Hi

Crowdology charge about 8p for PayPal payments. Pinecone Research and Opinion Outpost don't charge anything. Not sure about any others as I mostly get paid by bank transfer or Amazon vouchers.

The survey website PanelOpinion.co.uk that I use don't charge for cashing out via Paypal and thanks god they don't! What else?

Anyway, for having sent money on Paypal before, I think Paypal don't charge anything to send money anyway!

Vivatic charge 50p for each paypal conversion.:eek:

Hmm, I got an email about a new survey site called Nectar Canvass where you can get nectar points for filling in surveys. I shop in sainsburys all the time so, hopefully this'll be handy.

I got this e-mail too about the same time as yourself. So far I've gotten about 150 points. Combined with using the nectar search bar (yes it sucks but it's 100 points), that's 250 points for me this month so far.

The survey site isn't as... developed as Valued Opinions though.

Thanks for your reply.Little confused by the figures though could you explain.Did you ever get paid out?Am I going to receive nothing from them .Has anybody else out there been paid by Inspired Opinions?

Hi Lizzyt19,

I find Inspired Opinions really good. They are generous with the points which soon add up to the voucher.

I have just checked my records and I received my Amazon Voucher on the same day I ordered it and that was on a Saturday, just a few weeks before you claimed yours.

That said, I haven't completed a survey since and I have noticed a lot of their surveys are running through other survey sites recently, so I don't know if they are experiencing problems at the moment.

Sorry I can't be of more help.:)

Hi

Went to cash my valued opinions for Amazon vouchers this evening to discover they are not available. What a shock as that was where my Xmas shopping was going to be done.:eek:

Does anyone know if this happens often and how long it takes to resolved. The website said they are working on it

Yup, happens occasionally. They should be back by the end of this month apparently.

Hi,

I've been doing online surveys for a number of years and am registered with several different companies. One company I've been registered with for a fairly long time is Toluna Surveys (formally Ciao Surveys). I've struggled to gain many points with Toluna, as the surveys often screenout, anyway after many, many months of perseverance I finally gained enough points to cash in a reward - a £15 love to shop voucher.

I applied for the voucher in August, in early September my account listed the voucher as 'processed'. I waited for several weeks - and I have to confess totally forgot about the voucher until a few weeks ago. I then realised I still hadn't received it so contacted Toluna. They told me that the voucher had been dispatched in September and to check with the post office if they had mail for me - I have and they haven't! So I got back in touch.

Finally after 2 weeks Toluna got back to me today with this message:

Dear Lynn,

Thank you for writing to us. As we have previously explained, the voucher was dispatched at the address registered in your account at the moment of the request.

Please note that according to our terms and conditions, " If you redeem your Points with paper vouchers, Toluna will send the paper voucher to the mailing address you provided to us in your online registration form. Toluna will only mail one paper voucher. If you do not receive the paper voucher and we reasonably determine that you are entitled to a replacement, such replacement voucher will be an electronic one."

We did not receive any returns from our supplier.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Best regards,
Jennifer Maslow

Firstly my name is not Lynn - or even vaguely Lynn
Secondly, I'm confused as to the response - if the terms and conditions state they will replace the voucher why they have not done so.
