We get thousands of questions throughout the year from users asking us how they can claim a certain product for free so we figured it’s time we write a guide on how you actually claim free stuff online.
We update Gratisfaction UK on a daily basis so of course the first port of call is here, we suggest you take the following steps to make finding us easier.
1. Bookmark our website for future reference, that way you will never misspell our URL and always have quick and easy access to the latest free stuff.
2. With most people being on social media be sure to follow us there, all offers are posted to Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest which are all fantastic places for users to interact and talk freebies with one another.
When it comes to actually applying for freebies on our website we have tried to make it as clear as possible, we post the links, you click them and then you follow the instructions which normally leads to you clicking the GET FREEBIE button and visiting the page that is hosting the giveaway and free samples.
Once you have left our site to try and claim free stuff online its normally pretty straight forward, scroll around the page you have been sent to and look for the place to enter. Most websites require your name, email address, postal address and then occasionally a few more questions about you or the product you are after.
Never give your home phone number as there is always the possibility of nuisance calls, we suggest giving a mobile number so you can easily block or reject any calls you do not recognise. On top of this we suggest that every member that uses our website has an email specifically for freebies and competitions, the nature of claiming free samples results in many unwanted emails so by having an email for just freebies you can ignore most of them, although make sure you skim over them in case you have won the competition you entered.
Patience and persistence is key. We get many people stating their freebie has not arrived yet they are expecting it to be there after just a week or two when the fact is most UK freebies take at least a month to get from point A to B. If you still don’t have your products after a few months then we highly suggest you take this up with the company that you tried claiming the freebie from, remember we are just the middle man!
Not all freebies will be claimed. Of course not one single user on the Gratisfaction UK website has had every single freebie they have applied for turn up and the reason for this is most of the free samples and giveaways are capped at a certain limit. For example many of the freebies we post we state are limited to the first 10,000 people and with so many freebie hunters out there these can go quick!
We suggest you keep on applying on a daily basis for any freebie that appeals to you, by doing so you will increase the chances of the postman bringing you a little something from time to time. We have personally received hundreds of free samples in the post over the 2 years of Gratisfaction UK going live and that is through sheer persistence of applying for every single freebie we post.
We hope this Gratisfaction UK blog post has cleared a few things up for our readers and can be used as a guide of what to expect when trying to claim free stuff online.
