    Hiya. I've been with valued opinions for 18 months or so and was thinking of redeeming some argos vouchers.

    I have only ever previously redeemed amazon vouchers which arrive electronically pretty much immediately and was wondering if anyone knows if the argos vouchers come in paper form and if so roughly how long they take to arrive?

    Thanks

    Usually about 28 days - mine were the little gift cards made from cardboard with the barcodes and amount printed on!

    Is there someone out there severely editing this thread?
    I only ask because I have been trawling back through the thread to try to find my last post? I posted a week or so ago, and replied to some other posts that have also mysteriously disappeared.
    If I and others are being censored, it would be nice to know why, a simple PM would suffice, if only so I do not repeat the same "offence" again.

    jonty ~ I think MyConsumerRewards are a bit spammy, but they are legit. I don't think it's a good site to join. But someone else may come along whose had a positive experience with them. :)

    I haven't noticed any posts vanishing- I think only the board guides can delete anyones posts, us normal users cannot and its the rule that they will never tell us why if they do this.

    There are however many different threads on individual survey sites so if you can remember which site it was for it may be worth a look?

    And also, if your anything like me, you have several windows open at the same time, it can be easy to post the a message meant for one thread straight onto another thread by accident! Can be a whole load of fun or a bad mess! I learnt my lesson the hard way! It could have been you posted on another thread by accident, you wouldn't be the first and wont be the last! You may though be able to trace your last few posts on your profile page somewhere.

    Please don't take any post deleting personally, if I had done I'd have never lasted more then a month- I had to post this thread three times before I realised I was not able to post links! (Originally I had asked this question and painstakingly provided links to each survey site) the deleting thing is annoying (if it has happened) and it wont be explained to you why as apparently there are too many people having their posts deleted also.

    Thanks purplevamp, I think I'll give them a miss. I've joined a few survey sites that have been really good, but there was just 'something' about this one that got the old antenna twirling. :think:
