    ive just signed up to Valued Opinions, how many serveys do you typically a day/week and how much do they typically pay

    It varies, recently I have been receiving up to ten or so a week. For the past few months have been doing a daily (drinks) diary. This finishes sometime in June and should be worth quite a few points. Have forgotten how many. I received a £10 voucher from VO last month and have around £20 pending currently. Their payments are often between £1 to £2 per survey.

    Re Pinecone, used to receive at least one survey a month. However, since problems with their new software, havent received any further surveys. They seem to have given up on me.

    I like myvoice it just doesnt send too many surveys too often (maybe 2-3 a month) but you generally qualify for all and they are very generous!
    If anyone wants to join let me know!
  • I have been with YouGov for bout a year and only have £28! Have just signed up for onepoll today so hopefully will start getting surveys soon.

    My best so far is Valued Opinions (vouchers issued @£10).
    Then PureProfile (Cash issued @ £25).
    I used to do Lightspeed but their rewards were rubbish, but have just rejoined cos you can now get cash via paypal (cash issued @ £1)
    Have just joined Pinecone and have had one payout in vouchers so far. (£3 per survey)

    I use lightspeed, VO and Yougov. I find that Valued opinions pays the best. I have had quite a few big ones from them. Lightspeed used to be my favourite but it seems they are starting to offer less points for the majority of their surveys, and they are coming very infrequently. They have to be the cheekiest for kicking people out after taking a lot of info.

    Best survey I ever took was when I got stopped outside Ealing Broadway town hall and asked to complete a 10 minute food label questionnaire for a £10 shopping voucher.

    I use a few mentioned here. Does anyone know how you see how many entries into the big prize draw you have - on Opinion World ?

    I've decided I'm just going to join them all and re-evaluate after 3 months or so.

    Ive been using Valued Opinions for around 18 months and have made over £200 in Amazon vouchers, but recently (around 2-3 weeks) ive not had a single survey, i used to get around 10-15 a week and now they have all dried up.
    Anyone else had the same problem.

    I used to use Lightspeed, but got fed up of spending 10 mins into a survey and then being told, i did not quailfy, this is after i had given them bucket loads of info already !!!
    Wins this year.

    Hi People

    Just had £3 Luncheon Vouchers through from Pinecone. Never used these before, I've noticed on the back of the booklet it says where you can use them. Silly question... is it just food, the eating in type? or can I use them with my shopping in Tesco. Also can I use them together or can you only use one?

    Sorry if this is a thick question!!

    Thanks
    Sarah

    Let's be happy!!

    You can use the luncheon vouchers for grocery shopping at Tesco, Asda and most of the supermarkets.
