Cash for surveys

YouGov have been acclaimed as one of the most accurate polling companies, as well as being one

of the most quoted research companies in the country, so by joining our panel you really can have

your views heard . Panel members are sent regular surveys on a whole host of topics from politics

to brands, finance to shopping, and we really do want to hear your views on these.

What’s in it for you?

Every time you complete a paid survey we receive at least 50p into your YouGov account, and when

this account reaches £50 you will be sent a cheque, as well as chances to win other occasional cash

prizes.

Don't expect fast returns it can take a while to get to fifty pounds but if you enjoy filling in surveys

like me, you have nothing to lose.

    Please see notice above. You know full well there is a referral forum as you posted your yougov in there

    Don't post links for personal gain. Except in the referrers section and always declare any interest.

    As someone who has just left yougov......i can honestly say unless your prepared to take well over a year or more to get to the £50 limit i wouldnt bother.

    I think it took me nearly 2 years to get to it, and even then it took them 3 months to post out the cheque after i had to keep chasing up.

    Valued Opinions and Lightspeed are probably 2 of the better companies

    I agree it takes a long time took me 18 months and I did every survey possible. Never again hard work for £50

    unfortunately, I have to agree with the last two posters - YouGov are not one of the best. I've been with them nearly 2 years and I'm waaaay off target to get my cheque - saying that, I'd heard nothing from them in a while (a while is close to 6 months) so I deleted myself...tns and ipsos are the best - and lightspeed seem to be getting worse on a weekly basis..but that's another infuriating story....
    All these years since I left school and I've never once had to use Algebra
