  • Just one other point in relation to my last post about onepoll I decided to test them out and see if there are any polls avalable so i created another account in a diffirent name to see what happens and guess what tere are lots of polls avalable It seems they are not avalable to you if you are just about to reach payout It may not be fraud but it is very close:mad:
  • Has anybody faced any delays in getting the vouchers from Toluna?? I have redeemed £15 Amazon voucher in first week of November and it's now end of Jan, that's around 11 weeks but still no voucher...

    Every time I contact them, the only response I get is a scripted reply... "sorry for delay in getting it over and as we order in a batch.. it is taking some time.. but we will let you know as soon as possible"

    And when I asked exact date when would I get... again same reply with the last line being "as soon as possible".

    Toluna is always late in awarding points, but this time in giving voucher as well...

    Has anybody else faced this type of issue lately with Toluna??

    Re: Toluna, there's a post about the delay on their blog from Jan.3:
    Dear Members,
    We would like to apologise for your recent requested Amazon vouchers.
    Any redeemed Amazon vouchers from November are still being processed, due to a delay we are facing.
    We understand that this isn’t ideal, however, we are making this issue a priority and are currently working on sending out your vouchers, which you will receive as soon as possible!
    We hope you had a great Christmas and New Year and will see you soon for more surveys!
    The Toluna Team

    I seem to recall they had similar delays around the start of last year, everything arrived eventually though.

    Ive started getting loads of surveys from a company called Vindale...I dont remember signing up to them and wonder if they have merged with someone else....loads of surveys,maybe 10 invites a day,mostly screen out but they do suggest that payment is made after $10...im currently $2.67!....anyone got any experience with this company?

  • vnkotak, I've just contacted Toluna too as I'm waiting for Amazon vouchers from 13th Nov and 29th Nov. I'll probably get exactly the same standard reply as you, but just thought I'd let you know you weren't the only one in this position!

    And thanks Olliebean for the quote from their blog - at least I know it isn't anything I've done!

    I cashed out in May last year, and my £20 PayPal was received within five days, although I was advised to allow thirty days.


    I have cashed out a few times with this company and they do pay with in the 30 days mark.

    However, this time was a complete joke. After numerous emails they finally replied and said that I had gave them the wrong email address to send the paypal money to. Lies!!

    I'm also waiting for Amazon vouchers from Toluna - since November - and had the same standard reply. I cannot understand what the problem is, they are electronic vouchers not paper ones that have to be posted. I had actually hoped when I cashed out and got an email that said 4-6 weeks that they might have improved their speed as last time they said 8 weeks - but no, its now well over 8 weeks never mind 6. Getting really fed up with them but its one of the panels I earn the most with :(

    Not that I know of - and I belong to about 20 different panels. I've never heard of those gift cards, sorry :(
