**Discontinuation of the Canadian eBay Anything Points program*** 

06 March, 2006 | 16:10

We have decided to discontinue the eBay Anything Points program on the Canadian eBay site (www.ebay.ca). This decision was made after receiving input from Canadian members and evaluating the benefit to the Community. We believe this decision will allow us to devote our energy to making eBay Canada an even greater marketplace for our buyers and sellers. As you may know, this program has already been discontinued in the U.S.

The process of transitioning certain features and functionality related to the eBay Anything Points program will begin immediately and continue over the next few months. Members will have until May 31, 2006 to earn eBay Anything Points, and can redeem Points until November 30, 2006. All Points that have not been used by November 30, 2006 will become invalid. If you have not yet signed up for an eBay Anything Points account, click here to do so.

MBNA will replace your eBay Credit Card with a non-eBay credit card upon expiration of your card, or June 30, 2006 (whichever comes first). For more information about your eBay Anything Points credit card, please contact MBNA at 1-888-876-6262.

For more information regarding the phase-out of the eBay Anything Points program, please see the Anything Points home page at http://pages.ebay.ca/anythingpoints/index.html.

eBay Anything Points must be used in conjunction with a valid PayPal account and in accordance with the eBay Anything Points Loyalty Program Terms and Conditions available at http://pages.ebay.ca/anythingpoints/terms/index.html.
