Chrisull Sep 2016 2:20pm, 7 Sep 2016 9,815 posts	Quote Pin Chrisull 1 in 3 yes, but with 1 in 6 a free spin, that makes it 2 in 5 (if you count the free spins as not existing). Really it's a tedious way of gaining extra bounts, quite often end up with 30 or 40. Just have to sit there clicking "spin", knowing that it is rigged. Maybe credits should go towards competitions as well/instead? Then I might feel more incline to enter!!!

HellsBells Sep 2016 8:52am, 8 Sep 2016 21,430 posts	Quote Pin HellsBells I used to get a "win" about one in every 7 but more recently it lands on the same segment 20+ times in succession - it's always the same segment so I just got pi$$ed off with it
Fitz Sep 2016 9:47am, 8 Sep 2016 1,592 posts	Quote Pin Fitz I'm on free bounts, it clicks away in the background building up my total veeeeery slowly. Occasionally I have a look to see if I can buy anything useful with these bounts, conclude that I can't, think about scrapping it, realise it involves no effort on my part, leave it running. Repeat paragraph 2. Repeat paragraph 2. Repeat paragraph 2. Repeat paragraph 2. etc.
Chrisull Sep 2016 7:04pm, 10 Sep 2016 9,857 posts	Quote Pin Chrisull Read the Money saving expert forums - everyone saying it's a con now, and that their business model is idiotic - sending out paper vouchers by first class post is just stupid. They have no cashflow, they will go under. forums.moneysavingexpert.com Cancelled my subscription today. If I can get one voucher for a £10, I will be £7 up so not wasted.
KinkyS Sep 2016 7:13pm, 10 Sep 2016 17,308 posts	Quote Pin KinkyS I paid £30 for a 3 year premium+ membership just over a year ago, and so far have had £75 H Samuel vouchers, £20 Boots vouchers and £30 Amazon vouchers (I got these a couple of days ago). So £95 profit in a year from fitbit steps plus a Garmin logged activity most days. It is a lot harder to get vouchers now because they sell out so quickly, but it's still doable for now at least, and even if it goes under I've made a profit from it.
Chrisull Sep 2016 7:18pm, 10 Sep 2016 9,859 posts	Quote Pin Chrisull I've just not been able to get a single voucher in the last week, even when I see one and click, they're gone by the time I get to the next page.
KinkyS Sep 2016 7:25pm, 10 Sep 2016 17,309 posts	Quote Pin KinkyS I guess it's just lucky timing then, as I managed to order 3x £10 Amazon ones last week. I initially ordered House of Fraser ones, but I then changed my mind and the Bounts team cancelled my order and refunded my points the same day so I could order something else, which I thought was pretty good customer service at least I always thought it would go belly up eventually because it didn't seem to be sustainable at all, so I'm not surprised in the least that they are now having problems. It worked really well in the early days when it was all fields etc etc, but I've been waiting weeks to get those Amazon vouchers, I had 22,000 points saved up so still got loads left to spend if I ever get another chance.
Rosehip Sep 2016 8:32pm, 10 Sep 2016 7,679 posts	Quote Pin Rosehip I joined early on and got transferred to premium for free. The first year +, before the MSE lot joined I got about £50 in Waitrose paper vouchers. Then I got £10 m&s gift card which I could top up with £10 most months. Neither is available any more and I have loads of points I can't spend as everything is out of stock and I also don't think the reward wheel is working properly. Hopefully the mse crowd will cut their losses and quit, as it stands the business just can't work.
