Funding Circle: Ј50 cashback for new members (summer offer!)

A question about : Funding Circle: Ј50 cashback for new members (summer offer!)

Funding Circle are giving away Ј50 cash back to any new lenders that are referred (PM if you would like me to do this) and then go on to lend Ј1000.

With rates higher than you get in the bank/building society on your deposits, this is worth a look.

PM me for a referral with your name and the email address that you intend to register with. You will need to be referred before you register in order to qualify for the cash back.

• Hi MS Convert - just saw that Funding Circle are now offering Ј500 in Virgin vouchers...not for referring friends but for investing more through them. Think it's Ј50 voucher for investing Ј5k or more and it goes up to Ј500. Better than the John Lewis vouchers or cashback I think! I could do with a free holiday right now

• Have you noticed how now the business grants etc seemed to have disappeared and its all turned into Dragons Den where everyone wants a cut of the business.....
• this has now been extended to Aug:
  Tell A Friend Offer (August 2012)
  This offer applies to all recommendations made after 5pm on 31st July 2012.
  This offer is open to all Funding Circle members with an investor account.
  To qualify the following conditions must be met:
  The referred friend ("Referred Member") must be referred between 17:00 on 31.07.12 and 17:00 on 31.08.12 (The "Referral Period").
  The Referred Member must use the same email address that you provide to Funding Circle.
  The Referred Member must transfer in and lend at least Ј1,000 to businesses (as defined by the "Qualifying Lending" amount below) between 17:00 on 31.07.12 and 23:59 on 31.10.12 (The "Offer Period").
  Qualifying Lending is defined as the amount shown as 'Lent' in the Funds Summary on the Referred Member's My Summary page in My Account. The amount lent only includes bids accepted by businesses and does not include outstanding bids in auctions. The Qualifying Lending amount can be met by bidding on loan auctions and purchasing loan parts from other investors which means the amount lent can increase instantaneously. Using Autobid does not guarantee that the funds will be lent within the Offer Period.
  The Qualifying Lending amount will be calculated within 40 days of the Referred Member meeting the qualifying conditions. If the Referred Member lends the qualifying amount and then sells their loan parts before 40 days they and you will not qualify for a reward.
  When these conditions are met both you and the Referred Member will each receive Ј40 Amazon vouchers.
  The Referred Member cannot be an existing Funding Circle member before the date that you make the referral.
  You cannot introduce yourself whether it is by setting up a new individual or business investor account (or vice-versa).
  Recommending members can qualify for multiple rewards from multiple Qualifying Referrals but Qualifying Referrals are limited to one per person, family, household address, email address, telephone number, same payment account number (e.g. debit or credit card), and shared computer, e.g. school, public library or workplace. We reserve the right to withdraw the availability of any offer or all offers to any customer or group of customers.
  If the same Referred Member is introduced by more than one Funding Circle member, the reward will be based on the first recommendation received.
  In each eligible case, the Rewards will be dispatched to both the Referral Member and you within 40 days of the qualifying conditions being met.
  The Rewards will be dispatched to the recipients' profile addresses only. You must make sure your profile section is up to date.
  As part of this offer, you warrant and undertake that you have the consent of your friend(s) to disclose their email address to Funding Circle for this purpose.
  Any person who was referred through any previous referral offers will be rewarded based on the terms for that previous offer.
  There is no cash or other alternative to this offer.
  Funding Circle reserves the right to amend, withdraw or extend any or all elements of this promotion at any time.

• There seems to be no way of getting 'a valid promotional code' from anywhere, this offer seems to be no way to get realised.
  Beside, why the offers on their website keeps changing? The offer I copied from their website only days ago, seems to be no longer available, they are not as reliable as they seems?
• I have referral for Funding circle. Just PM me. offer has shown below. regards Bruno

  Its not at all clear but I just called FC and apparently the Ј50 cashback I quoted can only be had with an eligible promotional code and apparently that is what "inserts" is referring too (you can get them in The Week, The Economist etc.) Has anyone seen one? If I can find one I'll probably close my account and reopen
