Completing Online Surveys - Any Experiences?

Hi All,
Just wanting your views please on signing up for and completing online surveys. I'm always on the look out for earning a bit of extra cash and this seems a fairly easy way to do it!
I've signed up with YouGov, Pure Profiles and Valued Opinions, and whilst I've had some surveys from YouGov, I've yet to hear from the other two. Does anyone have any experiences of these? Are they any good?
Also, does anyone have any other online survey companies they could recommend? Or indeed any other ways I could earn a bit of cash through my computer?! :cool:

I also signed up to Pure profile but I did get one survey last week and earned a shiny £1 coin! Only 49 more until I can cash it

I haven't really found any that are that good they all seem to have high cash out values to keep you with them for as long as possible.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 0650 -
The best one, although i havent had much from them recently has to be pinecone research. £4 luncheon vouchers for 5 mins survey. I believe that were not menat to mention them on here but not sure why
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
Hi, I signed up to Valued Opinions and had no problems so far. I usually received 3-4 surveys in a month. No problems with payment either, they even email you when you have enough money in your account for a voucher. You can get £5 for plenty of high street retailer but you need £10 for Tesco voucher.unneccesary spend challege £10 this week £4 petrol for day out0

I've signed up with loads but don't think you can make lots of money out of it. some only enter you into a prize draw and i've only won a couple of times - still a win is a win i guess.0

I like yougov and they payout £50 but it does take a while to get it.Barclaycard 3800

For student or recent graduates "the student panel" or "the graduate panel" are quite good, they're the same company so once you're with one you move to the other (when you graduate obviously!). I'm with yougov too but it will take ages to get the required £50 to cash in!
Have you looked at pigsback.com ? Points on there can mount up really quickly and the range of vouchers is quite good. I haven't been with them long and have £9 in points, which I think I will exchange for a cdwow voucher when I have enough. Read here for info about the site and tips on how to get the maximum possible points.Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs. Except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for now... Avenue QOfficial DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 003

I'm a member of Ciao, which I think is https://www.ciao.co.uk (that's not an affiliate link, by the way). You get paid for either leaving reviews on things or for doing surveys. You get paid about £1.35 per survey and can request payment after you've made £5. I probably get sent about 1 every 1 or 2 weeks, but they can sometimes take a bit of time.
Hope that helps!www.onegirloneyear.co.uk0 -
I do valued opinions surveys and have had a few vouchers, usually get a survey every couple of weeks or so.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 027

YouGov is the only one I bother with. I tried lots of others but was always not suitable or some such. I had a cheque from YouGov the other day for £50. It has taken since I signed up in July 2004 to get to this point, so you wouldn't make a living out of it!
I thoroughly enjoy being able to make my opinion known ( :eek: ) and the cheque was great. :T:snow_grin"Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow........":snow_grin0 -
There is someone on here who actually has a website which tells you all about the sites you can join.I think her name is Rachel. I joined quite a few of the ones she mentioned.Even if I don't earn much it will all add up eventually and I quite enjoy doing them.valuedopinions is the only one I've actually had anything from yet, but the others are slowly adding up...0
