If it's the same one I got, it's some sort of 'watch a video andtell us what you think' follow-up survey. And for the second time, clicking through the e-Rewards link got me a 404 'not found' error.

Because they sometimes do quality control checks after the fact, I do sometimes comment about really bad logical screws ups when they ask at the end of the survey- stuff like 'I said I lived in Florida. Why would you think I either owned or knew anything about snowblowers'

Sigh. I am $0.70 short of another redemption, and it's always annoying when I'm that close and will have to wait another day or two for cash out.

People often move to Florida because of their extensive interactions with snowblowers. Are you that rare unicorn that actually is a Florida native?

Nope but I've been down here effectively my entire adult life and my parents in Michigan didn't let the kids use the lawn & driveway care power tools for safety reasons.

I've read a few comments on here that people have redeemed points from their account to their partners redemption company successfullyou.

My question is, does this work on your partners redemption account within the 30 x days since a last redemption was made which is normally blocked.

There cannot be any restrictions from erewards as the redemption is not originating from the chosen account, I'm trying to work out if the company who transfers the points on behalf of erewards have control or the redemption company can block the redemption if within 30 x days.

I'm not sure if this will answer your question or not. My wife and I both have E-Rewards accounts. If I use her account to redeem into her airline/hotel program, then try to redeem from my account into her same airline/hotel account I get the message from E-rewards that I have to wait until whatever the redemption period is (30-90 days). So I wait until the next month and do the second redemption.

I think I've already answered this above, but no, you can't. E-rewards have in their database that someone redeemed to account XXX, and will block any other redemptions to it within the restricted time. But it does not hurt to try anyway...

So, do you know anyone who has tried this route?
What happens to the redemption, does it cancel and return the points to the originating account or does it simply not allow it to start.

Just spent 15 minutes doing a survey, got close to the end, and the app pops up an error message and closes out the survey entirely. This happens to me very frequently and is extremely 10/10 frustrating !!!!!! like for real eRewards ... is wrong and why do you keep doing this to me ?

Funny I got this same message also today. Perhaps visiting/begin in Washington DC today makes the system think I am in a foreign land.

I am getting the same message.
I hope it is a glitch and fixed soon.
