I'm registered with Response Panel, Crowdology and Survey Exchange and it seems that they are all connected which I didn't realise. I registered with Response Panel about 3 years ago then recently signed up with Crowdology after seeing it mentioned here and then seem to have automatically be registered with Survey Exchange after the Crowdology sign up.

I sometimes get the same survey from 2 of the companies, for instance, the other day I received survey invites from Response Panel and Crowdology, I haven't tried to complete them yet but the details are the same (same amount etc) so i'm not sure if i'm allowed to complete this survey on both sites. Does anybody have experience of this with these comapnies?

I get that too many times, sometimes they do a cookies check and say "sorry you are not able to do this survey" (or words to that effect) after the main screening, other times you ge to do the entire survey all over again (woohoo) I wouldn't worry about it, as long as you are honest the problem becomes theirs not yours, just remember to take stats with a certain pinch of salt, you never really how how they got hold of their information or if itw was via 3 people answering 100 times or 300 people anwering once.

Hi, I am also a member to a number of survey sites and I have found one of my favorites to be Surveyhead. I've been a member with them for 9 months and have already cashed out £117.35. I find it to be one of my favorites!!! They do send an occasional email saying there is a survey to take though if you visit the site I find there are several I have to take on a daily basis. I hope this helps anyone interested. Being a new member it says I can't provide a link so anyone interested in it just google it.

Me too, I've been a member of Surveyhead for a few months and hardly earned anything but as soon as I realised they don't email surveys very often and I needed to check the website I got loads of surveys - I had about 8 waiting first time I checked and got accepted for 4 of them! They pay very well in comparison to Valued Opinions and Lightspeed - its not often I do a survey for less than a pound and I've had a couple in the last 30 days alone for £2.50. So, after just a month or so of checking the website I have earned £18 and am waiting for my Paypal credit.

Its taken over from Lightspeed as my favourite since their points and number of surveys have dropped dramatically in the last six months - early last year I was earning £5-10 every single month without fail, now its taking me up to two months just to get the fiver. I wonder if increased competition is affecting their business?

I'd never heard of Surveyhead before you mentioned it elliot-waters, and after googling the name I found this site:

You must have been one of the lucky ones actually to have been paid out by them as there are plenty of reviews saying payment never comes!!

The site did actually say that people had been paid okay but a few had problems - this will happen with any large survey company (or any other online business for that matter) and the answer is to chase, chase, chase! Keep on emailing/phoning/writing and the vast majority of problems will be sorted out, just to get rid of you if nothing else!

How often do Pinecone send out surveys? I joined about 2 months ago, had 1 survey straight away and then had nothing since then.

What I try to do is after I get home in the evening, I check my inbox and do all the best paid surveys first, sort of in an order, so Valued Opinions would come before Lightspeed which would come before ToLuna (if I were still doing their surveys) and so on.

That way if one company has sent the same survey through two companies, I'm hopefully more likely to pick it up and be paid the max for it rather then paid 2p by ToLuna and then denied the survey by Valued Opinons who may be offering say £1.50. Sometimes a repeat survey will be sent several days later through a different survey group though so theres only so much you can do with that.

I get a survey approximately once a fortnight. They pay very quickly via PayPal.
