Hi I'm new and keep seeing about the power user and was wondering is it worth the £50? And is that or a year? We aren't going o get married for few years so don't want to spend out if it won't come in handy at this point.
CommentAuthorSamanthaG76
I havn't bothered, if you just build up your points and get 5 gold hearts then you'll be a power user without paying anyway :-) x

Its NOT 50 hunni??? Power user status is either 2.50 per month OR 20 pound a year..........or FREE once you get 5 gold hearts by talking and using the site! (took me 3 months but I was obsessed lol and I was the 4th EVER power user hehehe, before I became a MOD) Just to be in with a chance of winning one of the monthly prizes I say it's VERY worth it :-)

I pay the £2.50 a month, Still do actually should probably cancel that now im married lol. But yes it is worth it. Just ask some of the brides who have won things! And you can get discounts for things. However you could always just pay the £2.50 a month build up your points then when you have gold hearts just cancel your subscription as youll get it free! x

I would say that it is worth it. It helps your points build up and you get more chances of winning a prize. I pay £2.50 a month x
I paid the £20 and although not won anything yet you never know xx
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
its completely your choice i just paid the £20 for the year and i was nearly at the 5 gold hearts within the year but i didn't make it so i paid another £20 for the year and got my 5th heart 4 weeks later so its completely up to you it take me nearly a year to get the points for the hearts

I paid £2.50 per month, but only for 3 months because I was so addicted, I earned my gold hearts really quickly, so in total it cost me £7.50......peanuts.
I can resist anything but temptation
CommentAuthorMrsbayliss2B
If you have got 4 years to go i would just earn the points and within a year you should be a PU anyway :-) x I'm always tempted to pay but i wanna see if i can get there before my wedding day! x
CommentAuthorElliekitty

I pay 2.50 a month, not won anything yet. But you have to be in it to win it lol x x
CommentAuthorTatty
I aren't paying, mainly because I like talking to the other people on the site, I like asking and giving advice and the hearts are just a bonus :) Plus I have plenty of time to earn them :D x

I didn't pay, and just built up points by chatting on the forum. I joined around late 2009 and it did take a while - but if you're not getting married for 4 years, you've got time to get there (points soon add up).
CommentAuthorMrsEminson2B
i didnt pay at first but then I did pay for 4 months and then got my 5 gold hearts so cancelled the subscription I think its worth it but its up to you xx

What's the £50 thing? About portfolio and that, looked super great but can't afford the £50 :( what is power user and what's the benefits of it? X
CommentAuthorMorgsysGirl(kempy)
Your on about the wedding boxes hun thats something completly different! That UKB are thinking about doing. The power user is, you get discounts on hundereds of things and also automatically get entered into comps to win different things! x

I think as I get closer if I haven't achieved 5 stars I will but we are looking at 2015-2017 for the wedding x
CommentAuthorMrsC2bee
How many loyalty points is a star? X
CommentAuthorGlitterfairy
I done the power user. It was handy at the start when I was needing the extra bits you get, but now I don't think I will be needed to pay for the privilege.

Where's the list of what you get points for and how many points get you a star? I was looking for it the other day and couldn't find it. Xx

I paid the £2.50 a month untill i got all my gold hearts & then canceled it.
I would of however prefered to pay the £20 for a year though as it must work out cheaper, but i was skint at the time.
I havent yet won anything, but yes i would say its worth a shot just to be entered into draws etc but then again if your not getting married for a few years then maybe wait untill you have all your gold stars? xx

I think it is worth it. I paid £20 for the year which is the equivalent of about five bridal magazines. For my £20 I get all sorts of discount benefits, a chance to win a prize every month and a hundred extra entire into the annual win acwedding competition. Plus the odds of winning a prize on here are much better than the lottery and many ppl will easily spend more than £2.50 per month on them.
It's personal choice but in my opinion it is worth every penny x
CommentAuthorLauraJo87
Ooh found it now! Hopefully will get my first gold star soon.... I think I might pay just for the discounts xx
