    Ah, the moral high ground. We find ourselves nicely rewarded for reacting to ads on PB. And I am grateful for that, but I am not going on a guilt trip!

    AHEM

    Got hubby to sign up but YOU'RE looking for offers?? Interesting!!

    *remembers to check Dormouse's accounts*

    You know I's be tempted to post where to get points but that takes you guys off using the site... so I shan't... I will update you if there is anything I think you're missing out on.

    Here's a question though...

    How many of you have BOUGHT something through Pigsback.com and earned PiggyPoints for it?

    just a thought i am pondering on now, or maybe it should be left unsaid rather (dont go check my piggy account now) lol
    What stops anyone from opening up several piggyback accounts, using different emails? besides the fact that you have to give them your address details? And of course the fact that it'll be too much work logging in and out all the time?

    Then again, what wrong with Dormouse havin an acc for the hubby? unless of course Pigsback states somewhere that there can only be one acc per household? what if i wanna open accounts for say all 7 my children(just an example :o ) and if they are underaged, me as the guardian would have to find them points and clickthroughs???

    P.S I have bought through Pigsback! Not purely to get points, but because I wouldve bought the stuff anyway, regardless of any moneyback site, but if i can get points doing so, y not?

    I spent 40 odd quid on asos a couple of months ago and PB claimed it never went through their site too :confused: I think they have a problem with whatever system they are using.

    The answer i got when i emailed them was i must not have clicked on the right link to get to asos :rolleyes: Stoopid. Im not that thick :D

    I liked the versatility of the L2S vouchers - the highstreet shops appeal as I actually have some near me! (Unlike Pizza Hut, TGI Fridays etc etc)

    Personally I use them at The Body Shop, as I don't like to spend actual money there, I feel disloyal to Lush :o

    But who can resist their Cranberry range :drool:

    Anyway - high street vouchers work best for me.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but there are quite a lot of people here whose partners are signed up to PB. :confused:

    I believe some people had quite a few problems a few months ago when PB realised there were multiple accounts at the same address, which is why Mr Dormouse did not sign up then. Now that things are looking up and PB seem to be much more user-friendly, Mr Dormouse finally decided to join. I cannot see we are doing anything wrong :confused:

    To answer this question a bit more seriously than my first response, it would be folly for anyone to make further purchases from, e.g., ASOS, through PB as it is patently clear that the tracking system is not working.

    People with accounts at RPoints, GreasyPalm, Mutual Points, etc., and who see their points/cashback appearing correctly, are unlikly to swap to PB if the tracking is suspect.

    Then there's Lightspeed, eBay, Lottery, etc., etc.

    I am absolutely sure that when these problems are sorted out (and they are probably teething troubles), people will transfer more of their shopping to the PB portal.
