    I would agree to avoid surveyhead they ban you so randomly for surveys they have some sort of bizarre checking routine completly flawed thats-what-i-think i think was a sub branchvalued opinions really hot 100s from this lotPinecone really greatglobaltestmarket really goodtoluna pay 25p-50p for what others pay a £1 AVOID!
  • YourSayPays: Cashed in my £20 on December 6th and still waiting to be paid. Have emailed them several times now and only had 1 reply, which said that they had paid me but they will check again. I have told them that I can easily copy and pate my paypal transactions for them

    Anybody else having trouble being paid from them?

    I cashed out about a year ago but seem to remember it took absolutely ages to be paid.

    Clear Voice surveys, not sending surveys I can access on any computer I just get an "invalid" page. I have sent email after email...nothing.

    I'm no business genius but if you are able to access the panel and have built up a fair amount with them, I'd get it out now whilst you still can! I can understand there being an error with my computer (although it appears to be with their site rather then my computer being that I get sent to the Talktalk page telling me the page does not exist rather then a 404 or anything basic or more generic). But if emails are going unresponded to for months (I sent the first in early December) then I'd say something is going on!

    I recently received my second £50 payment from Youguv and I regularly get High st vouchers from Mysurvey(£25) and Toluna( £15).

    These are the only 3 sites that I use now as the rest were sending surveys that I was answering 15/20 questions then they screened out so I never got any credits :mad:

    I cashed out in May last year, and my £20 PayPal was received within five days, although I was advised to allow thirty days.
    :A A million thanks to everyone who posts :A

    Onepoll are rubbish- but stick with them if your close to cashback, I've got £2 to go and I'm pencilling on 2015 to cash out at this rate...

    Yougov, Pureprofile, Surveyhead (if you can be bothered to check on them everyday) and ipsos are worth looking at, if you need a referal to any of those, feel free to PM, but I don't think you will need to.

    Product tests are worth looking at too and IMO far more interesting and you get to keep the product :) Boots do procut trials and another group Clix and Buzz do product trials- I'm sure there are many others, the product trials are very hard to get on to though.
  • they are a very suspect site The dodge is you do the polls and when you are close to payout pols stop appearing or you are not suitable This happened twice to me the first time i got £39.80 and then waited 6 weeks for my next completed poll I decided to give them another chance just in case it was a problem with there system and guess what on £39.95 and no polls and dont even bother to contact them,they will not reply

    Yes, that's exactly what happened to me; I stuck with it only because I was so close and did eventually get my £40 (although I had to chase them up about it before I received the payout), but far more of the surveys now are unpaid than they used to be - and the paid ones are longer, without being worth any more - so I dropped the site after that.
