  • Hi Jwil,

    Lots of hugs to you for everything you ar going through at the moment! i really cant get over the ebay buyer, could you report her to ebay/open a case? Dont take it.

    Have you kept all correspondence etc to them? its so frustrating but your right, you wouldnt leave feedback if you hadnt received the item?

    lots of hugs to you. xx

    I've never heard of maximiles, so won't be joining them. I don't think the ones I do use pay particularly well if I really worked it out, but I don't mind doing them as they keep me in amazon purchases and help me get my spending fix.:p (Says her that may have just bought some books with her bingoport voucher).

    I enjoy spending the amazon vouchers I've earned here and there - what bugs me about Maximiles (I think they used to be iPoints) is that you go to the trouble of filling some of it in, and THEN it tells you to b****r off. With Yougov, you are still earning peanuts per hour but it's interesting and I never get rejected once I'm sent a link to a survey. Takes a good 3 years or more to earn the £50 though.

    Well my numpty ebay buyer from the other day who left me neutral because the item was smaller than expected, has today sent me a message asking where the item is, because she hasn't received it yet!! :mad::mad::mad:

    I am so annoyed about this. I replied saying as she left me neutral feedback the other day, I believe she has received it. I'll see how she replies now. She was blocked the other day for being a numpty, it's so frustrating that sellers have no come back for idiot buyers.:(

    Some people should not be let loose on things like ebay as they clearly don't know their a**e from their elbow. How very annoying for you. Does this mean she gave the wrong person feedback for the 'small item' or is she just totally confused I wonder?

    I haven't listed anything on ebay for ages, but that's because I've lots of proper work. Must get back to listing stuff again, could do with earning a few extra quid in February.

    Thanks unsavy, it's so frustrating. I can't do anything about it as I can't prove delivery, so if she starts a case I will lose. It's only £3 so it's not the end of the world, it's just the principle! The ball is back in her court though and I shan't be forthcoming with assistance. Normally I will go out of my way to solve a problem, but not this time.

    Hi DDFW, thanks! I probably won't be around much over the next week, but who knows. Hope all is well with you!

    Yes, YouGov are good like that, you never get screened out. I've averaged about 2 years to get a cheque from them though - I've had 3.

    I did a survey the other day which was over an hour long - that was painful! :rotfl: It was a pretty good reward though if I remember rightly.

    Yes, I'm wondering this too. Whatever happens, I don't want her buying anything from me again!

    I believe it may be free listing again this weekend, woo hoo!

    It definitely is, I've had the email. Doubt I'll get anything listed though, I'm up to my eyeballs in other stuff.

    No, I don't think I will either, but I'll certainly be relisting!

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend. :)
