DO-NOT-USE this free plug in. It costed me 5000+ $. I explain you how.
This is the second year I use this plugin for a charity auction I’m running. Until the payment everything works very well. When it’s time to send the automatic reply Email….
Last year it sent the same email to the winners between 50 and 96 times. I let u figure the chaos, nevermind the credibility we lose due to that.
Now… this year….
People received the same email between 80 and 240 times. Saying that that’s ridicolous is an understatement. If it only would be that…
I have set wire transfer as form of payment. OUT IF ITS OWN WILL the program sent emails to the winners with a self generated PAYPAL link telling them to pay there.
It resulted in my own PAYPAL been frozen, issues with the authorities suddenly have to explain these payments that shouldn’t have been there in first place AND me spending 30+ EXTRA HOURS emailing all these parties involved. Luckily in those moments I didn’t have the programmers at hand..
Now, because of this, donors retired from the auction, costing our Kid’s charity fundraising 5000+ $…..
the answer to that?
“If u get the paid version it wouldn’t have happened.
As I said, thanx God I don’t have the programmers at hand…
