    I think you have to look out for their banners. I can't remember how I got on. Found a link somewhere I think. ** Anyway, I am getting bogged down with surveys. I am getting them left, right and centre, and don't have enough time to do them. Have had about 6 from Global Test Market, 5 from Valued Opinions, 4 from Ipsos, 1 from Pinecone and all this week. Help!

    I find all the raving about Pinecone a bit odd - I don't even bother to complete their surveys now. All they have ever sent me is luncheon vouchers, which aren't a great deal of use to me. Perhaps someone could tell me what I'm missing?

    You can get it changed and have your £4 put into a paypal account. That's what I do, so if I want to get anything on ebay I'm sorted, or if I want to get it transferred over to my bank (under £50 you get a charge of 25) I'm sorted.

    Although you have to complete one or two surveys in order to qualify for that.

    I haven't worked out how to join IPSOS......:confused:

    Does someone need to refer me? :o
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".

    I use my vouchers for money off my Tesco shopping. I think you can use them at most supermarkets for your ordinary shop.
    I am getting £12 worth of vouchers each month so it really helps.

    If you don't want luncheon vouchers, you can always opt for PayPal. I do it that way.

    while you do need a invite to pinecone which sadly I dont have you dont need an invite to Ipsos just go along to a cashback site you can join Ipsos there and earn some cash for your efforts
  • Im a member of valued opinions and lightspeed. Ive done some surveys for the latter and am baffled as to how to redeem the points. It says on the site to go to your lightspeed account and click the 'Go' button but i cant find it anywhere. Has anyone else had any trouble?

    Sorry to hijack your thread, but has anyone had any surveys from IPSOS lately? I used to get LOADS but haven't had any for months. I wouldn't care but I'm only a few points away from being able to claim a £10.00 voucher... Hmmm!
