    Ok so this is really weird, i just finished a survey that i was screened out of, it was to do with what sort of accounts you have with banks/building societys.

    Now whats strange is after i was screened out, i was taken to a page with a blue hyperlink, that stated if page did not take me back to valued opinons homepage to click here.

    So i'm starting to think perhaps the two sites are linked in some way.

    I think they farm surveys out to one another, I have had this before, plus Juicy Brains ones (for 75p as opposed to the £1 they used to pay per survey) via Valued Opinions and Lightspeed via Toluna etc.

  • has anyone realised tht we are being paid alot less points than what we used to?
    Last year id do a 20 minute survey for 120 points now ive been getting ones that last 25minutes for 40-50 points.
    This is beginning to be a joke.

  • I do lightspeed too - I allow my points to build upto 2875 points which gets me £25 paid into my paypal account. I can then use it to buy something or transfer it into my bank account (paypal takes 25p for doing that). It normally takes 5-7 days to transfer to bank account.
    Must say I've done that twice and have never had any problems with them.:j

    Yes, I've noticed this too. I used to get 110 points for doing a 20 minute survey and now it is reduced to 80 points. I'm sure the "credit crunch" has affected all of the market research sector, because many businesses are having to reduce their marketing and development budgets.

    I have been a member of many online survey sites for over 2 years and I used to always receive many survey invites from Valued Opinions and GlobalTestMarket in particular. In the last couple of months however, survey invites from these two nice little earners have reduced significantly. Similarly Toluna have (yet again) reduced the number of points they reward you with.

    I think that for 2009, if you want to continue to make good money and earn rewards from survey sites, you really have to spread you net out and look for more survey opportunities elsewhere. This is certainly what I will be doing among other things!

    It won't let me sign up for some reason - saying they can't verify my address.

    Sorted it out anyway - signed up at my parents' address.
