SpringBoard has paid the £30 into my paypal. Took the 6 weeks. But it has arrived so I am happy. A good sign for a new survey site.

How on earth did you manage to get to £30? I've been a member best part of a year and I've only managed £3.50 so far.

Is anyone else having problems checking their earnings when signed in to New Vista? I keep getting an error message when I try to look at the details of surveys to check whether points have been awarded.

Well I am up to £16.50 but that has taken nearly 2 years.

I do try to do their surveys as soon as they arrive as they are usually short and interesting but would be better to see the cash mount up quicker.

Hi - I've just checked, and am getting the error message too.

I have just tried the site and can log in to see my earnings without any problem.

I have recently been getting surey invites from a survey site - which I am sure I never signed up for - called Populus.
Their surveys are identical in format to the Newvista ones - same way of putting your birth date in and same question about how many motorised vehicles you have in your home. They also pay one point for a five minute survey and you need to reach 50 points to redeem £50.
I was wondering is this is a spin off from Newvista which would enable them to spread out their surveys so that it takes longer to reach 50 points on either site.
Has anyone else been getting surveys from Populus?

I've also done a few surveys for Populus, and agree they are very similar to New Vista.

Not sure whether the two companies are affiliated though.

Most of mine was the 50p (daily surveys) Ok not daily but monthly and pay to the first 2000 people. Just been lucky I guess. Make sure your profile surveys are up to date as well.

Is anyone having a problme with Ipsos at the moment, the last three surveys i have done for them have not been credited and upon emailing i have just got a standard reply saying not all surveys get credited straight away, i was under the impression that Ipsos did. I have completed a mammoth 45 minute survey earlier and no sign of these points either!

I think i did that one was it for 400 points( Healthcare) i e mailed them and they said there was a problem with that particular survey they do know about it and points will be credited soon so i guess we will just have to wait and see

I do surveys for Populus as well as Newvista. I seem to remember being invited to join them some time ago. I find that I do not get as many points from them as Newvista - far more prize draws.
