    Ive been with Onepoll for well over a year now. I have cashed out once, which was pretty quick to get to £40 but this time it is taking forever! I have been in the £30+ mark for months and seems like it will be next year before I get from £36 to £40.
    Most of the surveys these days are amazon vouchers or cash prizes but Ive never won any of them. It really is disappointing because Onepoll was one I recommended to others because the money was gained so fast and now its just as bad as Ciao.
    Hope it picks back up soon or Im going to lose patience after I cash out. :(

    I haven't had anything added all weekend. I'm sitting at £14 and hoped to cash in by Christmas but doesn't look like that's going to happen now as their definitely has been a downturn lately. :rolleyes:

    Hi all

    Just had a read of this thread, and with the exception of someone winning cheques and an phone, the people generallly seem to feel disgruntled and disappointment. £40 for free is £40 for free, but if people have been doing this for nearly a year (in some cases) and still haven't reached the £40 mark, 1) this sounds dodgy, as they know perfectly well the minimum cashout mark of £40, so conveniently keep you under that, so you're actually giving opinions for free, and 2) if this is not the case, then the amount of time it takes to accrue £40 doesn't seem worth it compared to some of the other free money making ideas on this site. How long does the process actually take? "months" isn't an accurate timeframe, as is that a few hours spent everyday for months? 2-5mins a day every other days for a few months?

    I guess the main question is, how many hours do you need to put into this for the £40, and is it worth it? Are any of the other similar sites better?

    Thanks guys :)
  • All,

    OnePoll seems to have 'disappeared'.

    A message appears when you log in as:

    "We are currently developing our site and you will be able to answer surveys for cash very soon.
    Once we are ready, we will send you an e-mail and you will be able to come back, log on and start giving your opinion on a wide range of topics in return for cash.
    We look forward to working with you very soon!
    Regards,
    The OnePoll Team."

    I have not been able to enter the site since the 5th November.

    Has anyone else experienced this? I've saved up £19.10 so far and have a horrible feeling I've been conned.....

    That's strange, it's still working fine for me! Hmm. Are you able to get into the 'contact' section and email them?
  • Dear AprilLady,

    Many thanks for your advice - I have just found what the problem was. When logging into onepoll.com it was re-routing me to onepoll.us for whatever reason.

    Just tried onepoll.com/join and I'm now back in and on the English site.

    Thanks!

    AAARRRGGGHHHH!!! I'm 10p from payout and there are two 5p surveys there but they both come up with a message saying they're closed! I've never seen this message until today!

    I've had 2 like that todat also, both of them had 22/3 as their expiry but when you click on they say they are closed! then they dissappear from your available surveys altogether :(
    Ah well I've only just joined so am hoping it's one of those things that get sorted quickly. But I'd be screaming too if I was sooo close to the mark.

    I've been on there for well over 12 months and I'm on £15. If I eventually get to £40, I'll be leaving. Yes, it's only ten minutes a day but some of the surveys are awkward and I've never won anything.
