    I've had my reply.
    I am afraid there is no longer a prize for the crossword. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
    I am a very unhappy bunny. All these years doing it, and never won it. Bah!

    yep, 'fraid so Britbrat, the crossword is caput now too.

    There's nothing about me that anyone would miss, but that's kind of you, Stevey.

    But I'm not going anywhere, except maybe to spend more time on gaining free money elsewhere, especially on the sites that BritBrat mentioned here.

    Last I read it was around 800,000.

    Ouch so even if you said only 1% of that entered all the quizzes each day (thats 8 based on todays)

    Then you have 1/1000 chance a day of winning 2000 piggypoints.....thats just 36.5 % a year
    If they stick to 2 Ct's a week 100 weeks to get 1000 piggy points
    So in 3 years time you should have earned 3500 points at this rate

    Lets just hope they have something big planned to keep everyone on their site.......

    Oh thats sad, we should have kept quite about the Suduco.

    Thanks to all those that posted it over far longer than I have been here.

    Maybe the economic climate is taking it's toll.

    Shopping.com (dealtime.co.uk) is stopping soon, maybe Pigsback is on it's way too.

    At 2 ct's a week it would take me a 100 weeks to get £10 voucher (I think thats right)....

    OMG, think about it, that's nearly two years!!! :eek: Still waiting on my 2 Boots vouchers ordered 13th December and my Thorntons points - it's 6 weeks today since my order. Has anyone else received anything or should I send a chaser?

    Sorry don't know how to do multiple quotes (hoping someone will enlighten me!) but I just remembered seeing somewhere that pps expire within a year:

    Do PiggyPoints expire?
    Yes. PiggyPoints have a lifespan of a year from the day they are earned. You must spend them within a year of earning them or they will expire! The amount of PiggyPoints you have in your account and the number due to expire are listed at the top of your Homepage.

    So it would be impossible to earn enough through CTs alone to get a voucher... You'd get halfway there and then they'd keep being deleted! :eek:
    :D**Thanks to everyone on here for hints, tips and advice!**:D

    Thanks very much to the crossworders - I never won, but appreciated your effort very much, even after the thanks button stopped letting me thank anyone!Maybe it is time for me to back away from PB too. Don't mind so much about the freebies diminishing, but I do worry about the difficulties involved in getting purchases to track.

    PUT TEXT HERE
    <<< remove spaces after "quote"
    And so

    On and so on

    You can even do quotes inside quotes
    PUT TEXT HERE
    And so
    On and so on

    To show "Originally Posted by"
    PUT QUOTE HERE
    << again remove space

    Whoops forgot about that in that case at 2CT's a week they would need to supply us with at least 480 points through sign ups etc

    Piggypoints don't expire any more. They used to but I remember getting an email from Pigsback in July 2007, saying that Piggypoints no longer expired - all you have to do is log in to the Homepage at least once every 6 months. So don't worry - no need to take your mouse elsewhere - just yet!
