Rapidshare Silently Yanks Referral Money – No more EUROS guys, Stop using Rapidshare, Use other FREE Alternatives!
Rapidshare had a referral scheme offering upto 20 Euros per referral. They had a clever stock like fluctuating value for the points you earn. They had the scheme up for few months and they silently yanked it all of a sudden. They called it a service in testing phase but depleting the already accumulated points without notice is not acceptable! They earned all the referrals and finally decided to keep the referral ca$h – greedy **$*****.
Contact their support team at support@rapidshare.com and express your concerns and yeah, they still have their crappy rewards promo where you can exchange some of your referral points in exchange for their lousy merchandise, that too only once per lifetime per account – silly, isn’t it?
