    If you refresh the page you can get 3 new questions. I have done it 4 or five times now!

      Thank you! Believe it or not – you are not cheating, but just found a way that we are being cheated over from a glitch by RB (or at least by IE). Read my comment below.

    @ jessica: that seems to be taking advantage of a good company.

      Totally agreed! There were several weeks I posted, frustrated that I was not offered Easy Greens for many consecutive offerings. A very nice responder kept telling me to hang in there … and now to read the above about taking advantage of a Recyclebank glitch is extremely disheartening.

      I disagree w/both rach & DrL. The points from “refreshing” screen have always been available but unaccessible (at least for people using IE [like me]). A “glitch” would be getting unlimited points for the same action. What Jess points out are “one time” only deals giving points due to RB’s fault for us not seeing or being allowed to see Easy Greens actions already available to us. One glitch I found out & wrote to RB about was unable to get the 6 total reading points on MBG & E911 @1pt ea a few months back. Glitches going on now (w/IE at least) are me not being able to get MBG or E911 points until 8:00pm EST and when getting the 1pt, the screen will not set – the timer just keeps spinning (although you still receive the point). Ever since RB “remodeled” the site, glitches abound – Jessica just found a resolution instead of requesting help from RB. Even you DrL can’t claim cheating as the Easy Greens you state you ‘never saw’ or were ‘missing’ were there all along, but unseen; they WERE offered. And did anyone receive points for the SAME QUESTION(S) more than once??? I think not. Thank you Jessica for not only pointing out seemingly lost points but for also realizing I need to stop using Explorer (IE) & start using Firefox or Chrome. BTW, on IE, the “Easy Greens” section is blank, which is NEVER supposed to happen, and Easy Greens are made available weekly, DrL.

        Whatever. The Easy Greens were NOT offered on Firefox, Safari, Chrome, nor IE – and Recyclebank never confirmed this. Still of the opinion that it’s off-kilter.

        • spongemonkey

          DrL: I have been doing RB for over 4yrs (over 6500pts) w/Easy Greens (“EG”) offered every week since my beginning. Safari, IE, Chrome, FFox, etc, whichever used makes no difference to what’s available, only to what’s seen (Thx to Jessica & my issue w/ IE). Everyone has equal rights to all pts available, but they need to be seen. I took a 10 month “vacation” from RB from 2011-2012. When I returned, I got 650pts (maybe was 850pts?) the FIRST DAY I returned. Did I cheat? Did I just keep on “refreshing” screens to accumulate illicit pts? NO; they were one time pts [still] available from non-expiring actions untaken throughout my 10mo sabbatical. Proof: Anyone who hasn’t taken any of the monthly Unilever actions have 120+pts available to them right now. Well the same goes for the WEEKLY EG’s, which stay available until expiration. Whereas, I usually see 2qty EG’s weekly, it would appear using IE, sometimes only 1 will show [ie. be seen] or there may even be 3qty EG’s [or more] during a particular week & one only sees 2 qty or less. Proof: The post on THIS SITE at the very top of THIS screen (above Aug.12 [re: upgrade to cellphone]) – I didn’t even “see” that question until I refreshed the screen 2 days later in Chrome – Jess’ observation said to refresh “that” screen to get add’l questions. So, with Jess’ keen observation re this unintentional “glitch” (btw speaking of glitches- @ Jessica: How can I get RB points before 8:00pm EST???), she answered my question as to why I didn’t even see that cellphone upgrade question above & couldn’t get the points. CONCLUSION: NOT CHEATING!. SUGGESTION(S): Don’t use IE & refresh your screen every day especially during EG’s – there may be points available yet unseen. There is not a week that goes by w/o EG points available.

            You are blowing things WAY out of proportion. Neither rach nor me ever-ever used the word “cheat;” that was your assumption. Was very careful the way we worded. Used “taking advantage of,” which is what happened, period. I personally never got any of these to work, and Recyclebank could and did not help. End of story.
