    :j So glad they finally gave you what you were entitled to! :j

    I have been soooooooo tempted to break my new year's resolution and complain about PB this week - instead I will ask a question, what size 'bonus' will the random 100 get? If 7 points is a Bonanza, do you think it will be more generous than this month's 18? :rolleyes:

    Morning everyone, just a bit of a rant really!! I spent £330 with eBay before Christmas and Pigsback Customer service are trying to tell me that I only earnt 35 points for the transaction! As I am an eBay seller it is quite easy for me to work out that i should get 396 for the Fees that eBay have earnt x the 35 piggypoints. A certain lady at CS seems to think that 35 points is sufficient and continued to tell me that I must have worked it out on how much I spent? Which in that case would be 11550 points! How are we to know what we are supposed to be earning when CS cant even work it out! I hope that noone has missed out on valuable points due to this? It seems such hard work with PB nowadays, Im still waiting for Birthday points from beginning of December!!

    Hi,

    I have 2 contracts up for renewal next month, and want to renew and get the most back if i can are there any companies other than Carphone Warehouse on pigsback :confused:

    found e2save 3500 points per order, has anyone else used this and got points succesfully

    I've ordered with e2save through greasypalm and I did get the promised money, quite quickly actually but it was about £18 per contract

    Re ebay: I got 35 points for £48 worth of bidding so they are well off the amount you should be getting

    Since 1000 members got 18 points this month, the total number of Google searches must have been 18,000. Assuming the same numbers of searches in January, 18,000 divided
    by 100 members - will give 180 - 10 times what the winners got this month. Less winners, more points. But it does all depend on the amount of Google searches. We could all go mad and do lots ........ or maybe not!!rolleyes.gif

  • "Can I get the ebay points if I sign up with a different address from my Pigsback one?"
    This is a bit of a tricky question. The terms and conditions state the following;
    Terms and Conditions
    -PiggyPoints will only be credited if you start the registration process from this page and you make a bid within 30 days of registration.
    -Your bid must also originate from Pigsback.com.
    -Offer open to Pigsback.com members only.
    No mention of your email address. To be on the safe side I would definately use the same email address as your Pigsback account, but if you have already signed up with a different email address and haven't recieved your points, I would refer Pigsback to the T&C and try and argue your case
    Just to let you know, I purchased something on ebay two weeks ago and had my points credited yesterday - my email address for ebay is NOT the same as my address with Pigsback ;)

    I was in the top 1000 and got a clickthrough.

    Must be my lucky day :)
    Don't worry about it, I didn't get any either and I'm on PB every day as well ;)

    Wonder what active was?

    Oh well not many of us will be getting any more anyway.
  • I thought that the ebay points were 35 points per transaction, it doesn't matter how much you spend, if you spent £330 on one item then I'm pretty sure that you'll still only get 35 points?? From what I can work out? Coz I bought a couple of things from ebay from different sellers so different transactions and got 35 points for each one even though every item I bought was a different price.

    Ignore me, just had a look and it is 35 points per £1 that ebay make in seller fees... Looks like they're messing about!

    Grrr this is what really annoys me about Pigsback they assume that only they know what they are talking about. They really should learn to read their own pages. I would definitely take a screen shot of where its says 35 points per pound so that if you do have problems you have a copy.
