E-Rewards roll over
In exchange completing for a brief survey, my dollars have been extended an additional year.

This was the first time I had to complete a survey in order to get the rollover. They used to rollover accounts for certain people without requiring a survey.

Both my husband & I received the email. First time we've ever received one since they started with the silly expiration rules.
Our date did not change, but the amount expiring on 6/30 is now zero.

Wow, I hope I get one of those roll over surveys. Last year they agreed to roll over my money as a "favor". I don't want to have to try that again. Not sure if they will do it again, either.

I didn't get the survey. Got an email saying use your $ now, or they're gone.. maybe cause of the amount I've earned/have. Currently @ $110.

About 2 weeks ago I qualified for a $30 reward, but it made no sense to take it because I would lose most of it under their ridiculous rules. I emailed them and told them I didn't bother with a survey I qualified for because of their expiry rules. I received an email back that they would reinstate them after they expired.

Letting mine expire. The only thing e-rewards are good for are the miles. I'm sure I can earn enough back in the next 6 months to start cashing them in for miles in the new year.

I also got the "don't forget to use your miles, because they're expiring on July 30" message. FWIW, my balance is right around $100.
Not a big problem for me, though, since I can redeem for AA miles. I prefer Hilton points, but can't redeem Hilton again until August.

I have 2 E-rewards accounts (different addresses) - one has $119 and the other has $21. I received the "extend" survey for one of my accounts - guess which one?
Thus I have to redeem the $21 account for a magazine before they expire next month! And then lose many of the remaining points!
The reason I started the second account is that E-Rewards stopped sending any offers to the 1st address last year! Even now, the large majority of new offers (like 99%) are sent to the new account. (Even then, they don't get through. So I just get the "received offer - $0.05" reward! ) I even got a "courtesy" extension last year of my $18-19. I don't think they will do it again. (At least now they have some magazines at the $10, $15 and $20 levels. They didn't last year.)
