I got 750 points, trying free Entertainment discount book offer for 3 free internet coupons, no credit card info, just needed email

what coupons? is there a special link or place on mypoints for this?>

do tell more please.

advice: when doing an offer, do save printouts so you have proof of offer in case the conditions change or you need to go back and show something to get your points.

thanks.

The Entertainment book is no longer available on mypoints. Checked the alpha merchant listing, and it has disappeared.

Interesting... I ordered it about 3 weeks ago and my 750 points posted on 12/22. I guess I got in just in time.

3 weeks ago huh?Welll thanks for the "Hot Tip"
BTW did you hear that Truman won the election?

It's still there....under EARN POINTS ---> TRAVEL/VACATIONS

Yes it is still there. Look at the offer page,then click the link, then go back or change the web page. A pop up box will come up, asking did you want 3 free coupons , if yes enter your email address. Also besides the points, the coupons can be useful, and they are free.

I was just pointing out that I had taken advantage of the offer fairly recently (actually only 2 weeks ago to be precise), and was glad to get it before it apparently had been discontinued. But glad to enable you to use that Truman/election line you've been saving for a while.

IIRC, this offer has come up before but don't remember them giving 750 MyPoints for just trying the free coupon thing. I seem to recall it was something much smaller, like 25 MyPoints and then 750 if you actually ordered the Entertainment Book itself.

I remember that, too, but not sure how many points. It certainly wasn't 750.

This is the kind of offer that, if I were to participate, I would most certainly keep everything printed out ready to fax to mypoints if they miss the crediting to my account.

Some say it is gone, others no. I got an email today whose subject was entitled: December Account Statement in my inbox and if you click on the megarewards section of it, it brings me right to a page that says this:

750 Points
Save $5 on the 2005 Entertainment Savings Book. Free shipping and 750 Points! (Weekly)

and if you click that, you get to this page:

Now, I bet those above links are going to access my portal but if you look at them it gives you the guts of the pages for this offer. IT is still alove, but my experience with this book has never been good so I am not going to do it. In addition, although it is a lot of points, I have the feeling I'd be spending some time chasing them down. For me, anything over 25points in mypoints offers constitutes printing the pages out and keeping all history of what I did til I see the points post and the promotional product(s) arive.

Good luck!

Since you can't get back to the mypoints site from the above link, I doubt you could get the points even with a printout. Both mypoints and Entertainment.com know the date of when the relationship ended, so you can't claim points after that date.

maybe not but if the ad for this very offer is STILL on thier site then what is that called?...

I mean, if I signed up BASED on seeing that ad right now, I would gather they'd better honor it, unless the link from the ad is no longer working. In that case, their web dudes need to do a few updates today.

I can't find the ad for the entertainment book or see it listed in the quicklist by merchant.

then that means they work fast and the thing I saw this morning at like 6am EST is now GONE! In fact I just checked my same email as posted earlier and yup, it is gone!

My email had been dated Jan 2 and today is the 3rd and I gather that like my bank, things update to the new business day at around 6am. So the web guys went to work and so be it.

Well, had you printed it out you might have been able to try and then fight for the points, but on the other hand, now at least all can rest easy that it is just gone and so there's no more point worrying about it. Those who had done the offer should have proof but if not, you will just have to see if they honor your 750pts!
let's hope.
