    Is it just me or did the Xtravision vouchers go up in points?

    You now need 625 points for one voucher! This is when the actual price has dropped to €4 per night for a new release.

    Good point.

    Anybody have any good tips for gaining points quickly?

    I've signed up to most of the offers and have 750 points. I'm hoping to get another 150 for a restaurant voucher. Any other good offers going? (have done the Carlsberg one)

    Below is the response I received from Pigsback when I questioned the above! I guess the revenue they raise from Advertising doesnt cover all the "surrounding costs". I have €25 worth of vouchers but have nothing to spend them on, but I have a feeling one day soon I will check my account to find the site down and piggy roasting on a spit!
    Thank you for your email.

    The costs in running and operating Pigsback.com for the most part aren't passed onto our members. When applying PiggyPoint prices all the costs surrounding labour, administration, handling etc as well the procurement of the Reward have to be considered, not just postage alone.
    Based on these business costs, we have had to apply an increase on our Reward PiggyPoint cost as well.

    Unfortunately we simply cannot continue to offer the Rewards at their previous PiggyPoint price. The increase is necessary but will help us to continue to provide the offers and Rewards which are on site at the moment.

    I realise that an increase in PiggyPoint costs is never going to be welcomed however our PiggyPoint Rewards are more than fair and generous and in consideration that no cash payment is required, either directly or indirectly to order a Reward and the fact that this required increase is part of the operating cost of the website, our members are still getting a fantastic return from their participation on the website.

    However I have passed your comments on to the team for consideration.

    Apologies for any inconvenience caused, and if you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Kind Regards,

    here's why they aren't giving out as many piggy points, because they're sending their staff to alaska:

    Was that not a competition done by pigsback on their website for members? If that's the case can't believe that emplyees are allowed to participate and WIN.

    TBH the competition "winners" on pigsback are a bit suss, anyone know of anybody who has actually won, I don't and I've been a member for years, as I put it to the CSR a while back when asking about the return of top-ups, their business model is failing.
