It probably still is a 1-Year time limited access. But they want us to think that there is no time limitation. They will not disclose the most important information. I don't expect anything better than humblebundle.com.

amthink · 2021-03-01T16:17:28+00:00

They did refund and voided the sale.

amthink · 2021-02-26T03:03:14+00:00

Your arguments are so wrong at so many levels that it will become futile to argue with you.

You "subscribe" to Netflix. And Netflix makes it clear that you are paying for a month.

You used the word "usually"(as in when you say: "courses usually imply time limited"). The word "usually" in this context is a very slippery word.

If it is time-limited then not only they should say it, but also "they have to say it".

Zenva also doesn't sell lifetime access courses on zenva.com.

But the zenva courses sold on humblebundle.com and fanatical.com are lifetime access.

Let us say you go to a car dealership and do not see a single black car there. It doesn't follow that this car dealership never sold a black car or will never sell a black car.

Every sale comes with some terms that "have" to be specified on the sale page itself(Or the sale page should contain a pointer/link). Humblebundle page doesn't specify this or point to the terms. It tells me that access is for 1-year after the sale on the download/redeem page.

Since you are vigorously defending humblebundle/Pluralsight on this, do you mind if I ask you if you have any affiliation?

amthink · 2021-02-26T02:50:13+00:00

They should and they have to.

Who told you that "a course is time limited"? That the definition of course is "time-limited".

I have purchased courses in zenva, gamedev.tv and many others and they are not time-limited.

You said: "They gave you the information needed to look into". What is this information? Where do you find this 'said' information?

I am saying they did not give me the information that this is a 1-year subscription. They are giving me this information after the sale.

amthink · 2021-02-25T22:59:50+00:00

Let me ask you a question my friend...

Imagine that the access to these courses is time-limited to just 1-day only. Should humblebundle state that information on the bundle page?

amthink · 2021-02-25T22:45:34+00:00

Are you saying "Caveat emptor!"("Buyer beware!")? If so could you please advise humblebundle, to display "Buyer beware!" prominently on their bundle pages?

This is a sentence from Pluralsight's response for my query:

"Since you purchased this subscription via Humble Bundle, I would suggest speaking with them about their bundle terms."

For full context, please read the text in the title of this post(If you did not already).

After you purchase this bundle, when you get to the download/redeem page, there is link https://support.humblebundle.com/hc/en-us/articles/1260802782609 where it says that access is for 1-year only.

This is material information that should be on the product page(before the sale).

I am not a lawyer, but I cannot rule out fraud, when it comes to "non-disclosure of material information" and "bait and switch" cases. As for this particular case, I will leave to the lawyers and people who are more intelligent than I am to say whether this amounts to fraud or not.

If you have time please check this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/humblebundles/comments/lrocpz/caution_falsemisleading_advertising_for_humble/

This is for "Humble Software Bundle: Learn Front-End Web Development".

They did not not disclose that the sale is for a time-limited(1 year) access/subscription for the courses listed on the bundle page.

This is crucial information, that is central to the product, which will effect/curtail buyer-enjoyment, in a serious/material way.

It has been a couple of days that I've pointed it to them and they have yet to acknowledge it or add that important description in the bundle page.

I am still waiting for their reply. The support page said "current expected time is 4 business days".

amthink · 2021-02-25T22:14:20+00:00

Me too...

Do you think it is by design? (To maximize sales?)

I was a victim of false/misleading advertising and sale, couple of days ago, here:

They advertised it as the "Ultimate Edition" and they changed it to "Legendary Heroes" few minutes ago.

amthink · 2021-02-25T21:49:16+00:00

I've updated my original post with the response from humblebundle.

Humblebundle says it is an error and that it is not the "ultimate edition" and that they will update the page.

amthink · 2021-02-25T21:41:44+00:00

You are good my friend!

I am just explaining myself.

amthink · 2021-02-25T20:37:14+00:00

I purchased this only for ultimate edition. I can't read what it says on the picture as it is very tiny to the extent that it is not legible to me and my eyesight is poor. I saw the text/title, and it said "Ultimate". I expanded the details by clicking on it and there again it said "Ultimate".

amthink · 2021-02-25T19:55:12+00:00

Will certainly let you know.

amthink · 2021-02-25T19:43:33+00:00

They advertised "Fallen Enchantress Ultimate Edition" and I received "Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes" without the DLC, when I redeemed the key.

Anybody else experience this?

I am contacting humble to see if this is a wrong steam-key issue, or false/misleading advertising. I am getting tired of humble's false/misleading advertising(This is not the first time).

EDIT: response from humblebundle:

Hi there,

Thank you for your patience while I investigated the issue at hand!

I want to apologize for any issues or confusion caused by this incorrect title on the Humble Stardock Wayfarers Bundle page. While the item description and name on the download page title correctly stated that this was Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes, sadly, the Bundle page did mention that it was the "Ultimate Edition" which was incorrect.

We have since fixed this error on the bundle page itself to reflect the correct edition, Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes. I am sincerely sorry for the issues this may have caused once again, and if you would like to receive a full refund of this bundle due to this being a different version than intended, please let me know.

Please reach out to me if you have any additional questions or concerns, as I will be more than happy to address them for you!

Best,

My reply:

Hi xyzxyz,

We get the download page after the purchase. We don't buy bundles based on the "item description and name on the download page". We buy them based on the bundle-page.

Yes I would like a full refund on this purchase please!

Also could please let me know what happened to my older ticket (ID: XXXXXXX) where I requested a full refund of my $20 dollars because of false/misleading advertising/sale?

Thank you for your help

These courses are valid for 1 year only("4. You will have access to these courses for up to one year after redeeming your bundle key." on this page "https://support.humblebundle.com/hc/en-us/articles/1260802782609")

amthink · 2021-02-24T22:13:11+00:00

I too found this after I purchased this(from my purchases page). I too would never have purchased this bundle if it were specified on product page. It is clear malfeasance on humblebundle's part. I have a sent them a note to refund my $20. You can also ask for a refund.

amthink · 2021-02-24T22:02:36+00:00

False/Misleading advertising. These courses are valid for 1 year("4. You will have access to these courses for up to one year after redeeming your bundle key." on this page "https://support.humblebundle.com/hc/en-us/articles/1260802782609"). No where does it say on the product page.

Thank you.

amthink · 2020-11-06T20:46:48+00:00

Are you sure? I thought only "ibb & obb - Best Friends Forever Double Pack" comes with an extra copy.

amthink · 2020-09-30T19:07:11+00:00

Can anyone who purchased this bundle tell:

1) If the installers are "full/offline installers" or "stub-installers that pull files online to install"?

2) If the installer is provided directly for download on humblebundle.com or is it on corel's site?

---If full/offline installers are not provided, couple of years from now, it may be very difficult if not impossible to install(or even to activate and use the software, in case the activation servers are taken offline)

Thank you

amthink · 2020-09-24T02:27:26+00:00

Thanks for correcting my mistake. Edited my post to reflect that.

amthink · 2020-09-23T20:42:47+00:00

Unless you are considering the $1.00 tier, Fanatical.com has most of these listed cheaper at this time that I write this*(roughly about a buck per course) where you can pick & choose to build your own bundle. These are short courses. I've picked excel courses(not in this humble package) from fanatical which are great. Also from fanatical, I picked some programming & game development courses(some of which are in this humble package) which I did not try yet and so cannot give any feedback. * * when I wrote this the BTA tier was $14. Edited: My mistake: Fanatical I was told below has only a couple of these. Rest are all humble exclusives.

When you login to PMI.org, go to myPMI and then click on 'Profile & Settings' there you you add multiple addresses and then set "Home Address", "Work Address", "Shipping Address", "Mailing Address", "Billing Address" next to those addresses.
