We used to get good stuff from mypoints.com. They must be going under, cause lately, friends and family members have tried to redeem their points and we all had our accounts deleted.
Reminds me of Nitroclicks, UGH.

JayElleKay, you say that you have family members trying to redeem and getting their accounts deleted...are you by any chance sharing the same computer? If so, the site may detect that as cheating. I do not know what their policy for that is.
I just recently, about a month ago I would say it was redeemed my points for a $10 webcertificate. It arrived in my email in 4-5 days. Which is a lot better than Blink.com...I had redeemed there for a webcertificate also and it took them almost 2 months to get that to me.

Tipsy, as with any site, you really shouldn't wait too long. They could close up tomorrow and owe you nothing. Just some hopefully helpful advice.

I got that webcertificate just from clicking the 5 point emails that they send.

hhmmmmm...I've never had a problem with Mypoints. Have you emailed customer service to see what the problem is? I know they do allow more than 1 account per computer, so that shouldn't be a problem.
*********
Can each member of my family have their own MyPoints? account?
Yes. Individuals need to be at least 18 years of age and must have their own email address. Points from separate accounts can't be combined. (Note: Users who share computers must refresh their Log In, otherwise, they could be earning Points for the last MyPoints member that used that computer! )

They locked my account in January. This is after I did some shopping through their site and racked up some points.
It took a while (3 months) to unlock my account. It took another while (another 3-4 months) to get the points since I saved all the purchasers emails which had the referral coupon code.
All is restored, but I lost a few months of earnings potential...
You need to call them as snail mail does not always work. They get the paperwork complaint, but the don't act on it. A few calls were required to straighten all things out.
It was a hairy experience for this cat...

Definetly not a scam. Mypoints has always come through, I have gotten everything I was supposed to. I am now saving up for sony walkman.

This is not just any type of paid for surf thing, this is for real. They have been ranked amongst the best sites, numerous times. You can even buy there
shares (in the stockmarket). Mypoints rules!

THANX for your replies, gang!
Yes, we've shared a PC but each has his/her own e-mail. They don't disqualify "sharing" PCs. They made two of us FAX OUR IDs to them!!!!!!!!
What an intrusion! <_<
I guess they didn't like our pics, because AFTER THAT THEY CANCELLED TWO OF OUR 3 ACCOUNTS!!! :blink:
I JUST WANTED TO WARN YOU, because we 3 had redeemed our points with no problems for over a year.....until now! LIKE MOST OF YOU,We're gong to try to earn and spend points on this last remaining account...if we can... then we're gonna CANCEL THEM!
