I do mystery shopping from the comfort of my computer chair. This company will list "invites" and how much you get paid for each one. You pick the ones you want and they go into your "pending" list. You get sent an email when the job is up and running.
The simplest jobs entail logging onto a specific website and searching for items to buy (for instance Kays catalogue). You also have to send an email and telephone customer services then you answer specific questions in the survey that has been emailed to you. A basic website survey pays £3.50-£4 and you will often have the option to buy an item (typically a £6 fee) and return it for a refund (typically a £5 fee) so you could earn £15 or more per job. Obviously the better you are at giving your opinion of the site, the more jobs you will get.
You do have to wait for them to send you a contract to sign before you can start, but this is by far the best kind of mystery shopping job.

Did you actually visit the site periodically and select "invites"? They do occasionally email me and ask me to do jobs but the most money I make is by actually selecting jobs myself then being available to complete them within the time scales required.
I have been doing it for a long time and I have been commended for the quality of my work, so I suppose, the more experienced you are at it, the more work you get. You have to persevere and, I should add, it helps if your grammar and punctuation are correct and your comments detailed.0 -

Hi I joined this ages ago but forgot about it. My details are still registered but can't find a place to login and check the invites. Is it a different web page? Thanks in advance.0 -
You get your own login details once you join. The link I gave gives access to "contact". I would email them your details and ask them to send you the link to your login page.0

Hi all,
Further to my suggestion in the Siteback Feedback forum, I am wanting to compile a list of companies that are good to work for, along with a little explanation what each one does and what the possible earnings are. This can be survey sites, mystery shopping, anything where you can earn money, working from home to maybe having to go out and earn a bit etc. (Please remember it is not acceptable for people to promote sites/opportunities in their own interest - including the network marketing schemes and requests to "PM for further information").
A few people have mentioned they would like something like this, and what I'm really needing is for people to either reply to this thread and I will copy and paste to what will hopefully become a sticky, or simply PM me and I can add the information.
Your help would be most appreciated and I look forward to hearing from you.
PS - I will only be listing companies that are good to work for, but if you have had any problems with any company that could appear, please PM me and let me know, just in case someone else says they are ok.
Many thanks
:T PLEASE DO IT AND KEEP IT IN FIRST POSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :T0 -
I write reviews for:
https://www.dooyoo.co.uk
https://www.ciao.co.uk
https://www.ciao.com
if you take your time, produce good reviews and read other people reviews you can earn a fair amount you can even post the same review in all three places, just advise on the bottom of the review that it is cross posted, it just needs to be your own work.
I would be interested in additional earnings that do not involve silly survey sites that pay pittance.0 -

I'm more of the opinion that any such disclaimer should be in whatever profile area you are given... if you are interested in writing 'good' reviews, then keep everything not related to the review, out of the review. That's just a bugbear of mine, though.
You might want to try h e l i u m.com which offers a similar experience to Ciao, Dooyoo et al. I'm not entirely convinced it's for casual reviewers though, irrespective of how great the site staff tell me it is. There's an awful lot of "writers snobbery" that goes on there, often pushing style over content.0
