Hi there, If you qualified, you wouldn't get the gift card until AFTER the time period that reviews were due in. I'm not sure what the time period is or what promotion you were working towards, so you can always contact Paula@viewpoints.com or meredith@viewpoints.com to ask them about it.

Overall though, you don't get a gift card until AFTER the deadline for reviews and then there are a few days where they have to verify your entries.  So if (hypothetically) the deadline was April 30th, you wouldn't get a gift card until sometime in early May.  They have to collect all reviews and then verify them before giving out the cards.

I got mine and others got theirs unless there are different promotions for different people (like from other sites). If you qualified, you definitely should email one of the above or Jolie@viewpoints.com to see what the deal is. They're great here and will help you quickly.

I think the promotion has ended

 I thought it ended at the end of April.

Some people have different promotions, so really the only way to be sure is to ask Meredith, Jolie or Paula.

For those coming from BzzAgent here's what the site states

"To get your $25 restaurant.com gift card, you must submit 5 qualified reviews to viewpoints.com by June 10, 2009."

If you don't hear anything by the end of the month then you may want to e-mail the above.  Hope that helps.

Thanks so much for posting the details of this promotion.  You're correct that the promotion period ends on June 10, 2009.  I checked out the official rules which state that all entries will be validated and gift cards will be issued within 45 days of posting so if you don't receive an email with details about your gift card by the end of June please check with Meredith, Jolie, or me and we'll look into it.

Thanks!

Do we always get gift cards for each 5 reviews we submit? what is this about a time frame? are there different promotions and if so what is a promotion? and how do i get involved in one? excuse me for sounding so lost, but i really am Lol

Hello!  No we do not always get a gift card.  There are a few promotions going on or that have gone on where the users get a gift card after 5 valid reviews.  Above the mentioned on is about BzzAgent users who got a special promotion that goes until June 10, but I believe that only applies to people who came from BzzAgent.com

The last promotion I knew of that was available site wide was in April, but I'm not aware of any others right now.

Hi icon65!

The promotion, Write 5 Reviews, Get a $25 Gift Card to Restaurant.com, expired April 30. However, we have a separate program running for BzzAgent affiliates who registered for Viewpoints via BzzAgent.com. That program started later so it doesn't expire until June 10, 2009. You must be a registed BzzAgent joining Viewpoints to be eligible, we track registration on the back end.

Now, to your question on how to get involved -- Stick around the site! You will not be able to join a current promotion running now but we do plan on running additional promotions in the near future. 

No worries about having questions! That's what we're here for... and please feel free to email me directly if you have additional questions: meredith@viewpoints.com

Thanks,

Meredith

P.S. Thank you Vivasuzi for jumping in and helping folks out here with questions! Much appreciated :)
