Jadette,

You can get teh 15 OnNow points by clicking the HomePages link on tlakcity. Across the top under the talkcity icon (or an ad) you should see Email, Homepages, Chat, Discussion Boards, etc. click on homepages. When the new window opens, scroll to the very bottom and you will see the link. You can also set up your own homepage on talkcity for 25 points.

The only question I have is how long is this(the points) going to last? This site is to good to be true. I have used some points for the Sprint phone cards(with a daughter away at college, it certainly comes in handy). I agree with Beckles that the vacationmiles award for 27,000 points is certainly one of the most desirous rewards on the MyPoints menu, and if this site stays up and in production, easily obtainable in a short period of time. Any way you look at it, its going to be fun while it lasts!

Yet as beckles has pointed out previously, it depends on where your flying to and the relative cost of the ticket. Especially if as pgupta001 suggests, you may not get the miles for the free airline ticket. You get elite level qualifying credit at Hyatt for free stays plus the $100 Amex counts with/ for stays as "cash" when you pay for another night. At an relatively expensive Hyatt such as a Carribean resort, this is worth quite a bit in addition to qualification credit for Diamond.

Hi all

I just made my regular visits to Mypoints and Talkcity.

My survey visits yesterday to talkcity (14 September) do not seem to have been credited to my mypoints account (they have not been posted). Did other people get credited for their survey visits on this date?

I did the surveys again today and the little blue boxes came up 'Congratulations...'. Hopefully the points are just late.

cheers Peter

My Sept 14 talkcity points have posted.

I've mypoints for Sep 14 missing too. Gotta check the balance again tomorrow to see if they'll post it.

The MyPoints that I've earned have all posted the following day. I have always received my credits.

It must be a time lag due to the fact that I am in Australia.

My Sept 14 points have posted ok now. They seem to be posted about 36 hours later.

cheers Peter

Great stuff TummyG. Unfortunately when I was half way the My Points server had an error or something but no worries, I'll be back!

2 items of good news.

first, the talkcity/mypoints site is back up after the part day problem, and seems to be working much faster now.

Second, I just received an email from Talkcity which included the following about earning mypoints (and mypoitns by talkcity). It seems to be good news, the surveys seem to be with us for awhile, and there may be more ways to earn points in the future.

****Begin email***

Here's how easy it is to earn Points.

Earn Points at Talk City for:
- voting on the community polls (earn Points every day!)
- building a homepage
- visiting OnNow
More Point earning opportunities are coming to Talk City...watch
for them!

Earn Points at MyPoints by Talk City for:
- visiting web sites
- reading targeted email deals

Earn really BIG Points at MyPoints by Talk City for:
- shopping online (like Garden.com and Everything Wireless)
- trying out products and services (like @Backup and Disney Club Blast)

*****END Email****

So keep your eyes out and take a look around everyonce in awhile just in case.

cheers,

TG

We're really going to need a Mypoints forum to distribute news of these future happenings.

cheers Peter
