I've just received the mobileme e-mail about extending my account by 60 days so I try to log in to my account and I'm told I have an invalid user id.

<sarcasm>Marvellous Scenes......NOT</sarcasm> :mad:

Edit: Just ignore the second part of this post. I was using the wrong user id. :eek:
 
What is the original free trial period? 60 days?

so if I signup tonight, am I going to get 120 days?
 
So is the service really MobileMe?

I suggest a name change...

MobileFree

Given that seems to be more appropriate.
 
Even though we are all having issues and MobileMe is clearly not a great service/product, I still commend Apple for handling this issue so well. I appreciate that they have given these extensions and have apologized for this inconvenience.
 
so I just signed up tonight (15min ago) it said 60 days. Stupid question how many days free is that? Just 60?

EDIT: The stupid thing erased my calendar!!! :(
 
Zero issues with MM

I did not have any issues with MM. My domain hosting still works fine.
I did not receive a first memo about 30-days extension though.
Push is working fine.
I think Apple got a pretty big wave of the new subscribers. Thanks to the FW v.2.X.
My renewal date just keeps sliding forward.
MobileMe is here to stay for a long time...
Thanks!
 
Thats nice, but make us all happy and bring back "iCards"!!!!

Yes! I am so lost without iCards. All of the other online cards services suck and eat up so much of my valuable time. Right now I am using the stationary in mail but that is very limited and doesn't do me good when I am on the road.

answered my own question (via apple)

Am I eligible for the 60-day extension?
You are eligible if you are a MobileMe member whose account was active as of August 19, 2008 at 0:00 Pacific Daylight Time.

What if I am currently in a free trial period?
If you were in your free trial period on August 19 at 0:00 Pacific Daylight Time, your free trial will be extended an additional 60 days.
 
So Apple decided to delay my moving of all primary email traffic to G-Mail by 60 days? Whatever.

Still not gonna pay for the same service that deleted all my files and email. I'll take the free extension and still move on.
 
ok I signed up....
synced everything, fairly easy setup.
Mac pro, macbook and iphone...all good to go.......NOT! :mad:

I made a new cal entry on my Iphone, entry showed up at me.com
but not in ICAL...WTF?!

Where is the push? I need to manually sync... NOT GOOD!
Iphone and me.com sync instantly but not with computers....
What the hell....
 
Oh comeon! Make the service free already.... like google... yahoo and so on!
 
I got the email about the 60 day extension, but only when I logged into me.com. The email was not pushed to my iPhone. Howzat for irony?
 
Another 60 days... At this rate I'll never actually get round to paying for a subscription.

Signed up when it was first available: 60 days free
Billing problems: 30 days free
Previous extension: 30 days free
New extension: 60 days.

180 days free, think that extends it into sometime next year! :D
 
this was a pleasant surprise in my inbox this morning.. :)

my original 30 day extension was only applied last week, and now another 60 days... brilliant...
 
While I will accept the additional free time, I feel rather guilty about it. I am another one that has worked correctly since about day #2.

Are the problems experienced by others both on OS X and Windows?
