Add it to your adblocker's filter and it's gone -- the blocked element looks like this (for the UK site)

e-rewards.co.uk##div.chat-notifications-list.open:nth-child(29) > div.chat-notification > p

It still leaves the greenish logo intact, it doesn't disturb me

Hilton

Redeemed for Hilton Honors on 8/27, posted 8/31. E-rewards account showed as completed the same day instead of pending as in the past few redemptions.

I just redeemed $60 for 1,000 Accor points; first time I've redeemed with Accor. Does anyone know how long it usually takes for the points to show up in Accor? They said 6-8 weeks, but that's what they say for a lot of hotel/airline redemptions, and it usually doesn't take that long. tls

Usually less than 24 hours.

In my experience the points post next Monday, Wednesday and Saturday after redemption

Thanks, that's interesting. I requested it yesterday (Tuesday), and it's been a bit less than 24 hours, and nothing so far. Perhaps later today or Friday.

I should have asked this before I redeemed, but my account number has some spaces in it, and when I redeemed it wouldn't let me submit the redemption with spaces. So I deleted the spaces and it took the redemption. Is that the way it works for others? It's a a 16 digit account number this way (all numerals). tls

Yes, you should write it without the spaces. Not sure about Friday, when I redeem on Friday I get the points on Saturday. Buy it happens definitely on specific days of the week (when they run a script probably) , not some hours after redemption.

I keep getting an error message when trying to cash out to Iberia Plus Avios. Well outside of the 30-day restriction and I've never had problems before. Anybody else in the same situation?

I done some last Friday and the points landed Tuesday as expected. There were no issues then.

Well, I did get the Accor points. I don't know exactly when they were put in my account because I forgot to check for a few days, but it happened pretty quickly. tls

Lesson learned. Do NOT try to stop "You have a survey" e-mails. I used to keep a bunch in my In Box in case I couldn't find surveys other ways- clicking on one occasionally brought up another one. The new dashboard, though, has been great for finding surveys.

So...I tried to Unsubscribe from the e-mails. It brought me to a screen asking why but none of the listed reasons fit. I closed it down without proceeding. Next time I got onto e-Rewards it told me I'd cancelled my account. I had to go through the usual e-mail ticket process and be patient but my account was just restored. All the points are there. too.

And now I plan to put in an AutoFilter in my e-mail account to divert the Survey e-mails instead!

Hi guys I originally posted this in another thread but didn't get any response or answer, and I want to know what you guys think. It's from milesforopinions. Which is AA miles.

I did a REMESH survey that offered me $50. But it would be paid out in AA miles on milesforopinions. I asked them how many miles I would be getting for the value of $50. They came back and told me I would get only 2000 miles for that REMESH study. I guess they value $1.00 at 40miles. Does that seem low to you guys? Maybe the rep had the wrong number. What is your guy's valuation for $1.00 to AA miles with them? Please help

I know nothing about milesforopinions, so what I'm about to say may be comparing apples to kumquats. All I can tell you is that on e-rewards, 2,000 AA miles=$100 in e-rewards currency. So if there is an equivalency (and that's a big if), $50 for 2,000 miles would seem like a good deal.
