    Standard.
    I get 1200 piggypoints and they're out of Boots vouchers again.

    This happened the last time and I had to go for a Paddy Power Bingo voucher!

    Gonne hold out for Boots this time.

    This isn't free. There is a charge and no visible unsubscribe option.

    Havent used pigsback in ages. All my points are gone:(

    Looks like the actual cards/calender are quoted as free, but there's an 'upload charge', and of course shipping costs. Still a lot cheaper than the full price, but certainly a bit deceptive! Ah well, hope the calender turns out nice... :-)

    I signed up for Paddy Power 3000 pts -- They can't find it/
    I signed up for Movie Star -- Free DVD player in 3 mos. Now 5 -- no dvd player
    I buy dozens of books from Amazon -- 1st request in July I send the confirmation emails and they send the points. Same thing happens now for dozens of books they say they need information of amount etc on each order.

    They act like I have all the time in the world to do their job. Grocery coupon points never get rewarded. I've gotten about 10% of points on the ones I've used.Damn I just signed up for their credit card. Do I have to do all their work? Do they make their money off all the unrecorded/unrewarded points?

    Are others having these problems? Who can we file a complaint with?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 904 ✭✭✭PeterDuggan


    Yeah there's been a lot of suspicions about this. When I checked on points I was due a while ago, I discovered many of them were not being paid. It's hard to know if it's deliberate or probably just bad management in pigsback. But here's the solution.......
    1. Every time you earn points (e.g. you buy something from O2, subscribe to an offer, etc etc), immediately send a short email to membersupport@pigsback.com asking them to credit you the points due. Quote your order number if you got one.
    2. Save your email to a special email folder for pigsback.
    3. They'll come back with every excuse under the sun (generally "T&C say you can't get Pigsback points for 8 weeks.") Ignore the excuses.
    4. Then they'll ask you to scan and send them the order form, invoice, delivery docket, etc, etc. Ignore these. You've given them the order number which is all they need to follow it up.
    5. Just keep re-sending them the same polite email every few days until they give you the points.
    Works every time :) and... if every pigsback member did this pigsback would eventually get their act together and pay you the points when you earn them. :)

    Yeah,none of my pigsback.com points have been credited and none of my DAA ones either.
    If I click on an ad for 10 points it is immediate though.

    Pigsback has become a waste of time

    All my DAA points are credited, did about 3 booking online over the last few months and all there.

    I do try to keep an eye on big points offers to make sure they are credited. So far all are there over the last few years only had a couple of issues (that I noticed) with points.

    The problem is that after the points are there the rewards are not that good and the good all have restrctions like 3 vouchers per visit, etc.

    I've been on pigsback about 3 months now and it took me that length to get 2100points, enough for 20euro top up. They sure don't make it easy to get points anyway :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭JP Liz


    no more links to CD WOW or Littlewoods Ireland :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,731 ✭✭✭branners69


    I find the credit card is the best way to get points, just pay all your bills which your credit card. I just got 2600 for last months credit card!

    I just noticed cd wow was gone, wonder if it will be back??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    racecaller.com is a good way to get piggypoints, pick 1 horse a day, you get 10 piggypoints for each winner you pick
    so just pick all the short price ones and get 150-200 points per month
    they even have a list of the 5 most popular, so you can pick one of them rather then scouring racecards, so takes less than a minute a day to do


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,073 ✭✭✭sam34


    they are saying theyre sold out of hughes and hughes vouchers at the moment- hope they bring them back as ive 10000 points and theyre the only thing i want

    And it's getting harder offers seem to be drying up - even the grocery vouchers that had great money off deals up to a few months ago have all but gone - unless you have a dog and eat Ben and Jerrys :)
