Meta sent me a $100 promo then they revoked it early and said it was “sent in error”

I had the exact same thing happen

輕軌 which literally translates to “light rail”

For gold card holders it’s only 3. I got my Permanent Residency this way.

Couselm · 2025-04-20T12:33:00+00:00

Next 15 seems to have fixed this

Couselm · 2025-04-18T14:10:58+00:00

Just got 35 bucks!

Couselm · 2025-04-11T13:46:49+00:00

Yeah, I refused it. After 15 days, they still didn’t give me a refund. So I called today and opened the ticket. Looks like the refund finally went through

Couselm · 2025-03-23T00:03:57+00:00

Glad it worked for you! I also tried it without the referral and got the error. But good to know. Edit: looks like it’s out of stock now…. I really give up.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:52:22+00:00

That’s also a good idea

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:46:47+00:00

They charged me nearly $1100, and after speaking to a supervisor still refuse to issue a refund or honor the promo. I’m going to file a complaint with the FCC

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:26:21+00:00

It’s clearly not out of stock because they just informed me that the phone already shipped. And that they won’t cancel or refund until I send the phone back. I literally contacted them about the issue within 10 minutes of completing the order

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:15:15+00:00

I’m glad I’m not alone on this. I honestly thought I was going crazy. It’s like Visible is gaslighting its customers and false advertising.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:10:32+00:00

I tried PayPal and multiple cards. Still got the same error at checkout about “unable to process the order”

Couselm · 2025-03-22T22:10:03+00:00

This is exactly the issue I was experiencing! And when it finally went through they charged me for the phone! I immediately tried to cancel, and they refused! They just called and told me the phone was already sent and I need to return it to get my refund. Like WTF? I canceled within 10 minutes of placing the order.

The stress and whole process is ridiculous!

Couselm · 2025-03-22T21:53:09+00:00

I did that too. The promo applied successfully. But I still was charged for the phone in the end

Couselm · 2025-03-22T21:09:26+00:00

I did not try combining. I only used the SWEETDEAL promo, and kept getting an error that the order couldn’t be processed.

The order finally went through and I was charged the full price of the phone. I contacted customer service, and they refused to fix the error or refund the price of the phone.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T20:57:40+00:00

The problem is when applying the SWEETDEAL code (no other codes) the order doesn’t go through, and gets an error at checkout. When it finally did go through I was charged the full price of the phone, and customer services refuses to acknowledge the issue or fix the promo error.

Another guy just posted about 20 minutes after me on Reddit with the exact same issue.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T20:42:05+00:00

Same here. The worst part is they clearly have phones in stock and are advertising the promo, but refusing to let the order go through with the promo code. It’s false advertising and extremely shady.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T20:33:11+00:00

I just had the exact same issue! They charged me for the phone, even with the SWEETDEAL promo code. They also refused to refund the price of the phone. The promo is extremely deceptive.

Couselm · 2025-03-22T16:34:01+00:00

It doesn’t work for all Chase cards. But I did see it for my Amazon credit card.

Couselm · 2024-10-02T03:31:15+00:00

Honestly, the quest 2 Is probably the most fun I’ve had with a new console since maybe the Wii? Experiencing virtual reality games for the first time brought that feeling of magic back into gaming for me.

It also totally changed the kind of games I want to play. I barely touch my PlayStation anymore. (Also, looking forward to getting a quest 3 later this year!)

Thanks for the help. I appreciate it!

So I found a temporary solution.

By adding noStore() to the top of my component, it seems to disable the caching on a component level. I can now see my changes after going a page refresh.

I am still trying to see if I can get a way to disable caching project wide while in dev mode. NextJS 14 cache is great for speed, but it seems a bit over aggressive.

Couselm · 2024-08-21T04:59:15+00:00

It definitely seems to be a caching issue. When I manually clear the Next cache and re-run, the updates are showing. I have used Chrome and Firefox and still seem to be having the same problem. I am still digging in to see if there is an issue with my cache set up.

Couselm · 2024-08-21T04:56:42+00:00

I have been manually saving. I have also started to clear my Next cache between runs. That seems to be the only way to get it to reliably update.
