    I've read and voted on the ones I can see and posted a couple myself that won't show until tomorrow (and I don't know what user name will appear on them) If we earn points for posting them then I'm happy to be very opinionated and if people want to vote then great but I may not get chance to point the way to them to get extra points.

    Ok, will hare around voting on everyone's ops! I have never written any - can't be bothered - but I suppose if we get a cartel going then it might just be worth typing an opinion!

    Gosh these Quick Votes annoy me. Why can't they just send us a link to a survey with all the new ones once a month?
  • Is there anywhere on the Opinions section to write one on T&V? :)

    That might just get voted on a lot...

    I just wish they'd get on with the new rewards - between the family we've now got 250,000 plus of their points we can't do anything with!

    The HMV vouchers might be more worthwhile if there was some way to combine them with some kind of promo discount code - is this possible?

    I wrote an opinion on 27/09/06 titled "Complain ? , but I'm British" in the "What is it to be British?" section, but it was quickly censored "Commentaire du 29/09/2006".

    Fascists!
    Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.

    I've just noticed that someone on eBay is selling an HMV e-voucher. I hope any potential buyer realises that you have to login to the HMV site with the same email address as the email address the voucher was originally sent to in order to use the voucher!

    I guess a buyer could always create an account using the seller's email address and then change it later, but the problem would be that if they had to verify the email address in any way (i.e. by clicking on a link in an email) they wouldn't have access to the seller's email inbox order to do this. And if the seller already had an account with HMV using that email address then the new buyer would be well and truly scuppered!

    I think it is worth highlighting that these vouchers can't be easily bought and sold like Amazon vouchers and because of the e-wallet system they have to be linked to a specific email address/account. This is worth bearing in mind if you were thinking of exchanging your T&V points for the HMV vouchers and then selling them on!
  • I see ipoints are now listed in the rewards. Rate of exchange seems to be 10,000 T&V points = 30 ipoints with 2 options: 40,000 for 120 ipoints or 50,000 for 150.

    Is this a good deal or not? Doesn't look like it to me, 40,000 points gets you £10 worth of HMV vouchers on T&V, 120 ipoints isn't even enough for a £6 book from Amazon (175 ipoints needed). What a waste of time (or am I missing something?)

    Also, test for pink ipod added. Personally I'm going to boycott the tests while there's no reward for signing up. Pink's not my colour anyway. ;)

    A £30 Amazon voucher needs 615 iPoints, or just over 4 x 50000 (=200000) T&V points.

    200000 T&V points WOULD HAVE exchanged for 5 x £10 Amazon vouchers under the old scheme.

    It gets worse ...
