I redeemed some points for £20 paypal, with Lightspeed on 13/9 and haven't received anything yet.
How long does it normally take?

It can take a couple of weeks, too long in my opinion. Also, I wouldnt save it up like you have in case they go bust or whatever. I usually redeem after every 115 points.“A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” - Dave Ramsey0

I'd agree with Tiff, redeem whenever you can, you don't get the money for less points when cashing in for a tenner, so why wait?
I find the cash is in Paypal in less than a week usually, but it can take longer, and sometimes I might order £1 and then a couple of days later another £1 and I get the emails for them both going into Paypal together,so its a bit random how long it takes sometimes. They do pay out a lot quicker than other sites though so I expect you'll see your money in a day or two.
It's only a game

It has taken a couple of weeks for me to get paid so I'd wait at least 2-3 weeks before getting worried.0

I have now withdrawn the £20. As hubby and myself share Ebay/Paypal accounts, I don't want him using it to buy something off Ebay.

Do the rest of you withdraw the money or leave it in? (I suppose it's better now if you want to withdraw the money, didn't there used to be a fee for withdrawing less than £50?)Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £17,496.340
