One Time tips
I. On the Sony Rewards site, go to Your Account > Your Profile > Communications and make sure the following are checked:
Yes, I would like to participate in Wheel Watchers Club activities and receive a SPIN ID.
Yes, I would like to receive information from SPT and other events, promotions and sweepstakes from Sony Pictures Entertainment.
click update to update your profile (these changes are needed to play the daily games for points).

II. From the main page of Sony Reward website, there is an invite friend link (javascript, towards bottom of page). Click the link, and add an email address you can check (@mailinator works great for this).
Wait for the invite to come to your alternate email address, follow the instructions (sign up for).
You will get 25 points for sending the invite and 50 points for joining! This gives you 375 points total if you use your full allotment of 5 invintes!

III. Create a wishlist for 50 points

IV. Answer the questionnaire in your profile for 50 Points. Your Account>Your Profile>Questionnaire (LAST TAB)

Because I closed my account. By keeping it open, you are just letting the MFers get away with it.

Boycott Sony.

As for me, once bitten twice shy. Live and learn. Don't make the same mistake twice. etc.

Do you really believe you will get the points this time?

He is very right.. No more of this $hit.. Way back in March, I called them and asked that I havent received anything in email but I learnt about theis 10,000 point promo on Internet, am I eligible and that retarded CSR told me sure you are, even gave me the URL to check it out.. And now they are telling me that they had no way to tell before July who was eligible and who wasn't.. So they were just feeding us BS all this time and telling us to be patient.. She got an earful from me that day.. and I do keep on calling them and yelling at them whenever I have nothing better to do.. They messed around with me for so long.. now its payback time..

Ya, I do ... these points doing these games and invites immediately add to my points ... so there is no doubt.

As for the 10,000 points, who knows ... all one can do is write the FTC, BBB and Atty Generals.

As it can take these organizations up to 6 weeks to get any results, I am far from throwing in the towel.

[spacemonkey]

brilliant! but your math is a little off...30pts/day x 30 days is 900 points, unless the daily questions aren't really daily. +40 for the weekly would be 940 total. where's the discrepancy? and it just allowed me to do 5 invites.

haha only need like 250 points for the bluray remote now. i can't see myself doing this for much longer than that tho

[Sead0nkey]

Thanks this is very usefull

[addtd2sd]

thanks but i was able to complete only the 3rd one
it asked me to login when i clicked the first link>question (i was logged in already)
2nd link...couldn't find where to put the spin ID (maybe i'm just blind:P )

[wynams]

Yeah my math is a little off ... it is a rough estimate.

Sometimes you put in the correct answer and the website marks you wrong ... sometimes they forget to post a new question on a given day ... and this is just M-F (no weekends).

[bucky13]

defiantly going here...earning points to a new PS3...

[wynams]

The rewards store has finally added Dual Shock 3s at 4250 - 5000 points depending on your level.

Previously they just had wireless six-axis ... anyone closing out their sony accounts ... this is a pretty good way to spend a few thousand points before you say sayonara

60 days from purchase date. With the increased demand, I would send the purchase credit in @30-40 days just to be sure. Not worth losing $21 just to get another dollar.

That really is a bitch. Especially since gift cards cost pennies for them to send out. Sony = Greed.

What really sucks is that only a certain number of points can be used towards items (unless you have well over 10,000 points), so when you want the gift card, you have to pay $16 or so just to get the $25 gift card. I wonder if all the hassle is really worth it?

If you have Sony Card, it is worth it then. You can use unlimited points.

Was worth it to me. Bought a PS3 from Sonystyle, (gave 2000 points at 5x points) and then did the trivia and other things for points for a month and half and got a $31 purchase credit applied to my account.

I have a question or two...

Is the wheel of fortune aniversary question everyday?

and

And about the redeeming the prizes....if I have more points than needed for the prize, lets lay 7000 for the 5000 point controller, do i still have to pay for shipping or will they use my points for that?

1) Aniversary question is every couple of days

2) I do not think there is any other shipping charge. I order all the time and never have gotten a charge. However, I do have sony card.

There's a sony rewards link that you have to click on after registering the product. Once you do one then you can go into history and re-click the link instead of registering more products.(shortcut)

[narek23]

Sometimes it seems like when I earn more points, I have to log off and back in before they'll show up. Try that if they're not showing up for you.

[narek23]

You also get 100 points just for signing up for the sony blu-ray club, might wanna add that to the wiki

Also, how do you get to the final jeopardy thing? And has the questionaire been taken down? I can't find that

[leenicho]

This is pretty sick..

So, for the 20% it says "One item" not really "One order" So, I wonder if Sony will catch on?

I mean, why stop at 30% off 3k in gift cards.. You can also order PS3's at 30% off eh?

Dang, seems like I should be buying 10K in lowes gift cards.. for my house remodel.. 30% off, then use the 10% movers coupon.. jeeeez.

I hope sony doesn't catch on!

Time to find a credit card to sign up for with 0% on new purchases for a year..

I usually check the site weekdays after work. By then both the WoF and SPT questions are posted. These are the only two dailies, the WoF 25th anniversary question appears to be weekly and the polls are random.

However, don't forget to do the Sony product registration for 2500 free points, check the blu-ray club page for occasional polls, etc, and update your wish list every month for some more points.

Been doing this for 2-3 months, hope that helps.

Do you have a sony card or playstation card? If you do, just go buy it in stores and get a credit for it. That is what I do for a lot of my purchases cause it makes sense when you get a slickdeals on a PS3 game to just get it for free from points.

Yeah, I have a Playstation card (from Chase) which I used a while back to get $100 off my PS3.

Yea, you still get credit. You can't buy from ebay but you can get it from any store. The process is like this

1) Go buy it and save your receipt
2) Copy your reciept
3) Go online at sonyrewards.com and go under your account. There should be a link for
"View Purchase Credit Form."
4) Fill out the form and print it out
5) Send it in
6) Wait 4-6 weeks (They dont credit faster to make sure you don't return)
7) You will get a deduction on your bill for the same amount
8) Do a little dance :lmao:

Been doing this for a while. So, worth it because of all the free points. Got so many free games from it :) If you need anymore help, just PM me.

I also did not see any linkage between product registration and points accumulation. I registered a Sony item anyways as a test, and no points were added. I suspect that the linkage between product registration and points has been removed. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Then what do you do after the spin and how do you use it?

I should have play more earlier.

I already sent it my mail to get $ credit. That takes up to 60 days? Hopefully I can play longer to pay off more. I am paying my mininum balance.

Nope. If they were on hold they only get put back into your account. Will not get applied toward your purchase credit. Make sure you're not playing games/contest when submitting a cash redemption.


BTW does anyone know if registering sony products still gives 500 points?

[sirens]

no they don't.

[chong67]

My points had been racking up and up playing the games. I wish I had play sooner !!!

RIght now I am waiting for my points to convert to cash. I already sent in my paper work.

Looking at paying off my new Sony Vaio YB for less than $250 and counting!

[chong67]

I got my cash reward confirmation today:

$489.99 - ( $14.70 FW) - 241.57 = $233.72 for a new Sony Vaio YB

I think I am going to continue playing on that website.
