for some strange reason my son's account was completly removed. He had to re-enroll. We tried logging in over and over and was unable. We contacted them and said he is not enrolled. Wierd. He doesn't even remember how many points he had before.
Neither of my kids are able to login. All caps nor all lowercase works. I've emailed them and am waiting on a response. dd had a good bit of points - sure hope she doesn't lose them. ds had just cashed out couple weeks ago for amazon and got it yesterday. sure hope they don't have to re-enroll and lose what points they have.

The amazon Gift Cards are under Rewards (in line near top),
then along the left - Gift Certificates - Books & Media
(they are currently out of the $10 amazon)

When You are on the Home page -
second line of options are Ways to Earn Points and "Take Surveys" is farthest right in that line.

Hope that helps!

thanks for the help ^^
i tried to repped you but its saying that i have to rep others before i give another one.. u helped me with the free book thread once... and i repped u there :worthy: :hug2: :hug2:

I keep looking at the left side in the rewards section and my only choices are room rewards, donations, coupons, and sweepstakes. Do I need to have a certain amount of points to view the gift certificates. Thanks.

When I am not signed in I see see Room Rewards, Donations, Coupons, Sweepstakes along the left of the Rewards page.

When I sign on to javaNiece's account I see Room Rewards, Donations, Gift Certificates, Merchandise, Coupons, Sweepstakes

...so I assume signing in makes a difference...are you signed in?

When logged in to my 10 year old's account under rewards is:

Room Rewards
Donations
Coupons
Sweepstakes

So don't think it matters whether your logged in or not!

Seems too me the teens have the other rewards (giftcards, etc) and the younger kids don't.

It comes up on my youngest (8 year old) account and he has a little over 10,000 points. They have to have the 10,000 points in their account before they are able to see the amazon or other money GC rewards I think. :)

The 10.00 amazon GC's are there for my youngest (8 year old) but they say OOS for my oldest (17 year old). Not sure the reason for that either.

How do you check to see if gift cards that you recently ordered has been shipped? My Grandaughter ordered $50 Walmart cards that she had been saving points for to use for Xmas. The last time she looked it said that it was pending, but now we can't see if it has been shipped yet. Hope someone can help her....

I cannot help with your question. But I want to give you a heads up as others my son order a 20 dollar wal-mart card and they sent him a 10 dollar one did not find that out till he made a purchase. they said they new they made a mistake after they sent them out. I am thinking well then why did you wait for me to e-mail you about it. good thing it wasn't a gift for someone.

so now we are still waiting on the other ten, which been two weeks now.


My question is so they are no longer doing the gift cards right?

thanks

About those who can't see the gift cards

Thank you for contacting us. We received your support request and are happy to help.

Members who have joined the WR Games and Rewards program after September 2008 are unable to redeem their points for merchandise and e-gift cards. If you have a user account that was created prior to September, log in using that account. While we are unable to consolidate your points, by using your old account, you will be able to redeem your earned points for merchandise and gift cards.

If you do not have an old account with us, don’t forget that you may still participate in sweepstakes and auctions to obtain these prizes.


Unfortunately, my account "disappeared", and they refuse to reply everytime I ask about it.

They stole points from me. Other than that, I can't get any surveys to work. When I click the "Take Surveys" link, it logs me out and takes me to the main page. Any help?

My daughter (14)couldn't log into her account either and whenever I hit lost password it said Sorry, no account found with this email but my son (10)could log into his account with no problems at all. I just called my niece who is also 14 and told her try to log into her account and it kept telling her the her info was invalid as well.So, I think that maybe they are getting rid of all of the teens who are over 14 and having them sign up over at SayNation. Just a thought.

Maybe its a website glitch? or maybe they are migrating older people or certain accounts over. But god you would think they would tell you something instead of just locking you out my neice is type 1 diabetic child onset and stupid things really upset her and her blood sugar and she is freaking out . i think this is really cruel. i emailed them for her hours ago and nothing back who knows thanks for answering me atleast i can tell her its not just her and her friends but numerous people she was worried it was because her friends and her had used the same computer to do surveys recently i told her i didnt think that was a issue but didnt know . thanks anyhow ill post back if i find out anything please do the same for me

I just tried to sign my niece up and it says they have merged with Weekly Reader and it sends me to the WR kids page to sign up.
Then at the end it has this:

Join your Classroom or Group

Signup directly and choose a Weekly Reader Edition.

- OR -

Card_icon

- OR -

Magic Word


I don't know what to put there,but it won't let me go any further till I do.
I have tried to sign up twice and it sends me to the log-in page and says username/pw not valid.
But when I try to sign up again using the names I signed up with,it says not available,like it signed me up.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
