Web site carries BBB logo. However, their Contact info does not appear on Columbia BBB's Web site.
H
Web site offers FREE Kodak Digital Camera. I signed up with AOL, one of their sponsors. On that page it clearly says: " (Final Step - Sponsor Participation)." That page also says, "Complete a second offer from this page and get FREE* Printer Docking Station ($ 179.00 Value) when you redeem your Kodak Digital Camera!" I did not choose that option.

The next page is entitled TOP OFFERS PAGE 2, with the idential instructions: " (Final Step - Sponsor Participation)" and "Congratulations! To qualify for your FREE* Kodak Digital Camera continue by fully completing* any of the top offers listed below!" This rather clearly gives the impression that there are other options in addition to the ones on the previous page. So I clicked NEXT.

They NOW tell me in their online status section (not the advertising Web site):
"Required Action Points: 6
Action Points Earned: 1
Action Points Needed: 5."

There is nothing about the need to earn 5 more "action points" on their Web site. It further states, "You will be awarded 1 action point for each unique offer you complete. Keep in mind that you may complete each offer only once. Remember that you need a total of 6 action points to get your free gift. You may reach your total of 6 action points through any combination of offer completions by you or your referrals." THIS IS FALSE AND MISLEADING ADVERTISING.

HERE IS THEIR REPLY:
1) Register with a valid email address and other demographic information;
2) Accumulate 3 action points, by completing one offer in EACH of "Top Offers" groups;
3) Complete and return our Redemption Request form that is available in the member area after you have earned the necessary action points.

You must earn at least one action point from EACH of the "Top Offers" groups to qualify for the free gift item for which you registered. You may complete an additional offer in any of the groups to secure your eligibility for a bonus gift item. Additionally, you can become eligible for a $25.00 gift card bonus by submitting at least three qualifying referrals to our refer-a-friend program. Please note that you must make your bonus gift selections on the Redemption Request form when it is originally submitted. Bonus gifts may only be redeemed at the same time as the original gift item for which you registered.

You may check your redemption status at anytime by signing in at the following website:
