what do you do to earn points yourself0

i love mutualpoints - it is so quick to gain £20 - just use them every time you shop - also, every day do 5 searches in the search box (i just type the same thing and press search but never move to a page and the points get credited) - so - you get 5points for doing nothing really every day.....then do 5x pricerunners a day for 45 points and 1x kelkoo search a day, but, do go to a listing page on these ones......if you do these every day you will soon get the 3000 points for a £20 cheque....
rpoints - you just press recurring and do searches in that section - there are about 8 sections you can search a day for points - i also find this is quite fast and the minimum is only £5 payout....0 -
I also like Mutual points, have had about £45 out of them so far......however, I am struggling with the 5x pricerunners a day for 45 points.......the points just never seem to come through at the moment, Kelkoo is ok, getting my 9 points a day, but Pricerunner - Nothing.....
Does anyon ehave any advice please.....0 -
I have the same problem regarding Pricerunner and Kelkoo. Points seem to have stopped but with no notification. Can anyone advise/help?To Dare is To Do:beer:0

Of all the cashback sites, I would only touch TopCashBack , Quidco and Rpoints (in that order, but probably use all three together, so to have the widest possible spread of merchants). Reason for my recommendation is that these guys pay more (sometimes vastly more) / have better conditions than Mutualpoints, ipoints etc. - and their service is no worse, sometimes even better, than that of the sites which keep a lot of what can, and should, be your money.
Apart from using the sites to do shopping and daily clicks, I would look at the high earning opportunities and make every effort to exploit them. If you do that, you'll soon see the need for 'daily clicks' disappear!
Many of the high earners are gambling sites - something that instantly puts off many people, for very understandable reasons. However, if you head over to the gambling loopholes board and familiarise yourself with Matched Betting , you can cash in on several 'big earners' (£10 - £50) in absolutely no time. Plus you can pocket some extra money from bets if you are lucky. Matched Betting initially sounds harrowing to most (it certainly did to me) but it's actually dead simple, and totally low-risk - you just have to follow the advice given precisely.
Other high earners on the three sites I mention are insurances and bank accounts - there are some absolutely amazing cashbacks to get for insurances (e.g. £90 for Zurich) that most of us will just need to have (home / contents / car). Also, quite a lot of money can be made for opening bank accounts.
Hope my post will help many of you to see cashback sites in a very different light.0 -
Personally I use I-points. See https://www.Ipoints.co.uk
Last year through clicking on adverts and routing some of my online shopping through their referral system (shopping that I would have done anyway) I got enough points to get £75 of High street vouchers.0 -
ejones999, without knowing details of your transactions, I would hazard a bet that you would have made £150+ for the same activities via TCB/Quidco/Rpoints.
Admittedly, TCB and Quidco with their revolutionary business models only came on recently, but they are here now, and they pay out, so I would recommend people assess their alternatives.0 -
I have been using Ipoints and Mutual Points. Can get 5 points daily with Ipoints and around 9 with Kelkoo at Mutual Points. Haven't been receiving points from MP's Pricerunner link recently.
Also use RPoints but generally only get rewarded with Kelkoo, Pricerunner and Lycos searches.0 -
