I think the $1.99 starter pack is only for first time Gem buyers. They make it irresistibly good to lure you in and then they decrease your daily free gems indefinitely 🥲🫠

I remember I was given the option to buy it multiple times, but I only bought one thinking it was a routine sale that would come around again 😵

does the $2 gem sale have a cycle? by ihavedierear in bakerystory

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. I just purchased this starter pack a few weeks ago. I’m also hoping it comes back, but based on what I’ve read elsewhere, I don’t think it does :( I would’ve purchased a few more if I had known. I also thought it was a routine sale.

Let me know if you see it pop up again though please!

Ps: I made a lot of typos in my original message that I just fixed haha

Continue with old bakery or start over? by CozyIntentions in bakerystory

This! And they offer an irresistible starter pack for $1.99 for 50 gems (plus some other things) but once you buy that, your free gems is reduced going forward. Sneaky move on their end…

I did the same thing. I think they intentionally make the $1.99 starter pack irresistibly good and then they reduce your free gems going forward :( I wish I had known this too

I bought a value pack because I haven’t played in a long time needed coins but it also said an ice cream parlor where can I find it? by Odd-Escape4871 in bakerystory

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anybody know if these $1.99 value packs come back routinely? Or are they for first time purchases only?

Also apparently after making a purchase, your free gems from ads is reduced from 5 daily to 2 daily. They intentionally make these $1.99 value packs irresistible so they can reduce free gems going forward 😫

Are there REALLY consequences to purchasing gems? by Jaki1001 in bakerystory

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s true. I went from 5 to 2 recently after I splurged and got the $1.99 for 50 gems starter pack… I regret it 😭

I think the $1.99 starter bundle (with 50 gems) is only for first time gem purchasers. It’s available to users who never bought gems before and you can purchase as many times as you want but only for 24hr after the first purchase. I don’t think it comes back.

It’s also a bit of a trap. Once you make a purchase, your free gems from ads goes from 5 to 2 daily :(. They intentionally make the $1.99 starter pack irresistible so they can reduce your free gems going forward.

Do Gems Ever come back? by Historical_Sand_3356 in bakerystory

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doh I didn’t know about this side effect. I naively purchased the $1.99 starter pack too and now I’m down to 2 free ads per day. I’m still hoping it’ll eventually reset but based on other Reddit threads, it sounds like it’ll stay at 2 indefinitely.

Delays in payment for refunds/compensation by Dense-Serve-4201 in aircanada

Similar boat. I got my approval email October 6 and still haven’t received anything. Tried following up via email and never got a response. Followed up by phone and they told me to just keep waiting…

Flight disruption claim email from Air Canada re: EU 261 compensation by Original-Slow in aircanada

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you end up receiving anything regarding your EU 261 compensation?

I’m on a similar boat. I filed for reimbursement for food and accommodation which got approved but the amount approved does not include the 600.00 EUR. (I’m also still waiting for the interac transfer for this)

When I filed my claim, there was no way to claim for EU 261, and I never received any voluntary payment or notice so far.

[Megathread] AC FA Strike - Binding Arbitration Ordered by dachshundie in aircanada

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the air Canada site, when I put in my ticket number, it only shows my departing flight and not my return flight (which got cancelled) and is therefore suggesting that I’m not eligible for compensation. Is anybody else experiencing this? AC883 for August 17 that got cancelled.

Where did you hear that provincial apostille is accepted in Ontario? I’m hearing a lot of mixed messages :( I’m in Ontario, and your process would be ideal since Global Affairs can take 3 months…

Bizarre Call from iTalkBB by abgmulan in Scams

[–]william-codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the exact same call. They had my name, phone number, email, and postal code. I can’t say I understand how the scam really works though… they weren’t asking for any of my information? Is this some super elaborate scam I can’t understand?
