Mypoints for Priceline!
I was pleased to see this as I was browsing the site the other day. 2 points per $. Not huge, but I use Priceline a lot, so this is a great addition.
Anyone use it yet?

the points take forever to post, but they do post. you're better off with ebay anythingpoints, even after the double miles promo ends.

Mypoints took over 2 months with many emails before I saw a PL point post. I have used the Mypoints shopping portal 3 times, and >never< have the points posted automatically!
I am beginning to feel that their business model is to promise points, not post them, and then assume some people will not pursue the missing points.

MoreRebates.com currently (May 8) offers a 2.5% rebate on successful Priceline bids, at:
http://www.morerebates.com/Priceline.com.html
If you haven't enrolled in MoreRebates yet: Search S.P.A.M. for "morerebates", and there's a long conga line for referrals in a thread entitled "New Rebate Site $12FREE" (there's a $6 sign-up bonus, and another $6 referral bonus for new members). Sorry, but I haven't figured out how to link to other threads in this new format.
Although Ebates.com has offered a 1% or 2% Priceline rebate in the past, it is currently offering nothing. But that could change. Ebates and MoreRebates seem to constantly bounce back and forth in terms of meeting and exceeding each other's rebates.
However, in my experience, MoreRebates is even slower than MyPoints as far as posting. It takes three months to post your rebate, then rebates have to total $25 or more before they send you a check. (Ebates is a little better, with much quicker posting and a check sent every quarter with I think a $5 minimum.)
BOTTOM LINE: I like MyPoints too. But I like cash better.

QuickRewards.net is the fastest with rebates. They offer 1.1% on priceline. I got the credit in 3 days after the order. I cashed out for the $5 amazon gift certificate and got it within a couple of hours. They are very fast in crediting rebates.

I hope that they are legitimate business. But right now, I can't tell if this Shanghai China based business is a scam or just bad service. I wonder if anyone else has received rebate checks from them?

I have to say that although Mypoints takes a while.. it's one of the very few referral sites that actually follows through.. I have given up on FatWallet, Ebates,etc .... all because these sites never seem to work. You click on their links.. complete your purchase.. wait the required 60 days.. and nothing posts. You then have to find your receipt email from way back, send it to their customer service.. hope they respond.. and hopefully not with some lame excuse about how your purchase didn't qualify because it was a full moon and the stars of Mars were crossed just so.
The other sites that work well are the credit card ones.. ie, my Capital One card has cashback referral links for extra $ rewards (using the CapOne card, of course).

They seem to be deadbeats about recording purchases made through these portals. (So they're actually ripping off FatWallet and ebates of their commissions, not just me, the purchaser.) I've given up booking United through any shopping portal as a result. Not worth the followup for a measly dollar or two rebate.
