Posted over a year ago by doweyy and full credit to him.

Been chatting with the ProductReview Rep for the past few days to get this deal updated with fresh categories and terms. This is not just for new reviewers. Anyone can enter and redeem a gift card, provided the following conditions are met. Please read on:

  • Please log in and check the homepage. You will see a review counter indicating you how many reviews you require in order to receive the gift card. The presence/absence of the review counter on the homepage indicates your current eligibility (ie you'll see the counter if you haven't redeemed a card at all, or if you redeemed one previously but it has been reset in the lead-up to this post). If you can't see the counter it means you are not eligible for this giveaway, most likely because you redeemed a gift card for this promotion very recently.

  • Please read the T&Cs and FAQs. They're short and simple. If you have any questions, please email [email protected]

  • Proof of product purchase (any one of: receipt, photo of product with your ProductReview display name next to it, tax invoice, contract, email exchange between you and the company, etc) is now mandatory for this giveaway. This is due to attempts at gaming the system by some, so we've had to implement this additional check.

  • Gift cards are not sent immediately. They are sent via email on the first business day of each month to the registered email address of ProductReview.com.au members who wrote their fourth approved and published eligible review in the previous month. Your email address must be verified to receive the gift card, and each member is eligible to receive only one gift card from this promotion. Individuals are not permitted to create multiple accounts in order to receive multiple gift cards for this promotion.

  • We regularly run additional targeted giveaways which are announced through our email lists.

  • Please refrain from creating multiple accounts as this will null your eligibility for the gift card.

Since the last time this was posted here, we've also launched our Ambassador Program. This is a program where some of our best users can receive new and pre-release products to review and keep. For example, we recently gave out 75 Dyson V11 vacuums! Participation in this program is by invitation only, and we're currently actively looking for new participants who we hand-pick based on the number, frequency, and quality of their reviews.


Reviews from the following categories are the only ones eligible for the gift card:

Electronics:

4K Ultra HD TVs, Headphones, Mobile Phones, Wearable Tech (Smart Watches, Fitbits, etc), Tablets, Modems/Routers, Soundbars

Services:

Internet Services Providers (ISPs), Credit Cards

Appliances:

Fridges, Ovens, Coffee Machines, Microwaves, Blenders, Vacuum Cleaners, Dishwashers, Washing Machines, Clothes Dryers, Air Conditioners, Air Fryers, Irons, Electric Blankets, Heaters

  • "All four reviews must belong to one of the categories mentioned above in order to be eligible for this promotion." is included in Promotion Notes. Found this one before wasting time >>https://www.productreview.com.au/i/incentives/coles_20

  • I don’t know who to beleive, the irony…

    For what it's worth amongst all these negs… I have done this twice and gotten it both times. Just read the terms properly.

    This reminds me of the Dr Boom saga where his company posts fake reviews daily and gets away with it don't bother with your time https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/dr-boom-communicat… the site is a sham and full of fake reviews

    Worked for me last time too! I think i may have had to check spam mail for the Gift Card though, not too sure. Emailed a rep and they were quite helpful. Will def do four more this time!

  • +1

    I submitted 4 reviews and received the virtual card during the last promo period.

  • +6

    I provided two negative reviews with an evidence but they both got rejected last year.

    Provided 5 star review without evidence just few weeks ago and it got published within 10min without a need to provide evidence.

    They are joke.

      Have to keep their (business) customers happy!

      As the marketing manager for a company. We get boned too. Someone leave us a negative review with no proof, it is posted straight away. Someone posts a positive with proof, nothing, never goes up.
      When we question it, we get asked to pay money for support. I am sure if we paid we'd probably get the opposite.

    84+ … I guess its just because OP is TA !!!!!

    I have to supply evidence for my reviews, but ive just been lazy in that regard,
    so for $20, I will get onto it over this week, upload receipts, take pics whatever. Plus update and provide further detail.

    Thanks to TA, I use this for scanning all my receipts and also the kids school awards etc

    works very well and can upload to my cloud accounts with ease

    so as soon as you get a receipt, well, once I get home,
    I scan and upload into the receipts folder in my cloud accounts, never lose a receipt again - always handy for things like this as well as always being able to show or print a copy if a return or warranty issue arises.

    Well no disrespect to the OP at all, he means well. It's just that I'm not going to waste my time with product review again after the false promises.

    Perhaps I might change my mind if they make amends and send me (and everyone else) the gift card for our previous reviews. Otherwise gtfo.

      Incredible. So you openly rort the system, brag about it, and expect to be rewarded as well. So much entitlement.

        Just love it!

      So you're the yobbo that pretty much killed it for the rest of us…

      • See here in case it applies to you.

    Did it before, got the $20 eGift, it did work.

    • It worked for me too last time, got the 20 bucks gift card with no problem.

    Affiliates and system gaming bogans.

    What happened to people with real jobs?

    I have once won a sizable gift card for submitting one of the "best reviews" in certain categories. They were very good about it and the process was fast. I did not even try to enter - I just happened to submit a review, and when they emailed me that I had won I vaguely recalled they had a competition going on. Not discounting other people's experiences, but for the sake of balance I want to say that they certainly kept their word.

  • +1

    Still haven’t the cards from last time. 1600+ views on one of my reviews.

    • PM me your ProductReview account email and I'll take a look.

  • +1

    Provided two reviews for the categories that are eligible for the coupon — all rejected. Provided two reviews for the categories that are not eligible for the coupon — all accepted. Fishy, huh?

    • PM me your ProductReview account email and I'll take a look. Categories and our own giveaways are not factors in the review approval process.

    I have emailed to the support, Received reply :
    Hey, thanks for contacting us.

    Your card was sent on 1st March last year, but I can see it was never accessed (I assume your inbox filtered it to Spam and you never saw it).

    The link to the card is valid. i revoked the neg

    Thanks OP for sharing, will complete the 4 reviews for an easy $20.

    What I found interesting was those who "didn't receive it" last time but turns out it was in the spam folder, why didn't you follow it up by contacting productreview months ago? I know that if I didn't receive the gift card as promised last time, I would've contacted them ASAP, rather than neg a deal months later without ever contacting them first. Just my 2 cents

    EDIT: Also just had a scroll through the previous deal and this deal, and I can see at least 15 comments mentioning that they have received the gift card, so this offer appears to have worked for many people. Even the more reason to contact them first before hitting the neg button.

  • I did the same last time. Nothing was sent to me. Not even an email and my reviews have been viewed thousands of times. Maybe I can leave a review on how poorly operated product review is! 😂

    • See this as it may apply to you.

    Got my $20 coles email just now.
    Was in my junk folder.

    • +2

      Also got mine :)

  • Hmm.. checked spam, haven't received any emails yet.

  • I completed 4 reviews in May when the proof of purchase wasn't a requirement and got all my reviews published. I've checked my spam folder and e-mails and haven't gotten the card yet so I e-mailed Product Reviews about it and now they say I need to provide proof of purchase when I don't have those anymore!

    • +1

      All you need is some pics:

      Proof of product purchase (any one of: receipt, photo of product with your ProductReview display name next to it, tax invoice, contract, email exchange between you and the company, etc).

    • Proof of purchase has been a requirement for the last 6 months at least, it's not something we just introduced for this post.

  • +1

    I have posted 3 reviews, all OK, everything was published and verified. Then I posted Tefal Soup and Co review, it was published and verified, but I did not get my 4 reviews to get $20. When I started digging into it - productreview qualifies Soup and Co as a soup maker and not a blender. And "soup maker" is not one of the categories you get rewarded for. OK, no problem. I reviewed a stroller that I just bought. The review is in "pending" for the last 4 days and there is no point of contact for customer support.
