I dont understand how this scheme runs alongside the normal Punch Card system. If I buy 2 games, how will BFG know which scheme it is for?? headscratch

Well, if you buy games this month, you will get punches on your punch card if you are a Game Club member. And then, for everyone who has bought 1 CE or 2 regular games this month, they are also going to send those folks a coupon code as well. I don't think anything is going to get mixed up but rather that it will be tallied separately. We will see how it goes. It's certainly a nice offer. smile

My problem is I bought 3 games but with coupon codes. Two were punch card rewards third was a gift since I couldn't get one of their games to work at all.

It is my understanding that games purchased with coupon codes/punch card codes will still count towards your getting a free game next month with this offer. smile

Here's what was posted on the Big Fish forums in regards to this:

Quote:
This promotion is open to all Big Fish customers, regardless if you're an active Game Club member or not.

- Purchases made towards this promotion will also count as punches on the May Punch Card for Game Club members.

- Discounted games also qualify as purchases. This includes the Daily Deal, Catch of the Week, and any other games purchased with a coupon code, Game Club credit, or other discount.

- Redeeming the coupon code after it is received the first week of June will also add a punch to your Punch Card.

FYI, for more info, I just found this at BigFish.

Quote:
Have a question about the Buy 2 Get 1 Free May promotion?

In the month of May, purchase two games or one Collector's Edition and get another game free of charge! To see how to qualify, just take a look at the details below.
Here's how it works:

Buy any two (2) standard version games or one (1) Collector's Edition in May and get a free game coupon delivered by email in the first week of June.


We’ll be sending free game coupons the first week of June so be sure your email information is up to date and that you're subscribed to at least one newsletter at that time. Check out the Email Newsletters page for more information.


Limit one (1) coupon per customer.


You have the entire month of May to qualify!


Discounted games also qualify as purchases. This includes the Daily Deal , Catch of the Week, and any other game purchased with a coupon code, Game Club credit, or other discount.


Redeeming your free game coupon will also add a punch to your Big Fish Game Club Monthly Punch Card!


Purchases made towards this promotion will also count as punches on the May Punch Card for Game Club members.


Coupons will be emailed in the first week of June and will expire two (2) months after issue date.

Before purchasing games, we encourage you to first play the free trials (when available) to ensure that your game purchases will be both enjoyable and compatible.


Hope this helps. smile

Hi,

I still have one question: if I filled a punch card in May, will I get 2 coupons, one - for a punch card and the second - promotional for the 2 games? Thanks.


Why resist temptation? There will always be more. Don Herold.

I just got an email with the coupon code we were going to receive in June for buying 2 regular games in May or 1 CE. Apparently Big Fish decided to start sending the codes out now, so check your email. happydance wave

Got mine too. Now I have 2 of them. I sure wish I could use them on CE, but they can only be used on a standard edition, is that correct?

That's correct, Tammy. The coupon code from this giveaway can only be used on a standard edition. wave

You should have received an additional coupon code via email if you purchased 1 CE or 2 regular games in May, so write to Customer Support. wave
