Rpoints questions

going2die_rich

Do Rpoints still give you £5 in points for joining as I've just joined and can't see it saying that anywhere.

As if they don't I might as well use Quidco even though I'd have to pay it the first £5 I would still be better off with that, as Rpoints only beat it if I get the £5 joining bonus.

Anyone know? I've looked at Martins guide for cashback sites where I found out about Rpoints but can't find a date on it to see if it's up to date or now.

Thanks in advance for any help provided

UPDATE: Ignore this post, I've found it, for anyone else thats blind like me, I've put the link below.

Hi going2die_rich,

This is taken from RPoints (FAQ section):

'How does the £5 welcome bonus work?'

'When you join Rpoints as a new member, we add a £5 welcome bonus to your account. You should be able to see this on your points statement, and it will have an initial status of "Pending". Once you've earned your first £25 cashback (i.e. you have at least 2500 points with a status of "Awarded"), the status of your welcome bonus will change to "Awarded" and you can redeem those points!

If you redeem awarded points before hitting the 2500 mark, it doesn't affect your entitlement to the welcome bonus'.

As seen from above, you have to wait until you get 2500 points awarded, in order for that welcome bonus to be awarded too. I am a member, and I think this threshold can be reached quite easily.
