abhilife2001 is based in Europe, so it's points, not $. And the problem is that out of the US/Canada, surveys arrive very infrequently. I hope you're lucky if you contact them, but I think that the chances of reaching 2000 points before 1 Aug are very slim. :(

Priority Club
 
I was going to top off my Priority Club account with my E rewards. I thought I previously saw that as an option. When I logged in Priority Club was not listed. Did they go away?:confused: can I get them back?

Still listed as an reward option for me. Some of us have different options depending on who our original "sponsor" was. I don't think you can change your options.

I still show it as an option but it all depends what company you originally signed up with. that determines which rewards you see. If its gone you can't get it back unless you completely delete your account, hope you get another sign up offer for a place that has that particular reward at some point. I've always disliked the fact that you can't choose what company you are considered "with" even when you get multiple offers to sign up.

It's not exactly like this. The IP address must match your country of residence, chosen when you subscribe. I've subscribed as an UK resident, and most of the surveys are not expired when connecting from the UK. Of course, UK residents get much less surveys than US.

I am based in India and my address registered is an Indian address.. I get very few surveys till now.. but yday when I logged in I modified the settings to enable me to get more surveys..

Btw, for points I see the minimum redemption amt is 2000, but for $ its only 10 ?? Does this mean $1 = 200points approx ??

I can see multiple rewards options but all start at 2000 opinion points..

Sometimes they will extend the expiration date for you. If you e-mail their customer service and ask nicely, MAYBE they will do this. Or, maybe they can at least send you some more surveys.

Also, did you update your settings to increase the frequency of surveys?

Yes, I did update my settings now, but wish I had logged in earlier .. Anyway will send them a mail today itself though I fear it may be too late..:(

I had used $100 to get 7,000 Hilton points earlier this year and figured the surveys, which seemed to be fewer and further between, would dry up. But yesterday I was able to do a survey for $7.50 that took me to $103 again so I redeemed it for another 7,000 Hilton points - which were in my account within minutes! Since I have never paid to stay in a Hilton Hotel, have had 4 free nights so far, and have 170,000 points built up to use on a long vacation (I'm retired so I need one) - I love programs like this :-)

Indeed most free proxies don't come with javascript. But try this.

After opening the e-Rewards link on any proxy, as soon as you click on the "Proceed to Survey" button and the proxy starts to load, immediately copy the resultant URL that appears on the proxy URL. You must do this quick, sometimes the resultant URL changes within a second or so! Then open a new page on your browser and paste that resultant URL on it, and you'll likely get through to the actual page. This "trick" does work for me sometimes.

Thanks for the idea! I have had that problem sporadically but was getting through in Hotspot shield. I have $20 expiring today so the best I can do is a e-subscription to PC Mag, I sent $30 to PC but couldn't get to $60. Many surveys come in at a time when I can't do them right away so even with the Hotspot shield I still get there too late.

Does anyone know if I can deposit points into the same Priority Club Rewards account from two (or three) different e-rewards accounts? PCR have a promotion going on for double points until August 31st. Thanks.

Brendan Aug 3, 2010 1:31 pm

Foxberg, IDK, but do U know how long it takes PC points to post from e-r? Is it instant like HH, or ... ?

Points for PC post on the following Tuesdays. I'm not sure if it applies if redeeming on Sat, Sun or Mon. But very fast. Over all, I think you can get more for 4k PC then 7K HH. HH is absolutely devalued.

I logged in today to my account fearing that I will now be having very few opinion points with 709 points scheduled to expire on 1st aug 2010..
Surprise surpirse, I see no points hv expired and the new expiry shows 1st aug 2011 !!! ^ All this when i didnt even send them the email since missed sending it on the weekend and then it was too late :)

Now, hope to start getting some surveys to reach 2k points within this period :o

Yes, you can. Even simultaneously (while the first points havent posted). Have done this.

You mean even the e-Reward Account name does not match PCR Account name it will still post?

Why even discuss/debate this issue?

With E-Rewards they allow you to change the name/address/etc as often as you would like so why not just change it to match the PCR account (or whatever account you are transferring to), do the transfer, and then change it back after the transfer posts?

Very little effort and it will always work .... you don't need to "worry" about it.

I have done this many times and it has always worked.

No, the names must match AFAIK. Had changed the names of both accounts to be the same.

I do not know e-Reward allows you to change account name.

just a friendly reminder....

even if you see surveys listed which you have already taken, remember to click on them and cycle thru and click "finish" as you may have a simple survey (maybe 10¢/maybe more) hiding out there. i had 3 of them this morning

:)

akonradi Aug 11, 2010 1:50 pm

Did anyone else complete a survey on wireless phone service in early July? There were two follow-up prompts, both of which I completed: one for $2.00 and another for $10.00. The $10 one wanted lots of specific usage information from my verizon service, which I provided. And over a month later, the original amount along with the $2.00 follow-up amount have posted, but the $10.00 is nowhere to be seen.

I sent an email to e-rewards member services and they're telling me that everything has posted, being so kind as to paste a screenshot of my account activity showing everything except the $10.00. I return their emails repeating that I'm just missing one of the follow-up credits, and they respond with the same garbage every time. blurg

WOW!!! Thanks! I just found an extra $1.25 in one of the accounts. I'm gonna check other ones for "Easter eggs"!

*EDIT* Found $1.00 in another one!

Good luck with earning e-Rewards!

Sorry, no invite for NL, but registered another one for myself :D Why don't you register with some US address and then collect e-rewards $ and use them for Hilton or PCR? You would probably be able to put US address in those programs before the redemption and then change it back after the deposit? These two are the only ones worth redeeming for from this invite. The rest are Macy's, Borders, Blockbuster and Western Union.

Brendan Aug 15, 2010 7:50 pm

Sorry for the delay, Foxberg, but thank U for your answer #297. I redeemed ER$100 on Tue. Aug. 3 & got 4K Tue. Aug. 10 in the PM. It was nice to know that the delay was normal. Still waiting for the 2x bonus PC points, which probably will come after the Aug. 31 end of the promo.
4K PC kinda = 7K HH, but 8K PC >> 7K HH!

Wow I wish i got that many surveys. Most i get i dont even qualify for. hard to add up to $100 when you are only getting $1 or $2 at a shot. Oh wells. anything is better then nothing.

Same here.. i login for most surveys that I get and I dont get many even after changing my preferences in their site but still I hv not managed to get enough points for even 1 redemption yet in the last 1 year :(

I feel for you guys. I was luckier. I redeemed for two 4K from PCR and have $70 in my account now hoping for another $100 before August runs out to hit another double bonus. If not I'll have to settle for 2200 PCR plus double bonus. And I redeemed 4K PCR from my wife's account as well for the double. That one is at $35 now, so at least I'd be able to redeem for 1K plus double by the end of August.

Hi - where is the info on this double point promo? I don't see it in e-rewards or priority club - is it targeted? I see it ends on August 31st from posts in this thread - when did it start? Thank you!

Its PCR promotion and should be somewhere in that forum. Also it is not targeted.
Starting on Jul1 but ends on aug31st.

Okay here you go:

Awesome - thank you! Any idea if this is retroactive? I just registered mine and DH accounts now, and I have redeemed for both of us since July 1st.
