I have to say that unless there is a dramatic improvement, I feel Pigsback could be more more.

Look at the evidence-
1. All instant points quizzes gone apart from 1
2. Pigsback thread used to be busy but now barely a couple of pages a day
3. Max of 2 clickthroughs a week for old piggies
4. No new sign ups for weeks/months
5. Constant struggle to get points due especially if a large amount.
6. Referrals have fallen through the floor- e.g CD Wow now only 5%. Lots of other sign ups now down to 10/20 piggypoints.
7. A continued promise of a 'new site' which never seems to materialise.

Us old piggies remember it being called free gifts for clicks. As a cash back site, it is pretty poor. I can't think why anyone would use it over Quidco etc.

Someone will probably make the comment that why should they give away things for free, but that was ultimately the business plan they used. I feel it is wrong for them to suddenly turn round and say, well we are actually a cash back site now.

There is no way I will be sticking about for 30 piggypoints a week, and any purchases will be made via Quidco.

I have enjoyed used Pigsback over the past couple of years but I fear that unless there is a dramatic improvement, then it is bye bye from me and from countless others.

Hello, do Quidco offer any rewards at all without purchases - I've just checked their website and can't see anything at a quick glance.

I think I may have joined Pigsback late in the day to really get any benefit out of it. I think once I have reached my 1000 points I'm looking elsewhere too. I'm with Ipoints but I'm having to constantly chase points and they don't answer emails :mad:

thanks

The way I see it is this, it takes me a few minutes on a monday to click through to earn 30 ish points. I don't have to spend anything, of course I weigh up which cashback site is the best for purchases. But, I use pigsback to enter the comps (not won yet either) and gain free points. If it takes me a year to get a free voucher, so be it. It's £10 I've got totally free with little effort.

I did get my fingers burned with party bingo and tesco. I didn't get points due to me, so, I won't use them for cashback but I will carry on using it as a freebie and am thankful for whatever I get as it hasn't cost me a penny.

Well said Toto, i totally agree with you.

I don't understand why some people are getting stressed over pigsback!

The best thing is they pay direct to your bank..

The new rewards on pigsback of wine are a rip off imho.

It is a lot more quiet around here.

Yes, PB has slowed down a bit, but the odd £10 voucher for a couple of minutes per day is worth it in my book.

That's a different quiz. There is a weekly quiz at the top which you've given the correct answer for.

The daily Tetley quiz is lower down the page:

Hi, I agree it is alot quieter around here, its a shame, maybe its a calm before a the storm situation, maybe/hopefully when pigsback are relaunched,(or has it been relaunched already?...) there'll be more offers, who knows, I for one will be sticking with pigsback, they've been good to me, there must be a reason for the cashback problems, Im still waiting for points for refer a friend(x2), Boots and ebay. There's no denying that members perks are few are far between now. xxx

Do you think we should open a quidco thread instead? I didnt know they had clickthroughs either.....goes off to investigate.............xxxx
