    I just tried to refer someone but on the referal page is the msg:
    Simply complete the form below to invite a friend

    At the moment it is not possible to invite new people to the panel.

    It seems to be too good to be true doesn't it mrsyorkie. Did you enter all your items separately to get that many points or do you get loads of points if you enter them all of the same screen IYKWIM. You would wonder how they could make any money from this.

  • Just got my first £50 from yougov. I joined in Nov 2004!!!!!!!!!!! Also £63-24 from Ciao, £10 from valuedopininions with another £10 pending. £20 from Saros, £40 from ipsos, and £20 from Test and vote. This has been a really good spell for me I have got through loads of surveys and rarely got the dreaded "your profile doesn't fit our requirements" I have also had a really good couple of months on the testing product front had juice, shampoo, conditioner, coffee, dog food, washing up liquid and cheese slices.
    Bet I get bog all for ages now though!!
    The victims we know so well
    They shine in your eyes
    When they kiss and tell
    Strange places we never see
    But you're always there

    I think so. There's a discussion about it in the referrals board and someone received an email saying there are problems with certain accounts. I'm now wondering if they think i've made up purchases, which i haven't. I've been on a good, long needed shop getting ready for christmas, even though i am skint and just entered what i bought. I've emailed them anyways.

    I had to email them too - but just because their choice of options for dvd rental and cinema visits are poor. If your film isn't there it won't let you type in the proper title you just have to put the nearest option in!

    Just got this email. I am seriously mad as i did not abuse the system, i just tried to get some xmas shopping in early and recorded my purchases! Good job i ordered my voucher when i did, but i had another one i was going to redeem today!

    Consumer Pulse is a panel designed to measure the shopping habits of the
    UK population, and to help a number of high street retailers and
    manufacturers better tailor their offering to their consumer needs.
    Therefore the quality of the data we receive is key to us.

    Having received a large volume of recruits in the last week, we have
    been monitoring purchasing levels against existing data. A number of
    people have recorded levels of purchasing that are markedly above what
    we would expect to see in such a time span.

    Our analysis shows that you are one of these people, and we have taken
    the decision to close your account immediately. This does not mean we
    don't believe your purchasing, simply that based on your purchasing so
    far we don't feel you truly represent the average shopper.

    You have already redeemed a voucher from our rewards area, which we
    consider as recognition for the purchasing you have already entered, so
    your account is now completely closed, and you will not be able to
    access it.

    Thank you for the interest shown in Consumer Pulse.
