Is it just me, or are we getting more Bonus Emails from My Points?

I cashed out back when there was a scare about them going under, and I already have enough points to do another $5 cashout again.

Doesn't it seem like it's better, not worse? Or are these holidays just making me think time's going by faster! :rotfl:
 
It seems to me in years past, emails are always great around the holidays, but this year we are not seeing Max at all. I miss Max.

I haven't gotten any e mails from my points in months

Have you gone into the new MyPoints site & updated all of your preferences & profiles? Once I did that, the emails started pouring in - recently, I've been getting up to 7 or 8 emails per day.
 

I've been getting a lot of emails too but am having problems getting my points for shopping...anyone else?

I actually feel like my shopping points are showing up more quickly, and since the changeover, I have not had to email them to request points once.

Sorry you're having issues.
 
I also got my points awarded right away with no begging!
 
Darn, I'm going to have to send an email. I got points for a recent purchase right away but not points for purchases around 6 weeks ago.

Thanks! Now I know I need to take action... :teeth:

It's hit and miss whether I get points for my shopping. With the holidays, I've done a lot more shopping through them, but have only gotton points for about 30% of my purchases. I've emailed them twice, but no luck. They are really very frustrating to me.
 
I seem to get points right away if I purchase through their website. When I try to purchase through an e-mail that they send, I always have to fight to get my points.

On the last Dell Bonus Mail, I ordered 3 laptops on 3 different days each over $500. I should have received 3,000 points for each purchase. I even e-mailed and called MyPoints to make sure I could use the same e-mail to purchase multiple laptops and they said yes.

Well...they credited one of them for me and I've been waiting for 3 weeks....e-mailing them once per week....about the other 2 transactions. No word yet.

In the meantime, I purchased $300+ worth of office supplies for my office here and received the points right away.

I really only use MyPoints for Dell and Office Depot purchases. They offer excellent deals on these two vendors. I order around $400+ in office supplies every other month for my office and receive 4,000 points which is the equivalent of a $25 WebCertificate every other month.

Speed :moped:
 
Update: I have placed 5 orders w/MyPoints...the three I have not received the points for were at the end of October so I emailed on those (the click-thrus do show up on my account statement so at least they can see I went through them to the site). The two I placed at the end of November I already have credit for. One of them, BestBuy.com, I had two orders, one I've got points for (the recent) and one I haven't (the October order). I guess something happened at the end of October.

Keeping my fingers crossed for those points! :)
 
Well, I'm getting plenty of bonus emails, but the cupboard is pretty bare at MyPoints. A huge number of the rewards are "temporarily out of stock."
 
:confused3 I'm getting my points for shopping and reading my email but when I've tried to redeem points the site isn't showing me how many points I need to redeem for gift cert.'s.
Anyone else having this problem or is it just me.
