Contribution Perks

[AbhishekGupta]

I want to know if free Google drive space is given as a reward for contribution? If yes , then how can I redeem it?

@AbhishekGupta On March 3, we announced both via email in our newsletter and here in Local Guides Connect that as our community of Local Guides continues to grow, we made the decision to end the Drive storage promotion. Local Guides who reached Level 4 by March 17, 2017 at 11pm EST were still able to unlock 100GB of free storage.

Hello, I reached Level 4 prior to March 17th 2017, however did not redeem the perk immediately as I was waiting for my existing drive storage to expire first.  Is there a way I can still redeem the perk now?  I can no longer seem to find the option.

Thanks,

Chris

Pretty sure I was level 5 by then, and I don't seem to have access to additional storage?

Well poo, that's the whole reason I joined the local guides program as a university student 😕 I've got no use really for the music and movie rental perks, but I really need storage space.

@TraciC, Actually your perk system very doubtful because some of them received but some people don't know. Someone says global perk region perk.Sometimes one or two countries getting this. 

My personal views you should equality among the local guide  all.

These days very difficult organisation things. Consider give active local guide level 5&6 $100,

7&8 $200 9&10 $500 gift  voucher yearly. 

So don't want distribution of The shirt. 

I know Google can do this honesty. 

Because every local guide not self sufficient. 

Some need help While helping others. 

Appreciate positive feedback from  Google Management. 

Thanks
