Paypal charge you for transfer to bank if its below I think £50. I think its 25p per transaction.

They stopped charging for transfers ages ago (at least 12 months iirc) so its now free - I usually transfer £10 at a time but not sure if theres a lower limit.

givaudan are a french based company...they dont issue surveys from other companies....when I joined I was sent a long postal survey to complete first and once it was returned to them I started to get email invites...
this is the email address all my surveys come from
[EMAIL="argenteuil.panelconsumer@givaudan.com"]argenteuil.panelconsumer@givaudan.com[/EMAIL]
they are not that frequent but offer a few good trials a year and also reward well with capital bonds vouchers.

hello all,

i was hoping someone could help me with givaudan, now it's been awhile but i was fairly certain once you completed 5 of their surveys they automatically sent a capital bond. however, i've completed far beyond that since my last one and still haven't received any rewards for doing them. have they changed the system?

i can't find a page for them so i can check my account. they def have my proper address as the last bond i received came here and i've had several trial products but no more vouchers

if anyone could help me out i'd appreciate it, i'm not sure where to turn to try and sort this out.

Can anyone please refer me to Givaudan? I'd love to try them out.

Tickbox is worth it as a year ago I won a netbook and this year I won £600 of Amazon vouchers from them. Fantastic.

Hi, I had a similar problem a little while ago, waiting for my £5 Capital Bonds voucher because I knew I'd completed more than 5 surveys. I sent them an email, and they replied telling me that because some of my surveys had been done in 2010 they no longer counted towards my total. Apparently they wipe the slate clean at the end of each year, so if you'd done 4 in 2010 (as I had), then they don't count towards this year's Capital Bonds.

I would send them an email to check what your situation is. They always reply, even if it takes a few days. Hope that helps.

Anyone else only receive £3 in vouchers from Pinecone research for a recent survey? They have always paid £4 and todays compensation came as a bit of a surprise? Thanks!

I had the same problem and emailed them about it. I got this reply

Thank you for your email. I apologise about the mistake with your compensation. A new set of £3 will be sent tomorrow to compensate for the extra £1 missing on the first place.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Can't fault them- great service :j

I too got that reply. Brilliant !! If only all survey sites were this efficient !! :j

Has anyone ever had their £30 paid to them from Springboard UK? I'm currently on £29 odd ( which has taken ages) and they wanted my son to complete a survey last week for a reward of £2.50 but this amount hasn't been added. I emailed Springboard and strangely I had a reply last night at about 9pm very quickly back telling me to check my History Participation which I'd already done. I've since emailed them twice and had zero response. So I'm now thinking is this a CON:(

Yes, I received £30 by Paypal in March. I can't remember how long I waited to receive it after claiming, but it was within their payment terms.
