    I'd like to join in. Does it count if it's an Amazon voucher for example? Or does it have to be 'money' (by which I suppose I mean Paypal straight to bank account/cash).

    Side note - the site has changed and I can't see how to edit my signature. Clearly I am not saving to go to the Tokyo Olympics and in fact, for obvious reasons, never actually got to go! There's no option anywhere I can see in 'my profile' to edit the signature. What am I missing? TIA

    If viewing your profile there should be a blue button near the top:

    Click "Edit Profile". A page should appear. On my laptop at least there is a list on the RHS:

    Click "Signature Settings" and you should be able to edit your signature from there.

    Hi! I'm planning on a monthly update, got my notebook started. To keep my figures straight, do people count cashback when it's payable, or when it's earned but still pending? My Jam doughnut money is easy peasy as it's instant, but TCB not so much! 
    And for SB etc., do you convert points as you earn them for your totals, or only include in the total when you cash out?

    I only count stuff when I cash out otherwise I find it difficult to track what was earned when, whereas it's easy to see the date on statements when it's cashed out.  I've just got £19 on topcashback, but I'll be lucky if it's received this year as it's for airport parking in September and usually takes a long time to feed through even after the holiday is over.

    @Slinky. I used to count as I earned, but as I discovered to my detriment, you don't always get paid in a reasonaly amount of time. Mystery shopping for example, if I go out today, some wouldn't pay me until the end of February for that now! (Not all - some pay within a few days!) I also did some extra work that I didn't get paid for at all, so... I would wait to count it in the bank rather than in the pipeline!  :smile:

    Sorry, its not posting the start of my message! I'm trying to say, I do it the same as Slinky rather than addressing SLinky!!
