GlobalTestMarket MarketPoint Bug Update – November 13th

November 13th, 2008

Members recently observed an increase in the MarketPoint balance, but still had missing points. That was expected because the resolution to our MarketPoint problem required several steps and sequential software releases. We have been working diligently to resolve this issue before the holiday season, and I now have some good news for the membership!

Development just announced there is a software release tonight that will resolve 90% of our current MarketPoint reporting issues. Points that were not reported in your account balance between October 2nd through the 9th, along with a few other reporting errors, should be resolved within the next 24 to 48 hours. We require 24 to 48 hours because it takes time for the program script to update millions of accounts. Chances are by the end of Friday the 14th your MarketPoint balance will finally be accurate.

The remaining MarketPoint issues will be resolved in a few weeks. Please note only a tiny portion of the membership is impacted by the issue that will be resolved in a few weeks.

Will the GlobalTestMarket survey invites accurately report my MarketPoint balance?

Members currently receive two different looking invites. Our older invite should accurately report your MarketPoint balance.

However, our newer survey invites still have some replication issues. To avoid confusion we are removing the MarketPoint balance total until that issue is resolved. We are recording and awarding points from these invites. At the moment we cannot configure the invite itself to display a correct MarketPoint balance total.

When we are provided with more status updates from our Development team we will post a summary here for your review. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. We have also started implementing safeguards from preventing future releases from causing so much inconvenience.
