It looks like it's kind of a raffle.
Not even sure if this legally ok to say "claim offer"

Yes, I got one of the lifetime keys... it was for the first 3,030 to sign up.

Yeah I got a coupon code for the 303 also. Took a long time for the signup page to complete but it finally sent me the email with the code.

I got "Sorry". So frustrated...

ah, now I received the unfortunate email too, to not have been under 3030 first.

But I found myself subscribed to the Roland cloud newsletter, even when I have not given my consent to receive marketing emails. Fortunately I could report this incident as abuse to the email sending service, since I never signed up for this (just wanted to claim "the offer"). Btw European privacy law is very clear about this, that they must state where they use my email for.

I assume these are all gone by now? 15 minutes now and I did not get any email from them.

The Roland gift offer was simply a ploy to market their subscription platform.

[Aloysius]

Not interested in Subs. Even if they are ''free''.

Roland offered me 3 months free Ultimate after missing out on a 303 lifetime key, but failed to provide the voucher code in the email

[sqigls]

what was second prize? 6 months free?

The Roland gift offer was simply a ploy to market their subscription platform.

Plus, their definition of "Lifetime" triggers a circular response that supports only the "Roland Residual Income Scheme" without actually defining anything.
(I owned a broken TB303 unit once and the best thing about it was how it was broken. Sadly it got stolen with a bunch of other things. Sometimes I miss how messed up it was.*)


*I was given one because it got overloaded and the only thing that worked was the start/stop button. And when you started it, it played a music salad of non repeating basslines. And you could not really be sure what key you would start or end up in. It could not be reset or repaired. I finally decided to try and play with it as it decided and it became a wonderful trainer. But completely useless otherwise.

I want in on this Roland lovefest! I have a ticket open with their support since January 14th that apparently no one can be bothered with.

That's what I thought too. I won't bother signing up for the 3 months.
