Woke up this morning to an email that is or makes out is from Zwift offering me free play controllers ( just pay shipping) as a reward for hitting level 85
Strange thing is, I already have play controllers and I’m level 98!
@shooj is this a thing, or is there some way of reporting a scam?
Got this mail as well. Just go directly to the shop and type the code manually in. Don’t click on any links inside the mail. If it works, you’re good to go.
I just went directly to the Zwift shop and added the controllers and discount code and got the same result.
My RH controller in my current set plays up occasionally and keeps me steered over to the right out of the draft until I restart it. These will be a spare set.
I’m wondering if the sale is more to increase uptake rather than refresh.
I do like the controllers, but sometimes feel guilty using them in races or groups against non steerers as they definitely give advantages to jump clear or drop a wheel sucker.
It sounds to me like the emails have been sent to everyone who is at least level 85. I.e. Zwift decided to send out a promotion to everyone eligible, just that the wording could have perhaps been better.
This promo is going to go down really well with those of us who should be way higher than level 85, but are being held back and getting accelerated XP.
TBF that is a good point. Another thing where the left hand & right hand of zwift are not aligned.
Much like if you are a Level 85 in Australia, NZ, Canada or other countries where they are not available. You don’t get the offer and therefore subsidising the offer to other users in countries that can receive them.
I’m level 84.5 Probably hit 85 tomorrow during the Epic Race.
I was able to read the blacked out code in the initial post on my iPad just by enlarging it. But i strongly suspect they are unique and user-linked, so sharing likely won’t work.
