I emailed these guys and got one back from someone called Tori saying she couldn't help me!
What did you tell them in the email?

Here is their reply, with my original email at the bottom
Hi Joby,
Tori here from iTunes Support. I understand that you play the game 'Big Business', and despite 'actively participating' have not yet been eligible for the daily prizes because you are not within the top 100 players. You have contacted the apps developers, but they have not been co-operating. I am sorry for this inconvenience, Joby, I know that you would like this taken care of as soon as possible.
I have to apologize though. iTunes cannot comment or provide support for content sold or offered from within apps. In apps and special gifts offered from within apps are completely sold from and managed by the app developers themselves. I am very sorry that they have not been helpful.
I encourage you to use the iTunes Feedback page to submit your comments regarding this app:
Apple - iTunes - Feedback
If you have further questions please do get back to me. I will be able to assist with any issue pertaining to iTunes.
Have a good day, Joby!
Sincerely,
Tori

I have been playing the Big Business game for a few months now. Their support is awful and always takes weeks to reply to complaints. Recently in the game, they offered prizes for anyone 'actively participating' in daily contests. However, prizes are only given outto the top 100 players daily. Despite emailing a query direct to Game Insight, I have had no reply 5 days later. Can you help?
Thank you.... I didn't even think of that.
I have re-emailed with more detail and a screenshot. Lets see what happens this time.

I approve. However, what evidence can you reasonably expect? Should they release someone's transactions records just because we are curious? I assume it might be illegal to do so. Would you be satisfied if they say "yes, we checked our records and they show that she was purchasing credits?"

And here's your egg! Enjoy!

Days to sort it out. It also meant all the work and achievements done in those two days were lost.

I'm sorry everyone is having such a rotten time. Makes me a sad panda. I am looking forward to the end of the Easter event. Hope it'll be awhile before they have something else to chase/do. Want to focus on getting to 7mil coin.
