Singtel Wavee

I wish I had read all of your reviews before I became subject to this scam. As another writer said, he gave his personal info and all of a sudden, he was charged with a bill. They just sent me an email stating there are no refunds. As a consumer, you have 3 days to cancel. I have in that process now and hopefully, they will comply. They give you no information that you will be charged. They said to me it is clearly stated on both sides of the beginning. No it is not, they need to give people a warning that from this point on, they will be charged.

How does one know that there is a real person or persons that you are bidding against. It could be a computer. We do not know.

To all of you who have been duped like I was. I got all my money back after a good fight. Follow these: 1.stop payment by your credit card
File a strong report to your State Attorney General. 3. file a strong report to Atlanta BBB. 4. File a strong report to Federal Trade Commission.
Always make the POINT strongly that this is an UNLICENSED GAMBLING SITE and not an AUCTION SITE. Also threaten to take them to local small claims court.

This site is great! For all you so called customer service reps at wavve! You suck! I hope you sleep at night knowing that you guys constantly rip people off! I ordered a xbox for my son on december 7 2010 and it clearly says that it can take 2-3 weeks for processing and then 2-4 for shipping! LOL! Its been a month and i still havent recieved it. Now they say it will be delivered on January 20,2011 what a joke i will never use this auction again... what a scam!

I have read many reviews from unhappy Wavee.com users. The most common comments were "It's a Scam" and "I didn't know they were going to bill my credit card right away". When I visited the site, I simply watched for a while to see what the "protocol" was. I read the agreement terms in detail and was prepared to spend the initial (non-refundable) $75 for 120 bid tokens (they call credits) just to see if I could get in on some of the apparent "Deals" that were shown. I signed up, they billed my CC for the $75 and I began bidding. I started slow, bid on a few "credit packs" to increase my pool of credits. I won an additional 120 credits, spending less than 20 of my initial credits in the process. So now, armed with just over 220 credits, I started bidding on real items. I won a Black & Decker Stainless Steel Coffee Grinder valued at $19.95 for 75 cents and spent 12 credits in the process (free credits so far). I then won a Linksys Wireless Broadband Router valued at $79.99 for $1.75 which took 20 credits (still working on the free ones). OK, time to move up to the big stuff... I began bidding on an Apple MacBook Air computer. This is where things got a bit tougher. There are many more people bidding on the "high ticket" items than there were for the previous ones. To make a very long story short, I spent a total of 32 hours on the site (getting a bit of sleep at intervals along the way), I blew the credits I had accumulated and had to buy 120 more for an additional $75 because I wasn't about to give up on the time and money I had invested thus far. I finally DID WIN the MacBook Air, valued at $1,199.00 for $347.17 and it took almost all of my remaining credits to win. I saved over $700 in all but the experience was a lesson learned. It takes a great deal of time (the higher cost item, the more time you need to allocate), LOTS of patience, credits and yes, lots of LUCK to win. You have to be smart in your bidding (I laid back in the weeds for a long time, waiting until the savings reached 60% before bidding heavily) and above all, you really need to be LUCKY so that everyone else gives up before you do. Now that I've used my credits, I'm done with Wavee.com and the stress and hassle that goes along with trying to win things for a great price. Was it worth my time? Well... the jury is still out on that one. I have received the Coffee Grinder, I expect the Router within the next couple of days, and if the MacBook Air arrives within the next week or so, then the whole experience will ALMOST be worth it. I won't be using Wavee.com ever again so in hindsight, maybe it wasn't. My advice to you: Be aware of what you're getting yourself in to before you start. Good Luck!

I was definitely not thrilled to see another scam-like penny auction. But I must admit that I like their color scheme. Also the setup of the site is very futuristic. I think that I would like to take this site and just use it for something more constructive. Like a charity platform for trekkies:)

Also what is the deal with wavee, these days companies seem content to dumb us down with phrases like, biggie, trekie, and other ee's. What happened to more creative names?

I just saw this site on facebook - you think if it's on facebook it's legit right? I mean they're such a proper website with so many rules - can't say this, can't add people you "don't know", can't make any racist comments. So i opened the website seeing what it's all about after they showed a juice digital camera on their ad - it looked innocent enough - then they said $179 fee, which i thought, well that'd be fair if you could win something good... then i googled "wavee.com feedback" and got this site - you have no idea how much a site like this adds value to the whole internet universe - obviously this site is a scam and it makes me so angry to read the reviews that I'm going to lodge a complain with facebook and try to take out this scumbag company - thanx

I guess I got "lucky" by only being charged the inital $48 for bid credits. What gets me is all bids seem to go through, except the ones where you could possibly win; then you get a "bid cannot be processed. You are not logged in", when of course I am (how could I bid if I wasn't?) I did the math on the bids, and this company makes $15,000 if the bids total $200.00, minus the cost of what someone "wins". Since there is absolutely no way to check if the "winner" is a real person, this site has my vote as one of the biggest scams going. Wish I would have found this site before I spent my $48! I find the most amazing part of this whole thing is that nobody will do anything to stop this kind of fraud; you can file all the complaints in the world and drive yourself crazy about it, but in the end, no government agency that COULD do anything about it will. We're on our own, and I guess the old saying "Let the buyer beware" still holds true.

As some people already said, it is trying to lure people to purchase $179 credit package. There wasn't any confirm page that you will purchase that credits. Also, email customer service, had to wait more then 48 hours (as stated 24-48) to get a non sense reply email. Their process of bidding is very QUESTIONABLE. After trying to bit few items, I notice that many times the word "PROCESSING..." stands there for about two seconds (the clock runs down to 0 for two seconds). It seems to wait for others to bid rather than letting the last bidder won. I also happened to won one and got the credit charged but it has been more than 10 days, the item is still in processing, not ship yet. When I won that item, the clock stood on 0 for less than a second and I won. I think they set it up to let you win and also, who know that they would have a fake bidder just to raise the bid. Don't joint this site. WAVEE is SCAM.

This is a fake auction site which is criminal or very misleading at best. Everyone who bids is paying for the items which is not actually an auction cause you lose your money even if you don't win. You are led to believe that the price is going up a penny at a time but its actually going up at a rate of. 75 cents so if 10 people bid 10 times each that $7.50 each which is a total of $75. For a simple $25 gift card. 98% off my assets. Do not sign up! I repeat "DO NOT SIGN UP! I lost my money and hopefull this will deter anyone else from getting scammed.

It takes a lot of strategy and late nights to win. Good luck on receiving your items. I won 4 items. The gift card was shipped after 3 weeks. The casio watch took 2 months. I am still waitn on the other 2 items. I have repeatedly emailed them several times and the responded once that the item was being processed. After 3 months I called them and they said that it was because if the holidays and they were backed up. The changed my estimated ship date from December to Jan 5. It is now Jan 18 and I haen't received the items. I contacted them today and was irate. I told them this was unreasonable and the rep put me on hold then hung up on me. When I tried to call back their was an estimated wait of 12 minutes. I am just going to write off my losses. If I get the items in the next decade so be it. The also gave me 30 free credits. I guess that's just to entice me, but it will only aggravate me more. So I won't attempt tom bid any more.
