    Are we pass 350 already? either way I've had good expriences buying from them so I filled in the survey anyways.

    • edmobile8 on 25/02/2013 - 11:40

      I don't know. I immediately posted when I got the email.

  • salem on 25/02/2013 - 11:35

    what platform? what version/iteration?

    • edmobile8 on 25/02/2013 - 11:39

      does not say. But most likely PC

        assasins creed 1? aka bargain bin for $2 assassins creed?

  • rgovind on 25/02/2013 - 11:35

    Done.. lets see if it works

  • Letrico on 25/02/2013 - 11:37

    nothing beats freebie

  • donga100 on 25/02/2013 - 11:39

    Hope I was fast enough.

  • wildstone on 25/02/2013 - 11:39

    They should really put counter there in order to let us know if it is genuinely first 350 surveyors. I do see a problem with people stop filling the form after it passes 350 though.

    • mily on 25/02/2013 - 11:47

      In such case, they will only receive 350+ feedbacks. But the intention is to get as many feedbacks as possible for the same number of games given away.

      • donga100 on 25/02/2013 - 11:48

        They also have a competition to win a few other gadgets for those completing the survey.

  • Click_It on 25/02/2013 - 11:41

    Thanks, done.

    Wonder if the 350 has been chewed up yet? Must be damn close…

    • alvian on 25/02/2013 - 12:06

      At the end of the survey, it said to watch their Facebook page for announcement of the winners.

      What's Facebook?

      • Click_It on 25/02/2013 - 13:46

        According to one gentleman on Urban Dictionary it is this:

        The reason why I'm divorced
        Husband: Honey let's talk.
        Wife: In a minute…I'm on Facebook.

        Maybe the husband is CentreCom? I'm not sure. Your guess is as good as mine…

  • ElectroGhoul on 25/02/2013 - 11:47

    Also done. Lets see how this pans out…

    'When do you normally watch tv?' and one of the options is 'on the drive home'. Although I guess if you have tv streamed through your phone or tablet then it could work….odd choice though!

    This is one of the worst surverys I've ever seen, especially the marketing/advertising related questions. I have no idea how they plan to obtain any useful information from it given it's structure, but I'll happily take a game from them if they're offering!

    • jv on 25/02/2013 - 12:04

      how they plan to obtain any useful information from it given it's structure,

      It's actually an IQ test…

      Do you want the answers?

  • alvian on 25/02/2013 - 12:09

    Centre Com on Facebook: Everything (i.e. Winners) will be announced 7 days after it finishes.

    Survey open until Monday 4 March, so announcement on Monday 11 March perhaps?

    Is this truly from CentreCom? Could just be about anyone masquerading as CentreCom..

    That's way too long a survey to bother doing without knowing if its past 350. I'm assuming by the 920+ clicks that it's already past that.

    do you get a free copy even if you bag their ads and their instore service? I wonder….

    Did these guys ever get out of The Penalty Box for sockpuppeting?

  • theguyrules on 25/02/2013 - 13:08

    Centrecom is dodgy as, from experience.

  • lostn on 25/02/2013 - 13:32

    Most likely, it's a disc in an envelope that came with some graphics card, "not for individual resale". I think I may even have one lying around.

    Ubisoft loves to include free games in graphics cards.

  • MadJD on 25/02/2013 - 13:54

    Thanks for posting this edmobile8! I recieved the survey email and deleted it without thinking. Will be good if they take notice of the survey. ;)

  • billymm on 25/02/2013 - 14:27

    I like freebies & will happily give my opinion but its a PITA to have to check facebook to see prize winners

  • rentony on 25/02/2013 - 14:32

    I don't trust this sort of freebies very much!

    wait and see what will happen.

    • billymm on 25/02/2013 - 14:34

      yeah agree. but they wouldnt go through all of this if they didnt want to change their image for the better would they??

  • Maestrok on 25/02/2013 - 15:25

    They should have a special OZBargain survey…90% of the time I buy from them only when its posted on OzBargain.

  • jayahhdee on 25/02/2013 - 16:26

    Completed, now to see if I get a game.

    • donga100 on 25/02/2013 - 16:39

      Chances of being in the first 350 are probably not good considering 2600 other people (plus those from Facebook and mailing list) had clicked the link before you. :(

  • Maltopia on 25/02/2013 - 16:32

    2604 clicks, not even going to bother trying!

    • rifter on 25/02/2013 - 16:47

      Now you can really tell them what you think of their service.

    • furythree on 25/02/2013 - 22:15

      ozbargain - for when you need a good deal or free webtraffic click tracker

  • ProspectiveDarkness on 25/02/2013 - 16:51

    I know I have a snowflake's chance in hell of winning the free game, but why not. Maybe they'll take a bit of the criticism to heart (looking at you, Bendigo store).

    I noticed this question:

    How Often Do You Shop Online At Centre Com?
    - Once A Week
    - Once A Month
    - Up to 4 Times a Month
    - Never"

    What about if you shop less often than once a month? I think it's kinda silly having both "Once a Week" and "Up to 4 times a month", but no "Once every few months" or "Once a year"

    • giggles on 25/02/2013 - 17:57
      +2

      How often do you Sleep outside CentreCom?
      - Once A Week
      - Once A Month
      - Up to 4 Times a Month
      - Only to see if you employ Chicks yet

      Do you think our ads are contrived rubbish, seeing as we use staff members to pretend to be happy Customers?
      - Yes
      - Yes

      Our specials are often manipulated 'not so specials' or open box returns. Do you still think they are good value?
      - What?
      - I no hablan Inglés

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for the feedback. I've made a few of the fixes to the questionnaire with some of the minor issues that were raised and i want to clear up a few things with everyone,

    1) Yes, it is a full LEGIT copy of Assassins Creed (the original) as a physical disc only.
    2) There are other prizes up for grabs

    We didn't expect such a massive response (thanks partly due to it making it to OzBargain) so we are currently discussing the logistics of doubling the amount of game copies we will give away! (not a promise just yet!)

    Looking over the answers briefly though i can say that it seems a very high number of you are 'Very Satisfied' in general with Centre Com. I can assure you the prizes will be picked at random regardless of how bad you want to slug Centre Com, so please, be honest! We can't fix things we see our customers are happy with!

    • The Quote Train on 25/02/2013 - 21:45
      +4

      I wouldn't be drawing any conclusions from that data.

      I think you're hugely underestimating how unrepresentative those answers are, given how poorly structured it was and how a lot of people would have rushed through it to ensure they were eligible for the prize.

      Where was the question about what I associated with the Centrecom brand? Who do I compare you to? (edit - you have a similar question, but why are you jogging my memory about your competitors by giving me a list of them?) Do you even try and measure your brand equity?

      Spend some money and get some proper market research done.

      • giggles on 25/02/2013 - 22:15
        +2

        Yes, and also a raw question style comparing direct competitors, like…

        Who do you feel offers you the best Customer Service:

        • CentreCom
        • CPL
        • MSY

        Then repeat the question substituting Service with PRICE, RANGE, OVERALL PURCHASING EXPERIENCE.

        I don't think people consider CPL dodgy for example, and in contrast to CentreCon. CPL also have a product range that IMO is almost second to none in their price bracket.

        As far as I know, neither MSY or CPL have been caught out using SockPuppets at forums like this….and that made a huge impact against CC.

          I don't think people consider CPL dodgy for example

          Ummm.. yes they do.

          Just read through some of these threads on WP: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum/?action=threads_search&…

          They are probably the most hated PC retailer in Aust.

          MSY have never been regarded highly either, other than for price. Their service was always awful, though in the last few years it seems to have improved a lot.

        • billymm on 26/02/2013 - 01:47

          cpl are ok as long as you dont need to return/exchange something

          That's a pretty big caveat.

      • Store RepCentrecom @ Centre Com on 26/02/2013 - 10:05

        It's not about drawing big major conclusions from. It's simply enough for us to prioritize the changes we have in the pipeline according to the feedback.

        A lot of those questions you ask we already have the answer to, we're after something different and the survey has what we need.

        • The Quote Train on 26/02/2013 - 13:15
          +1

          "the survey has what we need."

          "It's simply enough for us to prioritize"

          Again, I find that surprising, but whatever. As you were. Hopefully I won something :)
