are these survey sites worth it?(merged)

I cashed in ages ago also. plus the site screens out more often and also takes about 30 mins to do a 5 min survey these days.. i dont see what was wrong with the old site tbh

Exactly, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! (Or in their case they haven't fixed it, they've broken it!)

I just managed to get a survey and it asked 'do you agree with any of the following statements': 'it's dangerous/when it goes wrong it causes disasters' etc. Yet it didn't say what is supposed to be dangerous..... I guessed it was nuclear power (which it turned out to be) but there was no mention of this on the first page!

I've never known such a disorganised survey company. Some of the questions don't have relevant answers either. For example: what does your partner think about.....? I don't have a partner so I click n/a and the next question will still ask what my partner thinks about something else when there is no option to say 'not applicable.' I think they need new staff. As soon as I reach £40, I'm leaving them.

the new site works better than the old one for me -- I'm using IE8 -- but I did get a survey that went up to 115 per cent! And the questions are still ridiculous.

I did that survey earlier too, i thought it was just me being stupid!

Im finding the same problem too. You can't log in to the iPhone app either. Hopefully they will fix it all soon, its getting really annoying to do surveys now

I've contacted them about this as I can't log on to the app from my ipod touch. I'll let you know if I here anything. I logged to the website and got 5 surveys to do.

Quick payers though.(take note VO)

I have just tried and i too get thrown out of surveys before they are finished. I have £16.xx in my account and i can not seem to get it to increase as I have not been getting past the first question of the survey - will take me ages to get to £40 payout threshold!

Yeah, I get screened out of most of them now too - or they just don't work! Gah! :mad:

I suppose it stops a lot of cheating.
