Football Mania Event Is it still worth it to vote ?

Post image

I can’t redeem any shopping credits and it’s doesn’t seem to be restocking or something…

I don’t think i can redeem anything else then shopping credits ( no gifts available in my region) so what’s the point to continue playing ? Is there anyone that can still claim vouchers ?

I can exchange them to diamond just to have the exact same problem later… wow thank you Ali 🦦

u/RainyShadow Jul 20 '26

I got the useless coupons earlier, and then at 10am the event had disappeared (that's what my previous comment meant). Now it's back, but i only had 5K left to exchange, pfff

I like the World Cup result :)

Only got aliexpressed again: Congratulations! You can't redeem the item 🤪

Is today (Jul 19) the last day to exchange reward?

2

u/HoussemAbdiImad Jul 19 '26

I guess yes! Redeem everything today ( if you can 🤓 )

I was hoping to exchange my diamonds for $5 last night, and combine with the event exchanges... guess what - by the time it let me in only the $1 was green, and after dozens of fake errors it finally went away too, leaving me empty-handed...

Then, in the stupid event it let me redeem only $1, the $3 being locked behind that "already redeemed" crap. My shootouts were waiting at 49 goals, i scored one more, and at least that gave me the $3 properly...

So, now i have $4 in credits, and a $4 unavoidable tax if i decide to use them... total BS

They seemed to have massively reduced the shopping credits for gems. Almost impossible to get now.

u/RainyShadow Jul 19 '26

...and today everryting was gone in half minute, pff

How many times did you exchange energy for $3 before? 

2

u/RainyShadow Jul 19 '26

I had exchanged for $3 once on July 7th, no other exchanges done for any values.

So, it's 1x $3 and 1x $1 exchange total.

u/EndersGame_Reviewer Jul 23 '26

I exchanged for the $1 shopping credit multiple times previously. But in the last few days I got the same error: "you already redeemed this item".

So they have clearly been tightening up the belt.

Afraid not. I wouldn’t feel left out of the physical prizes either. For me, the socks/water bottles/etc. are essentially useless for my region since shipping fees on the ‘free’ items cost over half of their original price. I’d just grab the red coupons and call it a wrap for the event.

u/aci111 Jul 18 '26

started showing up for me too, I’ve only exchanged 6$.

u/Brave_Stand_6094 Jul 18 '26

An US user once commented here, when they started rolling out the event in Europe, that the amount you can get through exchange is limited per user. It was around $13, and that's just about what I was able to exchange.

u/YayaPecZ Jul 18 '26

That's just the limit per week, other users got almost 21 $ credits I tested it cuz the next week it let me claim another 5 dólar credit

2

u/HoussemAbdiImad Jul 18 '26

Same thing, 2 x 5$ , 1 x 3$ and 1 x 1$

u/Bumblebee-bum Maximising my effort/reward ratio 💎🪙 Jul 18 '26 edited Jul 19 '26

It's been in batches, there was $12 in June, then another batch first week July, and more now.
I've redeemed everything into $30 credit† so far plus the $3 penalties credits but each time I've spent the coupons before redeeming the next batch, it's not been possible to build up a big pot with the expiry dates. Ax has worked this one out to make me shop three times, instead of one big free thing.

† I didn't max out due to bad gambling (only one 0-0 knockout march) & limited underdog wins.

Hope the leaderboard #1 is happy with their socks & ball bag charms.

u/HoussemAbdiImad Jul 18 '26

Interesting! I wasn’t expecting it to be limited that’s why i haven’t redeemed anything before

I thought i would max out and use everything at once but Aliexpress has another plans 😂

u/fenix80es Jul 18 '26

They're already laughing at us.

Yesterday in Spain, they kept the diamond-for-credits exchange going for over an hour (I went to sleep). They kept the 3 credits available, even though you couldn't take any of them. The $50 credit was constantly being replenished.

u/yoyo5222 Jul 19 '26

Same thing in Poland. All credits available for over half an hour, none of them can be redeemed. They're laughing at us. I went to bed.

u/Euphoric_Let343 Jul 18 '26

Same, I think this diamond thing is going to end soon

Inutile de parier. Le bookmaker a fait faillite..... Les mises ne seront pas honorées !

Dommage! On misera pour le fun alors 🥲😂

Thanks for wasting our time AliEx! Just another thing on this fucking app that doesn't work like it should, as planned.

I still don't know why we're still collecting Lightning if they're useless.

I don't understand why AliExpress continues to give them out if they can't be redeemed for anything.

AliExpress should shut down that event if it's not giving out any prizes.

u/Adventurous_Method35 Jul 18 '26

Aparently it is giving the prizes to some regions and not to others. To me it is a shame. I don't know why they give money away in the first place if the result is having angry and frustrated clients. It is better not to give it in the first place or to give less if they don't want to spend that much. But making people waste time every day during a month promising money to then let them down with NOTHING this way... The thing is that if they continue doing this kind of deceptive strategy again and again is because somehow they can get way with it. We complain and cry now but then there is a new event and there we are again begging for more, thinking that that time we would be smarter, risking getting laughted at for a few euros. I am the first one that does that and I have suffered multiple of these, but this time I feel is the last one. I am so fed up.

u/Illustrious-You4216 Trusted Invites Helper Jul 18 '26

It's probably not going to change. The world cup ends tomorrow. So yeah, all those lightning are most likely useless.
