    Their rewards would be posted to anywhere - I claimed several from the old catalogue, although the majority could be bought from anywhere and weren't worth anything like as much as the globogift certs were.

    Well if its any help, with HI, I tried to leave- and the wrote to me !! I got a letter through saying I had £4.90 in my account and recommended I rejoin them to carry on.!! (n/b, they were not giving me £4.90, that was already there). I rarely get any surveys from them, get irritating "sweepstakes" emails about spending all my points on a gamble to get more. (I just ignore those, gambling never helped anyone I know), so I'll carry on with them, no harm in it.

    Try to leave- see if it happens to you too!

    Well this weeks been very good so far.

    I recieved another £1 from OW, and i'm awaiting at least £9 from surveys completed since 20/4(won't get these until june at earliest) and got my 2nd £3 from pinecone.

    I'm also expecting my first payout of $11 from palmresearch, and am already up to $21.50 on that site.

    Also been able to boost my toluna points by 5000 so far this month, thanks in most to all the polls they have on their site.

    OK Everyone!

    Thought this needed to be mentioned again, sorry, I know its been said over and over again, but there may be people who don't know:

    People who do Pinecone surveys CANNOT refer others, they used to be able to, but cannot do so any more. Pinecone stopped it.

    Pinecone get new members according to Pinecone via odd banners which are apparently very cryptic (not seen one myself but then have an autopiolet feature to ignore all adds, features and junk, so any banners would be wasted on me). But this is how you join, not on here, sorry!

    I have also been blocked by valued opinions,despite answering all their surveys honestly,tried contacting them,but they will not give me an explanation,i have also heard someone else has had this problem, seems they are getting people to do their surveys,and not letting people cash in for the vouchers,anyone else having problems ?

    I've had quite a few surveys from Valued Opinions and received their vouchers. No problem there.

    I've recieved 2 emails in the past 3 months that would disprove that, including an email i got just 4 days ago, asking me if i knew of any households that would like to become members, so as much as it not being a referral and more of an invite(which has always been the case with pinecone), they are still asking current members to invite others.
