    Is it worth it? Considering the amount of time you have to spend? I'll try Yougov

    As others have said, a question only you can answer. I reckon I make somewhere between 40-50 per month from survey sites and therefore I would class that as worth it - in the main I quite enjoy doing them. Its helps that Im quite opinionated!!

    However, as I have just acquired a new job with a big pay hike, I might find in a few months I dont need it quite so much (I would go back to Matched Betting, which pays vastly higher and is more fun)

    I had always bad experience with surveys that is why I do not recommend this to anyone.

    I love Mintvine, quick easy surveys and other ways to build points such as watching videos, I'm cashing out sometimes twice a week in Amazon Vouchers which should cover the fairly big ticket items my daughter would like for Christmas. By far my favourite site, closely followed by E-Rewards which I make at least £10 in nectar points with.
    I would avoid Toluna and My survey but Valued Opinions (sister site to E-Rewards) is good as is Panelbase.

    So is MintVine basically another Swagbucks? Cashing out twice a week sounds good - do you work full time alongside that?

    Very similar to Swagbucks. I work from home and have a lot of 'down' times, where I do';t have any real tasks to do so that's when I hit the surveys.
    Mintvine has a daily poll which takes seconds for 5 points, when you have done (is it 10 or 25? I forget) that's a pollstreak and you get bonus points. The surveys can be very quick and the more you do the more you seem to get.

    When you earn points they 'pend' for a few days while being approved and you cash out at a 1000 points for whatever you want (paypal, tesco, Amazon and more) I choose Amazon and apply the giftcard to my Amz account straightaway like a savings account. I cashed out another 1000 points last night and still have 2489 pending which will clear by the end of the week. They also have 'offers' so there are surveys for immediate points (poll Q's are instant too) and you normally get points even if you get DQ'd.

    Customer service is also excellent.
    Took a while to get to know the site but now I love it

    Signed up to Mintvine this morning, just been offered a 24 minute survey for a reward of 30p. It will take me several hours to earn 1000 points.....

    No, honestly, once you get 'into' the site and really get going you'll be surprised. Go to ad-Wall to, you'll see more surveys for instant points (60p/75p)

    I just did a 3 minute survey for 200 points! These are the ones I love, once you start to get the high paying surveys you often get 30 points if you get DQ'd so win-win.

    Is a point worth 1p?
