I recently joined and was accepted by blockbuster and I was wondering if there are any other members here that are a member there. I saw so far the best thing is the 6 free dvd's from blockbuster for the $25. level.

You get a $5 sign up bonus if you regester with them in a certain time frame after they accept you. My acceptance took 3 days.

It's basically a get paid to read email program for those of you who heard nothing of it. This is one of over 50 survey type programs I have found and never heard anything of.

I've been with them for maybe a year or 2. The only rewards that they have that seem worthwhile to me is the Blockbuster but the only thing about that is that there are no blockbusters near where I live!!! I think I have about $50 to redeem and I hope they get new rewards soon!! I think they have had the same ones since I joined. I may just have to redeem for Blockbuster and just give it to someone that has one near them.

What you could do is give it as a birthday gift to someone. After all you did earn it.

Thanks for your reply, btw

I have been a member for over 2 years. I took the 6 free video rentals last year. According to the rules, you need to select a reward for the past years earnings by a certain date. This program is not time consuming and is well worth the time spent.

The Blockbuster awards have your name on them when you print them out. You never know when some zealous Blockbuster clerk might deny them (if you give them as a gift) because of the name issue.

The first year I was a member my points expired before I could even reach the level to get the Blockbuster awards. I was upset about that, but thought I would give it one more try. I am on my last Blockbuster award from "last year" and I am close to having enough points to get some more. So, it has definitely improved since that first year.

That was a good idea about a birthday gift AmyLynn but it's a bummer that our name would be on the coupons. I do like that fact that the points/cents add up quick. I wish certain other programs like it would be just as easy.

I've been a member for over 3 years.

Big Negative - the money does expire each year.
Negative - you have to earn enough to cash out (traditionally $25)
Negative - Blockbuster Free Rentals now have to be self-printed and have your name on it - prior to this year they would mail you certificates.

Positive - they are real & they do deliver
Positive - I've cashed out everywhere
Positive - they have added an Earn Now section where you can earn by signing up for stuff like UPromise, this is good if you are close to your next reward level.
Positive - you can now get Hilton HHonor points as well as other cash-out options (but looks like $25 is still minimum)

I'd recommend joining them.

That is my

Update on program. I received an email this month letting me know that I had been selected for an upgraded "subscription." I was notified that my points will no longer expire. It indicates that as long as I continue regularly filling out surveys, they would not review the account again until next year.

I've been with them for about 2 or 3 years, and I have about $144.50 in my account. I am not too excited about the choice of prizes they have; however, I will be moving to FL soon, so the one about the car rental may come in handy.

I, too, received the email stating that my account has been upgraded; maybe they'll come out with more/better redemptions soon.

I already turned my earned money into the free Blockbuster DVDs. This time I am going to convert the money into Hilton Honors points. You have to be careful, because in the fine print it does state that the money you earn has to be used by a certain date. However, this time I received an email saying that they would carry over the amount until Dec 2004.

I love e-rewards! I've been a member since the beginning and have gotten alot of Hilton Honors points with them. Every year I've been offered an extension so my money doesn't expire--usually it's completing a survey. Whenever I get $50.00 in my account though I always cash out and apply it to my HH membership. I've received several free hotel nights this way. I'd highly recommend them--especially if you like to travel.

The only thing I have found worthwhile is the 6 free Blockbuster rentals for $25. However, that's the most you can get for the Blockbuster rentals, and you can get it only once a year. I need to redeem $134 by July 31 and wish I could use it all on Blockbuster rentals. I'm considering the Hilton HHonors. What can you get with those besides hotel stays?

Just wanted to add my ! I am amazed how quickly I am earning with this site. I get 2 or 3 surveys a week, usually 4 or 5 and at least one pays a few dollars. I have done one a week for the past 4 weeks that paid $7 to $10! So I am impressed with not only the frequency of surveys that I qualify for (amazing... they send me invitations to surveys I can take!), but they pay very well. Even when you do not qualify or when it is just a quick 2 question survey, you get money. Yeah, some of the prizes arent too amazing, but I am going to build it up for a while then cash in those HH points. Free hotel stays = happiness.

I just LOVE e-rewards! I wait to get to the $50 level and cash it in for 3000 Hilton Hhonor points - at 25000 points I get a free night at a really nice Hilton! I've redeemed enough for a free night, and I'm half way to another free night!!!

I have noticed when it gets near to cashing out the surveys slow down more so than usual. Like when your at 0-15 you get loads. nearer you get to 25 the lesser they come but they do come. And the same with after 25-40. Am I the only one that this is happening to?

Just wondering...I wanted to cash in my e rewards for HH points, but I don't currently have a Hilton Honors account. Does anyone know if you can open an account and just fund it with the points you get from e rewards or do you have to have a credit card with them too?

Thanks

You can open an account and just fund it with the points. That's what I did last year.

I just joined e-rewards through an offer from Pier 1 Imports yesterday....I don't see any recent feedback on e-Rewards. Anyone have any updated info they might want to share?

Do the Hilton Honors rewards expire once you cash in? I'm not really sure how HH works...?

I get a steady amount of emails from them. You earn points by clicking on links in the email, and answering additional survey questions. The blockbuster reward is the best thing, but you can only redeem points for it once a year. I just recently redeemed a reward for airline miles, but I don't think they have been credited yet. I think you can only redeem those awards once a year too.
