    Have M&S and John Lewis both gone from Pigsback? I can't find either of them on there.

    I emailed Pigsback about John Lewis last week as I couldn't find it either. I had a very helpful reply from Eamon to say that John Lewis are still a Shop & Earn affiliate on Pigsback. You need to type in the item you wish to purchase from John Lewis (e.g. duvet) in the Shop & Earn page and you should see John Lewis in the search results. You get 5 piggypoints per £1.

    To be honest I decided to purchase my item through quidco because you can get up to 9% back.

    From previous discussions I'm pretty sure M&S are no longer available through Pigsback.

    oooo!!! i also just got lots of points! 1500 points for uswitch. only ordered a water saving device and a house water meter. then recieved a letter with a water saving device in it and my confermation of a request to have a meter installed in my house. i rung the freephone number on the letter and told the calls person i had made a mistake on their website, clicked the wrong thing, and only wanted the saving device. this was fine and she cancelled my meter straight away. well worth 1500 points! i was only expecting 500!
    plus 250 for snapfish (i never realised you hade to order the free prints to get your points!)

    Can i just ask how many people HAVEN'T received their pigsback points for their Tesco shopping??

    I have used it every week for 5 weeks now and pigsback are saying they have got no trace of me going through pigsback, even though i did and did all the things to help tracking, i.e clear cookies, turn off pop up blockers etc.
    This is now £30 worth of pigsback points i am owed! I already let go two non paid friend referal points, even though i was with them when they applied and new they clicked on the correct link. 1000 points!!

    I have emailed pigsback and they just said that there is no record of me going through pigsback and cannot validate the points without the confirmation from tesco.

    I really feel like pigback and Tesco are just advertising this just to get extra business and not paying up, saying they have no trace of our custom, but how can we be sure how correct this is? When its such alot of pigsback points at stake, i'm not really sure i want to let this go. :mad: :mad:

    I have had no problem tracking my purchases with any other cashback sites i use, so know its not just my computer as the problem, only problems tracking through pigsback.

    Do you think it would be worthwhile making a complaint to the ASA or somewhere similar?

    Sorry for the rant there.

    there is an awful lot of people not getting points for referals and tesco shopping and not getting any joy from pigsback...

    other option...has anyone tried complaining to tescos about them not validating any of your shopping through pigsback, that way if enough people complain to them they might actually get orr their butts and investigate if there is a problem or validate all of your shopping so you all get the points instead of waiting for pigsback to get off their butts and chase it up...

    as for referals all i can think of is screen shots of every single page in the referal registration process and inundate pigsback, or someone can start a protest page on the pigsback forum and everyone who has refered people and not gotten points can put down how many people they have refered and not received for as well as the people who have been refered can say who refered them etc then maybe if there is enough people in that forum pigsback might do something about their tracking system...

    i think pigsback will only do something if enough people complain and the forum seems a good idea as it will show them exactly how many people tey are swindling out of points...
  • I've tried taking the case of no piggypoints to Tesco directly but am having no luck - they are refusing to look into the problem, this is the second email I had from them;

    Thank you for your email.

    I am sorry I am unable to deal with your enquiry, all enquiries regarding Pigsback would be investigated by https://www.pigsback.com.


    I wrote back telling them that loads of people are extremely dissatisfied with the situation, they probably won't even read it!
