    I finally got logged in today and found I had about 85,000 pts instead of about £14 in cash which I thought was probably ok as I could order a £15 Amazon voucher which I am quite happy with. Reading everyone elses comments though I realise it could take a while. Ciao took ages to send cash too though.

    Order Love 2 shop vouchers they are the same vouchers that park catalogue christmas scheme give out. They have a long life and can be used in loads of stores, which if you use for normal things you buy in say wilkos, homebase, etc and pocket the money to a savings account, its much better than amazon vouchers which your limited to amazon only items, not the sometimes cheaper marketplace items. You could use the cash saved from using L2S vouchers to get something in Amazon or anywhere.

    Thanks try them next time -never seen that kind before. Kids will be wanting plenty from Amazon for Xmas anyway so will spend the Amazon ones no bother this time.:)

    Think that might have changed as I have ordered Amazon marketplace items with the vouchers before, last time about 6 weeks ago.

    I think its only some marketplace that do because they have order fulfilled by amazon, but not all of them. If it has changed that would be great.

    I asked Amazon and they said some do some don't :D

    I've just ordered something from Amazon marketplace and used vouchers.
  • I am a new user to Toluna and have clocked up my first 82k. I must admit the points for surveys have never taken very long to come through at all. 2 weeks max.
    One question I have go though is about the vouchers. If I send off for £15 of Halfords vouchers how long do you get to spend them? What I mean is if I have a particular purchase in mind am I better off just saving up all the points in my account and getting all the vouchers together?

    I dont think many people get halfords vouchers, I get L2 shop they expire March 2012, I think Amazon have 1 yr life from the code being issued, so would have to ask Amazon what the acutual date is.

    Points also expire after I think 2 yrs from Toluna.

  • Thanks for the response. Is there a problem with Halfords vouchers? I was going to save up for something specific.

    I think its just amazon and Love 2 shop vouchers are more useful to most people.

    Just looked you can use Love 2 shop in halfords anyway so probably another reason why noone ever talks about halford vouchers.

    List of stores you can use L2shop vouchers so maybe can use them on normal things and save the cash, thats what I do.
