    Joined up after reading the thread but all the offers just seem to be spam or scam type sites after my details. And I don't mean just email addresses (I have one set up for stuff like this and comps) but I mean full address and phone number. Which I'm not prepared to give.

    What am I missing?

    Thanks again - I was out last night so not online, but both codes worked for me this morning. I bet there are a lot of folk who have never updated their email preferences.:T

    Asajj - I had that problem a few days ago - just had to reset my PIN - they were very quick to respond.:)

    Rev - I understand about you not wanting to give your details, that is of course up to the individual. I post details on here of offers that have credited for me, usually surveys as they are what I like to do best. I often mention about offers only requiring email submit.:)

    If I see that an offer requires anything other than an e-mail address, I back out of it and leave it. Limits some of my earnings, but I still have other bits that can be done (surveys, phone and tablet apps, and videos are my favourites). Entirely up to you how much or how little you're willing to share. One of the things I did last year (it's expired now, so I need to do it again) is to request a free sim card for my mobile (last one was Orange, due to the fact it was an offer on one of the sites I use). Pop that in just long enough to get the number off it, then put my usual sim card back in. Use the 'new' number if something requires a phone number but no address. It isn't in a phone and doesn't have any credit, so no need to worry about anyone bothering you with spam calls. :)

    Like above, I back up from giving my phone numbers. Most of my InstaGC points come from videos, codes posted here, occasional surveys and offers that don't ask for telephone number.

    It is by no means a fast moving website for me but I will use it every now and then :)

    Thanks to you both. It seems every offer I click on requires a full name and address.


    Also the ones where you're supposed to download and open an app to get points don't work. They just go to a page full of adds.


    Ah well. Was worth a look anyway.
