    I did one that offered £15 recently, but the money never appeared in my account. They never answer questions or respond to anything, so little point chasing it.
  • I did one a few months ago that paid £30. The focus group was all about the media and was well run. There were about 8 people online in the group. I received a cheque for £30 about 2 weeks after no problems. Easy money for 2 hours work and I enjoyed it.

    Wish I'd been invited to this one. Was it after filling in a survey or just a random invite?

    I've now had invites to two well-paid online focus groups, but haven't actually done them as they don't give me the link for them??!!! :confused: I've done the qualifying surveys, been told I qualify, and then nothing???

    How is this supposed to work? I've emailed them to ask but have had to response. :mad:

    I didn't realise You Gov did focus groups despite me answering their surveys for about a year. Do you have to sign up for their focus groups?

  • :mad:I wouldn't worry about not being invited to YouGov forums. A friend of mine did one and is still chasing his £15 months later. YouGov don't reply to his emails and have been ignorant.

    I am also trying to get them to tell me why my log in details for my account don't work any more. Have emailed several times and nothing.

    I've also heard of them shutting other people's accounts even when like me they have done tonnes of surveys.
