  Thanks for the tip off r, I hadn't noticed the new posts!

  Multiple leads per computer and ip address are fine, but Clause 3 of the MBC T&C's specifically precludes using one MBC account by more than one person I'm afraid:

  "MoneyBackCo only allows one account per person and it must be used only by that person. If we find that a user is letting their account be used by multiple people or if we find a user is manipulating multiple accounts we will not hesitate to terminate the accounts in question."

  And that's really to protect the future of MBC, our margins are slim to say the least, so if one person's account is used for three or four people then we lose out and if everyone did that I don't think we'd have much of a future, additionally if merchants see multiple transactions (mainly high value leads admittedly) for the same affiliate account and network specific identity they might cry foul and remove us from their programme, and in that way everyone loses out.

  Hope you understand why we need to do this?

    If this a problem wouldn't it be a problem to use the same computer/ip with different MBC accounts?

    I'd guess I will do the rest of my family from work and other computers.

      The tracking code contains our network information which contains your member ID, if they do kick up a fuss then we can point out its a different member.

      If you're on a corporate network then many tens or hundreds of people will appear to be using the same IP address, doubt it'll be a problem but does no harm, remember to clear those cookies first!

  Also - when the HSBC offer says "Due to the nature of this offer, only one application per member will be credited", does this mean you can only create one OSA or Super Saver per account (with moneyback) or can you create both per account?

    These are regarded as separate offers, so you can open one of each.

    Hope this helps?
