Survey sites guide discussion

What is the best survey site to get cash rather than points as i like to see my amounts going up like onepoll :-) ?

EndlessStruggle

My favorites in order are Pinecone, Mysurvey, Vivatic, Toluna.

Worst ones are WH Surveys done about £10 worth of surveys for them and not been credited for any of them, wrote to customer services and heard nothing! Surveyhead too!

Will look into others as want to get lots of stuff together for Christmas soon

Apologies if I have missed this.....however I can't see a reference here to "Surveys.co.uk" I thought going by the domain name they would have been on the go a while, only I've bumped into them twice today and where as there was a time I would fill in more or less any survey since reading the forums here I am alot more concious of where to spend my time.

Please don't be too harsh with me!!
Thanks

Has anyone had problems with surveyhead recently? I've got enough to cash out a paypal payment ~ I have £15.62 and only need £15.20 for a payment. However, I cannot get the page to show the "Proceed to checkout" box. This only shows for the lower amount of £6.08 and ONLY for a shoebuy.co.uk voucher.

I want to close this account as it's taken forever to reach the cash threshold :mad:

Anyone had any experience with toluna they seem to give you plenty of surveys but in my case anyway i have only managed to complete 1 but had many where i have reached around 50% only to be told i dont qualify Sounds to me as though what they are really doing is getting the answers they want then saying you are not eligaable and of course they then dont have to pay out or am i just being a cynic ?

I've been with Toluna for years. They send out lots of survey invites and it's pot luck whether you qualify. That said if your profile is up to date then you stand a better chance of getting more surveys that you'll be able to complete. Also fill in the sponsored polls to get quick points. The only drawback with them is that they take forever to send your rewards out. They say about 8-10 weeks but it can be longer. But they do always pay out in the end.

There seems to be an infinite amount of surveys on Toluna these days, especially with these new mini ones which often convert into longer ones if you fit the criteria.

To answer your question. I don't have time to continually do them, but I get 1 £15 voucher about every 2-3 months

A good tip with Toluna is that if they send you a survey link and you eventually get screened out, try the link again because it will then try to find other surveys for you. You can probably do this a couple of times until you find one that you want. If you don't want the one offered, try again. Eg. I won't spend 30 mins for 1800 points, but clicking the link again offered me 4000 points for 20 mins etc.

Also I know a lot of people complain about Toluna with the slow payment, but you need to look at it as a sort of long term gain. At any one time I tend to have about 3 vouchers waiting payment (roughly each working about a month apart) and it normally works out that as one is paid, I have enough points to claim for the next one. So roughly I get about £15 per month in Amazon vouchers from Toluna.

That's because it's not a survey site, it is a site with affiliate links to survey sites. it makes it's money when people use it's links to join survey sites.

Hi all,

I've just joined MSE recently, and have signed up today for 2 survey sites to give them a go (Valued Opinions and Opinion World) after reading some recommendations from this site.

Sorry but I'm just a bit unclear still whether the site(s) will email me with every new survey oportunity, or whether it's down to me to go on every day to see if new surveys exist ?

Can anyone advise ?

Thanks
