They pay £2 for registering and £5 for sharing health info. However, when i filled in my details, i ended up with a page saying they…

I have been doing Pinecone surveys for a few years. Recently they had an upgrade. Original reward was 300 points = £3 and it took about 5-10 mins and you 99% of the time got they survey guaranteed till the end Now reduced points, screened out after few questions and lots more glitches. Plus having to complete lots of…

Okay, here is a good question and one I am keen to be answered. I lost my job last year, partly due to Covid, and, because of my age I have decided on semi-retirement. So I need to make money online. Now, believe me, I have lost count of the number of websites and YouTube videos I have checked over the past six months. I…

Hi, I have been matched betting for over a year and have made a good few thousand pound. I'm wondering what next, has anyone got anything else to move onto?

Hello, I recently signed up to a website called Outlier AI as I am looking to earn some extra money working from home around my main job and I was wondering if any other MSE Forumite had/has any experiences with them? They're a US-based company where you are a freelancer and get "missions" (or projects) to help train an AI…

I've been following X Money closely, and it looks like it's now rolling out in the US. There seems to be a lot of interest, with many people trying to secure early access. What caught my attention most are the reports that eligible users in the current rollout may have access to features such as around 6% APY on qualifying…

Any sugestions for places to sell old unused cloths? Theres one of those booths in the local Tesco car park but they pay only 40p per kilo. I have quite a lot of stuff in good condition and several items completely unworn with original price tags still attached. I suppose I could go down the Ebay route but that seems too…

I am a member of TRP Surveys and we always get 2 Surveys each week for credits and i have been doing them for the last 3 weeks. The problem is i have not been getting any credits and on the weekly credit email i have had the same total of credits for the last 3 weeks even with me doing the 2 surveys they send out each…

Hi. It's possible to earn reward points for doing bing searches and mini quiz questions etc. But I've never been able to actually get a rakuten code. It lets me go through the redeem process but then it says there's been a problem. When I email customer services, they say they UK codes are out of stock. This seems like a…

Has anyone compared the returns from these two shopping scanning schemes? I've been a Nielsen scanner for several years and while the rewards are good they do seem to take quite a long time to accumulate. I was wondering how ShopAndScan compared?

I have 3 currently, Cashwalk, Macadam, and Winwalk. I used to love cashwalk and made 200 coins from steps plus extra from challenges but app updated and now it's rubbish. Winwalk and Macadam pays less but you can make a bit from playing games and surveys. Are there other apps primarily for steps for coins that are worth…

I've just gone to my Power of Opinions survey site and it's saying that they have now closed and everything was deleted on the 1st May 2026. I didn't receive any emails from them. Did anyone else? Surely I should have been notified?

Hi all. I'm looking to self-publish my first novel using KDP and I understand that you can use their free version of an ISBN but that will only allow you to sell on Amazon or you can buy your own ISBNs which means that you can sell anywhere but they're expensive to buy. I'm hoping that someone can help me understand which…

Hi all. I'm getting close to the stage where I want to upload my novel to KDP in oredr to self-publish it but having trawled through endless YouTube videos, it seems such a minefield. I want to have it so that it can be bought for an e-reader and in paperback. I think I've got my head around the paperback side of things in…

Hi, A few years ago mined eth, using my 2 PCs. Both had decent graphics cards and I made about £80pm after expenses and it kept the house warm. Is there anything similar I can do now? Thank you

Anyone else having this issue? Pinecone used to be the best of the survey companies, but recently they are refusing to pay up. My last two surveys, I have spent 15-20 minutes each answering detailed questions on multiple products per survey. I have reached the end of the survey, and a thank you for participating screen,…

Hi, want to put it out to see if this is a general issue.I am near the 5k points and since end April 25 not had any surveys to get me to the magic 5000 so I can cash in. Seems to recall many moons ago the same thing happened. Takes too long to even get close but now I'm cynical thinking they are doing this on purpose. They…
