Don't know whether to cash in my points for cd-wow vouchers or wait till they finally get something worth using - like amazon evouchers - no wait for the post and a wider variety of things to buy. Still waiting on £20 of love2shop vouchers ........ oh well will see what the postie doesn't bring me today0

Presumably, PB have to pay up front for the Love2Shop vouchers, so they may only be able to buy a limited quantity at any one time. The more they are paying us in points for comps, the fewer vouchers they can order. Somehow they have to achieve a balance of incomings and outgoings, like the rest of us. (And I'm still trying ...)
So they must know how many vouchers we are still waiting for (and we're waiting for two L2S vouchers, too, Kazzea), and in order to service those orders, they may be cutting down on what they hand out.Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930 -
Honestly, people on this site demand to get free stuff just by clicking a couple of links.
I have has 3 free CD's from CD-WOW so far, and think that is fantastic, it is certainly the best cash back site I have ever used. YOu even get 100 points when you order your free CD though the site!
So what if they have reduced the points, go somewhere else to click on ads.0 -

Fair enough - you're entitled to your opinion. Just a reminder that Pigsback do actually make money out of having people use their site, they aren't giving away free stuff out of the goodness out of their heart.
Also, in my personal opinion, the customer services offered by Pigsback are pretty poor and they don't seem to be a very professional company to be honest.0 -
I think the disgruntlement(!) is more to do with them not honouring their promises than anything else......♥♥♥ Genius - 1% inspiration and 99% doing what your mother told you. ♥♥♥0

Well, I don't think that we "demand". We have been invited on to the site to click on ads, to do comps, etc., to "earn" points to get freebies. That's great! But I think we have a right to be disappointed if the site becomes less useful, less remunerative and/or less professional.
Other people may disagree with your view that PB is the best cashback site. Potentially, it possibly is, but it's not very exciting to earn 10p per day when we were "earning" 30p, and now, of course, some of the comps seem to be disappearing. if they are going to replaced by new ones, that will be just great!
We are not unreasonable to complain that our emails remain unanswered. We are not being overly selfish to wish that our vouchers would arrive within the timescale that PB themselves set.
I agree that the CD-WOW offer is a good one. It just happens that I don't want to order stuff from that company at the moment, and I'd like the flexibility of Love2Shop vouchers because I (or people I give them to as gifts) can spend them in many high street stores.
I cannot really see how those of us who have had a moan about PB have offended you!
Of course, if you are happy about PB, then you should say so!! But please don't have too big a dig at those who are unhappy.And, of course, be NICE to forum members!

Well Pigsbanks shouldn't be offering points that equate to goods etc if they cant deliver. I have now been disappointed that 3 vouchers and pigsbank stress pigs haven't come in through the post. I have been given various excuses but so far not one thing has arrived. All I expect from Pigsbank is to deliver vouchers and goods if that is what they are offering provided I adhere to there rules etc or stop this altogether.0

I too feel the need to have a little grumble!
Im fairly new to this site as well as Pigsback. Ive just earnt over the amount of points that would have been needed for a love2shop voucher and im annoyed they are not available as well.
I also never got my stress pigs either.
I too now wonder if its worth the clicking away everyday and collecting points seeing as though reports of vouchers arriving doesnt look very promising.
Somehow managed to pick up 70 points today.... (grr cant see what they were all for now)
Click throughs for.....
lightspeed panel 10 points
Daily Diet Tracker 10 points
Iwoot.com 10 points
lottery 10 points
and sorry one just says make savings on your gas electric "U switch" i think 10 points
Toucan Surf/talk 10 points0
