   PlayFirst is giving out a code to get any game for $2.99 from either site. They say you have to already be a member but some people said they joined today and still got the coupon code.

   You know what I am going to say, lol. Yes, I got one. Actually two because I have two playfirst accounts. I never got anything free from Playfirst and $2.99 isn't that great of a deal considering I just got a free funticket from gamehouse.

   It is just to get you as a customer. When gamehouse went on twitter they gave us three free games.

   I hope gamehouse isn't going to have problems getting Playfirst games, but even if they do life goes on and there are plenty more games out there.

   I have a Playfirst freebie account. I am not subscribed to playpass nor have I ever been. I signed up for that site a while back to see what I could get for free on it.

   I got 2, because I have two accounts. They are both free. I forget I was signed up and I signed up for another account by accident. But $2.99 might not seem like a lot, but to me it is something.

   Yes 2.99 IS something, especially when more than one game catches the eye...
   That is why we can never beat free!

   I have to say I am really angry with BFg right now. Their new Games Manager has so many problems I couldn't download a purchased game today so I sent them an e-mail and just received a response that because of the holidays (which were over two weeks ago) there is a 5-7 business day wait for a response. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE.

   Yes, it is Terri. Doesn't Bigfishgames have a chat? I know that if you are in the club I think you could use it. I think you have to be in the club to use it, which kind of sucks. Real has a chat and you can use it with gamehouse too. I already have and they are really helpful.

    The holidays were over 2 weeks ago but in the US, Monday is a holiday again - Martin Luther King Day. I've had many a time received notices of possible long delays in responses and then found the response much faster.

    Just before Christmas I reported a possible False Positive to Avira and just got the response this week. They say they report in about 1 business day so this is the OTHER extreme.

    Yes Michelle they have a Live Chat if you are a member. I had cancelled my membership several days ago before they charged my card. I was going to buy a game to rejoin so I could use Live Chat but guess what? I couldn't buy a game because of the Games Manager and couldn't contact them. Talk about costing themselves money.

    Anyway I solved the problem by uninstalling the Games Manager and redownloading it. It took me half a day to install one game. I think customers shouldn't have to go to so much trouble to buy or download an already purchased game. I don't know if it's because of the merger but they need to get their act together.

    You know what I would say. Join gamehouse and get rid of bigfishgames, but gamehouse doesn't have a $2.99 a game everyday and I think that is why most people use bigfishgames instead of someone else. Also I heard bigfishgames support wasn't too bad and in my experience when I inquired about something about a year ago or so it wasn't, but I like gamehouse's support too and everytime I asked for a free game except once they gave it to me and the one time that they didn't was on an authorization charge (I thought I was overcharged and wasn't).

    I just purchased Fishdom the other day that way.

    I think with BFG like other companies some Customer Service people are better than others. They said this is an unusual circumstance because of the holidays and illnesses but I think they are turning off a lot of people (except the diehard "they can do no wrong" members) with the long delays in responding to complaints or questions. The main reason I was so upset and the point that seems to be escaping them is that I ALREADY BOUGHT THE GAME and they are telling me I just have to wait until they are ready to tell me how to be able to play it. The problem is obviously stemming from their new Games Manager and a lot of people are having problems with it so that is another reason the wait is so long. In other words - they created this mess. They should have waited until it was thoroughly tested before they started using it.

    Terri, you can PM the developer of the game manager with your problems at BFG's forum:

    Hope it helps.

    I just went to BFG and there was a Private Message for me from the developer. He had seen my post and responded. That goes a long way toward resolving my frustration.
