They call all the points 'bonuses'.
I get- extra bonus points
- monthly bonus points
- letter bonus points
Those 'Christmas' or New Year' bonuses that have been reported - are they real?
Or are people mis-interpreting the phrase 'extra bonus points' as something new - though they actually get these every month?
Yep, people do seem to be misinterpreting the points this month as a bonus but it's just the normal points.
The end of year bonus did exist though as a separate item - which was specifically mentioned in an email.
I log everything, how many letters per month, how much received, how much claimed per month etc and over last year got £80 to withdraw albeit I take it out each month.
I actually had more letters logged in December but less in November. Some people on this thread seem to get consistently more letters than I do per month judging by how much is claimed to get per month.0 -

For some of us no such email (or, what would have been even better, bonus) was received.0 -
^^ The email was for 'outstanding performance' so I guess there will just be some people that were maybe more accurate/quick than others?0

Exactly the same for me, as I am retired. However, I did go on holiday several times last year, but they were advised well in advance, perhaps this is the reason for not being awarded a bonus:cool:0 -
^^ You could always query it with them and see what they give for their reasons specifically if you think everything was 100%??0

Been going for a year now and am up to £76.00 and i will never need to buy an exercise book again!
My daughter also likes the plain folded card that sometimes come and she uses them to make greeting cards.I can offer no resistance, I can offer no respite
Wake me when conflict is over,
I aim for a peaceful life,
Wake me up when the fury is ended
I like living a peaceful life0 -
I have not received any notebooks for ages, only the card. Shame as I send them out to a girl's school my Club supports in Kenya.0

I've today received a letter with 4 of the ruddy exercise books in it. Is this a record I wonder?! I'm going to have to find a local charity that wants them all.0

Yes, I got that yesterday too! Not had any exercise books for a bit and since it was in a Tesco Bank envelope I was quite confused. Four lovely pristine, very cold, new exercise books to add to the stack of them I have in the corner!0
