Thanks martyn and davester that's good to know, I saw someone asking this on Facebook a while ago and the guy never got a reply. I'll just have to wait and see.

you have to click the date part of the history sometimes it doesnt order it correctly. I think I have to click it twice so that most recent appears at the top.

With regards to Springboard I hit the £30 amount a few days ago and hit the "Redeem Now" button but low and behold it's not working it actually says " The study you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience . Please try later" What study? I've been trying to get money that's taken me years to achieve, then I get this. I've emailed them twice ZERO response.:(

Quite a few seem to be receiving an email invite from them including myself, thread here:

Nobody seems to know much about them so far, I guess they are new.

Hi, luckylouise08, a belated reply. The survey sites I like are:
Crowdology - pay pennies, between about 30p and if you're lucky, up to £2.50. PayPal payout at £4 (PP take 2% handling fee). I got to my first payout quite quickly and am working toward the second.
Lightspeed - I've had quite a few payouts from them, only small amounts, but you can get £3 PayPal for 345 points, or vouchers for Amazon, Boots, Sainsburys for more.
Surveyhead (US version) - I get about one survey a day for 47p (75 cents), but sometimes one comes along at up to £1.90. You can claim PayPal once you've reached $25 - you get the sterling equivalent. I've had one payout - it took weeks and weeks to arrive, but got here in the end - have just requested another, and am on my way to the next.
Valued Opinions - surveys pay between 50p and £2 or thereabouts, and you can claim when you've reached £10 - Boots, Tesco, Amazon. Again, I've had a few vouchers and am halfway to the next.

It's all small amounts, and I tend to claim as soon as I reach the payout level, but hey, it all helps.

I'd love to know what you think of planet panel, the origin panel and gfk - I'm always looking for new sites.

Hope this helps.

Planet panel - Won in one prize draw so far got $50, only use this panel if you feel lucky to win prize draws as you do not get any other kind of reward and if you do not win in a prize draw, your giving your opinions for free.

The origin panel - same as planet panel, if you like prize draws (and i won £10 with them) stick with it, if you do not feel too lucky, your giving your opinion for free without potentially winning any reward.

These 2 panels may introduce new rewards in the future like cash, paypal, cheque, vouchers but at the moment they do not. Most survey sites do start to introduce more rewards as members start to feed back that they would like more payment options or reward options.

GFK - one of the best panels i use, usually win in the prize draws over 50% of the time i estimate! you get a large variety of voucher choices and they post to you very quickly your rewards once you order them. I would definately recommend GFK it almost guarantees you winning a prize as they put lots of little prizes on the site for many people to win as opposed to one person winning a massive £25,000 or something silly like that, when your more likely to get all the numbers on the lottery than win.

Hope this honest feedback of my own opinion helps you.

I'm really considering starting up this for a bit of extra cash over summer, before i head to university. So far i only use crowdology and only get a few pounds per month, so i was wondering, is it a good idea to only use a few survey sites, or use alot?
