How long does it normally take for vouchers to arrive? Am not keen on having a Paypal payment because of the fees.

I have a premier paypal account and that does take fees when money is received (I know it does from Ebay).
The FAQ's from Pinecone, which I am a member of as well, states this.....
Will I incur any fees if I opt to use my business/premier account to receive my PineCone Research payments?
The Business/Premier account can incur additional fees. To learn more about fees that may be associated with their use, click on this link.
So I'm not so sure that there wouldn't be fees.Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670 -
There's no fees with a personal paypal account for Lightspeed or Pinecone for that matter.
Can't you open a personal paypal account as well as your prem/business one? Just out of curiousity.0 -
I have a Premier Paypal account and have never had fees deducted from Lightspeed payments.0

Don't rely on these sites for a regular income. So far lightspeed have given 3 surveys but they are asking for a lot of personal details and I can see the site isn't even secure so i don't like that. they also want you to download software and this stuff can mess your computer up.
Global test market sent me 3 surveys in a short amount of time but they can phase you out of it at anytime deppending on the answers you give. So they get there research and you get nothing. I realise the reason the surveys are long is because its like there are 5 surveys cleverly wrapped up in one so if they cut you off after 20 questions they have already collected info that is still helpful to them. If you get paid you are lucky because you met all the right criteria frankly some of these are a waste of time. I feel that if you need to make like 50 to sixty a month look for other means as well. I will continue with the surveys because I am still new and see how it goes. Its a hit and miss. Give it a try if you want but be careful of how much info you are giving about yourself when signing up.0 -
Lightspeed - You dont HAVE to download the software. I havent and I still get regular surveys from them
GTM - You still get points for not qualifying, only 5 but it all adds up at the end of the day0 -
I've been with lightspeed for about 3 years and have had £75 in total in PAYPAL. I find in waxes and wanes sometimes several surveys a week, then a few weeks with nothing.
I did once access the account from overseas whilst visiting my parents, then got no offers for 3 months. When I contacted them it turns out it was because of the accessing from abroad. But it was quickly sorted out and didn't loose any points.0 -
had three surveys this week, spent ages filling out all the info and then wham bam survey already filled or do not meet citeria. They are really starting to wind me up!!!!!!!!!
