Did anybody request an invite for this?

68 replies

I requested an invite last week but so far had nothing. It says invites sent out between 22nd - 25th November, but nobody I know has received an invite either.

Did anybody else request one?

I didn't but it says invites sent between 22 and 25. Today is the 22, I wouldn't panic yet!?

No it will be a scam site to collect your data for a database.

I get where you’re coming from with the Facebook screenshot, but Amazon do invite-only deals within their own app including this one.

@Spirallingdownwards The link they posted goes directly to the Amazon website so you can request an invite

I thought they would have started sending out invites today

My dh has been banging on about this. I hope he doesn't get an invite!

I'm keeping my eye on my emails as I have requested an invite directly on the Amazon app when I've logged into my account. I've recently changed my email on my account so spoke to someone at Amazon today who said it's the system that sends the invite out and to just wait.

@yajustneverknow Let me know if you're lucky and get an invite! I doubt I will, by the sounds of it you'd have to be extremely lucky to be chosen at random out of thousands. Suppose it depends how much stock they have though

I will do. Yeah I don't think everyone will get invited, cause it says "if invited" so I won't receive an email as I'm not that lucy 😂

It is a legitimate offer, though I suppose that doesn't preclude scammers replicating the deal elsewhere and using it to draw people in in some way. I haven't seen it (until this post) advertised anywhere other than on the legitimate Amazon website, it's clearly something they're doing to drum up some excitement for Black Friday.

I didn't request an invite for this as I don't want a 50 inch TV, far too big for me, but did request one for the much smaller TV deals on the off-chance - not heard anything though and not really expecting to to be honest. I think there'll be very limited stock and it's more of a marketing ploy than anything else.

WhatWindyWeather · 23/11/2023 11:44

I requested the invite and haven't heard anything yet. Amazon have all my details anyway, so if they were going to scam me, they could anyway.

yajustneverknow · 23/11/2023 16:30

I requested an invite but not heard anything yet. My dh looked on his account and it was showing him that all invites have been claimed, so it might be a case of luck of the draw.

2PintsOfCidernaBagofCrisps · 23/11/2023 16:32

I requested for two different tv deals. No emails about either of them, yet. The probably only have three in stock 😅

BoohooWoohoo · 23/11/2023 16:34

It says invites all claimed

yajustneverknow · 23/11/2023 16:43

@BoohooWoohoo I wondered if that just means no one else can request an invite? Or whether it means all the deals have been taken.

marshmallowfinder · 23/11/2023 16:55

Very obviously a scam OP.

@marshmallowfinder How is it a scam? You request an invite directly through Amazon website/app.

@BoohooWoohoo It doesn't say that on mine but that might be because I've already requested an invite.

Hi I emailed Amazon as I work for them they said I will be receiving a invite so it’s not a scam it’s legit and I think it’s just a waiting game but you only get 8 hours from the invite to then buy it hopefully soon we will all get the to lol x

yajustneverknow · 23/11/2023 22:34

@Antoniaaaxx do you think you've been told you'll get invite cause you work for them, as in priority. I spoke to someone at Amazon earlier who said it's basically a raffle from those that have requested an invite.

Nobody I know IRL has got an invite so far

I think all the invites may have actually been sent and claimed now going off what it says on the website

I’m not sure if it’s because of Amazon on the email it said ‘I will definitely receive a invite to buy this product’ I did mention I worked there in the email but they didn’t mention it. I’m not sure if it’s a lucky dip with who gets a invite I was thinking it was like a pre sale where you ask for a invite n they cut it off when everyone who’s recquested is the same amount as the product kind of thing we will just have to wait and see I’ve been checking my emails every couple of hours and nothing yet fingers crossed it isn’t a luck of the draw but who knows
