    Just had an email from them telling me they send out vouchers on the 1st and 15th of every month and to allow 5-8 weeks for these to arrive.

    Never heard of them myself but if I had that email and could see no reward of offer I'd email the company and ask if there was any such reward or if they were just spamming for data. I don't mind doing surveys to help out here and there but if a company does it too much or expects it to easily it gets my back up!
    If its part of a "bigger picture" what is the bigger picture? (eg being in a magazine article, being a deciding factor in a new brand I may want to buy, being part of a charitable event...etc)

    Thanks for your response, jenniewb. I rang them to ask what it was about, and also how they got my email address. They said they would call back to explain, but haven't. I'll ignore it, and leave it as an unsolved mystery...
    :A A million thanks to everyone who posts :A

    I personally like GLOBALTESTMARKET and VALUED OPINIONS. Global is a bit better than VO because the surveys stay open for longer so even if I don't check in the afternoon (which is when I mostly do surveys and that's prob why I make quite a lot from them:) ) they still don't time me out in the evening. I've managed to get a cheque for around £33 every month in the last 3 months. Valued opinions are also good because I find it easy to get £10 fairly quickly.

    I'm also with newvistalive and have just finally got up to £50 (prob after a year), I thought it was never going to happen!

    Panelbase.net used to be good and I managed to get around £11 when I first joined up but rarely get surveys anymore which is a shame because they pay into your paypal.

    There's obviously a certain profile that these surveys are looking for, one in which I don't fit.

    After 20, 30, maybe more times of being kicked out after two screens, with the message "You don't fit the profile that we're looking for" with GlobalTestMarket, ValuedOpinions and others, I'm afraid I gave up.

    I got some IPSOS vouchers through the post this morning, think I ordered them middle of last month.
    It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

    GTM £30 a month? VO "Quickly"? NewVista £50 a year?? Wow! Please tell me what your profile is- I must be so far from it, I'm looking at getting your type of results after 10 years not one!
  • Hit the £40 payout with onepoll twice in the last year but my daughter would not touch youngpoll again with a bargepoll took her nine months to get £20 she checked her account very reguarly.
    Huge thumbs upfor valued opinions make roughly £30 every two months in john lewis vouchers.

    I invited a friend for valued opinions, he joined and completed his first survey.It says on the site they will credit me £2 for it, but so far I didn't get it even in pending credits. Has anyone ever got money for a friend who joined?? Thank you.
    If you feel my post has been useful, " merci" would not go amiss.
