Making cash from online survey sites - new MSE guide

It was originally Home of Research, then Elite Shopping Forum then became Rewarded Opinions, but not sure which one. I had no problem until this last time. There is a site called Survey Police, where you can find out about survey sites and many people have said on there that suddenly they cannot get their rewards and their emails are unanswered...and the phone number is now answered by someone who doesn't give the name of the company when he answers the phone!

https://forum.surveypolice.com/index.php?/topic/5236-new-panel-iwadi/ regarded a similar posting on their forum to be spam.

Caution advised!

Looking at the forgoing, isn't it time we started looking at these various survey sites and getting some things sorted out?
I have posted here before, trying to drum up support, maybe to approach Martin Lewis and get him to champion the cause. But it has before met with a resounding silence!
I am sure many of you are unhappy with the way you are treated by these sites, when you volunteer to give them information to help their businesses. But they so often treat us with a casual disregard!
Lets have a vote to get some action going.

Hi


Swagbucks doesn't pay that well for surveys when you compare to some other places. There are however loads of other ways to earn swagbucks so worth investigating the Swagbucks thread on here. I tend to do a survey on there if I am struggling to meet the daily goal, otherwise I don't really bother.

Prolific Academic is a good one that seems to pay well. I have been on there for just over a week and have £25 so far (with a few more studies waiting approval). You need to refresh the page regularly for this one as studies appear and fill up very quickly. As soon as you see one click to join and start it as soon as you can.

I tried my survey but seem to be having problems with them. Not sure if anyone else uses that one?? I joined and did a couple of surveys and then it just said my account was inactive. I have messaged them to see why but not heard anything back yet.

Last year I did Toluna but that really wasn't worth it (well not for me anyway). Seemed to take ages and ages to get enough to cash out so I got to that point and stopped.

One Poll is another one I am signed up to. Again I have been doing this one for just over a week and have about £6. You have to refresh the page several times a day to try and get surveys and they don't seem to appear that often. Also you need to get £40 before you can cash out which I think is quite high. Some people seem to like it others don't think it is worth it.

Good luck

Personally I wouldn't use swagbucks for surveys, unless they are short ones. You can earn enough to get £5 a month easily in a few mins a day from swagbucks by doing daily watch, daily poll etc, but if you are doing surveys they are generally too long for a little reward.

Panelbase.net and mintvine.com are two of my favourite ones.

If you want to do surveys via mobile, then sites like crowdology.co.uk and surveyeah.com are good, and they all use the cint app so you don't need different apps for each site. Both have a low £4 payout so really easy to get there.
