    I'm rather pleased to see this discussion! I went on to Pigsback this morning and noticed the drastic change in the points to vouchers exchange rate: I mentioned it to a work colleague and she clearly thought I was making a fuss about nothing. I'm (a bit guiltily) glad to know there's a lot of other unhappy people, too!
    Back after a very long break!

    I had 630 points yesterday, and got 1270 added for the treble adjustment. 630 trebled should be 1890!! So they haven't even trebled the points added properly.

    I just seem to have had double my points added if that makes sense so I had 220 and got 440 added so now have 660 - so looks like you got an extra 10 points out of it

    Ahh right! That makes sense. And I probably did have 635 points yesterday cos I got a click through too, so that tallies up.

    These new changes seem very apt to me. When I first joined they were first rate but now they are third rate. Keeps the 3 thing going I guess.
    I know we wanted more CTs but again not much cop at a third of the value.
    And how long before the points for daily quiz's slide back to 1000 points each.:confused:
    It just looks like a smoke screen for future changes to be slipped through to make it even less of an incentive to stay around.

    and a quick :hello:to the Irish piggies, who have also had their forum stuffed up from what I have read.

    The quiz on the home page says I've already entered and I haven't, I only got 2 CT's so I guess I'm being blacklisted by stealth. Sod you Curly. :p


    One doesn't have to be a mathematician to realise that under the new changes in Pigsback means we are all wasting our time trying for enough points for a voucher ... children should open an account at 16 years of age and maybe then they will have enough points by the time they retire to State Pension.
