Congrats to LowEndBox Giveaway Winners!

The LowEndBox Subscriber Giveaway drawing yesterday and by random chance, it appears that [email protected] won every single prize! Wow! What are the odds?!?

image

The LowEndBox Subscriber Giveaway winners were chosen by sorting all confirmed mailing list members and then picking 13 random numbers via random.org.

If you won a prize you should have received an email a few minutes ago.

I'm not going to post emails here but I will post the names. Since the mailing list is not integrated with LET/LEB usernames, there isn't a correlation to accounts.

    It should work just has to be processed. The system is a little behind because of all the posts for BF but you should be removed within 48 hours~.

    Is it normal I still keep receiving emails today on LEB posts from 11/27? Most of the deals are for black friday. :confused: Unsubscribe didn't work either still keeps coming in.

    I had to click unsubscribe because it became even more annoying than random whatsapp message. + Email notifications are important so I have to check everytime it rings.

    Unsubscribe requests should be handled within 48 hours.

    Thanks for your reply. I was just letting you know and asking if this is working as intended as others may be encountering the same problem (New post emails every 15-60 min from old posts as early as 2 weeks ago)

    I would loved to have received some of these email posts when they're fresh not days after the sale. : D I hope the mail will stop in 48 hours will resubscribe after this issue has been resolved. Keep up the good work~

    actually if we can have a preference for subscription like

    • send all notification
    • send once a day

    that would be great and inbox friendly too.

  • Yes. Confirming. I still receive emails of days ago. The offers are best when served fresh, like vegetables.

    Also would have been an interesting to see a summary of multiple Black Friday offers in just a single email. Personally, I would have loved to receive on Black Friday morning a single email message, with multiple great offers created just for subscribers of LEB - now that would have made me feel special, not some 1% chance to get a router or SBC.

  • I also got those LEB newsletter emails from the past. Would also love to get them served fresh and less often.

  • jbilohjbiloh Administrator, Veteran

    The intention of the email system was to send updates of new offers for Black Friday within one hour of their posting. The problem is the subscribers list grew so quickly and we had so many offers (over 30) that we began hitting our hourly send limits. That means there began to grow a multi dya back log of sending. And that's why you may be getting emails from an offer from a day or two ago.

    Lesson learned on this. We will do better next year and will certainly have plenty of improvements made over the course of the next few months on this project.

    Thanks for everyone's understanding. :)
