    John Lewis Gift Card problem - where they didn't include the security codes now seems to be resolved.

    I had raised tickets for the three incorrect vouchers I'd received, eventually I got mail on 22nd Oct to say they were looking into it.

    Not heard anything since and this evening I noticed that the entries in "My Gift Cards" were asking if I wanted the email re-sent. I clicked to do that, went through the process and lo and behold this time the security numbers are on the vouchers :-)

    It would have been helpful for someone at the Help Desk to have updated the ticket to give me an idea of what to do, but hey ho, I got there in the end.

    If anyone else had the problem and hasn't yet been able to get the revised vouchers, try getting the email re-sent.

    Anyone having problems with Gift cards please, My OH is my referral and redeemed two different amazon on different days, he says he never got the email. So I did check in case he deleted it he hasn't. But on his account its showing in my gift cards, so I clicked to resend the gift card email a few days ago but nothing has come through.

    Emailing SB didn't help as they decided to ignore the message and send an automated step by step instruction of how to redeem, I already know how to do that thanks.

    So I decided on my own account to click resend gift card email to see how long it would take, it came through instantly.
    Does anyone know why he's not getting the verification email please, when its showing as in his gift cards?

    Sorry I tried hard to explain myself, am not the best at it. thanks


    Are these the first vouchers he has sent for? Is he getting other mail from SB? My first though would be to check the email address on the account, even one letter wrong will mean it doesn't reach him and typos are so easy to make.

    Is his email something like gmail where its an imap account and mail is accessible from a web interface? Try looking there to see if it actually arrived and perhaps his email client has decided it was junk and ditched it?

    Can't think of anything else, other than if you have access to Facebook to ask in the Swagbucks UK page and /or send a PM to swagbucksuk (who do post there) via that.

    Hope you get it sorted.

    This happened a while ago to me, It just stopped sending me emails to me hotmail account. I just created a new email account and changed it in swagbucks and now it works.

    I've had some problems with Flash on surveys today, only on SB. I've started 3 research now ones with PL and all have stopped working part way through. There have been a lot of others saying I don't have Flash when I do. I think SB must be having an issue because I've checked my settings in Safari.

    I never get any emails on my google account other than gift card verification and cards. My daughter gets something from SB every day on yahoo.

    Not yet but I'm sure the email said they'd be credited but November 22nd! So a while yet :)
  • Thanks for your help, yes these are the first vouchers. He got the email to verify the gift cards, and when emailed SB the automated response came back. His email is correct and it's aol, as is mine and I've never had this problem.
