    i have exactly the same problem and i click on retailers and even leave them up for a few minutes, but only my kelkoo searches ever come through.

    Dont just close the windows down when u have opened them up. I leave them open for ten minutes that way the sites think u r really reading the info and therefore considering a purchase.If u close them down their software will detect it and assume you r using software to browse for u. Theres also 5 points daily for using msn search but this isnt on the free points menu,type msn in the search box and up it pops.

    make sure u click on a direct link,if you dont get a message that u r being redirected then that particular site probably only awards points if u buy

    :j only open retailers that have a logo to click on,i leave mine open but minimised for a good ten minutes,in addition to pricerunner and kelco there is an msn search (5 points) type msn in the search box. I generally get 95% of points awarded the next day. If u close windows too quickly their software will assume that you are using software to browse for u anjd u wont get nothing :j

    What I tend to do with Pricerunner and Kelkoo after I have clicked through to the chosen offer site is actually click on a few other items in the category, for example if I click through to a Bosch washing machine I also click on a few other machines from the same brand and I think this may seem like a more genuine search. I always get points awarded for both.
    Thanks for the tip about MSN search I didn't know it was there.

    I only click on for a few seconds but I always go to two retailers offering the same product and it works for me. So far so good.... ;)

    Good advice but I don't stay on that long, I just choose two retailers for the same product and it works for me. 15 Seconds at the most......

    i generally get all my points awarded the next day. always open site by clicking on a logo and leave the page open for a while ( i minimise it and leave it till i log off) , i found that returning to pricerunner on the free points page and opening a new search from scratch ensures you get the points, also there are 5 points available daily for doing an msn search (type msn into search box). I get double points each day as i registered my live in g`friends email addy (same house address) :beer: :j :beer: :j :T
  • I doubted it would happen, but cashed in 15,000 pts last month, & the cheque duly came.

    The 3rd site I have had stuff from

    ciao - £11 - But you get bombed out of so many surverys 1/2 way through for nothing.

    pigsback - enough free clicks for a free cd-wow voucher every 5-6 weeks

    Mutual pts - took 2 years off & on.

    I used mutualpoints click through to get an Orange contract, and I was supposed to get 1,500 points. Its been almost 2 months since I got the contract. Is there an email address I can contact to chase them up on this?

    Cheers! Only ordered it through them so I could claim my first cheque, cos its seems to take forever to build up points with them!
