    Get loads of emails from them and done one group for £60 (& very quickly got a cheque), but you have to be quick, as it's first-come-first-served. Be sure to read the criteria carefully as they've said they won't use people if they think they're messing them about.

    Mostly within M25, though sometimes looking for Bristol, Manchester, etc.
    Worker in, and passionate advocate of, the credit union movement. I don't speak for the sector or for any individual CU. My opinions & experiences are my own.

    Search MSE for more info about CUs and find ones that cover your area by searching online for 'find your credit union'.

    they have alot of focus groups but think you can only do one every 3 months. I get at least 2-3 emails a week from them but I am not always eligible for all of them.

    I used to do them in London but never find them North of the border; eg Liverpool, Chester, Manchester areas. Does anyone know who does these areas?

    as stated, most groups take place in London. However google Talking Shop and Aspect Research for research in Manchester

    I attended a focus group in Leeds 4 years ago when I first signed up with some of the above companies. Didn't hear anything off them after that, but weirdly enough applied for 1 last week, and I shall be going to one on Thursday. Woohoo.

    2013: £35 and £50 vouchers from SurveyFriends! More than £15 made from other paid surveys sites (Yougov, Panel Opinion, Valued Opinions, Pinecone, etc.) Happy so far!
