CrowdStrike is offering its partners a $10 Uber Eats gift card as an apology for crashing millions of computers around the world due to a defective software update.

“To express our gratitude, your next cup of coffee or late night snack is on us!,” says the email from CrowdStrike's chief business officer Daniel Bernard.

But some found that the gift card didn't work, while others got an error message saying the voucher had been canceled.

Pathetic from CroudStrike. I didn't think they could fuck up their fuck up.

@zackwhittaker @lorenzofb I really thought that was some kind of satire, but I expect too much these days 🤦

"Inconvenience"

Airlines love that word too.

You may have spent 2 days in the airport with *** all to eat or drink, that came out of your expensive holiday, but "inconvenience" is the worst they will admit to.

@zackwhittaker @lorenzofb@infosec.exchange @Viss "Hey, we know we just cost you thousands to millions. Take this expired gift card." must be one of the most tone-deaf reactions by a company I have seen in a while. 🤨
