    Looks like the money goes to your bank account. My bank details were alredy in there as I used to do surveys with them (rubbish payout). Whenever you claim the money in the month you get it about half way through the next month so better to redeem at the end of the month.

    I was thinking that, redeem at the end of the month that is! Thanks for the heads up Wendz.

    Not very focused at work today. What's new? :rolleyes: Looking forward to getting home already, only got about 5 hours sleep last night as I just couldn't nod off. Feeling the Yawn-Factor!
    Hoping I perk up as the day goes on, which is complete wishful thinking I know, but I really want to do this STP challenge this week so I need an hour or so on there tonight. Locked up in my room again!

    In other news, I've been looking around on phone recyling websites and the best I've found for my Blackberry is £17 which is good, or a £20 Debenhams voucher, which I'm tempted to go for as I'll be able to add it to my voucher stash for 2010. Have a little pile of old mobiles (the type you can only get £1-2 for) which I'm going to look up on there later. Quidco are offering £3.70 cash back for using them too.
  • That reminds me I need to look out my old phone for recycling - I may or may not get anything for it as the screen's smashed but it's worth a try eh?

    I have to say nothing any of you say about STP makes me want to try it in the least! Good luck with it tonight!

    Sometimes I wonder why I started using it! But it's basically instant money so I can't complain. Just sometimes the music is so ruddy awful.

    I sent off a phone that didn't even turn on once and only got £1 less than what they quoted me on the site. So you never know!

    Mine had a very cracked case and the screen flickered but I got the full working price, and another one worked but didn;t charge if that makes sense, and got full price for that too.

    I think I'm going to slowly drip my reviews through, like one a day or something? Don't want to shove them all on and then not get any ratings!


    I have been putting two on a day so far, figured no one would rate them if i put them all on in one day, and doing ok so far, should be at the payout soon which will either go straight to credit card or towards some money for christmas.

    OOh, that bodes well then! Did you girls say mark it as not in working order when you sent it off, or just chance your arm by not saying so?

    Mine had a broken button that was missing and still got full price too, definitely worth a go.
