PIGSBACK - solely for questions for Darragh

Kazzea
Posts: 1,982 Forumite
Please use this thread to ask Darragh any questions - and hopefully he will use this thread to answer them.
This (hopefully) will make the other Pigsback thread easier (and shorter) to read through
If you have a questions to ask then please start it with the word "Darragh" - hopefully this will make it easier to use
If you don't think this separate thread is a good idea feel free to tell me
==================================================
I have collated these questions in the hope that it will make it quicker and easier for Darrgh to answer them - rather than reading through the entire thread - it also means people will know if a questions has already been asked
==================================================
Questions So Far (till 19/11/05)
First things first though Darragh - I don't think ANYONE who sent an email with the MSE heading has had a reply yet - and there is nothing wrong with our emails - we get other mail from pigback no probs
Kazzea - why can UK users still access Irish links - admittedly not directly through Pigsback but by links posted by others?
Binxy - Are we going to get our accounts suspended for clicking irish links when we didn't know they were?
Maggogy - will i ever get my 2x 100 points for cdwow purchases? i got a cdwow voucher on 26/09 and never got the 200 points
will my hubby ever get his love2shop voucher he never received? are we ever going to get these rewards please? im more worried about the love2shop voucher....
Dragonfly02 - Im still waiting for lightspeed points from months ago, i've sent many emails to the postmaster@pigsback address, i've included an alternative email account incase there are problems with my spam filters and i have altered my spam filters when using hotmail, and I have had NO reply whatsoever. Please help
===================================== Ok so i got a reply, apparently Rachel replied many times to my emails but i never got 1 despite the fact that I expressly gave an alternative email address. So I have a reply about my lightspeed registration, apparently my registration was not recorded from pigsback so TOUGH!!!!.
I did use the pigsback link, and it seems it's not the first time this is happened, i've read of many instances where people have made large purchases or simply taken up an offer through the pigsback site which was not honoured.
There was another member on this thread with exactly the same problem as me and i'll guarantee they get the same email reply as me
JGjet - 2ND that, been waiting AGES! (see Dragonfly02's question)
Nitewalker - I am still awaiting my 400 points from the Lottery could you please advise when i might get them. Any assistance would be appreciated. Keep up all your good work and effort.
Jmcateer - I am on Irish site. My wife and son joined but are on UK site. As irish site is more relevant can they transfer?
Kazzea - as you know already my family are all pigsback mad (myself, one of my brothers, my parents and my Aunt) We are all members at the same address. This is not a problem (I sorted it all out with Pigsback that having so many people was ok) However my brothers girlfriend moved in with us a few months ago and she wants a Pigsback account of her own - I have discouraged her so far as I don't want my account (or anyone elses in the family) closed because Pigsback think we are "trying it on" My question is would this be ok??
Deeds - I didn't / still haven't received my (boots ) voucher ordered back in JULY!
Comicmankev - Any chance we can swap our redeemed vouchers? I started collecting with my partner and here Dad. Then I decided to get everyone to get Outback vouchers and put them all together towards a meal. She just received her voucher (and we've all redeemed ours but not got them yet).
The bad part is they are just £5 OFF, and not £5 vouchers!!!! Now, this is certainly not a deal. The voucher that is free on your site offering a free starter is worth more than that. Seriously, this is a really bad deal and am not happy with 3 on their way to us which are no use at all!
Bluemango - Have you managed to sort out the link for ASOS as I was told that is was MY ERROR for not getting points for my order, as I had not clicked on the link correctly.
I placed 2 orders with them and recieved NO POINTS for any, no response to emails until I sent it everyday then was told again MY ERROR and nothing you could do (I know many other people have have the same experience with ASOS points).
Also still waiting for my Stress piggies I ordered months and months ago, told in an email it was being looked into, and I am still waiting....
Look forward to a reponse as all emails after I was told I have made an error were never ever responded to. I look forward to your response!
MrMe - I had exactly the same problem, tracking with asos is not working (at least not for everyone although I have never heard of anyone getting points from shopping with them) I have also tried contacting pigsback only to be told it must be my fault. All I can say is don't shop through pigsback with the exception of cdwow. I am owed nearly £20 in points have sent all of my confirmation emails & even asked if it could be something to do with pop up blockers or browser issues but it was me that didn't do it right Oh & still waiting on my lottery points & a Love 2 Shop voucher but for some reason I STILL love pigsback
Could you look into the tracking with asos & give an idea of when I should get my lottery points or even if I will get them? Thanks!
OMG just got my Love 2 Shop voucher today Now just the lottery points & asos to sort!
Soprano - I ordered a cdwow voucher LAST MONDAY and it has not yet arrived. I have sent 4 emails, but not one has been answered. I would rather not use this forum to ask questions, but feel I have no choice.
Do you need my email address? Thanks, Christian
Arkonite_babe - I have just sent the following email to Pigsback:
Quote:
Hi, I redeemed my piggy points for a cd wow voucher on 9.11.05
This still hasn't been credited to my rewards section. Neither have my lottery points from September been credited. The last time I redeemed poiggy points for cd wow it only took two days, can someone please explain what is going on?
I have also emailled yourself as per request in the Pigsback thread. Please can I have some feedback as to what is going on.
Yours frustrated, Piggypoints collector since 2002, a_b
Rchddap1 - any news on the larger value CD-Wow vouchers that you were going to investigate for me?
Kazzea wants to know this too
Mumof3 - I'd forgotten about the stress pigs, yes,where are they?? I ordered them for everyone at work and was going to use them to bulk out stockings. They are still available to 'buy' with piggy points, so you can't have run out of those too!!
Freyaluck - would it be possible to get a link set up to tescos.com I know they have an affiliate program in place, just a thought?
Rchddap1 - One further question...any idea when the 'outdoor category won't select' issue is going to be sorted. I'm still having problems.
Allexie - can you clarify if the Pizza Hut/TGI Friday vouchers can be combined????
Innovate - is there a difference between the Daily Crossword and the Bring on the Day with Nescafe Crossword? i.e. are they two separate things or the same?
Kazzea - where has Avon gone in the Shop and Earn section?? - its no longer on the drop down list
Droopsnout - see post number 43 on this thread
I am not pasting that lot in here as well
