E-rewards - how to get the most surveys

Options
Hi,

First up, apologies if this is posted in the wrong place.

A while back I joined the 'E-Rewards' programme as I wanted to get extra points for my BMI frequent flyer account. To start with I was sent approx 2 surveys per week but for the last month I've had none.

When you register with them you mark on a scale of one to five how interested you are in various subjects such as gardening and cooking etc. I ammended my details so that I appeared to be highly intertested in all subjects in the hope that this would mean I got sent more surveys but I think it's had the opposite effect.

Do you think if one appears ambivalent to a subject you'll get sent more rewards? Or does anyone know any tricks on how to get the most from them?

Hope my post makes sense!

Thanks in advance,

Squee

    Hmmm. So they want people to give them genuine answers to questions so they can provide valid data to those who pay them . . . meanwhile you want to pretend you're interested in everything, fill out surveys on things you're not interested in, thus giving invalid data, just to make a few quid for yourself . . . I wonder why they stopped sending you surveys . . .

    Just a thought, but if I was one of these companies and I saw someone was interested in EVERYTHING, I'd assume that as the average person doesn't have time for EVERYTHING, therefore the person in question must be pretty shallow if they're attempting to do EVERYTHING.

    apparently as already been mentioned you just tweak your profile ;) but for me it hasn`t worked

    Does anyone still have the link to the BMI e-rewards that got sent to emails? (as it has the invitation code on it.....cant sign up by just typing the e-rewards address)

    I accidently deleted mine a while back and my sister wants to sign up.......... :o
