    Savvy that's brilliant, I cant believe it came so quickly! I have an admission to make, I still haven't rewritten my locked reviews so I can get my £20 voucher! I just cant get the motivation to be bothered!
    Fliparoo- well done on your first review!! You're always welcome on this thread, no matter where you are in the world ;) !! xxx

    Laura I'm not sure, I think that you have to add to it, and then they will check it and then decide wether it is worth being unlocked, but I think they are very picky about unlocking reviews, and I dont know what I can add to my locked ones, i honestly think they are quite good! I've just looked at my reviews, and all the ones I rewrote are still locked, and they really dont deserve to be so I'm abit annoyed with them :( but I also dont want to give up cos then they get away with not paying me my £20!!! xx

    hlcarroll - Thank you :)

    Since joining this forum not too long ago I have become so motivated about how I would like to do things in life, although I waste quite a lot of time by browsing when I should be working :tongue:. I just need to finish uni now (don't finish until 2012) to get on with all the crafting and Money Saving I have planned, but I guess all good things come to those who wait.

    "Once you're sure that all your locked reviews are of the tip-top quality that dooyoo expects, you can contact the dooyooTeam to let us know that you're ready for us to check your reviews. We'll then take a look at them, unlock the acceptable reviews so that they are again visible on the site, and the dooyooMiles associated with these reviews will be added to your account."

    Toonie thanks, that might be why they're still locked lol. Now if I can just get my bum into gear and rewrite the game ones then I might just get my £ 20 lol. Any "kick up the bums" going? lol xxx

    Is there a challenge each month or every few months?

  • go on hlcarroll, think about how many rates you would need and how long that would take compared to you making a few amendments
