Consumer Pulse - Survey Cashing Out

Options
So I have been part of the consumer pulse panel for a good few years.  I've been saving my points so I would have enough to buy a laptop with as little cash as possible.  In the past, they used to have Currys PC World vouchers but I have not seen them for a long time.  I've tried getting in touch with Consumer Pulse via email but never get a response.  Has anyone who uses the panel seen them or know if they may return?  There are very limited options at the moment.

I could use my points to get Argos vouchers.  Would I then be able to use these vouchers in an Argos store and get Currys PC World vouchers or is that not possible?  I'm only asking if anyone has any experience of it.  It's probably a no but thought I would ask.

I've just realised I am close to £200 and reading the "survey's article" on the website by Martin,  I am in a bit of a panic in case the panel shuts down!   I've asked family and friends if any of them are going to buy anything from Argos but they've all said no.  

I guess if all else fails, I could just buy a laptop from Argos.

Thanks to anyone who might be able to help.

    Argos only allow 3 e-vouches to be used per order so you would be limited to £150 unless you use them instore where there is no limit.
    ".9.13 Gift Cards or eGift Cards cannot be used for the purchase of other gift cards or vouchers."

    You would have to ask CP if the voucher line up is likely to change maybe one of the phone numbers may be able to help

    Oh thanks for that.
    I've spoken to CP and they have said all available rewards are in the catalogue so no Currys PC World.
    I will just have to pick one and redeem the vouchers, not sure what I will use them for though,

    They now have Just Eat and Uber Eats - could you use them for takeaways?  Or do you know people who would take them off you and give you the cash?

    One of my friends has said they will take the £200 Argos vouchers off me for £150.  I may as well I guess.
    I've just realised I have a fair amount squirrelled away with Pinecone Research too but thankfully they do a bank transfer.
    Thanks both for your help.

    The £150 (3 x £50) is an on-line limit, does not apply in store - before they offered the higher value e-vouchers I spent 30 x £10 in-store - took an age but no problem - last time I spent £400 on-line, just had to make 3 transactions out of it (and pay 3 delivery charges)
  • Does anyone happen to know how I can join consumer pulse please?
