Apple Offering Free Year to Affected MobileMe Customers

I still think that 1% means 99% affected and 1% unaffected.

Roll on the mountain loads of "affected" users who are just trying to score a free ride...

Now I wish I was one of the affected ones..

Wow. That's nice of 'em. And to think at the time that my email wasn't working I thought it was a bad thing... :rolleyes:

That's ridiculous. People who lost their data because of MobileMe should get a full refund, no questions asked. If I were in the situation and Apple offered me more pain for another year I would feel insulted.

Good to see longer compensations times for those affected. Hope they all get a year for free. If it improves and works like its supposed to then im glad for them. I have just signed up for the free trial. Have to october to see how it works out...:D

Good to know that something is being done to compensate.

MobileMe is a great service, and will get better. I was one of the 99% *not* affected by the rocky launch. 3.25 hrs of email outage during the wee hours of the morning was all. And a free month of service. I'm not complaining.

Good to know that something is being done to compensate.

I emailed them (from my gmail account obviously) on days 3, 4 and 5 I think asking that they refund and cancel my account, but they couldn't be bothered with any decent customer service. MobileMe is crap, in my experience, sooner my accounts lapse the better as far as I'm concerned.:mad:

...3.25 hrs of email outage during the wee hours of the morning... ...I'm not complaining.

I was without email/contacts for 4 or 5 days, I am complaining... not that it'll do any good.

Just goes to show why Apple is far beyond all it's competitors.
Anyone can be too ambitious and have a snafu,
but Apple backs it up
like no other company.
And to all the whiners who think that Apple should have dropped everything they were doing, during those first 3-5 days,
to handle their complaints; grow up. Your parents may think you are God's gift, but (shhhh) you're not!
