E-rewards invtation wait time
Does anyone know how long it generally takes to receive an e-rewards invitation via email? It's been a week and I've heard absolutely nothing.

Don't know if you read the current thread on this board. I think most of us are done with erewards, it just isn't worth the time. A very few got lucky and got enough emails to do okay.
From what I remember it was several weeks after I signed up before I got any email from them.

I had read the other posts, but thought I'd give it a try nonetheless since some people seemed to be getting mid-level $ opportunities and getting Hilton credit was what I was looking for.
Thanks for the information

Not sure if I totally agree with that. It's not like clicking through an e-mail takes too much time, and some people have gotten their accounts well over $100. Heck, even 6 free blockbuster rentals is more than you had before!

You get rewards for three or four mouse clicks. They give you usually a dollar for doing nothing but taking up a minute or two of your time (or $10).

cordelli, you seem to be the only person here who regularly gets a decent number of e-mails. Mine have slowed to one every 3 or 4 weeks. Please share with us your secrets (i.e. profile hints, ho you respond to e-mails, etc.). I myself will be cashing out tomorrow and then pulling the plug on e-rewards.

Cordelli, Glad you have done so well with this. For our 2 accounts there are simply not enough emails or big enough rewards to amount to anything. Like Pete, I am quitting.

I'd share my secret if I knew what it was, the only thing I can think is one of the follow up surveys they do qualified me for more of them (I am seeing more travel and telecom/IT related ones)

Whenever you get an e-reward e-mail, the key is to always say that you are highly interested in whatever is being pushed on you, regardless of what it is.
I just got a $50 e-reward today in my e-mail!!! I had to answer about 20 questions regarding a technical subject I knew nothing about. It was a follow-up from another survey where I told a little white lie and said that I was responsible for purchasing computer equipment for a large corporation.

I already have $20 dollars so far this year. Not a lot, but i do get at between one to four emails every other week. So I figure I should be close to $100 by the end of the year.
