This should be changed to ‘Jolla ****s people around for sooo long that 80% don’t care anymore’....

I agree with tommo: it's like they don't care anymore as I'm still waiting for the second refund...
I know they're not as rich as Microsoft or whatever other company, but it's not like I'm rich either (I barely make enough to survive!), so after such a long time, it would be nice if they finished the refund.

But hey. We are still 20% left that cares about jolla and the refund. :D

I do still think that some of them wants to do the right thing but are blocked by some manager!

The sad thing is not that all isn’t refunded yet. It’s that they didn’t even continued with atleast a few every month and not communicated anything about this for 9 month. Not even a status message.

I just thought about using some Sony mobile with SFOS and checked since long time my Jolla account.
And guess what?

Nowhere in the account you see any sign of some tablet payment or any open outstanding refunds.
Just nothing.
No possibility to use that lost money for gaining SFOS license(s)!

So :mad: ...

Yes, It’s sad that not everyone can get the money since jolla obviusly have some money to be able refund a few every month.

If jolla dont even give option to use the money to buy stuff it’s even worse since they lose nothing to let a few users buy it for refund money. Might give you an indication that jolla might trying to ignore the backers and supporters.

It could also mean that you have to wait for Beta version to be able to buy it for refund money?

Why are you always claiming "noone"?

I was asked in the first round for the first refund half and again in the second round for the second half. The latter I converted for 2 licences of Sailfish X, of which I use one so far successfully.

I don't usually read Dave's "refund" posts, too tedious. But now that you made me, I'd like to point out in all fairness that "no one" and "not everyone" are not the same thing.

I think I got the first half refund but not the second. But to be honest, it has been so long I can't even remember if I got the first half back!

I do know that I can purchase the license while shopping via VPN (set to Germany for instance) but converting my second refund into licenses was not an option for me in the US.

Me nither. I’m always trying to keep it to a minimum nowdays but it’s good to bring up the subject from time to time. After all. It was jolla who initiated the refund all those years ago and keep the 2nd refund open for everyone during the years to come.

We just have to wait.

I checked my also, it cannot be found directly. However, I tried the URL sent to me via email asking about interest for Sailfish X license instead and there the amounts can still be seen. About refunds in general, IMO they should have already been able to handle them. Waiting for it for years is just ridiculous.

I second that.

I’m sure Jolla don’t read this forum . You should contact them directly, where they won’t give a **** either!

Then why bother contacting them if they won't give a **** there either?

Where is the Jolla blog they said they would keep updated on the tablet refunds? I remember reading it months ago, but I can't find it.

I read Jolla had some profitable months in 2018, https://techcrunch.com/2019/03/09/th...hone-business/

And *I think* refunds would take place if Jolla had profit in a month and interested to read the blog again.

At this point, I'll just give up. We'll never see the remainder of our money again.

mscion 2020-06-29 14:32

Re: Jolla claims Tablet refunds 80% finished
 
It's been so long I forget what happened? Did everyone get a partial refund? I had ordered one and don't remember. Guess I can check old emails. Regardless, anyone know what the current status of Jolla is? Last I heard they were bought up by Russian investors and focusing on the security side of things. Do they actually market a phone anymore?

Nearest you got to a refund was voucher(s) to use against purchase of Sailfish X license(s) No phones marketed in an age but now dependent upon availability of Sony AOSP devices for Sailfish Android App Support.

Did you really expect so?
I gave up years ago and was gladly surprised with the first refund round!
The rest is to be seen as kind of donation or advance payment for SFOS licenses (as aspergerguy said: vouchers for the next years).

EDIT:HaHa. Just kidding. Everybody knows that Dave999 comes from the famous line spoken by the alien in the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still. "Klaatu barada nikto 999 dave" The translation has been debated but it has been suggested that it means give dave his refund or the robot will destroy the earth.

If you want some answer from Jolla you should ask on community meeting

In my first language, "nikto" means "nobody". Make of it what you will.

From the same story . . .

Its latest product is AppSupport for Linux Platforms, bringing Android app support to Linux-based platforms such as automotive infotainment systems and other embedded systems.
Wait, what? How'd I miss that news?

(Oh yeah, my rock I've been hiding under for like, I dunno, 18 months or so.)

Re: Jolla claims Tablet refunds 80% finished
 
Looks like I managed to get the missing dollars from the Jolla tablets funding. So if you are looking for the second refund. Contact Jolla and see if that is possible.
Thanks jolla for settling the score after 27 years of waiting! :)

Who did you ask to? :p

mscion 2021-09-09 17:13

Re: Jolla claims Tablet refunds 80% finished
 
Hi, If you have received a previous partial refund I would reply to that email notification and nicely request the remainder of refund. The advantage of that is that Jolla would likely have all your info readily available. You could also email request to care@jolla.zendesk.com

Hope that helps!

mscion 2021-09-15 06:32

Re: Jolla claims Tablet refunds 80% finished
 
Refund and done! Jolla came through!! The past few years were not an easy period for them. At the time the tablet came out, few companies inspired and gave hope of a Linux based phone and tablet. I'm glad they have finally turned a profit. I wish them success in the future.

Re: Jolla claims Tablet refunds 80% finished
 
Funnily enough, Jolla paid my refund for my tablet as well. Done and done now.

Did you recently request the refund or did it magically appear?
