I think Opinion World are TNS, and they usually reward surveys with points which go towards your Nectar account. Not sure whether you can also opt for Amazon vouchers.

Opinionworld is not TNS. It's Survey sampling International. Why their payments are credited from SSI sampling. They pay either via paypal or "charity payments". You just have to be watchful for the paid ones usually mentioning it in the topic "1£ for you opinion or sometimes mentioned only in the message text". I've found they been doing this more so should be easier to spot. Tns is responsible for uk.mysurvey.com

Im not sure if I am a member of IPSOS or not. I am a member of many survey sites and I think I have been directed to IPSOS with CIAO Surveys but I am not sure if i am a member. How do i become a member if I am not already one?

In my opinion, "opinion world" do not pay. I had one survey that paid from them when I very first had joined them, then nothing. I used to get several surveys for them a day, and all had a stupidly long way to get entries into a "prize draw" and anything else went to charity.

I left them and spent my energy on places that do pay! Other people have noted cash surveys from O.W but I would love to know how many- besides the initial one, I never saw any and I was with them for a good few years!

Jennie I've had maybe 6 or 7 paying surveys from OW in about 4 years that I've qualified for, but it'll be interesting to see what happens with this new payment system.

Its via referal link only and places like ipoints and ciao and other survey or cashback sites are the best place to look to join.

Hi guys, I currently have a Onepoll account I've had for around a year and have just over £30 on it, seeing as I can withdraw money at £40, I think I will and it won't be long now. BUT - my brother advised me a while back that it wasn't legal to withdraw on these survey sites? He said I had to sign some document or I could be fined over £100?
I don't know if he was misinformed or what? But seeing as I'd put it into Paypal, surely I can't get fined for it?

**tinks**

hello,

I'm after a bit of advice please. I have taken part in every IPSOS survey i have been able to and obviously collecting the points for doing so. I have now received an e-mail from IPSOS saying as i haven't accessed the site in such a long time they will be taking all my points off me. obviously i am not too happy about this and was wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Would it be worth e-mailing someone about this???

TIA
