They already nerfed the Slaad, they just need to bind them to account and make them [Account-Wide] already. This is ridiculous. Give me what we agreed to as per your offer PWE. Otherwise I will NEVER partake in any other offers for ANY of your other games again.
I don't want a refund either.

Wow, this is very disappointing. I did not participate in this promo as it was very expensive.
Not giving the people who did what was originally promised seems wrong. Either do the account unlocks or refund the money spent and let them keep the single items.....
Well, the NCL folks sort of got their rewards. Wonder when we will get ours.

I assume everyone still has just one phase spider (I only qualified for slaad), which means they haven't even successfully delivered the reward they said they would deliver after they said they were unable to deliver the original advertised reward.
Convoluted much?
As for the lack of Vanilla tagging this thread as having new posts, it does that to a lot of threads. It doesn't track your read posts particularly well either.

Yes, I still only have one Phase Spider, along with 5 Scorpions and 5 Slaads. The "compromise" that was announced when the promo was retroactively changed was 3/3/3, which was implemented as 3/1/3 for many people, if not all. I'm not sure who decided to bump it up to 5/1/5, as there was no official word that I ever saw. Even five of each is in no way equal value (for me, at least) to the account-wide unlocks that were promised and posted for almost a week.
I'll continue to haunt this thread until a resolution is announced. My faith in a satisfactory solution is dwindling rapidly. Very disappointing.

I actually got 2 Phase Spiders - because that was a companion I knew would go to my Drow chars first, I withdrew that one in order to test whether the disappointing perspective at the reward claims agent implied what I feared.
When the "compromise" upgrade was dished out, I got a new one.
i think they were given enough time to address this. we should consider that they will do nothing about this any more. they will let this be forgotten. too bad some people have good memory.
They might look in to it once other high priority things are finished (mod 7 release is taking most of their time, so i wouldnt expect anything until then)
This is a very simple fix. There is no reason why this should be taking so long, and now we don't even have the courtesy of someone coming to communicate with us at all, after we were promised a response. Very disappointing.

I guarantee that OUR liaison is ignoring this post and may have been misrepresenting the facts to all of you... to keep you on the hook. Hoping that this will all be forgotten about and everyone will spend more money when SH comes out.
What they don't realize... is that this may end up being the straw that broke the camel's back for a lot of their whales. People, often, do not realize that they actually needed their nose... until after they cut it off.

start of a new week? do you think we will get a response this week?
Hope springs eternal!
Or, as suggested above, start posting responses to facebook offer announcements explaining this situation (with links to the ad and the thread) to make sure it gets proper visibility and so they know that we still care.
it has been 2 weeks since you told these lovely peers of mine that an answer would be reached and shared with the entire community by the middle of that week. FYI... this is not looking good for anyone related to this.
I am glad I learned my lesson earlier.

I haven't even touched the companions because I've been hoping that something would be done. With Mod7 coming out in about 3-4 weeks, is there any way that I can just get my 10K Zen back, since non-account-wide strikers aren't that attractive to me, TBH?

You would think Strumslinger would want to rectify this problem since his name is posted to it. All they're doing is rolling the blame on him for throwing it up without proof reading. I know in my business if my name is attached to it in any way it will be right or i'll pitch one huge fit.

Oh, with his usual breezy-styled attitude in relating bad news, I'm already amazed that the blame wasn't put on some pesky goblins...
Did Cryptic ever reimburse players, or correct this? I've seen some of the companions in the AH and was wondering if it was fixed and these are residuum from the immediate response, or if they just left it at the, "Its players' fault for believing us...". I didn't buy any of the account-unlock companions during this promo, so I'd like to know, before I spend my cash to earn/purchase (whatever you want to call it) anything else on this game: can I trust them?
They weren't honest regarding difficulty fixes; they weren't honest about XP gain/rewards; and in the midst of that cluster-f, this happened. The way it seems to have been left in this thread doesn't look any better to me regarding their creditability and has frozen my monetary investment in the game, more than the other two issues have frozen my time investment in playing.
At least I can work on refinement while I'm sitting around in Protector's Enclave, waiting for Strongholds - but, not if I don't buy the requisite stuff for it. Thus, I'm either stuck doing nothing until mid-August, or I'm at least given a reason to log in...

Nothing has changed in regards to this issue.
The initial "fix" was to provide three each for the pets you qualified for, however, that was not implemented correctly and people were given 3/1/3. Or so people have posted. Further, I've heard that if you had already claimed the phase spider, you got 1 on the reward vendor, resulting in 2 total?
However, that was still not as advertised. People want what was advertised in the promotion, or a refund of the $$ spent to get zen for the promotion.
The last any of us heard, it was still being discussed and we were to have a response by mid-week. That was two weeks ago (meaning, the promised mid week was two weeks ago).
In addition to the lack of response, some people have indicated that the reward number was bumped to 5, but the phase spider was still by its lonesome at 1. I cannot verify this, as I haven't logged in to check the vendor.
Other than that, in the meantime, the Death Slaad has been nerfed (which was expected, and not an issue).
*edit* Okay, I've logged in for the first time in the last few weeks. The reward vendor is showing me 4/1/4 (scorpion, spider, slaad) available for the companions. Since I've claimed 1 each on my TR, that means I've been given 5/2/5. So, what was written above is accurate.
I have been keeping on eye on this situation to determine if I will spend any more money on the game. But it is not looking good so far. This fix is a no brainer and should have been fixed a couple of weeks ago already.

Oh, I'm gonna be actively REMINDING people next time a promotion comes around. "Remember what happened with the companion promotion?"

And re. haunting this thread: I'll go along, too.
I'm guessing they also have a twitter feed, so that might be an avenue to get a response.
