Opinion Panel

I'm not sure if this is allowed but if any of you are students attending\or planning to attend University this year you can sign up to the Opinion Panel. They send you questionnaires every now and again and you get awarded points if you complete them. Each point is worth £1 in Amazon gift vouchers and you get 10 points just for signing up (which is free). However the catch is you have to earn at least 25 points before you can cash in. Plus the questionnaires usually have a limit to the amount of people they need so once that number is reached they become expired. But it’s a good way of earning a little cash on the side.

I’ve been at it for a year now and have only earned 15 points but then again I haven’t been checking my email regularly which has meant that I have missed out on a number of questionnaires as they expired.

    I wouldn't get too excited about this, they only seem to send me surveys about once every 2 months, so it can take quite a while to get enough points for a payout

    That’s true for me too but i also think it has a lot to do with the first questionnaire they make you take when you sign up. They then send you surveys that relate to the answers you gave.
  • I signed up in the first year. I finished my final year last month and still don't have enough points to buy anything!!!! It was a kinda pointless waste of time for me to be brutally honest....

    Wow! You sure? I mean I've finsihed my first and have 15 and you only need 25 to get the voucher (although 10 of those were an incentive). Plus you can carry on your account to a graduate one I think. Just login and you should be able to upgrade. Hope this helps.

    I've been signed up to this since 2004. Moved over to the graduate panel last year and still on £22. The last survey I got was last week, the first one in over a year.
