  • Transferring Courses - Is this Possible?

    Hi, given the Premium course special I was wondering if transferring a course between users was possible. The issue at hand is I own Pebble but none of the other Premium courses. If I were to purchase the deal, I am assuming I would then have two licenses for Pebble. Am I able to sell or otherwise transfer my extra license to another user or is it a sunk cost? I sent in an email to tech support but given the Holiday Weekend I am not sure I will get a response before the deal ends on Sunday - anyone have any info?

    I'm fairly certain there's no way to transfer courses since they are tied to your account. You might be able to negotiate with support to get a different course for free though. Sometimes they are willing to work with you on stuff like that and sometimes they aren't.

      Usually there’s one code for each course download activation right? You can download every course if you wanted to, it’s just the code sent that activates it.. It’s been awhile but I can’t remember if that’s how it goes?

        When it comes to the course bundles, there's one code that activates all of them. I don't think there's any way to split it up, even if you only downloaded some of them.

          This is accurate, though I have a separate code for my other Pebble version as I purchased it as a stand alone.

            Has your Pebble code been redeemed? If you haven't redeemed it yet, then you should be able to give it to someone else as far as I know.

              Yes it has - played the course as soon as it was downloaded! Will see what the tech support says - maybe they can swap it out for a few standard courses.

                I asked my rep the last time one of these deals came up and I wanted the other courses and he was able to modify the deal and give me a reduced price for the remaining. (I had Pebble and wanted the other two offered in the deal).

                  From the FSX manual it appears you can load courses onto a different PC by signing in using your Foresight login, so transferring courses to another user should be as easy as getting Foresight to transfer them for you. I have never asked if this is possible (or what the transfer fee is).

                    So was able to reach the rep and they swapped the extra Pebble instance for 3 Standard courses. Most satisfied with the result and the service. Props to the Foresight team for a quick and reasonable response.

                      Did you get an answer from the rep before the sale ended?

                        Sadly not, though in fairness it was well into Friday afternoon of Thanksgiving weekend before I tried. With the sale ending Sunday night I decided to take a bit of a leap of faith. Glad it worked out but I was aware of the risk. In the end Foresight retains a very satisfied customer.

                        I have to say that while there are always things we will want to see improved, I am quite happy with the GC Quad and my FSX experience. I realize this not may reflect everyone's views/experience but these are my two cents. As I said earlier - Props where Props are due!
