Cupert on Amazon, "We tried it, but found there were service, set-up, and delivery limitations not in keeping with our company goals and vision."

It works for me and a millions of others.
 
That's unfortunate. It's so easy and convenient ordering from Amazon, especially with prime. Another +1 for Icemax since it's available on Amazon.

Not for the plus version it seems

Cupert simply could not deal with the negative reviews. There are no issue with selling on Amazon, but you need product to sell, and product for replacements.

BTW...No one on Amazon should get a Cinder before I do. My order has been pending since May 9th. Cupert SUCKS.


Very true.

Same size for the 6s+?

It fits, if that's what you mean, but good alignment?....no

I got it for my 6s+ and I can tell you the camera and sensor hole alignments are off-ish and not completely aligned to the center, but it doesnt affect photos.
 
I have to laugh at this shambles of a company. Do they really think anyone is going to believe anything they say. There comment about Amazon was too funny, yeah it wasn't the right place because people are able to give feedback.

Have they said anything about making a protector that fits the 6s properly?
 
I absolutely cancelled my order with Cupert after receiving that message through Amazon.

The fact that a start-up company has the audacity to say an established retail enterprise like Amazon.com isn't equipped to "meet their needs" let me know right away that I had no business giving them my money and waiting around forever for no reason.
 
I actually put the protector on with the phone out of the case and was experiencing the slight issue before I put it in the case (putting it in the case did not make it worse, however). I did spend a good 20-30 minutes giving it the ol' elbow grease before putting it in the case. I can definitely push the lines out, but they come back right away as soon as I move pressure back off those places. Will see how it goes over the next couple days.

Nice product overall, but I have serious doubts that I would buy anything else from this company for how many lies they've told and how unprofessional they have been, particularly towards their backers.

just an update on my cinder, the slight lines along the edges of the screen where it wasn't adhering 2 days ago after application are still there, it's clearly just not sticking there.

Not going to bother reattempting to install or getting rid of it, I'll just have to live with it (install is perfectly aligned).

I have an Air Jacket for my 6s Plus—and I'm seriously considering the Ice Max (which is identical to Cinder). Any final thoughts on whether or not the Air Jacket is too tight? Do you think that's what is causing the lines?

13 Backers so far got their money back.
In total 370 USD. That is what you get if you compare the information on the IGG page.
 
I do not believe it... o_O

...received my Cinder today (Germany)! Indiegogo SUPER EARLY BIRD from May 5, 2015.
The waiting has come to an end :)

no because it was like this before I put the phone in the case, case didn't seem to interfere at all - the protector just doesn't adhere completely on either side despite perfect alignment

Does anybody have an iPhone 6s with a Cinder which fits (no bubbles) and no glare with the front camera?

Did your tracking info show the transit to Germany? Mine is still saying "Beijing airport terminal, left hand navigation"...

The tracking info (17track.net) still shows in transit, the status doesnt chance since 06.10.2015. See Pictures...

It looks like that there are no tracking information after the oversea shipment.
But my cinder still arrived two days ago ;)

Same here. Got the same email and immediately cancelled the order.

There are backers got refund? They still out me on hold. They said they have to finish all the shipment for backers before they refund me . So ridiculous.

I am assuming this, as the amount of backers and the pledged money is less than a few weeks ago on IGG.

Yes, I do.

Received finally last week, I've had plenty of experience in putting on screen protectors of all types, this went on absolutely spot on! Perfect alignment around Home button and top cutouts.

Did have a minor issue with my Ringke Fusion Case where i keep getting a tiny bit of lift, but as soon as I see it, I adjust the case again and all is good.

Not sure if its gorilla glass as I've kept it in a clean pocket, and I have an annoying scratch right in the middle of the screen. But other than that, really pleased with it. Was hoping they would give us backers who fell foul of the f**k up that was delivery an option to buy another at a reduced price......lets see heh?
 
I would rather dog them to death, then ask for a refund. A refund is an easy out for them.
 
Cupert:
...
Dont worry, we will compensate for this embarrassing shipping situation. ...

Well a discount for another screen protector is not a compensation. If you have only one iphone and ordered one Cinder, what are you supposed to do with another Cinder? And this means, you would give even more money to them for not keeping their promises.

Cupert also started deleting comments from the Indiegogo page. If you are logged in and see grey text in the comment section, it means it cannot be seen for non-backers and has been deleted

Ohh it gets better: Cupert is now even deleting UPDATES from IGG. Like this one about Corning: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/where-is-cinder.1895308/page-31#post-22075271
