    Whille my wishlist is beyond ridiculous at this point, 28 e-mails, each with 48 links is a bit silly. A single e-mail summary would be nice.

    They have not stopped....

    Have reported again. Please note this is a hiccup of some kind, not purposely generated spam.

  • Arkham4930Arkham4930 Posts: 36

    Yeah, pretty ridiculous guys. Sort your stuff out.

    Last one received was 40 minutes ago. Is anyone still continuing to receive them?

    I had an hour break from them but just received another one.

    I received one a minute ago, after an hour and half without any email: it's the same email as the other ones (same item), so I suppose it's linked to the same problem.

    Click "NO" to all noticifications should stop them on the alerts and messages page of your account.  Remember to also click "save subscriptions" when done. There was a similar problem a month and half ago,  and I switched off all notifications. A much cleaner and emptier email box is the result. The other option is clear out the wishlist.

    Did that an hour ago and just got another. Guess it'll take some time to fix this glitch since nobody's in the office right now ( 8:09 AM Eastern)

    I just received a single bogus "on sale" email (email came at 7:01am, it is now 7:12am), one of the items is on sale for way more than the email says, and the other isn't on sale at all.

    I must be lucky. I didn't get any but then again I only have 24 items on my wishlist; and none of them are on sale for discounts greater than the usual 30% starting discount.

    I have recieved 43 emails for one item in my wishlist, the last one was about 20 minutes ago, I shouldn't have th change my settings they need to fix the issue with THEIR system! 

    Seriously considering deleting the 16 items in my wishlist because of this. 

  • robertswwwrobertswww Posts: 790

    You have Wishlist Items on sale!

    So far, I have received 30 emails about this, and the last one was at 8:02 am EST. 

    Hopefully, they have ended it, as I have tons of items wishlisted, so this could go on and on.

    I think 1 email to announce Wishlist Items on sale, should suffice... Daz please don't spam us.

  • Richard HaseltineRichard Haseltine Posts: 101,010

    It is possible that the server is throttling the sending of the mails, due to their number, and so you are still getting copies that were actually added to the outbox before the fix was implemented. however, to be on the safe side we have told Daz that people are still getting the emails - this was obviosuly not how the process was meant to work.

    Oh how, oh how, I wish to be,

    Daz just got back to me as I was typing that, they turned the tap off but as I suggested there are probably still some stuck in the queue. They do apologise for the issue.

    I could be wrong, but I'm thinking I might have something in my wishlist that's on sale?....?

    It seems like I should be grateful that I got off quite lightly on this with only 20-ish emails seeing as I have 373 items in the Wishlist and updating my preferences to not get those emails did work for me.

  • FenixPhoenixFenixPhoenix Posts: 3,085

    I got 33 emails yesterday evening, all with the same message (1 item on sale). The last one I got was 2 hours ago. I hope they get the glitch ironed out, as getting alerts when wishlist items are on sale is a good idea.
