Got a cheque this morning from Yougov.:T

Just 7days since I reached the magic £50 :j

It must automatically send it upon reaching £50

My balance is currently £41. The previous £50 I received was in April 2008 so not that speedy. Have noticed I don't seem to have received as many surveys lately. At one time, they were a very regular 50p or £1 reward.

Wow- am lucky if I get one a month for 50p from yougov- know I'm not the only one either- had a friend who waited for 6 months to get her final 50p so she could cash in!

Since I got a £50 cheque from yougov in August 2008, I've had 2 surveys from them!

I must be quite lucky,

but then I can go a few weeks without any then get about 6 or more in one week.

Still at the end of the day its basically free money:j

Is it me or has YouGov gone right down the pan?

They're sending emails with survey invitation that contain NO information on the survey, i.e how much it's for or if it's for prize draw, and no expiry date either.

I don't care that it's changed to points but i'd like to be able to choose whether i do the survey or not, but if i don't know if it's paid or prize draw then i just have to do it!

The biggest problem is they don't seem to understand people don't want to wait years for £50, I have earnt £65 with about £30 pending from Survey head an Im in my 7th month of joining. They separated out their surveys into Political, Heartbeat, and now they have hardly any surveys at all.
