I have been reading testimonials from people using an online survey site with interest
However, I am reluctant to pay the registration fee to find out if it's scam or genuine.
Has anyone else got experience of paid onlline surveys?
Thanks in advance

Yes - and I've never paid a fee to join them!
If you want to do surveys, try google or search this site, and you can find companies to apply to for free.Here I go again on my own....0 -
Hi
The ones you pay for, as far as I can remember, just give you a long list of survey companies to send your details to.
As Becles says, just find them yourself for free0 -
i have been doing online surveys for a few months and have never paid a fee.
I get paid in cheques, vouchers and points systems.
as Becles says try a search to find ones that are free to join
paying a fee sounds like a scam to me

I have been doing surveys for well over a year - I have never received anything. One of them (cant remember which one) you have to total £25 before they send a cheque and I still haven't got there yet?0 -
Surveys are generally a slow process but I have one which I get amazon vouchers off and have just signed up to one which pays money0

You Gov - cash
Test & Vote - amazon
Ive had pay outs from all of these no problemsThanks to everyone who posts comps :T0 -
I have done them for about 2 years now and had about 6 cinema vouchers and roughly 10 high street vouchers, and 120.00 cash via paypal (although this was made up of a 50.00 survey which still to this day i dont know how i got through it and answered the questions as it was a medical one.....LOL) To be honest you will never MAKE money from them just a bit of fun if you do have 15 mins free to sit and answer a load of questions to earn 80p. You need to do them on a regular basis or they dont send them, hense lots of work for little but is fun!!0

I use Ciao and have been paid about £10 for two years, I hate it when they send you questionnaires that aren't relevant to you and you answer about 20 quuestions and then they say, 'sorry you are not suitable for this questionnaire.'
I have been with valued oppinions for about 6 weeks and clocked up £3.50
Not the best I suppsoeIF I HAVE BEEN OF USE TO YOU, THEN PLEASE CLICK THAT THANKS BUTTON0
