Gave me two options: Tom Jones or Cliff Richard. Answer is Cliff Richard.

Knew it was the wrong answer, looked like they had updated the question, but not the answer

not sure why some people are getting accounts terminated and not others.

I think its when more than one account is being accessed straight after the other, and doing exactly the same things.. eg.. page history thats been visited or comps entered etc.. Also where log in details are very similar.. email add and/or password..

This makes it appear as if one person is running the accounts.. Hard when there's a few of you in the household, but try to leave a length of time before you each log into your accounts..

PB will reinstate genuine accounts for those that contact them.. The individual account holder usually has to get in touch themselves.

Oh heck! Is it only one account allowed per household? I did not see that on the t&c, only stuff about one account per person. I have opened accounts for both me and my OH and we both use the same PC! Any info on this would be appreciated xxx

If you mean that you personally have opened the account for yourself and your other half then i'd just like to let you know that you and your partner MUST do all the offers/clicks etc etc yourselves, otherwise you risk losing your accounts AND the possible risk of advertisers pulling out because the system is being 'abused' which could ruin it for everybody as it could be a very good offer being lost.

The advertisers i believe, are basically paying per each unique view (with the case of clickthroughs) which is why you generally don't get clickthroughs repeated. Once you have had it, then they consider you to have gotten the information they wanted you to have. So if you're clicking for yourself and your partner, the advertiser is not reaching 2 people and paying for 2 unique views, it's paying one person twice which defeats the object of paying for advertising for them.

Also as people have said, try not to do your answers and clickthroughs at the same time as each other as that would also bring attention to the accounts.. not that there is anything against having 2 accounts for 2 people as it's one per person, but you don't want anything to make them think that they're being operated by just you.

Just thought i'd let you know anyway as i wouldn't want you to lose your accounts if it can easily be avoided hun.

Thanks a million Mandi moles. I've just ordered a TV from John Lewis and searched Pigsback thinking I might get points through them, but nothing came up. If I'd known this then I'd have found it. Did get cashback from Quidco but Piggypoints would have been preferable (5 points per £1 at Pigsback or 5% through Quidco).

5 points per £ and 5% are the same though.. just with quidco you get cash, not vouchers!

Woaaah there neddy! Get off your high horse!!! I stated that I had opened accounts for both me and my husband. I did not mention that I was abusing the system and doing anything on his behalf. It is extremely unfair of you to write a post saying that I could lead to the downfall of PB!!!!!!
