    Thanks for starting this thread - I find all the Racecaller stuff gets in the way on the main Pigsback thread

    Definately NO NO NO from me. Racecaller is the only way to get piggypoints at the moment thanks to the tipsters. And also bear in mind you are NOT using your own piggypoints. Can't see what all the fuss is about.

    And, although I hardly ever join in these things I'm sticking my neck out and saying, it's a no from me. It's pretty much the only chuffing way to get piggypoints these days so I'd like to keep the tips in the same thread to increase my, and everyone else's, chances of getting more money!

    Besides the pb racecaller offer finishes at the end of the year.....

    I voted No as its is pigsback related, its a way of bumping up your piggy points. Since they have put up the voucher price again, reduced the amount of click thru's every week and reduced the amount they pay you for them. The shop to earn points are low and don't always track properly, which you have to spend more of your time chasing them only to be told they don't have any record of them!

    Racecaller is related, most months I have between £1.50 - £1.80, thanks to The pearce, Nar and Merlin and anyone else who is kind enough to put a tip. What really bogs the thread down in my opinion is all the moaning about Racecaller, lets face it compared to this time last year pigsback hardly ever put the offers on that used too.

    How are you losing out on piggy points when the tips are still being posted theyre just being posted elsewhere

    But that seems to be the best argument people can come up with against it. Sad really.

    This is a thread for racecaller only, tips for the day for gaining points via favourites bragging etc here, piggy related issues elsewhere.

    This was created to stop arguing on the main pigsback thread
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1034153

    Racecaller is a site where you earn points by picking a horse to win each day. There are a few options as to what to do, some people follow favourites and get the gauranteed points that way (which you can be in betfair league or pigsback league on top of the main league but only one of those)
    A winner gets you 10pigsback points (possibly cash in the betfair league Im not in that so dont quote me)
    Some people choose to make thier own choices and play to get in the top 10 where you also get additional points. Will add pay scale later.

    Also top 10 in main league gains you betfair credit
    finishing top 10 in annual league gains you a large ammount of betfair cash
    getting the most points in any one day gets you paddy power credit, the site states 10 euros but last month everyone got 16 pounds.


    I thought this was being put to the vote? Last time I looked, the "No"s were way ahead, so why this thread?? The vote was a waste of time, was it??
