New offer at freevideogames.com (freedvds too?):
OfficialAuctioneers
Looks pretty similar to OfficialAuctions, which means an easy 500 points for only $1. I haven't had time to try it out yet though.

Thanks everyone! I just submitted my request for an xbox at freevideogames.com. Now the test will see if I ever receive it. Unfortunatly, I don't have much patience so it won't be easy waiting.
Any ideas of how my roommates could take advantage of these sites w/o us getting put on hold?

I just did two book club offers
Crafters Choice (400 pts)
Science Fiction Book Club (400 pts)
Both had the bill me option and both credited instantly, then just went in and cancelled the order and changed the address.
Edit: I spoke too soon, just did:
Country Home and Gardens Book Club
and had to enter credit card info, but you can immediately go into the site and cancel the order. My card has a pending charge but that should go away.
Also did Official Auctioneerz? even though I believe I did it before when it was called Official Auctions? It credited instantly for 500 pts.

FitMD and WinAnyLotto have been pulled from my listing...tried to do them, but wasn't given the $1 option, just $39.99. This may be an attempt to fix that, and they'll be back in a bit (hopefully...that's 1000 points I could use, especially since they've switched to Billing Support!)

Just wanted to let everyone know that I did the Matchmaker trick yesterday and it worked fine.
Has anyone actually received their Home Depot gift card from CompleteHome? I completed and sent the form back about a month ago and have yet to receive anything.

This is kinda funny. Yesterday I called the AutoVantage offer to confirm my cancellation, and of course they didn't cancel it and it was still active, so I had to sit through and listen to her and say "no thanks" 5 billion times. Then she canceled it and got a cancelation #. Now, I have all the cancelation numbers for each offer, should I still call and double check to see if they were canceled?

A few questions...
1.) Has anyone been able to get the free trial at FitMD, Shopping4money, Driving4Dollars, or WinAnyLotto in the past week?
2.) What is everyone's experience with Clever Clubhouse, Travelers Advantage, AutoVantage, and Event Privledges? Easy to cancel? No hidden charges?
3.) Has anyone received their points for completing the Discovery Channel Book Club?

I signed up for clever clubhouse and travelers' advantage two weeks ago and cancel it last week. So far, I don't see any charges on my CC yet. The sales person can be pushy but just say 'no thanks.' And they will give you a confirmation number when you cancel.

Haven't checked as I already did these, but the feeling I get is that they aren't availible right now.
2.) What is everyone's experience with Clever Clubhouse, Travelers Advantage, AutoVantage, and Event Privledges? Easy to cancel? No hidden charges?
All 4 are easy points for low money. Easy to cancel (just have to waith through the speech and say thank you but i no thanks)
3.) Has anyone received their points for completing the Discovery Channel Book Club?
I have not yet received the points (only book club not to send points immediatly, and frankly i'm not counting on receiving them soon.

Speaking of not getting credited, I have a few offers I am still waiting on that I did a long time ago between 11/13 and 11/20.
11/13 Columbia House TV Greats
11/18 New York Times (subscription starts in January)
I hate to get credited manually on the two above because I know people have had problems getting too many credited manually (had 1 so far). Anyone else having problems with CH or NYT's?
On a VERY happy note I just got credited for Casino-on-net 1600 pts. Just followed lxjenkins advice on page 3 of this thread. Deposited $45 using neteller (didnt do insta-transfer so they didnt charge me $4 I guess) got a 20% bonus on the 1st deposit making my deposit $54. I played a few rounds of $1 blackjack got up to 60 something then back down to 54 and pulled my money back out to neteller so looks like I made $9 plus 1600 points just for signing up. Not a bad deal if you can stand moving some money around like that.

How do you repeat those DealPass offers with the same credit cards? It seems DealPass doesn't work when I try to sign up offers under a different account at Freedvds.
For people who have done multiple accounts, how do you repeat those offers? Did you use a different credit card?

Looks like an easy 300 points. You have 30 days to use 60 minutes of service. A charge for $1 is put on your credit card.
To cancel, the Help tells you to call 1-888-259-3826, but I am going to try to email billing instead, once I receive my points.
I'll let everyone know how it goes. If this is a repost, please let me know so I can delete this.
Update: I was able to cancel via there contact customer service page. No need to call to cancel.
