Avis de J-FF
Noté 1 sur 5
par J-FF, il y a 3 ansThis extension does NOT effectively or accurately do what it claims -- the exaggerated claim masks what it really is: A universal tracker and data collection app for everything you see and do with Firefox. You have to provide an email address to use it! I ran a test based on a purchase I made the day before: I found a specific SSD drive on Amazon with their best price of $74.50 but then looked around and found it on Ebay for $68.00 and bought it there. So today, after installing this extension, I ran the exact same purchase test on Amazon: After the $74.50 price came up on Amazon the Capital One Shopper did NOT pop up with the price of $68.00 on Ebay (or anywhere else).
The access permissions for this extension enable it to collect your PERSONAL, NON-ANONYMOUS data on absolutely EVERYTHING you do in Firefox in real time from all open tabs and searches. Then, by its own admission, immediately sends this personalized data back to Capital One for their use and storage (and ostensibly so they can find you "like, the absolute bestest price EVER!") Sure the user agrees to this during installation, but how many people realize just how invasive it is and that it really does not do what it claims very well? This extension crosses the line into serious privacy abuse and seems like it may even present a security vulnerability to the Firefox platform.
Do not install it and open the account they require for it to operate "just to give it a try" because the second it becomes active in your Firefox it will immediately grab everything it can find and send it to Capital One with your name and email address on it. And they don't let you change the email address you give them when activating the extension.

- Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 18834691 de Firefox, il y a 3 moisI was delighted to discover I had over $100 in credits I could apply to purchases in addition to the constant cash savings I had saved with the discount coupons at my shopping cart, this is the best thing ever and minimally intrusive as far a I am aware of. I have been very pleased with Cap One SHopping and will continue to use it as I continue to get substantial savings of at least $50 - $150 weekly
- Noté 1 sur 5par 3DVoid, il y a 3 moisIn their Privacy Policy (or TOS idk) they say they can collect a lot of info about you on the websites they have access to which is every single website you go to. they collect "sensitive information" like race, sexual orientation, and more. So I'm just not downloading this because it could be something like honey idk.

- Noté 1 sur 5par carrie640, il y a 4 moisThey give you some stupid upfront reward and then you never ever get another one. The "rewards" are nearly impossible to get as most retailers do not participate. The only thing it MIGHT be good for is to autorun coupon codes when you buy something online...but even that mostly fails. Time to uninstall.
- Noté 1 sur 5par skevil, il y a 4 moisUseless add-on that's only ever installed because of Capital One's bait-and-switch tactic of promising free money. There is no money, uninstall on move on.

- Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 18593563 de Firefox, il y a 5 moisThis is a scam add-on. It forces you to create another account, separate to your existing Capital One account. Further to that, it doesn't work in the browser; it forces you to a separate website; the codes almost never work, and when they do, they are conditional. Best avoided.
- Noté 5 sur 5par crice, il y a 5 moisSometimes it doesn't give the best discounts, but the times it does, it far outdoes all the times it misses them. Easy to use with no upkeep (so far) and it opportunistically helps me at no cost to me at all! I seriously appreciate it being broke as I am right now.
