Amazon Echo Dot Coupon? Did you get one?
Did anyone get an Amazon Echo Dot coupon? My friend told me about it today, but I've had a sonos play 5 since 2012 but I didn't get a coupon. :?

Hi everyone, if you think you're eligible for the Echo Dot promotion it'd be best to give us a call on our sales line. The team can help check your eligibility and see about getting you a code if you are.
The general terms of the promotion are here, if you're looking for them.

Yup, same here. 15 separate Sonos devices but somehow I don't qualify for a discount voucher and it's too late for them to issue me with one. I'm normally a huge advocate for Sonos tech and customer service but this "promotion" really leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

K Dupont check you private messages.
Rang Sonos this morning to be told they are no longer issuing the code. This disappointing as even the sales assistant in the major store wher I bought it thought the offer was valid until 29th. To say I feel misled is an understatement.
Facebook messaged Sonos yesterday - they checked my email and sent me a code. Getting it ordered!
You'd think with Halloween coming up, costumers would be first on the list! 🆒
1) Sonos can't control what the media publishes. It's not their fault that incorrect info was put out there, stating everyone would get the coupon.
2) If you're a loyal Sonos customer, missing out on a $25 coupon, which you in no way earned, shouldn't be a big deal. You're really going to boycott an entire company because you didn't get a free coupon that you weren't even entitled to get?
3) Sonos isn't going to check this thread, see everyone crying, then decide to issue more coupons.
Just to recap: QUIT YOUR CRYING!

Sonos is a scam? What does not being able to get a promo code that wasn't intended to be sent to you (on a non-sonos product) somehow bring the conclusion that Sonos is a scam? Really??
It's an abuse of costumers! But I hear the set designers got their codes just fine. They are a happy bunch.
If you aren't already dug into one assistant brand, figure out what's important to you, in a voice assistant.
If you have an Android phone, are looking for a music player, answers to questions, or a little bit of smart home control(which they're adding more supported devices constantly), the Google Home Mini may be best.
On the other hand, if you do a lot of Amazon ordering, do a lot of smart home control, basic information look up, but sound quality isn't a big deal, try out the Amazon Echo.

I was told, by Sonos, that this promotion was an Amazon promotion in which people who were part of the beta testing for (I believe I remember correctly) Alexa integration with Sonos over the last several months. The Verge wrote their article claiming that "The deal is pretty simple: if you’re a Sonos customer, you should be getting a unique code sometime this week with the discount, which marks down the Echo Dot from the usual $49.99 price tag to $24.99." Of course there is no source in which the link. This is where the confusion came from for me at least.
I was in the beta and did not receive a code. I had 2 Dots in my Amazon/Alexa account until yesterday (sold 1 since I got a One), maybe that's why they didn't send me the code? But then all beta testers should have Echo devices already.
Blame Amazon. It is their promotion, and they set the amount at which they would cease issuing codes.
I emailed sales and was told I was eligible and sent a code. Unfortunately on amazon it said the code was invalid. I then emailed the Sonos sales person who sent me the code and he replied with a new code. Still doesn't work...ughhh! On with Amazon support who have me on hold as they are on hold in the sonos support queue. LOL. Not seeming likely to get the promotion at this point.
Sonos sales got it sorted for me. Ordered my dot $25 off.

Promotion ends midnight Sunday 29th October.
Or Amazon runs out of the allotted number of codes, which apparently happened. Whether they are going to allot more, who knows.

Not true. I got a new code from Sonos yesterday.
Then they obviously decided to allot more, because it was declared done last week. Good for them.

darn it, I never got one of these and now it's over. Bummer. Been a Sonos customer for many years. 😞
Wait for black friday... You're likely to have the same discount on dots..
Amazon just sent an email with a $25 Dot discount code. Good until Nov 20th.
