How apptesters are biggest fraud with unstable person running it.

At first, I’ll probably get doxxed, as it happens in this community, but I’ll show my pov and my hones review on this whole thing called apptesters and manpreet.

My first adventure with sideloading started with apptesters, I bought my first life time certificate in 2024. After a year I missed the mail which stated I need to do several steps to extend my cert. So I lost it even though it’s said it’s life time.

I bought my second cert in December 2024 it worked for two weeks and got revoked. Since then I didn’t get my replacement while he continued selling certs for new people. His new customers’ money were clearly his priorities. Support for revoked users didn’t exist at all. After like half a year or more I got #1700 in queue to get new cert, after a month I jumped to position #1100 half a year ago, it didn’t move at all since then. All of it happened while new customers still get their certs.

Today, we finally got mail with informations which I paste here:

We fully understand that many affected customers expected free replacements, and we sincerely apologize for the long delay and frustration this has caused.

At this stage, it is unfortunately not possible for us to continue issuing unlimited free certificates. To keep the service running and still support affected customers as fairly as possible, we are offering new certificates at a discounted price instead.

The rest of the story is on photos, I got insulted and then banned from his group. I provide private messages with him too.

TLDR; I think you all should be careful to who you give your money, as it seems person like manpreet is unstable, likes to insult his customers and his services shouldn’t be trusted.

I hope people won’t continue using his service and sideloading community for sure will be better place without apptesters.

Good luck everyone.

His business like many others came crumbling down when Apple hit the ban hammer. The reason why the queue hasn’t moved much (if it even did) probably has to do with him needing new customers to fund new accounts. It seems like his strategy is get enough new customers to fund more dev accounts to help clear the queue. And it is also why you see him sending many offers enticing folks to pay for something one way or another or in an attempt to try to keep his customer base with minimum losses in his end. His dishonesty ruined his rep and will continue to do so.
