Can anyone help me, I have reffered a friend on SB and its not showing up yet, does it take a while? they have signed up and started earning points now.
Do I also gain points when they go on and start earning?

Thanks

It takes awhile to show up in your referral list. You don't earn anything for the sign up but every time they win a search you get matching bucks - up to 1000 sb per referral.

Oops, posted on the wrong thread!

What a stressful weekend. 1200miles, 22hrs on the road and hundreds of pounds.

Im, once again, really annoyed at my family. It was my grandads funeral and my Mum needed someone to support her, my sister is sunning herself for 2 weeks in the Carribbean(wasnt pre booked and flew the day AFTER the funeral!), my brother is in Texas so it was left to me to go with Mum. It cost £200 in petrol, £40 for a room and food. My brother was supposed to send flowers via interflora but messed it up and I had to rush out to get some, another £45. I was asked to go by my siblings to support our Mum and represent all 3 of us, something I was happy to do. Im just annoyed that I've ended up paying for everything when my brother is a millionnaire, my sister is pretty rich herself, and im on benefits and the only one with children to support. Im not asking they pay for everything but a little something my way would be nice. Im really worried now as Im supposed to be taking my son to London this weekened for his birthday present and its my daughters birthday in 10 days but Im worried I'll have no money now. I budgeted for it all but had to use it for petrol. Feeling a bit sorry for myself, and my bank balance!

Hope everyone has been well, Im off to catch up on the 10 pages I've missed.

Deary me Mrs, not having much luck lately are you Think can only get be-tter. That's my self cheering up song, hope it worked for you as well. Just as well you can't hear me cos I have a horrid singing voice

I can't believe that your brother and sister have let you pay though, that's what I can't understand. They know you have kiddies and don't have as much income as them. Even if they're planning to give you some money back it should really have occurred to them that you might not have it there to pay out in the first place :mad:

Hugs hun, do you want me to sing again?

big hugs to all who need them. Just a quick update from me £136 from 2nd job.

A whopping great £1.38 profit from Amazon. For selling 3 CDs!! :rotfl:
I knew their fees are high but I'd forgotten just how ridiculous they really are! £1.49 fee for selling a CD for £2 :eek: At least they charge buyers a decent enough postage to cover it and allow a bit of extra profit.

Just seen another Pinecone survey in my inbox so will get that done in a min.

Also just seen the Amazon vouchers redeemed from MySurvey a couple of days ago have arrived in my inbox, and checked OHs emails and 'his' are there too. And, saw another email saying 'Someone has sent you an Amazon Gift Certificate' which I thought for a second was a bit suspicious as it usually says who it's from rather than 'someone' but it looks like a genuine £20 voucher, so I'd imagine it's from McCains as we've been emailing them to chase up the one he deleted by accident before. Also had £16.77 Amazon voucher through from Top CashBack. Obviously only adding the £30 from our MySurveys and £16.77 from TCB as I'd have added the £20 McCains when we first got it, but it's fab to have an extra £66.77 in there now! Saving for a decent Freesat box as we only have terrestrial at the moment which will be gone soon enough with the digital switchover.

I got a £20 amazon voucher too and M*cains are the only one I have pending at that value. I have been waiting for it since 6th Jan.
Better late than never.

Oh nat that is awful of your siblings to take you for granted in such a way ((((big hugs)))

Oooh, just had a phone call from someone to arrange a time for a phone survey as a floow up to a survey I did in the last couple of days (think it was only yesterday actually). Will take an hour apparently, (which is slightly daunting as I'm not sure just how much I can say about healthcare advice when going on holiday) but it pays £35 :j

Must make sure DS goes to bed on time!!

Lol, it's ok - there's OH as well!! I'm hoping baby will be asleep so I can have him on me while I'm on the phone, and he can put the eldest to bed which he usually does anyway. Then he has the perfect excuse to play a bit on the playstation because I won't want anything on the TV so I can have a proper conversation on the phone!
That's the plan anyway, but knowing my luck dinner will be late so DS1 won't be ready for bed yet, and DS2 will be screaming, so OH will be getting tressed out, and the lady doing the survey will wonder what kind of chaos she got when she called my number!! :cool::D
