    Went over to redeem as I have 1,400 points and disappointed to see I can't get an Amazon voucher anymore. When did this happen please? :(
    At least they still have Paypal. Maybe they are short of Amazon Gift Cards. I noticed that other survey sites last week were short of AGC's. Try to contact CS, if there is one.

    I am not bothered because I haven't used Amazon for a long time and I have tons of credit.

    I haven't had one for 18 months now funnily enough not since I got rid of the Nilsson toolbar thing which I decided I did not like and cancelled my account on that.

    I did email and they replied there have been no suitable questionnaires, again funny in that they were every 6-8 weeks for 5-6 years before that.
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.

    I didn't know they had paypal actually. I can remember when I used to get luncheon vouchers.

    Has anyone here ever saved up for a large item, such as a camera or something like that?

    Generally best not to let large sums build up on any survey site - if they go under you can lose the lot.

    Nope, as soon as I get the email saying the credit is in my account I cash out for Paypal credit.

    Better paypal credit then gift vouchers for a website I never use

    I had a run of getting one survey a week at the start of this year. That lasted until March and I haven't had a single one since. I definitely wouldn't save up for a large item with Pinecone, as the frequency is so changeable, and I always think money left stored with a survey site is potentially vulnerable - I take the money and run after each survey.
