I'm getting seriously annoyed.

I've registered and added £5 to my account but so far I've 'liked' two albums. Both have posted to my Facebook wall saying I found an Easter Egg and got the specified album for £1 or less, but in neither case has the price actually changed for me on the site.

I've tried waiting half an hour, unliking and reliking, and refreshing the page but to no avail.

I'm not willing to annoy my friends by spamming them on facebook all afternoon.

I'm very, very unimpressed.

If refreshing the page or closing your browser and going to that page again doesn't change the price, you should write CS. Others have said the CS does a good job of handling any problems.

Yup, apparently their customer service are excellent. I haven't had any problems since I switched to Firefox to make my orders. IE... sucks balls.

Did anyone have issues with playing the mp3s on their iPod?

All of the ones I've bought have been fine in iTunes, but when I transfer them to my iPod, a good amount of them didn't play - they just moved on to the next song. Today, for example, about 10 out of 14 Britney songs played, 7 out of 10 Noah and the Whale songs and only three out of 11 PJ Harvey songs. In contrast, all of the Sheryl Crow album played fine.

I tried deleting from iTunes, re-importing and re-syncing and it made no difference. The only thing that did work was re-encoding the mp3 using Goldwave - not a task I relish performing for over 400 mp3s I've downloaded from the site (and not one I should have to do either). When my credit expires, I doubt I'll bother again, which is a shame, since this was a great offer and their site is pretty decent.

Maybe try contacting their customer service [Which is excellent!] - I'v had no problems with any of the downloads playing on my iTunes, iPod or iPhone4 and i have download about 15 albums from them!

You can delete your posts from facebook. When I used my husband and son's accounts (for sign-up credits) I went into their facebook accounts and deleted everything from mflow. My teenager would not be impressed that I'd 'liked' the foo fighters :rotfl:

its a complicated cure but it worked for me.
in itunes, double click on the album your having trouble with, so it brings up the list in the album, then right click on a song and click on 'create a mp3' it will create another track, delete the original, and add new track to your ipod (after you have also deleted original from ipod!) hope this is understandable. it worked for me,.
convert the whole albums tracks and add as album might be quicker!

I got my issue sorted out, but by the time I did the offer had ended on a lot of the good stuff. I've been looking, but there's not a lot left that I want now. I can only hope more will yet be added.
