

    Well at least they give you 30 days notice if you have been inactive for a significant period.

    Wonder what they consider "significant"? A month? A year?

    I suppose they can't have dead accounts on their servers taking up space.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    There's a couple of guys on fiverr.com increasing space.

    Did it last year with Dropbox & currently have 22gb there.

    Just did it with copy & now have 200gb

    Gonna use it for home movies backup etc.

    Oh brilliant - thanks. I had done this with Dropbox and I have 25gb which is more than I need. However I was looking for an online backup service for my photos and old files etc - dump them all up there as a just in case. This is perfect. I've just ordered a fiverr one to get 200gb - perfect!

    And should the 5GB extra space show up straight away or does it take a while? I checked in and have nothing extra, checked the code too just in case, but I have posted it correctly. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 414 ✭✭Bosh


    Excellent thread. :D

    One question... I have Win 7 on a ssd (C) and install all programs on E.

    The Copy app doesn't give the option to change the default install location & installs to C.

    Any ideas how to change it?

    Cheers

    You get the 5GB when the person using your link visits the link in the confirmation email AND has installed the app. I'm waiting for 6 people to install :mad:

    I clicked the link last night and got my allowance. I'm just downloading the ios app so hopefully you will get it shortly!

    I just checked the referral status and I haven't got anything because people have either not installed or verified emails

    I dunno, I verified the email and got my extra 5gb from your referral and installed the app this morning. There's nothing more I can do.

    @Sweetie, Sorry I wasnt directing my posts at you :) I was just asking generally if anyone else was having any issues with it :)

    Thanks for clicking the link all the same, I am sure it will filter through.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭Neil_Sedaka


    I see on the copy.com support forum that some people were not getting their referral bonus, but posting on the forum got it sorted for them.

    Maybe try that?


  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 12,778 Mod ✭✭✭✭Zascar


    I used the fiverr link and now I have 230gb! Wohoo!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,050 ✭✭✭OU812


    OK, I've been talking to the guy who did mine on fiverr & he's going to do a deal if people mention me as a reference - "ou812 sent me" whereby extra space will be given, so go, spend a fiver (that's $5 - about €4) & get it ramped up. Mine took about three hours to complete.

    Don't forget to mention "ou812 sent me" or the extra space will not be allocated.

    isn't this a bit risky? Ive heard of people losing it after similar on dropbox. How much extra does he give as it's 200gb for $5 without any mention of you.
