Kobo Italian email to all and sundry!!
I've gotten Italian language Kobo emails to my Kobo account email addresses ... and never even looked at the Kobo Italy storefront let alone bought from there.

It's one of those Kobo type phenomena ..... you know .... have an account with Kobo, be alert and be surprised!!

Anyway up in the Discounts thread there are reports of this Italian language email being received from people of lots of countries ..... so if you get one of them then just appreciate that you're 'normal' and that this sort of thing is not too unusual for Kobo.

I got this email too. I'm not really surprised, you expect this sort of this with Kobo like 90% off codes and competitions that are charmingly easy to exploit.

I wondered how many others got one, but like corroonb, I wasn't surprised. (Would have been happier for one containing the 90% code though )

Interesting. This is the first time I've heard of any such thing happening...

And I feel left out now.

@initist don't be too concerned about missing out this time, there'll be plenty of other occasions.

I got the Italian email as well. Thought maybe I might have browsed the site in checking a link from here and it picked up my email, but I really don't think so.

The apology from Kobo included a 20% off coupon on the usual "selected" books (i.e. nothing I'm interested in reading).

Regards,
David

Use kobomay21 as the coupon code. The books seem to be located at https://shop.kobo.com/pub/cc?_ri_=X0...sId4xemCG35SO.

Offer valid until June 15th., 2014.

Regards,
David

Here's a copy of some of Kobo's Oops email:

Quote:
Dear Kobo Reader,
You may have noticed that you received an email from Kobo in Italian this week. We know that this is not the regular language that you receive from us in regards to your email communications.
We're sorry - we messed up. We want to apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
Please accept a 20% off coupon on our behalf as a token of appreciation for your understanding.
Use kobomay21 promo code during check out on select eBooks.

Ok. Now I'm offended... Kobo gives 30% coupons away like they're candy, but when they screw up they think they can pacify use with a lousy 20% off?
