OP Nuke-a Laylee Leader 03/25/2017 (Sat) 02:00:03 Id: 139e1f No. 330391
OP Nuke-a Laylee ITT we discuss the means through which Kickstarter backers of Yooka Laylee can get a refund from Playtonic or Kickstarter. In light of Playtonic's less than stellar way of dealing with any issues that Jon Tron may or may not have raised outside of Playtonic's control, many kickstarter backers have been enquiring how to get their money back. Forums are being shut down and discussion is being quashed due to the consumer/backer backlash and funder's questions have either been ignored or simply ridiculed. This thread will be used a source from which information can be spread to the backers before it is too late. This thread will also be used to plan courses of action for such backers to take.
Leader 03/25/2017 (Sat) 02:12:33 Id: 139e1f No. 330392
Could anons please deposit archives of Playtronic or Yooka Laylee's Community managers' SNAFUs for distribution. The general course of action for backers is as follows 1) Contact Playtonic of a refund.(ensure archive of answer) 2) Contact Kickstarter requesting a refund (ensure archive of answer of refund not supplied) 3)Notify the FTC giving them a copy of refund requests as well as the answers from BOTH the companies. (Ask FTC for advice as for a further course of action?)

>>330399 Thanks. Playtonics response is set in stone. That is step 1 of >>330392 taken care of. I don't do twitter. Could someone start a #nukealaylee to inform backers that they need to contact Kickstarter? Also spread in forums/reddit/etc greater coverage means greater effect.

Do what this weeb faggot does: https://archive.fo/7HfRm Rub Yooka Laylee's own nose in "Johntron is a nazi WTF"-controversy like a puppy that shit on the rug. SJWs will never be happy. An apology or concession to SJWs is seen as a display of weakness and they will shit on anyone who does for all time. Play to that. Anyone happy that our newly Redpilled Johntron has been censored out of this game will never buy the game in the first place, anyway. Doing this is lose-lose for Playtinic, with no good solution (other than just telling SJWs to go fuck themselves), but considering their community-manager is like >>330393 this is another Mighty No9 PR disaster To quote megaphone-chan: "You made your bed now get fucked in it"

It seems that the only way people are able to get refunds is if they request it through their bank. This is not acceptable because Playtonic are shirking their responsibilities concerning their backers. What is the consumer group that britanons can contact so that Playtonic can get fined for their shit behaviour?

>>330423 >It seems that the only way people are able to get refunds is if they request it through their bank. Chargeback. The magic word that keeps popping up seems to be, chargeback. From what I understand if someone does do a chargeback they might get banned from kickstarter. Which imo seems to be a win win situation. :^) CHARGEBACK >>330392 I mentioned the FTC option over at the /v/ thread. I'm still not quite sure if it will help, and I'll be upfront that the only dog I have in this fight is about consumer rights and protection. There is one or two anon that is trying very hard to argue that the FTC option is completely wrong. Which only leads me to believe the FTC option should not be discarded and warrants further inquiry.
Leader 03/29/2017 (Wed) 22:46:49 Id: 139e1f No. 330441
>>330440 I think the FTC option is a grey area, as Playtonic is not an American company. The consumer laws in England, where Playtonic are based, are stricter and therefore need further enquiry.

>>330441 >The consumer laws in England, where Playtonic are based, are stricter and therefore need further enquiry. Then if that avenue holds more potential to be more effective, great. My main interest is seeing those customers who wish to get a refund, get their shekels back.
