    word of warning.... anyone who was with pigsback... you have lost your points :(pigsback changed overnight, with no prior warning :mad:

    Can't remember when was the last time I actually log in my 3 accounts with pigback. Never use their link to buy stuff like I do with TCB. I have points there, but they are minimal and I don't use paypal a/c too. Anyway don't know what to do with my points from them.

    What have they changed Aesop? Have they gone into receivership like Rpoints? I think Rpoints resurrected again but I never use them now. I don't even use quidco since they cheated me £110 told them to closed me account & don't wish to deal with them after they took 1.5 years to tell me that they can't get my cashback:mad:.

    Like you said, I too take my money out immediately when it exceeded £10 in my account from TCB. Don't trust cashback website when it comes to me £££ :D nor do I trust paypal. Me always use online banking to claim.;)

    AH, Tell me can you see this sign on your grey toolbar next to "moneysavingexpert.com " link? Now can you see the invisible sign (division) : dash with 2 dots .

    If you click the invisible tab, it will open a new tab for you.
    On the corner of left hand side there is a google logo - Click it.
    Now you should be on Google page.

    The rest I'll pm you. Just need to know whether you can open a new tab before I carry on with my instruction.

    not gone into receivership. they told us a short time ago, something new and exciting was going to happen to pigsback, but thought it was in addition, not instead of.

    they have basically become like groupon/kgbdeals, etc.

    all points you had have been converted into megadeal points and can only be used on pigsback's own megadeals to be redeemed :mad: and the megadeals aren't that great or that local! and to earn more, you have to recruit people!
