What other ways are there of getting cash?mjm3346 said:"Thank you for the heads up. I've been doing the same. It's very disappointing as it's the best value way of redeeming imo"
Apart from paypal if you exchange that way it's actually the most expensive £50 voucher you can get as you are paying the equivalent of over 6700 SB for £50 while all the others are 65000 -

That was just comparing the value of redeeming that way to all the other £50 vouchers apart from paypal but simply spending a Mastercard on bills you would pay anyway would effectively get the full value

I tried quoting the above post but it is so unwieldy that I gave up.

if you know of any other way around this I would be grateful. I am going to try again from a different pc and different IP address as it doesn’t seem to happen to everyone. Fingers crossed!

Sorry, I didn't mention in my reply I cash out at £10. So I'm only using 1300 SB.mjm3346 said:"Thank you for the heads up. I've been doing the same. It's very disappointing as it's the best value way of redeeming imo"

It looks to me like this is the T&Cs for prep@id solutions, I assume there must be some charge to them from P@ypal which might explain why they're no longer allowing it.
It's a pity as it was the easiest way of getting cash for me.

I add each card to my paypal and then send it to my wife who sends it back to me meaning I get the full amount.0 -
As long as you get the full value then Mastercards are the best value of all the £10 cards and at least as good as any of the £50 ones but not if you have to pay fees ( £50 less fees = 48.25 for 6500 SB which works out to a rate of 6735 SB for £50)Ivana_B_Rich said:

I have had this pop up appear since yesterday on Gold surveys page.Looks like a new way to contact support for non paying/unfair disqualifications of surveys. I completed 2 & the others I tried were instant disqualified so not needed to use it yet.
