    I find I points ok,and have a few leisure vouchers as rewards from them.Not had any problem getting the points or rewards.

    i wouldn't go as far as to say "dont use them" as ive had a £50 amazon voucher off them in less than 12 months and a few other bits by using up some points. im up to 650 points again now with quite a few other points due to be added (when/if they actually look into my support tickets

    They used to be excellent, have had hundreds in Amazon vouchers from them, but in the past three months it's all gone downhill - I won't repeat what is in the other thread but plenty of people still having problems.

    I would suggest you avoid them for the time being.

    Yep, defintely going downhill fast. They just bumped up the reward requirements for amazon sky high adding 200+ points to get a award plus removing the daily clicks. They are asking for people to not touch them by doing such things.

    Thanks, I'd missed that - looks like they've upped a lot of their vouchers from £20 to £30 as well :mad:

  • I've been using ipoints for quite a few years now and dont find any problems with them - I only ever convert my points into leisure vouchers which I use to take the kids to Pizza Hut or costa etc - probably mounts to about £100 a year , which is better than a poke in the eye with a blunt stick !

    Just to add, I much prefer mutualpoints as you can gain quite a few points for free and they pay in cash which is a bonus.

    I am a member of ipoints but am still saving for Amazon vouchers as I'm not a fan of the gadgets/other rewards ipoints offer.

    I've heard good things about Quidco but I think there is a (£5?) admin charge to pay annually and that doesn't appeal to me personally. I also think (again, not sure) that the only way to earn through Quidco is to make purchases.
