500 BAA Worldpoints - Referral

Is there anyone out there interested in joining BBA Worldpoints?
New members usually get 100 points on opening their free account, but if anyone is willing for me to refer them they'll get 500 points instead (I'll also get 500 points too).

For this promotion I need to refer a member before the 31st July 2005 and in order to receive the bonus points they must present their loyalty card for a purchase of at least £1 at any BAA airport in the UK:
Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Southampton, Aberdeen, Glasgow or Edinburgh Airports.

The BAA worldpoints scheme is basicaly a loyalty scheme to encourage shopping at BAA owned airports in the UK:

"BAA WorldPoints will be awarded on the following transactions: one point per £1 spent at Tax and Duty Free outlets, other participating retailers, bars and restaurants, car rental, travel agencies and car parking facilities. Exchange of foreign currencies is at 1 point per £10 spent."
and the points can be redeem for a range items, including or half price travel on Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted Express Trains (500 points ~£7) or for upgrades to first class (100 points), BAA airport shopping vouchers (500 points = £5) or transfer to a few airline frequent flyer schemes.

The scheme doesn't seem to be restricted to just UK residents.

If there is anyone interested in joining and who's going to stop by a BAA airport in the UK anytime before the end of September 2005, please let me know! Thanks.
