    Just received an Amazon Voucher for £6.25 from British Rewards. :j
    Now why can't pigsback be nice like that?

    I didn't think there was £6.25 amazon vouchers.

    Can someone else post the crossword answers for the next few nights please. My kids and I have tonsillitus and we are all feeling quite poorly.

    I'll update the first post as normal in the mornings.

    Can't believe how poor pigsback is being with the clickthroughs. I've only had 30 points in the last 2 weeks...I've all but given up on it to be honest...I can save 30p by not buying that bag of crisps etc. the site has esentially becomne a competition page and I haven't won a thing in two years so what's the point???!!! Quidco is much better on it's freebies and at least you get cash direct into the account...

    Hope you get better Jules...you're a star for the work you do here...just wish pigsback were as active as you...recover quickly...

    Am I the only one who's hoping the the moaning minnies who are treating PB like their own personal cashpoint machines, actually do pack up and go?

    Would make the chances of the rest of us, (who do see "bonus" points i.e. the CTs, as just that - bonuses) winning the competitions that much better.

    If you really want to build up your PPs, then do what the site is intended for, and BUY something and EARN cashback, in the form of points.

    Ain't rocket science, is it?

    I'm in an even worse situation. I'm 5pp :eek: away from 1000pp for my first withdraw. Perhaps If i begged? :p :rotfl:

    Hi guys

    I've had 1000 points for two weeks now, only one clickback in two weeks. I have also noticed that the John Lewis vouchers have conveniently run out, and as that is the only one any use to me, I am not sure what I am going to do as my friend has only 60p on her PB and on her account the John Lewis vouchers are available, so they're only available if you don't have enough points? I'm wondering if they've taken them off my PB because that is all I ever exchange my points for? I have no use for costa or whatever else, I use the vouchers to buy food at Waitrose to supplement my grocery budget.

    Not sure what's happening but am losing interest in PB, would take me over a year just to get £5.00 if I'm lucky.

    Thanx

    yes, it looks like its back to business as usual now that Virgin have taken over the Leisure Voucher brand...

    :money: :j :j this may even mean that the vouchers could be useable in many more places including virgin shops in the future. wish i had found out about the voucher "sale" as well would have bought a few at a reduced price .:T :T :money:

    p.s. just sent virgin vouchers an e-m asking about above and will post reply asap.

    reply recieved as follows.....

    Both The Virgin Voucher and Leisure Vouchers are owned by the same company
    Acorne Ltd, the vouchers will be sold the same as they currently are and as
    separate vouchers.

    To have a look what both vouchers offer, take a look on
    https://www.thevirginvoucher.co.uk and https://www.leisurevouchers.co.uk

    ohh well worth hoping that they would extend the use of them to virgin.

    sadly I ordered from boots over 4 weeks ago and havent had my points credited either, looks like Im going to have to chase them up again, Pigsback have been very good to me in the past and Im trying not to get too fed up but I wonder if things will ever pick up again, at 20 points a week its no wonder we're feeling a bit let down. If things had always been this way, it wouldnt seem so bad but to go from 100 or so a week to 20 is harsh. It cant be because there are more members now, or else why would they be offering 500 piggypoints for a referral? Also more members = more people looking at adverts = more revenue for pigsback= less rewards for piggies???? Doesnt really add up.
    This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. (SHAKESPEARE, Hamlet, 1600) :kisses2:

    I only have one thing to say in response to this, this is a money saving site, and why would I want to spend money unecessarily just to get the points? I would buy something if I needed to, but I don't have the money or the need to. I don't own a car, have money to go on holiday or to buy magazines or whatever, so I would rather spend my time on other cashback sites where there is a bigger variety of things to buy and get money back on, and where you get more points.

    IMHO I think that is the point some peeps, and myself are trying to make.

    did anyone notice if you sign up with test and Vote
    you get 30 points ?

    Already with them myself do the sign up for the
    points but dont rely on getting any rewards
    for filling up questionaires there is already
    a long thread running on one of the other
    threads on here.Been with them over a
    year and never seen a single reward
    off them.Just when a lot of us got near
    they raised the amount youi needed to
    qualify

    Even when you get enough points they don't pay up. I ordered an HMV voucher from them. Two months later and still no sign, despite numerous emails.

    Lightspeed are a lot better - made 5 pounds in the first two days I joined, which I turned into an amazon voucher which came the same day
