Ipsos/Acop/Home of Research - Are they worth it?

Options
Hi guys,

Recently I found a link on here to all kinds of funky survey sites. I being the greedy boy that I am, decided to join up to most of them. However, I have heard nothing back from the above 3. I have been with them all a month. Are they worth it? Should I persevere? Or should I just cancel them all? Any advice? Thanks in advance.

    I didn't hear anything for a while, and then I got a few surveys in a row. Still am nowhere near the target for a payout though

    ipsos are great, I get loads of surveys from them and have made about £50 this year from them! maybe you just dont fit the profile for their current surveys, I would persevere with them

    I'd agree with jennet1 - ipsos are great, I've had quite a bit through them. Tends to be months with loads of surveys and some with hardly any.
    Only recently joined home of research but don't think much of them.
  • I use ipsos and HOR i dont get a lot of money from the latter has been about year and only on about £10 but ipsos i have had lots from and should have another £10 after i complete the survey they just sent me .

    I love Ipsos! I've been getting regular Boots vouchers from them for some time now. Don't know about the other two though sorry.

  • Ipsos are brilliant, I've had £62 in vouchers from them since February, and still have points to be credited. I've been with Home of Research for ages though, and have yet to make the minimum payout level.

    Been a member of the following surveys for almost 10 months and received the following:
    Ipsos - £50
    Valued Opinions - £40 and £5.55 to redeem
    Lighting Speed - £30 one survey away from another £5
    Ciao - £11.46
    YouGov - £21.00 – only pay out at £50
    Juicy Brains - £13.25
    Global Test Market - £26.50 + 2/3 toward my next £26.50
    Test and Vote - 2/3 towards my fist voucher of £12

    I found that at times it can be very slow and then all of a sudden you will have a batch come through. My surveys have also slowed down ever since circumstances have changed (i.e. Child born). Probably as I now fall into a different category just when i need more.

    Ipsos are the best especially if you are a couple as they send surveys to both of you under one account.
    Valued Opinions is also very good and seem to come in batches
    Lighting speed is good if you have paypal as you can redeem quickly.

    I am awaiting for £60 :j of this money in Boots and Tesco vouchers so hopefully it will arrive soon. Can help pay for xmas presents
