Freebies for completing Online Surveys (Juicy Brains Panel etc)

libra10

Just checked my Pure Profile balance £20.26. Have 3000 Mutual Points which I'm going to claim £20 cheque.
Also this week have received £5 Boots voucher from Valued Opinions
http://www.valuedopinions.co.uk/thanks.html
and £5 Amazon voucher from Juicy Brains
http://www.valuedopinions.co.uk/thanks.html
Received £15 Debenhams vouchers from Lightspeed, which I think were owing from before they started paying (not sure).
Also last Monday received £200 from 72 points website, which was a win with their surveys.
All in all not a bad week.

Quite right. I've often thought what pitiful rates they pay us ... But just look at how many people are doing surveys.

But that's all the more reason to put pressure on Lightspeed by withdrawing our co-operation until our "pay" is received. It would mean that commissioning companies might be more likely to consider other market research agencies.

Good idea, but of course not everyone doing Lightspeed surveys uses this forum (and/or other forums), so there would still be a large contingent completing the surveys. and hoping (eventually) to get paid.

True. Just a shame that lightspeed seem to be taking the p*ss out of us, and there being very little that we can do about it. (other than withdraw our participation but i feel that would probably hurt us more than it hurts them)...

I see MimiJane's point 100%, of course, but it is NOT hurting ME, grex, to stop doing their surveys!! I'm not getting paid for the ones I do, so why continue?

I remembered a while ago there were some email addy's for Lightspeed and just did a search and found the OP.

Apparently there's a better chance of a reply, maybe if all of us with a complaint email them enmass they may pull their finger out
Might be worth a try.

I've emailed them again this morning, pointing out that the "slight delay" referred to in the reply to me (see Post #244) is not "slight" since it is from 13 June!

I will keep you informed if they reply again.

In the meantime, I think Sparky's idea is a great one! I shall send them a copy of the correspondence between myself and "Lauren".

Got my £10 voucher today, too, following my rather cross email to them yesterday. So much for coincidence
