Won a Pre-pay Barclaycard

In about September I got an email to say I had won a pre-paid Barclaycard with £90 from Ipsos for completing surveys. I wasn't sure whether it was genuine or not but sent them my address as requested (what is the worst they could do with that?).
After a few months I realised I had heard nothing so I sent them an email to ask where it was. I didn't get a reply to that but about a week later I got the card and with the attached letter it said that I should get an activation number in the post.
This never arrived so I phoned the number on the letter and they activated it straight away for me. :j
Finally I have my £90 and it is a great help with Christmas shopping.
I searched the forums when mine didn't turn up to see if anyone else had had experience of winning them and couldn't find anything so I just wanted to post to reassure anyone else that has won one that if you persevere and chase a bit then they do turn up eventually!
