    My last received vouchers were from a claim made on the 22nd of May. I've still yet to receive vouchers from my claim on 23rd May.


    Made a couple claims on 23rd may as well, yet to receive them.

    Someone with over 19,000 posts should know that punting for referrals outside the referrers' board is breaking MSE rules.

    A reminder of the address of the page for making a claim:

    (It's been posted here multiple times, but even so it took me ages to find it again just now!)

    It has amazed me that some people with 10000+ posts have been known to reply to such posts with a link to referrals board, correct procedure is to report such posts using report icon/button


    For clarity this is what MSE rules say :

    "Any referrals on any other forum boards will be removed when reported, as will links to the Referrers Board from the main MoneySaving boards."

    I sometimes point people in general terms to the referrer board where it might be helpful to the product they are already asking about (not with any specific link to the thread or a post) but would never directly tell them I have a link, code, etc.

    This seems to work as, to my knowledge, nobody has ever taken a referral from my main forum posts.

    My understanding of that rule is that its primary purpose is to prevent people from posting "see my offer code at <specific post on referral board>" rather than respondents (with no skin in the game) helpfully pointing out that "the referral board is at <top level link>" or even "referrals about this offer are at <referral thread>", but that's just a personal interpretation and perhaps they really do mean a blanket ban....

    Noted.

    I have never once posted any link to my own referral offers - merely to the relevant threads, to save people from having to search for the thread. I rarely ever offer referrals myself, anyway.

    It's ok to link to the referral section , just not specific threads or posts ( which are normally said persons post ) .

    A general "there is a referral section " is fine

    A "head over to the referral section and check out my referral" is not
