    Now the interesting bit ...

    Better return at we promise to:

    blackpool casino £20 for £32.50
    lovefilm 0 for £16
    foxy bingo £10 for £20
    Gala bingo £10 for £20

    go compare and experian better elsewhere. So none of those offfers are worth doing!

    currently worth doing thru ipoints:

    vegas red 26
    chitchat 10
    we luv 10
    bingo cafe 10
    shipleys 10

    cash out of bank 66

    Sendit vouchers
    4.67 £30 send it vouchers with a value of £140 a percentage return of 112.49%

    Amazon Vouchers
    3.59 £30 amazon vouchers with a value of £108 a percentage return of 63.35%

    :beer:


    Actually foxy bingo would be better at ipoints, and pushes you to 5 send.it and 4 amazon £30 vouchers for £76


    im doing this to get computer parts to build my new pc .. i have the case and gfx card so far .. so need a motherboard and huge hardrive .. so lets take a look at an expensive hardrive (so we can use all vouchers in one go for maths sake) on send.it and amazon and dabs (where i usually buy):

    Seagate Barraucda 1 TB
    send.it : £129.89 (1299 ipoints inc p&p).
    Amazon : £116 (inc p&p)
    Dabs.com £99.98 (inc p&p)

    Therefore if i spend £76 pounds on the best ipoints deals then

    hardrive +
    sendit: £20 store credit
    Amazon: £4 store credit
    dabs: £-23.98

    So in actual cash terms i get a 25% saving on a real world item i need through the send.it route and a £20 credit.

    Probably varies with differnet items but the 114% return has reduced to around 30% actual saving i guess if you could find a great deal on amazon fr an item it may still be the better route.

    What good marketing on the ipoints team! From 11 offfers to 6 that were worthwhile. To an actual 30% discount depending upon the item(s) you intend to buy, i'll get started when i get paid on friday though, thx!

    A few more bits for my computer ;-) rather than one massive hardrive, can allways add another one in later

    meh, bingo cafe is better elswhere .. enough of this for today, lol, my head is exploding.
  • As long as you are careful with it and pay it off each month, the ipoints credit card is a great way of topping up your account (in the "credit cards and loans" section of the site). You currently get 2000 points for an accepted application, and then 1 ipoint for every pound spent on it, credited to your account each month. I have had one for ages with no problems and it keeps me in amazon vouchers!

    I have 3300 ipoints and just over 1000 Lightspeed points.

    As you have so many points I would cash them in. I never leave too many points sitting in my account. Both websites have a great range of vouchers to choose.

    Good luck
  • I have 6500 only recently started doing them again , what are the light speed points for?
  • Afternoon folks,

    Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that Ipoints have now dropped their free click points down to 5 points per click.

    I noticed it too maybe it was just one off . http://www.mi-info.eu/ cut theirs by around 50%
  • Why is there people who just can't help complaining about totaly nothing.
    ipoints don't put your arm up your back and force you to join there site or even spend any money.
    Try the many other reward sites and get scammed and then complain.

    erm did I miss something? :confused:
  • Hi I just thought I would add my ipoints experience. I have never had a problem with ipoints. Maybe I am one of the "lucky ones", but everyday I get points awarded and have cashed them for many things such as books from Amazon, Cd's, dvd's from Sendit and items from Prezzybox. The items have always arrived and I have never needed to email them. I personally think Ipoints is a great idea and have referred many friends and family to them whom have never had a problem also. I use a lot of other rewards sites and personally think Ipoints is the best for the points being awarded quickly and being able to get rewards quickly.
    Ipoints- Cashed in for prezzybox and amazon items - 1,983 now. £50 Amazon voucher
    Lightspeed - 220 points
    Bzz campaigns - none yet
