I only spend about 30 mins a day on average doing surveys. I last claimed just before Christmas on MySurveys and Ipsos and today claimed £15 and £10 respectively, plus £10 claimed for Valued Opinions (first ever claim).

I do work from home and my job is Internet based, so if I'm online and not too busy I will dive straight in on a survey. That does help.
Previously I've put the rewards towards something lasting. I have a really nice watch and some kitchen equipment which I probably wouldn't have bought otherwise.

Yes, I spend pretty much the same time per day on surveys myself and manage to do quite well out of them. Like you, I'm sat in front of the computer all day, which does help!

Hi Dragonfly, thanks for replying, i know what your referring too, but this is different. Your on about when a small % of surveys dont pend, but will show up 30-45 days later.

What im experiencing is nothing pending at all, however they are now showing up 24 hours later, but just wondering if anyone else is having this issue.

I've just completed a survey for HI-epanel, who I've been with for a few years. I had 94 points with them, didn't qualify to the survey so only got 2 points which they said were added to my total. When I went to check it said I only had 2 points ???? Where have my other points gone??:mad: I have emailed them about this as I am so close to getting my 100 points needed for the Amazon voucher.

Has anyone had this happen to them recently? I really hope I haven't lost all my points, being so close to cashing out.


ETA: I've just had an email from them saying I'd cashed it in in November . I checked back on my emails but couldn't find it, then I checked the code they resent with Amazon and I had . I really cannot remember doing this, but at least they're not lost

I am (both Harris and HI-epanel), but when I try to log in to HI-epanel I have to fill in all these fields (name, address, marital status etc). When I fill them in I just get an error message and can't log in. I've e-mailed them a couple of times but not got a reply. Can anyone help? Has this happened to anyone else on here?
Edit: It's now telling me my entries are not sufficient and there's a problem with one or more of them, but it won't say which one.
Edit again: I managed to log in, but the side panel only has an option to logout, and it doesn't say how many points I have.
Final edit: My page is now back to normal.

Just try one of the sign up links here (a referral won't give you any more chance than the links here): http://mysurvey123.com/index.php/Paid-Surveys-Reviews/Pinecone-Research.html

Unless you're extremely lucky you'll get rejected, try every few weeks and you'll eventually get in (that's how I got in, took a few months though). As to whether they're worth the effort or not, they're by far the lowest payer of all the sites I'm on so bear that in mind when considering the effort needed to maybe get accepted.

Can both you and your partner sign up at these survey sites?

Usually they're one per IP address to prevent fraudulent use so no, I don't think so.

for some sites like pinecone, no, if you live at the same address, they specify they don't accept applications from the same household. You would need to check the T&C.

My OH and I do most sites jointly, we always check the T&Cs first so not breaking any rules.

Off the top of my head we both do:
Toluna
Panelbase
Pureprofile
Harris Poll Online
Maximiles
Valued Opinions
Yougov
Onepoll
Just The Answer
MySurvey
New Vista Live

I do Global Test Surveys and Pinecone on my own as they're one account per household.

We also do Ipsos, which only allows one account per household but asks for details of all household members, so both my OH and get sent our own surveys but the emails all come to me.
