    Another £1 final value fee for those on managed payments again this weekend.

    Will the rest of us not get any offers for good?

    There has been various discussions on this and people who still use paypal are still getting this offer I do not think there is any way to ensure you get the offer every time it has been hit and miss for me there was about 6 months were I was not eligable for any.

    Just phoned up and acted a bit dumb asking why I had not had any £1 FVF offers recently.  She told me we aim to give all our sellers one of these promotions per year and I have had one already this year, they can't guarantee another one until next year.  Hmmmm. OK.

    I don't want the offer every fortnight, just one would do me fine so I can get rid of some of my old items.

    RE offer 16-18th April

    Once again, purely to fuel my conspiracy theory (I must get a new tin hat) has anyone NOT on managed payments got this new offer? I like to see, just out of interest, whether there are any discernible patterns in the way these offers are sent out.

    Within our household we have 3 out of 4 accounts with this offer and none on managed payments, it was 2 out of 4 last time.

    That's slightly reassuring as it's not really upto us to sign upto managed payments at our leisure. I used to get at least one of these FVF offers a month and if i was lucky every 2 weeks. I haven't had one since March so it would be lovely to get one soon or this weekend.
    Are those accounts with offer newish or more established? like Soolin i'd love to understand the pattern.

    All accounts over 10 years old, the one that has not had an invite at all for ages is 13 years.

    Checked all my accounts and once again only the one on managed payments has the offer. Maybe they now link multiple accounts for offers even though there are no rules on the amount of accounts you can have.

    Our 4 household accounts are all in different names and have previously had different addresses, only now with 2 adult kids coming back home do they have the the same address.
