my account got disabled. i don't know if it was related to this tupperware thing or not, but i'd advise you guys to spend your points quickly. i'm pissed because i had about 5000 points in there before the tupperware offer that i hadn't spent yet.</font>
I've earned the Tupperware thing nine times, plus churned Zappos, Amtrak, and so on, and my account is still open.
It makes me wonder, can they just close accounts with earned points any time they feel like, and not award them? Whatever you might think, just clicking on links to earn all these points for buying tiny gift certificates, is not illegal or against the rules. There is nothing posted about minimum purchase amounts.
But is it ethical for a company to take all your points away, because they feel a few of them you didn't get legitimately? Doing that I think would open them up to lawsuits. Maybe taking away the questionable points while leaving your account open is more proper. But even then, we fullfilled our part by making multiple purchases, even if it's just $1 gift certificates. If they take away the 800 points, they should then give you back the dollar.
