    The coupon needs a £59.98 spend - it's a scam as we are fooled into thinking it's a £20 voucher. As for Pipeline, it looks like nothing much is happening on that front :rolleyes:

    Anyway, there are better discounts available for Virgin Wines courtesy of the the MSE Discount Finder :D

    ditto
    As you know, petrol is well over a pound a litre across the country so it is vital that we succeed. To do that, we need more members... 500,000 is a great start – but it’s not enough.

    and i'm sure the number of members must fall every time they send out the spam.

    AND they make 10% commission

    If you have ordered from Virgin wines before the voucher does NOT work! Just another way of getting us to recommend people on a site which as you say doesn't appear to be going anywhere.
  • so don't bother recommending people then...

    I think that Pipelinecard.org is just a big hoax.

    They have made an offer of something that sounds reasonable which no-one can refuse. Now they have a database of over 500,000 people ready for marketing to.

    I have requested multiple times to be removed, but still get their spam.

    Read the following dialog from today.

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Well done, you're a big help to getting everyone cheaper fuel!

    Give yourself a pat on the back... oh and the next time you're unhappy with something in this country, just remember you're part of the problem not the solution!

    Cheers

    Why would you report a website to them?

    Are you completely sane?

  • I have emailed them AGAIN to unsub me from their emails and remove my details. This will be the Fourth time I have asked to be removed. I am sick to death of their spam.

    Asking them to remove your email address?

    All that will do is confirm that your address is active, therefore make then less likely to remove you.

    I have raised my complaint with the Advertising Standards Authority. I wait to hear what happens.
